For Vaping?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kicked off the wrestling team for “vaping”
Yeah, not “raping” – “vaping.”
Pretty dog-gone harsh and downright cruel
To us spectators.
Why should we fans be punished for such a simple “offense”?
“Vaping”?  Is that such a crime?
How about: Foul language? Disrespect of teachers? Tardiness? Cheating?
What punishments for such BAD behavior?
But . . . no more wrestling: denying us fans some good, well-anticipated winter entertainment?!?!?
Oh, we had longed through the winter for this time of spectator ecstasy!  Why do WE get punished?
No alternative punishment?  Scrub some floors?  (I bet the offender would submit to a good paddling!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
