Obama's High School First In SI Survey. No Mention Of Ridgemont High
Barack Obama's high school, Punahou of Hawaii, was recently chosen as the school with the top athletic program in the nation by Sports Illustrated. This angered Hillary Clinton, who attended Maine East High in Parkridge, Ill., and John McCain, who was educated through oral tradition and cave drawin...
Hey Kids! It's ESPN Rise! (Kill Me Now)
Those old enough to remember the launch of Sports Illustrated For Kids know what fun is in store for America with ESPN's newest venture, ESPN Rise. It's ESPN's attempt to go after the high school demographic with content — including a magazine, programming events and even a presence on SportsCenter...
Moons Over My Prom-Y
For those reading who are teachers, it is that time of the year to volunteer your chaperoning services to one or more of your school's proms. There, your job is to make sure no one's hands fall below the belt line for illegal slow-dance fondling or, you know, make sure no students are having babies ...
Eli: Cover Boy?
For its top selling Madden NFL franchise, Electronic Arts Tiburon typically selects an electrifying player who epitomizes the furious intensity of NFL action, while appealing to average young football fan....
Team Building In Ohio
We played freshman football in high school, though we were the third-string split end on a team that never ran any pass plays. (In practice, we were constantly told to "go downfield, find the safety and try to block him.") We are glad we were in relatively sedate Mattoon playing football rather than...
Fernley Coach May Lose Job Over Hart Situation
Even more fallout from the bizarre Kevin Hart puts-a-Cal-hat-on signing day sham: The Fernely High School fraudster's coach, Mark Hodges, may lose his job....
Coach Jim Rackley Has No Off Switch
Somewhere, Erin Andrews, Bonnie Bernstein and Suzy Kolber are watching this, and they're remembering the early days, back before their cushy current gigs, back when they had to interview people who weren't used to being on television and, in fact, thought they were still in the locker room. You had ...

Good Game ... Good Game ... Good Game ... Owwwww!
The postgame handshake is one of amateur sports' grandest rituals, with combatants coming together to congratulate each other on a contest well played. It's also a great time, if you're a jerk, to play pranks, particularly ones involving knives....
Those Crazy Kids And Their Flying Machines
If they suspended the kid who spelled out "We Suck" in the opposing team's cheering section, we can't imagine what they'll do to a North Carolina student who almost crashed a plane into his home football stadium on a dare....
High School Football: Gayer Than Gay?
This isn't easy to say so we're just going to say it: According to a new survey, one third of former high school football players have had sexual relations with other men. That's according to a new study to be published in the Journal of Sex Roles, which I totally just read by accident, and that's t...
Free Garchar!
Garchar organized the above placard prank, forcing the rival school's fans to spell out "WE SUCK" unknowingly, and we have to say, if we were a 17-year-old high school senior, that would have been the highlight of our lives. Unfortunately, the school didn't find it as funny; he was suspended for it....
Miss Teen South Carolina Has Discovered The Map To Our Hearts

Now, here's more of Miss Teen South Carolina Lau...

Nothing's Scarier Than Texas High School Football
It's about that time of day when we remind you just how terrifying Texas high school football is. This is from Southlake Carroll High School near Dallas/Ft. Worth, where certain fans camped out all night just to pay $90 seat licenses (that doesn't even count the tickets) for four high school footbal...
