Every now and then I like to go off topic. Here's one of those stories: A parent is miffed that her pale-skinned child wasn't allowed to bring sunscreen to a field trip at a Texas school. The school's reaction? Tough. Well, sort of. Here's what they said: Typically, sunscreen is a toxic substance and we can’t allow toxic things in to be in our schools. They could possibly have an allergic reaction (or) they could ingest it. It’s really a dangerous situation. Yeah, I read about those dangers of drinking SPF50 all the time.
My take on what's happening on the Pittsburgh sports scene and beyond.
