Oldbird Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I love the fact that Highlands has traditionally been good in football, but I love going to the sweet 16. This is a tough question for me and that is why I asked it. I put the thread in the football section just because there is real action going on in basketball and this is an off season kind of question.
Watusi Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Football is where my heart lies and without question the sport where I most want to see the Pirates have success. Of course, I like seeing Belfry excel in all sports. I'm happy for the basketball and baseball teams when they do well and I pull for the girls in all sports. I guess that is a vanilla answer that any fan should give, though.
gold sunrise Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 GRC is coming up in football...went a real dry spell after winning the 4A in 1991. Basketball is always competitive in a tuff 10th region. Golf... usually go to state and very competitive every year. Baseball team right in the hunt every season...sports is good at GRC...:thumb: My favorite sport...Basketball..
cammando Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 It's tough being a football fan in a basketball state, but football is the only game that matters to me.. I would like for the teams I root for to win in all sports because it's important for the kids who work just as hard at their sport to get the support they deserve for their effort...
Boucher Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Football. I know that in KY that basketball is king, but football is my favorite.
Hearsay Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I like that Bardstown is pretty darned good in both, and the best in track. Russell seems to be awfully good in those departments, too.
oldonetechnique Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Football and football only, even though I want kids to excel at all times and root for other sports, I dream of a school where football is the only sport.
83birds Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I would rather they be good in all sports, both girls and boys. There are more than enough athletes in the halls at Highlands to be very good in each and every sport. I would like to see more of the two and three sport athletes rather than the football only. There are only so many scholarships to be given out and those that have gotten them at Highlands in recent years have been multiple sport athletes.
EQUUS GREVYI Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I would rather see my favorite school do pretty well in all sports than exceptionally well in only one. Schools that are exceptional in one or the other can tend to alienate the other sports. When booster programs spend all time and effort supporting one sport (let's say football) it can make the other athletes seem like after thoughts. That being said, I would love to see a state basketball championship trophy in the lobby.
Graybeard Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Obviously being good at everything would be best. But, if it can only be one sport – I’d choose Football.
