So much for your glasses. Guess they are just decoration for Birdsfan's nose.

Yep. Makes me look like I know something...and provides protection from errant footballs.

It is the "real" mascot , the FOOTBALL BIRD.

Good. I was going to ask why the football Bird wasn't being used.

Actually that is not it. They now have the new imporved version. It is the "real" mascot , the FOOTBALL BIRD.:dancingpa

 

Thought the Boosters replaced it with the unisex Bird year ago.:idunno:

How can you tell? Is it wearing guy-liner or something? :idunno:

You can't take an original and just make it fit to whatever you decide you want to change it to.

 

Do you change the colors of a Picaso just so it will fit the color scheme of your room? NO

Until you said that, I didn't even realize that they'd made the change. This one is from Friday night. JC fans may want to turn away.:banana:

There is good news and there is bad news. First the good news: This is the farthest PC has advanced in the playoffs and probably their best team ever. Now for the really bad news. This Highlands team is not the average Highlands team--in the past, even average Highlands teams have won state. This Highlands team may be (I said, "may be") the best Highlands team ever. Our D1 starting QB is playing, but not at QB. We have a sophomore QB taking his place. More bad news: This Soph. QB is really, really good, to say the least. I know PC is going to play their hearts out. That's what they had to do to get this far, and I respect them for that! In conclusion, I know that anything can happen; but it is just bad timing to be playing THIS Highlands team THIS YEAR. I hope everyone has a safe trip to and from Ft.Thomas and that there are no injuries to either team.

 

How does this year's team compare to the team you had in 2000? That was a darn good team.

Highlands is really a small, landlocked school. No room or money for bigger facilities. There is a limit but I don't know what it is. What was attendance at the St X game? My guess is that is the limit.

 

Highlands stadium is one of a kind. I don't know of any other stadium where the visiting team parents can sit in the bleachers and carry on a conversation with their son on the sideline.

I don't know. I would like to use a lifeline and ask the experts ,final answer?

Two words.....Brett Hamblem!!!!! He played on that team in 2000 and IMO the best all around player to come through. He could do everything and pretty much couldn't be covered when he was playing the wideout. Just ask the Trinty fans about how he pretty much single handily won that game against them in the Recreation bowl in Mt Sterling.... A real game changer!!!! I think he even finished 3rd or 4th that year right behind Gino Guiduli(SP) of Highlands for Mr. Football. Highlands had 2 that year finish pretty high in the balloting. 1998, Jared Lorenzen wins Mr. Football with Tight End Derek Smith of Highlands finishing 3rd or 4th behind him. That was special couple of years right there people. Hard to compare 1998-2000 to 2007-2009.

Better all around than AC? He must have been something special.

By far. Not taking anything away from AC but Hamblen was all that.

Not much love for Pulaski
