I will be there as well...

This will be the best game in years. I think the Manual defense will be the difference in this one. Manual by a TD.

 

Any chance this is the Insight game of the week?

It should be but I have not seen or heard confirmation of that....

Whats the series record? Who can name the best games for Manual, Male.... What was the wildest game? Highest scoring, team and combined score...? How about some Turkey day stories.... Come on Folks.... This is the Public " Super bowl".... Its even being moved to PJCS (nice move...). When did the game become a "rivalry"....? How about upsets..... Surly some of the Dawg and Crimson supporters can spread some light for us other guys that do have an interest in this historic matchup.....

 

Who are some of the great HS players that participated in this rivalry...?

If you start looking for series records and other such stats you'll find that this is a lopsided rivalry with Male far and away on top. What makes this rivalry isn't the competitive nature but rather what these schools are.

 

In the beginning (1893) Male was the white collar prep school and Manual was the blue collar trade school. Natural class rivalry developed from the start. Today, Manual and Male are two the top schools in Jefferson Co. Getting into Male or Manual is no easy task as they are the most sought after schools in an open enrollment system. Yet while both schools excel, they are dramatically different in culture. Male is still very much a prep school with the traditional program, its the school of preps and jocks. Manual on the other hand with its diverse programs of arts(YPAS and Visual arts) and sciences (MST program) makes Manual a school of freaks and geeks.

 

When I played, I never played a Male team that we could remotely touch in terms of talent. Today the gap has closed a great deal. Some have, in the last few years, said that Manual might have more talent than Male. I don't think I believe that. Male is still Male, nor do I think Manual is as talented as their record makes people assume.

The game will be on Insight.

The game will be on Insight.

 

What channel?

It's usually on Insight Channel 2.

 

My question is what day and time?

If my history lesson is coming to me clearly, the very first game had a pair of brothers, one playing for Manual, the other for Male. The brother on Male's defense tackled the brother going for the game winning score on Manual's offense. It's ALWAYS been a rivalry.

It's usually on Insight Channel 2.

 

My question is what day and time?

 

Insight 2 in Louisville area, first airing Sat Nov 3rd at 7:30pm can't find any more listed although there are a couple of 3 hour slots listed as TBA, will probably be available on demand for free starting Monday, there's several games on there now. To get to the on demand you need a digital box, go to on demand and select the "free spot" and scroll down to "ICN 2" then select the game, usually broken into halves.

Very Cool!

 

I do and I will.

 

Thanks PeteW.

42-26 good guys.

 

GO RAMS!

 

BEAT MALE!

42-26 good guys.

 

 

Trinity's not playing:D;)

I think Trinity would be both teams back to back on the same nite.

For 125 year historic rivalry, this board seams a little quite to me......

157...its called respect. Also its a known fact that a lot of public schools fans don't post on BGPs. I've only know of maybe five or six Male fans, there are a bunch of Rams on here, but how many from the other public schools in Jefferson County?

 

Seneca= Fans?

Southern=?

Fern Creek=?

Moore=?

Eastern=?

Iroquois=?

Etc.

 

157, hope this helps. Good luck to the Rams.

 

Momma called on her cell there are fans already tailgating....3:30
