Gut the Goths!

[CCA Gymnasium; Monday, March 19 2007; 5:15PM] The CCA Visigoths vs CCA Falcons game, rescheduled to today due to snow last Friday, has yielded exciting results. Much of the school was in attendance, along with many parents and students from other schools. So many, in fact, that the stage was completely full and the soda machine nearly empty, except for real juice and probably water. Younger students filled the stairways and sidelines screeching as loudly as possible (I think I can hear from both ears now). Older students were seen yelling loudly and attempting to corrupt grammar school students into chanting “Gut the Goths!” throughout the game. Our Board President was seen under cover of the Falcons mascot dancing around during the final quarter of the game and for some time afterwards.


As this was a paid-admission athletic event (“Admission: $2, Benefits the boys' basketball program”), regulations prohibit us unofficial journalists from releasing official statistics, including final score. Don't believe me? Just check the back of any professional sports admission ticket. Anyway, legal technicalities aside, the Falcons were ahead for much of the game and did beat the Visigoths in the end. This, of course, means the students will get a prize. A certain prize for the first time in CCA history, actually.


“There will be a day without uniforms” Dr. Perrin was overheard saying after the Visigoths' defeat. As of press time, we do not know what this will entail. However, students are already planning what to wear on the so-called “Dress Down Day”. A student who was interviewed stated that he will “wear a suit on the dress-down day.” Your author finds this to be very dumb (VD, not to be confused with Valedictorian) and agrees with others will no doubt be wearing “a pair of jeans, sneakers, and a cool tee-shirt” or quite possibly the 'classic' CCA uniform, before the radical changes. Whatever you do, enjoy your dress down day. Goooo Falcons!

So I take the second to last paragraph to mean, "Yeah, I forget the final score, so um, yeah..."
You can't trick me - I see through your bluff that none of us readers will happen to be in possession of a "professional sports admission ticket". Ahh, the dangers of a classical education.. :-P
