This body piercing crap has gone too far.

I always hated javelin catching duty.

Oh, then I don't need to feel bad about all them cowboys killed by Indians with spears, or for all those brits dying in battle with Zulus.

There were coaches supervising the practice when both incidents occurred.

Define "supervising".

Not supervising very well, obviously.

"It's not fun to see one of your friends on the ground with a javelin through his chest," said Brent Hopkins, student.

Depends on the crowd you're running in and how much beer they've had to drink.

Kick ball is banned yet kids are permitted to throw javelins.

Most high schools have eliminated javelin throwing from their track program.

We had an assistant coach for West Chester University in Pa hit by a student practicing the hammer throw. This was last week. The fencing was not adequate. The coach was airlifted to Univ of Penn with serious injuries. It caved in her face.
She has a trach and is improving slowly.

Throwing a javelin is child's play. Throwing a javelina, now that's a sport!!

Kalama is on the Columbia, not the Sound. KIRO must think anything south of Tacoma is the South Sound...
