Louisville NOT Bidding the State Finals for Next Season

[Jim Schue]

That's bull. No Highlands fan worth his/her salt would object to seeing the Birds play anyone in the state, anywhere in the state. Choose another shovel.

 

You need to lighten up. I'm having a joke at the expense of some friends.

Dang...you caught us! It was all just fear of the Purple Juggernaut.

 

I knew you doth protest too much. :lol:

Overnight stay is not a big concern for NKY and LOU residents unless they want to make it one. And my school runs fan busses that you can ride for peanuts, see the game and return home safely. I'm sure some of the other schools involved could adopt that idea to help out.

Great ideas...except for me.

Oh no, this thread has devolved into Shakespeare in the round.

Now, you know I'm sympathetic, but therein lies the problem with fairness. While it's a great concept in theory, rarely is it all-encompassing in practice.

To put it more simply, "fairness" is rarely fair for everyone. Someone always gets the shaft.

Is that original Jim Schue, or did you lift it from somewhere ?? That's GREAT prose !!!

 

(and it describes our tax system perfectly :lol: )

I have my moments of profundity. You know what they say about the blind hog ...

Possibly. I may have read it as "...our backyard..." Couldn't let a shot like that go unanswered.

As some of us have been saying for some time, Bowling Green was the most suitable alternative site for the state finals if/when Louisville wasn't available.

 

There really is no viable alternative.

I think you hit the nail on the head Watusi.

 

Most of the complaining about drive time is coming from fans in Louisville and NKY who rarely travel more than 30 minutes for a road game.

 

People in other parts of the state who don't mind the finals moving are already making 1-2 hour drives just to play district games. Any added drive time doesn't matter to them.

 

There are some places that just aren't accustomed to making long road trips.

 

 

Ummmm....the Louisville fans I've seen posting in here have no problem with the move, that I noticed. :creepy: Just so you realize, Louisville and Northern Kentucky are not the same. Geographically, we're both on the river, but Northern Kentucky is much more North than Louisville. Shoot! The next thing you know, you'll lump Henderson and Owensboro in with Northern Kentucky!

What does Beechwood have to do with this? I couldn't find a single post from the Tiger faithful.

 

I meant to say Fort Thomas. Sorry all Beechwood fans. :laugh:

Heard this morning they are going to try to work something out at Papa Johns.

[Odessa]

Will the Executive West Hotel be open for this years state finals?
