Why are YOU here?

Why are YOU here?

I am here to learn.

I ask questions after class, you're too busy coaching on the football field, throwing dirt and clods of grass.

Why are YOU here?

You, as a teacher, get your paycheck, but I, as a student, leave your classes as a confused wreck.

Why are YOU here?

You financially support the new weight room, but can't see that academically, our school is reaching its' doom.

Why are YOU here?

Are you here because you couldn't make it in the pros? Just because you didn't live your dreams doesn't mean you need to step on your student's toes.

Why are YOU here?

You pop in a movie and expect it to teach us, while you sit in the corner planning your weekend on a party bus.

Why are YOU here?

You have proven that you are here to watch your student's do anything BUT learn.

It's a good thing I know which bridges to cross and which to burn.
