Welcome to “Cheers and Jeers,” a section of The Prowler where staff members share what really grinds their gears. Here you will find unprecedented opinions, served hot and fresh every two weeks.
Cheers
Cheers to the success of Fayette-Coweta Kickoff Classic. Sandy Creek’s 24-3 win over Northgate and Starr’s Mill’s 28-14 win over Newnan gave Fayette County teams a 2-1 win. East Coweta defeated Whitewater 41-24.
Cheers to nearly a month of the school year done. Only 9 more to go!
Cheers to Panera’s free coffee for a month subscriptions. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve stopped by before school for free coffee. The best pick me up!
Cheers to the Pfizer vaccine being FDA approved. Here’s to hoping that more people continue to get vaccinated or take the proper precautions, so we can get back to normal.
Cheers to all the new clubs at Starr’s Mill. It is great that the students are getting opportunities to explore their passions. I’m personally most excited for the birdwatching club.
Jeers
Jeers to the new mask mandate. I’m beyond excited to cover my face in fabric again because our school district can’t just go red or hybrid for two weeks, especially after tons of students have been traveling all summer.
Jeers to the fact that we have to wear masks and social distance in school, but when it comes to a football game with tons of people packed together for hours, we have absolutely no issues with everything being wide open.
Jeers to hot drinks that are too hot to drink. Come on, people. What in the world is the point of a drink that will burn your taste buds off?
Jeers to journalism adviser Justin Spencer not wearing his Allen Iverson 76ers jersey. In the journalism classroom for the past three years Spencer has worn a jersey to encourage us to “Trust the Process,” but we have yet to see it this school year.
