It is my understanding that many high school football players read the comments that are posted on BGP. If this is the case, then it makes sense from a practical standpoint for the fans not to talk about their team blowing out one team after another. Confidence can quickly turn into complacency, and these high school teams aren't unbeatable.

Players have been hearing from fans for decades.

 

You are not giving the coaches any credit.

I get that. If you think your team will kill the next opponent, that doesn't need to be said. But to come on here and make statements that are falsehoods in your own mind just keep the players focused seems a little over the top. The coaches will keep them focused.

Ive been around when players have read stuff on here. Most of the time they're crying from laughter.

You guys are looking for something to complain about.

 

Courtesy? Class? Sportsmanship?

 

Please.

 

One guy thinks HHS has what takes and will indeed win. Good for him express his opinion.

 

Quit crying. It is more unbecoming than predicting it is over.

 

Thank you Clyde. When did I disrespect the opponent by the way? Just because I state I think they should win every game on their schedule that is disrespecting your opponent?

 

The fact of the matter is this is a message board and if the kids reading this board are more focused on what is said then the task at hand then they dont deserve to be on the field anyway.

Thats what Im saying....LOL. Some fans on here take it more serious than the kids do. They know what they have to do and its not read this board and start thinking they are better than they really are. Dale and his staff have them focused and they are playing great football.

Come on seriously? LOL What would you like me to say about their next game agains Mason Co that is practical? Waiting.

I don't recall saying anything like that . John Harden is 5A, correct ? My Birds don't have to play them to win state , so I don't really care who they play or beat. Yea , I've been known to talk alot , but , I'm not that cocky , so, your barking up the wrong tree. As Paul Harvey would say " good day " .

 

You were my guess. You have talked a lot of trash before. Yes, you have come off that cocky before. I was wrong. I'm sorry. Good day to you too.

Bpiccolo and a bit premature. All in jest I'm sure. And I'm sure PP92 would disagree and probably why he didn't answer question because he is waiting to pounce.

 

Naw, celebrating my wife's birthday in Lexington. I didn't take it seriously but I understand the sentiment behind it. If I was a Highlands fan I would speak sentences of similar nature. As of today who in 4A can challenge Highlands? I hope my Rebels can but we aren't ready yet. Hopefully we will be in November. We shall see.

I started a thread earlier asking the question as to who would challenge the Birds and didnt get much information about the other teams. I know Boyle Co is a good team who will get better but so will the Birds and they will likely have to travel north to DCM. Lexington Catholic has a great QB but who else on that team is a threat? Johnson Central has JJ Jude but they have had him the past two years as well.

 

The games that I thinkn will be competetive for the Birds that are left on their schedule are CovCath (for a minute) and Elder. The 1st and 2nd round games are comical to say the least. I know, I know...Bryan STation a few years ago but what was that 1 team out of the last 39 in those rounds? The way the playoff system is in KY is a joke and it should be shortened. JMO

What is DCM? Highlands will have to travel to play the winner of the probable Boyle/LexCath playoff match up.

 

IMO, Boyle and LexCath are the only teams capable of challenging Highlands. I think LexCath may have the best offense to score with the Birds. I can answer the question a lot better after I see the first Boyle/LexCath match up in October.

My bad, its David Cecil Memorial Stadium. I was under the impression they would have all playoff games at home but I believe that was last season.

With the realignment Highlands may be in an even region now. I know if Boyle beats LexCath in October every playoff game they play will be at home.

From now on, we alternate home/away in the 3rd & 4th rounds. The way it used to be, we were either home for both rounds in a given year, or away for both.

Very true. These are teenagers we're talking about. Anyone who thinks comments on here don't have any effect on them -- even if only subliminally -- is kidding themself. Now what they do with it is another matter. But if it didn't effect them at all, there wouldn't be so many coaches who frown on their players getting on boards like this.
