Chief Sealth High School should be neither expected nor required to do anything more than Eastside Catholic High School did, namely, fire Mr. Willis and his staff. It's high time that Eastside Catholic step out of the Confessional: what did you know (about your own Willis basketball program) and when did you know it? And, by the way, which schools quietly put the squeeze on you?

Let us also train our spotlight on the two principals who co-signed the complaint against Chief Sealth, the principals of Bishop Blanchet High School and of Lakeside High School. Presumably, each man weighed carefully his action, including Jesus' words, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone," and our 20th century counsel, "What goes around, comes around." Having satisfied themselves as to the purity of their own schools, each man then lost clarity of purpose and failed to include Coach Willis' two-year tenure at Eastside Catholic in their written complaint. So much for selective stone throwing.

Finally, now that the otherwise reputable "Sideline Smitty" of the Seattle Times has placed his podium in the gutter, there is nothing more that the journalistic fraternity can contribute to the matter. Let us not be naive, however - there is still plenty of dirt to go around the Metro League.
