ESPN article is posted

 

The Internet story that corresponds to Sunday's "Outside the Lines" segment has now been posted onto the ESPN web site. The article was written by John Barr, who is also the reporter that came out for the "Outside the Lines" segment.

The beginning of the article focuses on the environment at Foothill High School, and it certainly doesn't mince words about the situation in our classrooms. From my perspective, the article is a little overly dramatic at times - for example, the "unused" books are actually "new" books and the most obvious aspect of the "gang presence" at our school is our strict dress code. Despite the dramatics, the only inaccuracy in the story is the date of my termination from BroadVision (although I ended my software engineering career in March, 2005, I left BroadVision in July, 2002, at a time when they still had a domestic engineering department).

Most importantly, though, the article shows how Fantasy Football can be a big assistance to math classes across the country and it is a very compelling read:
