Bullard has circle jerks, CW has cheats

I didn’t think the whole Clovis West SAT scandal had any legs to it. I was surprised to see it on the front page of the Bee. In the sports section? Yes, I get that, since they were kids on the soccer team. But that’s it, why would it go further?

Like most times, my dumbass is wrong.

Besides The Bee’s coverage, newscasts led with the story, Fresno’s top blogger - Jarah - has written about it, and Fresno Radio King – Ray Appleton - spent his whole two hours jawin' about it, Friday.

To me, the reason this scandal gets the play that it does is because the students are from Clovis West High School.

CW is considered Fresno’s premier High School. It's where Bullard, Hoover and Fresno High area sellouts bring their kids. Where scared whitey parents think their children will get into less trouble so they’ll have to do less parenting.

I always just assumed cheating on SAT tests wasn’t all that rare. I wouldn’t have thought anybody outside of the family and school would even know about it. I’m sure Clovis West and the family’s involved wish I was actually right this time.
