A five-year boy in Oklahoma wore a University of Michigan shirt to school
and was forced to turn the shirt inside out.
It seems that the Oklahoma City public school district has a policy
against wearing shirts that promote any schools other than Oklahoma schools. Apparently this may stem from some
gang-issues. Seriously though!?! A five-year wearing a Big-House t-shirt is
probably not much of a threat to society, yet.
I thought that kind of stuff only
went on in that state that is a four-letter word (O***). There is a ray of sunshine to this story, however. Dave Brandon, the Michigan
Athletic Director, has offered young Cooper Barton tickets to an upcoming home
Michigan game. This kind of rule is probably something that the school district should look at changing (or at least revising) so that it is more realistic. Anyway, here's hoping to little Cooper continuing to "Hail to the Victors" and wearing his Maize and Blue shirts proudly.
