I've seen Manual & Trinity play. No disrespect to Manual but Trinity is on a whole another with their team speed. Which is why the are currently ranked #2 in the Nation. This team has the SPEED THAT KILLS!

I haven't seen or heard much about the Rams, but I would be surprised if they are tougher than Trinity in the trenches, which as Keith Jackson used to say, is "where they sing the hymns."

MBKT, not sure Bama's defense is very good. Manual will surprise you.

the same manual that allowed 35 points to butler? the same butler that was held to 10 points by the struggling male?

Larry ,I'm confused (imagine that ) I thought you were a Ballard fan. Do you support any team that plays Trinity in the state ? I guess the real question is , are you a Trinity hater ?

 

As you can tell I'm a Highlands guy , but I'm hoping Trinity runs the table and blows everybody up along the way , especially those Ohio teams . Trinity has it all this year and I'm impressed with their schedule and how they have performed so far . I hope they stay healthy and keep knocking everybody out . Go Rocks !!!!

Why do you all feed into AL's tactics? He has constantly picked against us, particularly in this forum for the last 5-6 years. If he was a "pick'em" radio guy...he'd be out of a job. I venture, this week, will continue said "errors in judgement".

Actually, Larry is a Male fan. He's a good guy, though.

Because we like Larry, and love the good-natured banter. He's a good guy. He may not be a Rocks fan, but he's still a good guy.

The problem defending Trinity is not only Quick but Dawkins behind the huge O line. If Trinity losses one of them they "might" be beatable if X or Manual played "Perfect" game. Trinity wins by 40+, stop the bubble screen and they still win by 30+.

 

Go Tigers

The only radio guy he couold be is "Leonard's Losers."

T by a ton!

Thanks RM, hate is a horrible word, I hate cancer/mistreated kids/Satan/cigarettes. Back in the 60s/70s Bama rarely lost and people would tell me it would just be nice to see them lose sometimes, well...

 

I never pick the Rocks to lose playing out of state, I always pull for them to win. I wonder if ole Rockpride could say that about Male? I believe some folks at Manual might really "hate" (JVs/Frosh will not play) the Rocks, from last year, but I just want to beat them in a hard fought game.

AL....RockMom knows me very well....as do many other posters on here. I don't "hate" any of our Commonwealth's teams.....I also, will always root DISTRICT, REGION, STATE, RELIGION, first.....head to head? That's a different story. You see, I live and breathe this stuff everyday.....it's not just message board fodder for me.

Does it sound rudely arrogant, if I feel the only team that has a shot (and that maybe a stretch) at us is Moeller? I want that National Title. Mythical or not...it's a huge deal to me.

Thats fine RP, I have two sons names after a Bama Football coach. And a very famous player who wore lady stockings. Now I'm glad we are on the same page on pulling for the State teams verses other schools out side our county. I have met your AD and many coaches in my travels and thought nothing but nice thngs in this meetings. There are some wonderful fans at both X/Rocks and many are on here. I do enjoy getting on the Rocks when I can and its not mean spirited, just having fun.

 

But you have to remember the times I wrote about the 2006 loss to the Rocks, and seeing these kids cry after the game and how bad it hurt, and these things don't go away. I had a kid on that team so that hits close to home to see your own kid suffer. But they have moved on and I'm still trying. The Rocks have won so much, and it would have been sweet to experince that with our son.

 

And now we have another son, and I agree with you 100%, its a lot more than this message board, and we live it every day, since last year and the past summer work outs, and what we are experincing every day rite now. Things change when you have kids involved, doesn't it?

 

Good luck friday, all players safe.
