first of all i'm sure they signed some type of agreement at the beginning of the season agreeing to the school policy regarding substance abuse and usually that they won't use them is included. so if they didn't adhere to one signed document what makes you think they'd adhere to another?

i think you are thinking like an adult would think in that situation. when you say "wrestling is to important for several of them involved" that statement assumes they thought of the consequences before they acted as a responsible adult would do. we aren't dealing with adults here. i don't believe they considered the consequences before they acted, had they considered the consequences before they acted i believe at least some of them wouldn't have done it given what the consequences are. do you really think nathan furches thought all of this was worth it? i mean, i know how most high school kids think and i flat out do not believe that the thought process was, "well, if we get caught we're only out for a week so lets just do it anyways because even if we do get caught, hey its worth it for the good time." i mean, someone used speeding as an example, when you speed you don't think about how much the ticket would cost you. you think about how many people speed and don't get caught.
