December 8, 201312 yr What it comes down to is Highlands is a team that is easy to beat. Alright, now you're even out-doing yourself. :lol2:
December 8, 201312 yr Alright, now you're even out-doing yourself. :lol2: Maybe I should apply for the Ryle job and prove it!
December 8, 201312 yr Well, to answer the question posed at the beginning of the thread...they scored more points. Whether that's this, that or the other...in the end, that's the answer.
December 8, 201312 yr Good thing they don't play SK or they would have more losses! MAYBE, SK would have won this year (you can't really be sure one way or the other). But over the last 10 years or so, SK wins no more than once or twice against Highlands. It's hard for me to imagine how one can take so much pleasure in seeing a bunch of teenagers lose a football game.
December 8, 201312 yr PP92 is correct on one thing and I've been saying it on here for years. If I see a team described as "athletic" I know they've got a few black players. Without question. Universal. I will say I never used this filter in such a direct manner. To me, 'athletic' could be a team that has skill players players that all run 4.5s, are all at least 6' tall and are well conditioned. Granted few 'all white' teams meet this make-up but I never really tied the term to race.
December 8, 201312 yr Just the 'stats'. Collins turnovers - 0 Collins penalties - 2 (vs. HHS 8) Highlands punts - 6 (vs. Collins 2) First downs: Collins 25, HHS 23 TOP: Collins 27:25, HHS 20:30 LexCath failed to force HHS to punt in two games. Collins forced 6 punts in one game. No turnovers, Only 2 penalties. Why did Collins win? Defense, discipline, execution.

Collins forced 6 punts in one game. No turnovers, Only 2 penalties. Why did Collins win? Defense, discipline, execution. Where are these stats from? Collins did in fact have no turnovers. Highlands had 2 I believe. Collins I believe punted 2 or 3 times and Highlands punted 1 time. Penalties were a key factor in this game as well. Collins had 2 blatant penalties that you had to call. No others which is surprising that there would not be a hold or two somewhere in a game where you run the ball as successfully as they did. Seemed like every Highlands penalty was at a crucial time as there were several holds called after a substantial gain. Speaking of penalties, can someone explain to me how a running back can tackle a defender who is getting ready to make a play on the quarterback on the flea flicker that Collins ran deep in their own end and there not be a penalty?
December 8, 201312 yr Hahahaha! Seriously, are we not allowed to say black when referencing black kids. Wait, Clyde did. he must be a trendsetter.
December 8, 201312 yr What happened to those Collins athletes when Highlands threw the ball? Houlistan had around 380 yards passing to a bunch of Highlands athletes. By the way, that QB for Collins was perhaps the star of the game and he's a heck of an athlete. #85 for Collins is a good athlete and made some nice plays. But they aren't the PP92 type of athlete. I did not see Hghlands' defense get out athleted in the way PP92 is referencing it. Bottom line for me, I see nothing to the assertion that PP92 is making.
December 8, 201312 yr Athletic = black players? Wow. I live in, what most consider Eastern Kentucky, and I have never seen that word used to mean a race. Wow. I have some questions: What does "fast" mean? What does "good player" mean? What does "college prospect" mean? What do you call "White" players that are good? What do you call other race players that are good? What do you call black players that are bad?

SK v Louisville Butler. Butler , said more than one, is "athletic." Happens more than most realize.
December 9, 201312 yr Agree. If I have the tv on a basketball game and I'm in the kitchen and can't see the screen, I have a 99% chance of knowing what they're saying with "gym rat", "deceptively quick", "gets the most out of his abilities", and "cerebral player".
