[Lord Grantham]

I

This is getting ridiculous. I've been attending DeSales sporting events for the past 10 years. My son played on the two championship teams. He was all state in wrestling. Has the crowd at DeSales changed over the last 3-4 years? Yes they have. Has it been a good change? No. It hasn't. Are there a few PARENTS out of control? Yes there are.
DeSales , and our fans at one point had a great reputation. Our athletes played hard but win or lose shook every hand. We always had great respect from the opposing fanbase. example I'll give is Mayfield. Had a tough semi state game with them. We fell short. They beat us. Our guys shook their hand wished them luck. A few months later tornadoes hit Mayfield. the DeSales family's along with the football team kicked in to collect food and water and even delivered it. Mayfield fans with knowledge can tell you more.
To see someone on this board insinuate that you might need to bring a weapon makes me wonder what his real problem is.
As a LEO I would highly disregard that advice. If you feel that need. Don't come. Will there be some obnoxious parents who only care about their kid and not the team there yelling? Yes there will. The sad part of all of this is it's not the kids. It's the adults. Adults are usually and sadly the ones who ruin youth leagues, high school sports, and etc.
The Belfry fans will be welcomed. There are alot of things to do around DeSales. Churchill Downs is less than 15 min away.

I agree that my suggesting Belfry “bring a weapon” was hyperbole and over the top. I retract it.

The rest of my statements are factual. Is there anyone at Desales who denies they occurred? Given what you know, what would be harmed by putting Belfry on the far sideline?
