Can I just say how upsetting it is that all of the commercial briefs for Lincoln-Douglas debate have completely done away with their value framework sections?!?
It’s just right into contentions as if value frameworks are irrelevant. The PF-i-fication of this event I love continues apace. #HSDebate
To run it because it works with lay judges, I’m going to acknowledge the truth of the statement but then point out you are intentionally coaching your students to run circular moral arguments to achieve a desired end (breaking).
Do better.

I’m the L/D coach and assist with PF and proud to say we had a quarterfinalist in L/D and a PF team qualify, so we won the debate sweepstakes as well! #HSDebate #SpeechAndDebate

We’ve got a national qualifier in the house!!! The Kid finished second in the district qualifiers in original oratory and is headed to Nat’l Speech & Debate Association Championship in June!! #kvelling #ProudPapa #SpeechAndDebate #HSDebate
Kritik does not belong in Lincoln-Douglas debate and this is a hill I will die on
(I think it sucks in policy debate too but at least it’s well established in the former) #Coaching #SpeechAndDebate #HSDebate
Judging #nfldistricts #hsdebate. If this is any indication, I was robbed by not having a high school in this contest--I would've dominated.
