Cliffs:  A student with Down Syndrome was playing on his HS football team, but is now ineligible to play because he's 19 and that's over the age limit for the high school sports association.  The community is outraged and his sister has started a Facebook page that is now getting tons of hits about it.  Do you think they should let him play anyway?  Why or why not?

I think it's ridiculous that people are all up in arms.  It's not discrimination or anything, they wouldn't let any 19 year old play.  And they've said he can still sit with the team and participate in after game activities.  Lighten up, folks.
