SUBMITTED BY: SAHIL KAPOOR, LINDENHURST HIGH SCHOOL

Every athlete or coach does his/ her best to win, to earn awards and to be famous. Some people might go farther than they should to achieve this goal. Not only in little leagues or school teams do people cheat, but also in professional leagues. There have been many cases where people have cheated to get what they strived for. Does this mean they should be stripped of their awards? What if it was the coach’s fault and not the athletes? Who should be penalized for it? This year in the NFL, it has been alleged that the Patriots cheated their way into the Super Bowl. They deflated the footballs so it was easier for the quarterbacks and the running backs to hold and the receivers to catch. Every team member had to

have noticed the difference in the footballs, but yet no one did anything. An even bigger surprise is that the coach and quarterback denied any knowledge of it. Did they get what they wanted? Yes. The Patriots cheated their way into winning the Super Bowl. This is not the first time they have cheated to win the Super Bowl. First it was “Spy-Gate”; now it’s Deflate-Gate. However, they weren’t penalized for their actions. They have kept their titles and enjoyed victory parades. Yet, in the case with the Jackie Robinson West team, all the Little League athletes were stripped of their title. In that situation, the team “was stripped of its national title after an investigation revealed that team officials had falsified area boundaries. They did this

to add ineligible players to the roster.” (Newsday) In this case, the athletes couldn’t possibly have been aware of the fact that what the team officials did was illegal. Yet all their hard work had been for nothing. Every win they had was taken away from them. So, why were these children stripped of their titles, but the Patriots got to keep their wins? The Patriots’ wins were the biggest accomplishment in the football industry. Why is it that the little leagues have been stripped of their title but the professional leagues haven’t? Even though cheating in the first place isn’t right, should the athletes be punished if it wasn’t their fault? That’s your opinion to decide.

Buddies By: Jamie Lynn Ryan On February 16th, my “half-birthday,” I decided the time was right to adopt another fish to join the family. As of this writing, “Buddy” – as I dubbed my aqua-colored delta-fin betta fish – is adjusting quite nicely to life in his betta bowl. He swims, he ﬂoats, he eats… although not when I’m in the vicinity. I literally found myself crouching down out of sight to see if he was, in fact, eating. Most fish can’t wait for that first ﬂake to drop; Buddy, not so much. Perhaps he’s just self-conscious. But I finally caught him in the act, sucking down a betta pellet and – get

this – chewing it thoroughly. I know, I know… fish don’t have teeth. But his motions mimicked a dog munching on a treat, breaking it down bit by bit until he had fully digested his dinner. That’s my Buddy, pretty and quirky and providing some of the best entertainment this side of the aquarium since my dearly departed finned friends, Harry and Harvey. By all accounts, bettas have a much more substantial lifespan than your average goldfish, so let’s hope Buddy hangs in for a while. Of course, I suppose he could already be pushing 3 years old as we speak, so his longevity remains to be seen. For me, the biggest test will

be the weekly water change / “bath time” process, that unwelcome disturbance of fishbowl tranquility that all marine life seems to detest. Unfortunately for Buddy, he has no shrubbery or decorative toys to hide behind – yet. We’ll see if I can find something appropriate for his little underwater kingdom. For now, he’ll just have to deal with being on full display for all to see. Hopefully, Buddy will still be ﬂitting around come August 16th, and we can celebrate his “half-birthday” along with my “full” one. In any case, he now has a column to officially commemorate his arrival. Just what every fish wants.

Chilly Study

Of course, Betty and Wilma aren’t their real names; we’ll never know their names. Wilma and Betty weren’t wearing tags and they weren’t microchipped. They simply had to fend for themselves. Wilma is a sweet, sassy Chocolate Lab; and best friend, Betty, is a lively and loveable Black Lab. These wonderful dogs are truly inseparable. Their kennels are right next to each other at Little Shelter, but of course, that’s not close enough. These girls whine and cry for each other and are just ecstatic when then have the opportunity to play together. Betty and Wilma are happy-go-lucky and full of energy. They love people, adore each other and are a pleasure to be with. Because these ladies are so attached, Little Shelter is looking for a family to adopt both of them.
