Can't they focus their investigative reporting efforts on City Hall or something?

It's the ol' SWC! All the big boys are turning each other in.

Why don't they go down to Austin and see if they can expose some of the political funny-business going on down there?

Junior, click the link on this story. The one you posted was about Southlake Carroll. Now they are going after Trinity.

So what exactly was wrong with their Southlake Carroll story?
The kid was obviously moved around each school year for athletic reasons.
They didn't make anything up. They spent the time and effort to do the story right and knew it would gain people's attention.
That's what happens when you have the goods.

Most of the complaining was the timing of it. They had all of the evidence they needed in July, so why wait until 2 days before the first game to go public with it? That wasn't exactly being fair to the school, or the kid (who may have not known the rules).

Apologies. Thought it was the same one. Must be a slow week for them if all they have time to do is go after high schools.
