The North Plainfield players said they were so traumatized that their coach had to console them.
“There’s a few tears shed in the locker room,” Valley said.


So traumatized...tears shed. What a bunch of sissies.

Real players would have left that locker room with one purpose..Beat that other Team...

Now, with so much sensitivity, they cry and ask for consoling.

Boo Hoo

New Jersey (and Summit) is Democratic? Why do you try to twist this situation into an attack on Democrats?

It's very ironic that just yesterday I was telling my wife about how nice a town Summit is. I have several Latino friends up there. Guess it goes to show you that you just never know what's lurking below the surface.

I wonder how many bananas were collected?

The right thing to do would be to donate them to a food bank.

Now THAT would have made a huge impact, instead of whining about racism.

The other side would have really been shut up firmly with that sort of response.

But noooooo - let's wimp and whine about racism.

It won't end until people step up and actually do something to make it irrelevant.

They need to get out there and beat up a few girls. That'll fix 'em.

Why, I bet some of your best friends are "Latino".

Some people want to turn this into a partisan issue for the benefit of their own agenda.

Newsflash, everyone (especially everyone here) wants to turn everything in a partisan issue for the benefit of their own agenda. Don't act like that's not why you and everyone else is wasting time in here.
