>> Are you sure that's true?

Okay. A "weak positive correlation". Do you have any idea what that means? A "weak positive correlation" is happenstance. Regardless of how someone non-statistician inteprets it.


First, in your original argument, you didn't even cop to a "weak positive correlation". You said there was no correlation.

Secondly, knowing how your mind works, I gave you three other links that refute your supposition. It would appear your argument does not hold water yet you refuse to concede the obvious.

So let me remind you that the GOP is fond of turning the world upside down in order to prove its point............WMDs, al Qa'ida links etc. You have done it again with the schools.

So lets clarify the argument, rich schools turn out better students both academically and athletically than poor schools. That's because they have more resources at their disposal. That further means that rich students have an inherent advantage over poor students. For that reason and many others, we established AA......in order to level the playing field.

Now I know that p*sses the hell out of you all because you like feeling superior and don't want the playing field to be leveled. However, that's the reality so deal with it.

And that goes for you too Harris with your BS Newsmax links. You people are becoming fringe and if you aren't careful, you will fall off the edge.

Have a good one!
