Sounds like a back and forth game that could have gone either way...good win to the ADS! Hopefully with the past two wins that Coach Harp and the boys can turn the corner and continue to improve as the season goes along.

I sat there in shock as they called a running play with 10-15 seconds remaining and then the clock just ran out... I was thinking "wow, what was that?"

 

Not the play that was called. This has happend a few time in other games.

 

Nice atricle from the Danville writer...http://www.winchestersun.com/public_html/?module=displaystory&story_id=8367&format=html

If thing did'nt get better for GRC, they will be playing a 10-0 team in the frist round of the playoffs. If I was the owner of GRC, I would call a team meetting, and a coaching staff meetting, in my coaching staff meeting I would ask corresponding to the 0-4 start, and how each and every game was lost, I would ask, what can we do to turn this season around. I would tell the team, 0-4, thats a done deal, if you kids are looking to reinforce your season, let start with MC, a team that you have not beat in the past 10 years, lets make a commitment as ateam to go out and guarantee a 1-4 record, to start the rest of the season.

It would have been nice to see Jaren Thomas pulling in a long well thrown bomb headed toward the end zone! That boy can catch anything within five yards of him.

 

:thumb: He has been playing excellent in all the games coming up with the big receptions and that interception in the 1st half. I think he should be seeing alilttle more of the action.

While I agree that things must get better for GRC, I'm a bit confused by a couple of your statements. First, who is the OWNER of GRC football? :confused: I'm pretty sure high school teams don't have OWNERS, stakeholders maybe, principals and superintendents definitley, but not OWNERS. Secondly, when quoting facts, one should get the correct facts. I must agree that GRC has not been very successful against Madison Central, however, they did beat them in 2001, the score was 31-20, according to the KHSAA scoreboard at khsaa.org. :fight:

I also agree with the PrideNeverDies that you schedule tough teams to make you better. And with the "new season" beginning on Friday night, the Cards have an opportunity to turn things around for the part of the season that truly counts.

Pride, I not going to get into this with you, I know you are a diehard fan, thats why you are confused with my statement. Everybodys knows highschool sports don't have OWNER'S, but they dont have abase of fans, that surpports there sports, and a AD, athletic director, that over all sports programs. So I will make sure when I speaking sarcastically, I will break it down so you want be : CONFUSED:.

That made no sense what so ever. :irked:

MNCM, 0-4 makes no sense with 22 + seniors.

I'm not getting into anything with anybody, just stating the obvious, and, yes, believe it or not, I got your "sarcasm" (I felt you were the one confused) but spouting gibberish about the program (and attacking posters) does not help the situation. Neither does the constant criticism. I disagree that GRC does not have the base of fans; comparativley, on Friday night, our stands were almost as full as Danville's. There may be problems with the coaches and the players but I fully believe that if one group or the other could solve it, they would. No one wants to be 0-4. And no, it doesn't make sense that we are 0-4 but there are some years that just don't make sense. It takes more than talent to play and win football games.

Ya' gotta love 'em even when they lose. When players read this stuff, and they do, it doesn't help for it to always be negative, no matter how confused we may be:confused:

I was sitting in the Baltimore airport waiting on a delayed flight as this game was being played. My brother in law kept me updated via cell phone. Sounded like it was an ugly, messy game. Glad the Ads pulled it out.

Some of you need to careful.

This was actually a very good game. Always close, not too many penatlies, and good sportsmanship. Hated to see the Cards lose, but congrats again to the Ads.

I think the fan base has been great for the Cards. (When they are winning or losing).

 

I think these young men who go out every Friday night to represent their county, know they have the support of the fans. Sure we can get upset when they don't win but we will tell them to keep their heads up and hit it hard again next week.

 

There are probably some changes that need to be made to help the program over the edge to their first win. I think most are visable, and that the coaching staff will make them. I have full confidence in knowing that they will do what is best for the team. Even if it means making unpopular desicions.

 

So get ready Cards. Have a great week of practice. You have a tough team waiting on you Friday night in the Madison Central Indians.

 

1 game at a time. 55 players can be a strong force. 1 TEAM can be unstopable.
