If something is not done, I’ll be forced to go to the next commissioners’ meeting and show my evidence. It’s already been shown, but nothing has been done.

During the high school football season in 1999, Bradwell issued T-shirts to its seniors that said “the last of the hard.” Those T-shirts ring so true now. Bradwell football is now a second-ranked football team that can barely compete with the Savannah high schools. It’s time for a change.

Let’s put God back into America. Let’s get prayers back in school. Let’s live by the golden rule. We need to put God back in America and start helping each other. Friends, family — be a family, be a friend. Don’t let the devil in your heart.
