So I worked a camp this past weekend for the baseball team. High school recruiting camp, checking out some prospects from a couple years down the road and what not. Pretty standard stuff.
One of the coaches called me yesterday saying that I need to fill out some forms online in order to get payed for working it. I've worked dozens of these camps before, but this is the first of this year so I figured there must have been some new camp policies implemented by the Athletics Department. Both of these forms were online through the university. The first one was no problem, basically just a background check thing. The second form was about camp policies and codes of conduct fun stuff. One of the sections discussed appropriate and inappropriate ways to interact with the campers. I just had to write about this to shed some light into the fallout of the whole Joe Pa/Penn St. thing. Get a load of these policies:

I got to this section and laughed out loud. Now, I completely understand where they are coming from and why this is needed, but come on! Really?! I know that Mizzou is a complete mess and the laughing stock of the country, but the people here are at least decent enough to know this stuff. No kissing campers? No holding hands with them? No sexual jokes or secrets? I think everyone understands that. If they don't, they probably still work at Penn St.
Unreal stuff from Mizzou Athletics.
Obligatory:

PS - Great first episode of SP Season 20. Never would have thought they would bring back Sheeet Sandwich vs. Giant Douche. Definitely didn't see that ending coming either. Can't wait to see what else they have in store the rest of the season.
