These girls will be playing in a gym, not outside on some leaf covered piece of ground.

It initially says 1,000 of 250,000 but later mentions the 3 percent of 247,331. It is correct that 1,000 are fradulent...that is of the 3 percent sample are which is 7,420.

You read the story again.

What's this with the "right-hand curve" in the fifth paragraph of the story? Why not right-elbow or right-knee curve? The use of the word "hand" is useless and stupid.

This is exactly the point my wife and I discussed as soon as some details were available. There is no way we would ever not know if our child was having swimming in PE...especially if they didn't know how to swim. Or maybe these parents didn't even now that.

In fact I basically agree with what they did, but they should have gone farther. Like Hectic says suspension is too good for them, they should most definitely have been booted from the team. It is still totally a non-story. Oh its a story in Elma, but not for most of the state. To be consistent in their reporting I now expect KOMO to give the same coverage to every high school athlete in Western Washington who gets suspended from their team for breaking the athletic code.

What a waste of KOMO resources to send a reporter and camera person to Elma. And what a waste of time on tonight's news. Players are suspended in various sports quite frequently. Are you goihg to snoop out all of them from now on in Western Washington "make them news." Shame on KOMO. (And I don't live in Elma, in fact Eastern Washington.)
