Finding a silver lining

Heading into the 2012-13 basketball season, the Morris girls team seemed to be fighting an uphill battle. Coming off a 7-22 season with just two seniors returning from a year ago, and a team not blessed with great size things did not seem to be lining up for the Redskins this winter.

Still, don't try to tell the team that the season is going to be a lost cause.

"I don't know our strengths yet on the basketball court, but our attitude and work ethic shouldn't be a problem," Morris coach Luke Windy said. "The kids are going to work their butts off no matter what."

I'm in favor of anything that will help improve school finances
I will support it if it helps to lower my property taxes
I oppose it because I don't believe it will impact property taxes and I will just pay twice
I'm against any additional taxes
I have not heard enough yet to form an opinion
