Birdsfan, I have already tried to kill the bug crawling around my computer...

Cleared out the storeroom and found that oldie. Thought I'd give it a run for a while.

I copied your "bug" and sent it in the center of an email to my sister with a subject line...Do you have any bug spray?

 

It freaked her out

Glad to be of service. :lol:

I'm wondering how well will Central play on the road?

 

Their only long road trip last season was disastrous, to Johnson Central. They played well below their ability and had a bad showing.

 

The only away games this season have been at Manual, Moore and St Xavier, nothing like the trip to Fort Thomas will be.

 

I was wondering how long I was going to read into this thread before I saw someone mention this. Central had a horrible showing of fans last year that their place but they did have an amazing band that made it more than intimidating for those of us that did go. Their band was talking trash in an innocent playful way to us and I loved it that they knew that much about their team and even pointed out good players. How many of our band members know that much about our team?

 

Sidenote: I have to say I was very disappointed in our band a few weeks ago when they forgot how to play the National Anthem. They got lost on an entire 8-count. It was very embarrassing not only as a Highlands fan, but as an American. The number one song that every band should know is the National Anthem. What a disservice to all of the men and women who have, do, and will fight for our country by not playing the National Anthem accurately.

 

Back to the game. I feel that just as the trip last year did for Highlands, the trip to Ft Thomas will prove to make the game a little tougher for the Jackets. I don't think it will make them any slower or less talented, but being out of your element or "safe zone" so to speak, makes it tough on you. I am not certain on the last visit they made to HHS but it can be a very hard place to play. Having that crowd right behind you can get very frustrating. Last week we heard Madison Central's coach screaming cuss-words at his players after a bad play and it was most disheartening to hear a high school coach talking to players this way. I know that this is just the way some coaches do it, but is it necessary?

I don't think they have ever played at Highlands and if they have it has been a few years.

Love the Avatar Henry!

I was in Vegas the night of the election and people were running wild through the streets with early editions of the newspaper. It was pretty wild. I felt like that after waking up with Jet Lag this morning back in the Fort!

3 points or 3 scores? Either way, I hope your wrong. But if any KY team makes me nervous, it's this one.

3 points.

It was a St. Luke Champions Bowl game. Central had a good squad that year is was a very competitive game.

I posted it last week asking what was so special when Central played at Highlands last. It was the 1st official High School football game played on Highlands new field turf. Heck the tractors were still warm from spreading sand and rubber.:thumb:
