If Nic Simpson is a D-1 player which Jerry Eaves obviously thinks, then Greg McGraw is one also. JMO

Hey they got in free! Oh so did I!!

 

What's the secret...........SOME SCHOOL(S) had scouts ON THE PASS LIST TURNED AWAY. That should be fixed!!!!!!:irked:

Congrats to the Birds! The second half was a thing of beauty.

 

Also, the student section was AWSOME! The atomsphere was really the best.

 

I don't understand the rule on the use of the thunder sticks. I'm sure I have seen them at college games and don't understand why you can't use them at High School games. To much noise?:confused::lol:

 

 

 

 

 

Loved the blue tear.

 

Thunder Sticks are prohibited. They are considered artificial noise makers and are not allowed at high school games.

I wouldn't swear to it, but I thought it was Reineke, Shields, and Wright...

 

Those are three fine officials. I know all of them and there's no way they would try to influence a game.

If the scouts were trying to use their KHSAA Coaches pass to gain entry, keep in mind those are for regular season games only. Head coaches of teams in the tournament can leave a "guest list".

That's stupid. I guess a pep band is "real noise"?:irked:

I believe fire codes trump pass list. There is no "reserved seating". The best you can do is get "preferred seating" next to Malachicrunch!!:lol: Big game...they should have known to get there early!

You are referring to the "Pass Gate" list... And they turned scouts away from there as well...

I disagree with your assessment of the officiating, but I will limit my opinion to my vantage point. I did not perceive a great partiality, BUT I was not personally in a position to see the Lipscomb call. B-ball fan I have read enough of your posts and don't believe you have an agenda, so I'll respectfully disagree with your opinion about some blown calls.

 

I do not, however, think it was going to make the difference in the game, even if every single call had gone the Breds way. I understand your point about momentum shift and critical timing of the calls and all, but if the timing was really that critical to the outcome, NCC has to look at themselves and realize that they missed the opportunity to put Highlands in a deep, deep hole early on by not converting second chance opportunities and not defending McGraw better in the first quarter. Instead of playing neck and neck with Highlands the first half, NCC could easily have had an 8-10 point lead.

 

Again, I have always respected your input, but in this case the officiating wasn't going to make the difference. Moreover, I will always give the officials the benefit of the doubt - it is a truly tough and thankless job and I have never met one that does it for the money or because they have an agenda.

 

 

I'm cool with that. :thumb: I respect your opinion too and have dug your posts as well. And you're right. I don't have an agenda. Just pretty opinionated sometimes. I'll probably cool it now on the topic. I'd say I've done all the venting that I need to. Right or Wrong, thanks for hearing me out. :thumb:

I don't know if the Thunder sticks were taken away or what, but you can not use artificual noise makers during the game. I'm sure that had something to do with them being asked to get rid of them.

Right. And to get your name on that list you need to either have one of the participating Head Coaches, or the host AD put your name on that list. Past practice for as long as I can remember.

Soooo Sorry. Didn't mean to "take your thunder".

Now that's what we call emotional sharing. You guys just need to hug it out now.

Is it just me or does Coach Brannen look like Farmer Fran in the Waterboy?

 

I just googled a pic of Farmer Fran and my boy and I are cracking up. I cant post the picture to compare but it is hilarious. Nice work Sticky !
