    Those boys will probably only play football for the rest of their highschool career, but you gave them a skill set they can use and improve on for the rest of their lives. The ability to gain strength is useful in all aspects of life.

    Between the former football coach and the headmaster who called you in to ream you, it appears you landed in a real nest of vipers.

    That said, your dedication to the students as well as your teaching in the classroom and your efforts in the gym speak well of you. Perhaps you could offer to spot the headmaster on the bench some time and then sneak on an extra pair of 25s on each end when he wasn't looking between sets.

    May I inquire as to what has happened here? Why the Orwellian reference? I thought it was a good article.
