Response Blog

I read many blogs from other groups, but one of them stood out to me the most. This blog was posted by "Senior Writing 101's" group. The blog was titled, "Field Day." This blog was more than just like a blog post; it was a well written paper. This post was basically saying that seniors overreacted too much about not winning the bucket and how we deserved to lose since we didn't try as hard, since the seniors thought the scoring was rigged. The writer also talked about why seniors would key the junior’s cars just because the seniors lost the bucket. In the end he also said it's just a bucket and we shouldn't be mad about it. The author did a great job explaining on how we overreacted about this situation. In my opinion for the seniors, it's more than just a bucket to us. It's like something that holds pride to being a senior. Knowing that you're at the top and you graduate before anyone else there. Seniors are upperclassmen and it's not just about winning an old rusty bucket. It's showing that we are the top class. But the seniors didn't try as hard and we lost the first two events. It was impossible to come back from that. When the seniors lost the bucket, we all left the gym dead silent. But for the juniors, they have their senior year to win the bucket. Last time the juniors won the bucket, the school went into chaos. The seniors keyed all the juniors’ cars and slashed all of the tires. Also they locked them in the gym and everyone out of the school. We had police officers there when we lost the bucket this year. But in the end, the bucket is an important piece of senior field day history.
