This discussion brings to mind what NewCath has painted boldly on their gymnasium wall.

 

"To Succeed One Must Believe, And We Believe"

 

I think that we can all agree that there's a lot of truth in that saying. Sure, in some cases one also must understand their limitations, so of course The Dayton Greendevils can dream all they want if they were scheduled to face the Bluebirds, but mostly everyone in the entire state of Kentucky and even further would consider that dream way overly far fetched.

 

In the case of the Colonels who do have a talented team, their believing is not at all far fetched, and they might as well make the most of their dreaming if they stand the chance of succeeding against Highlands. Part of the recipe for them winning, which is not impossible although the Birds will be favored going in, is to believe. If they can't bring that belief with them to the game they might as well stay home. That belief will charge them up to get to the game, and because they're actually quite capable of succeeding this year in that situation, who knows, they might, but if they're gonna do it they must enter game certain that they will.

 

Not at all unlike what you'd hope to expect from any team ever in any sport in the history of high school sports, and if Dayton took their shot at the Birds, I'd certainly hope going it that they'd be going into it believing no matter how far fetched any of us think it is.

 

Although others might think they're crazy, what really do they have to lose by believing in themselves?

 

Highlands record versus Dayton, KY 47-10-3 Big rivalry a long time ago. :scared:

They were probably really excited about that icing on the Colonel C-A-K-E (see what I did there Highlands fans?) until they realized there were 39 candles on the one side with yellow icing and a big M and 0 on the side with blue icing and the CCH.

 

Hard to be excited about a rival's 6 point win when you are getting beat by 39.......I am going to guess CovCath fans were more concerned with their own team than what Highlands did.

 

My only smile came when I heard of the "no new injury" report coming out of the big Mo game.

I wonder if there's a Greendevil supporter out there somewhere that can still toss a memory or two of a big victory into the face of an old Bluebird supporter. I'd love to be in earshot while that boastful conversation was going on.

Can someone explain to me why we label station as a bad team. Lost to St X (who lost to BG in OT) by 2tds and lost to HHS by a TD in a shootout. Seems to me they are hanging with some of the best programs in the state! Maybe playing a tough schedule to prepare themselves for an end of the season run???

What did the SK and X scrimmage turn out to be. I seriously can't remember.

From memory 14 to 7 X when it mattered but it is all on here.

Station has to be solid...

It was. Went back and looked.

The Colonels win it all in RUPP?

Hope so, that was exciting!

Station is a very solid team. Lacking a little Discipline that can be fixed pretty quickly...A tell tale sign will be how well they keep performing against solid programs. Friday night is another step in the right direction playing LexCath on Friday night. Station is going to make some noise this year before it's all over. Station's QB is a very good football player and one of the better QB's I have seen in person and not on paper/film in a very long time. Keep an eye on him & the Defenders people!

#nomoresmiling ???

I'd say puzzled looks by everyone.

I think the smirks have turned to frowns by now. Can be seen all the way from the Big Sandy!:thumb:
