Meanwhile, on the same page, A Young Student and Golf Player Martin Gonzalez sent a picture to John Burn's Website of himself wearing a Ellenville tee-shirt with two Golf clubs crossing each other...Way to go Gonzalez, The Young will lead the Old.
Ellenville School District- John Burns...Since when has a PUBLIC SCHOOL become one man's Private Sanctuary? His own Religious Devil Mascot. His own Religious Devil Club. His own hand-picked coaches. In the August 20th edition of Shawangunk Journal, SporTalk: Burns admitted that in the past, he took a big sigh of relief when a small group of parents of children in the Ellenville School District and Community members failed to kick out the Devil Mascot. During that time, students wittnessed John Burns and others campaigning for Devil Support during School Hours...DURING PUBLIC SCHOOL HOURS!!! Now Burns, The Social Studies Teacher, is declaring that he will only accept three people to fill Tom Nolan, his buddy's vacant coaching spot, for the Ellenville Girl's Varsity program. Maxwell Mead, Phil Althouse, and Tim Lukaszewski. BURNS WILL NOT ACCEPT ANYONE, BUT THE 3 PERSONS HE PICKED. Has Ellenville become a Private School?...Burn's Devil Academy. Forget about parents, administration, or the school board...it's Burns or Bust. I can see it now...Burns thinking, 1sr The Devil Mascot, then The Devil Club, Now The Devil Coaches...then The Devil Teachers (one pinky on side of his mouth)...then The Devil Board!!! MooooHaHaHa!!! But don't worry True Believers, The Blue Angel is here to save the Day!!! Remember to support your Noble Lions and support Wawarsing Youth, despite some of their devil tee-shirts. Go, Lions, Go!!!

Burns is not employed by the ECSD so what he does during school hours is his business. Burns has no say in who gets the coaching position. You may hate Burns but you are using your forum to attack some great people. Maybe you should choose your words more carefully.
Employed by Ellenville School District or not...Burns can't be doing Devil Business on Public School Property, during School hours. I Like Burns...but some of his ways are very, very "Rude" and wrong (putting it mildly). If your familiar with Burn's SporTalk, It's all about him and what he and his friends do. It's not about Wawarsing Youth...Yes, what about Wawarsing Christian Academy? Have you read his articles?...When have Jonh Burns ever chose his words carefully??? We don't have to agree, just be fair.
You are a religious zealot! What's next? Jihad?
You hide behind your Christian faith and call others the Devil but your own website has a link to gay hip hop music? Book your reservation to eternal damnation!

Notice MY BOY, The 3 question marks after Gay Hip-Hop. Nice Try!!! (written with love and respect.)
So this is what everyone's talking about...funny.
Just need the "Christian" person who sent me an e-mail to read Matthew 10:34-40. Would Jesus wear a Devil tee-shirt? You should be ashamed of your wrong stance on this issue. I'll pray for you brother. Keep doing Wawarsing Christian Proud!
God-forbid you leave the post of an opoosing point of view up. How does it feel to be God? You can argue your radical Christianity here on your own website and then declare yourself the ultimate judge and banish everyone to hell who disagrees with your point of view. Does the Wawarsing Christian Academy support this and how much will it cost me to send my child there and be brainwashed?
With all due respect, we are trying to keep the comments somewhat respectable...God Bless you. By the way, are you the guy who wrote the comment on the SporTalk spot??? Did you learn how to spell Athlete yet???
dear secret anonymous blue devil lover: you didn't answer my question. You were smug. You tried to be a smart ass. But does the Wawarsing Christian Academy support your views?
Ummmmm, let me think...WCA allows students to play for The Blue Devils...OF COURSE THEY DON'T HOLD THE SAME VIEW!!! But I just Love those Noble Lions...They're the Coolest...they remind me of The Lion of Judah.
The Wawarsing Christian Academy is not affiliated in any way with the blogger The Blue Devil Must Die. We as a school are very grateful for the relationship that we have with the Ellenville Central School District. All their staff have been extremely helpful to us in areas of technology, teacher support, guidance, and sports. We have been grateful for the opportunity alloted to us to play on their sports teams and I beleive our students have contributed in character and athletic ability to such teams. We look forward to a continuing such relationship in the future. Once again, the opinions of blogger The Blue Devil Must Die are nto endorsed by our school. Ron Mahany, Administrator Wawarsing Christian Academy
The Wawarsing Christian Academy is not affiliated in any way with this blogger.
Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said unto him: and so it was, because he feared his father's household, and the men of the city, that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.
And when the men of the city arose early in the morning behold, THE ALTAR OF BAAL WAS CAST DOWN, AND THE GROVE WAS CUT DOWN THAT WAS BY IT, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar that was built.
And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And when they enquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing.
Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar OF BAAL, and because he hath cut down the grove that was by it.
And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for BAAL? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning: if he be a god, let him plead for himself, because one hath cast down his altar.
-Judges 6:27-32
Yes, because "The Blue Angel" will inspire our opposing teams to take our student athletes seriously, something we have struggled with for YEARS and are just now beginning to overcome. The BLUE DEVILS seem to be doing quite well in the athletics department this season and yes, while I realize this is an old post, I do think your self appointed and assumed right to speak for others is quite misplaced. Instead of being outraged by your posts, which are clearly designed to create trouble, I found myself laughing at your ridiculousness. The Blue Devil isn't going anywhere. Take your self righteous religious zealot beliefs and bring them somewhere you'll find some like minded people. Even the Wawarsing Christian Academy you claim to support is quick to deny any affiliation with you and your ideals. I can see how being associated with this blog would be quite damaging to their reputation. That alone should tell you no one is jumping on the bandwagon you are trying to create.
I find it even more interesting that you have failed to report on the athletic prowess our Blue Devil athletes have exhibited this fall sports season. We have an undefeated football team as well as several other teams making sectional playoff appearances. Maybe this is because you are one of the "fair weather fans" Mr. Burns speaks about...you know, the ones who only show up around playoff time.
You also seem to spend quite a bit of time bashing Mr. Burns. Interesting, however, that you consistently label him as an Ellenville HS teacher...News flash! He doesn't work for the district! Please do your homework before spouting off inaccuracies in the future. Clearly you have jealousy issues over the wonderful things Burns has done to increase community support and spirit for our local athletics(coaching, Summer Rec, booster club...need I go on?)
I also find it quite telling that Mr. Burns has refused to address any of your outrageous statements in his SportTalk column despite your insistence on goading and baiting Blue Devil supporters...I do believe this is called turning the other cheek, something you should probably know quite a bit about, considering your supposed relationship with God. Maybe Mr. Burns does have it right after all?
I am proud to be a BLUE DEVIL!
