  1. Yes it was the boat that capsized and yes after a few phone calls the comments were removed. I just cannot understand why people can be that cruel .
  2. I am sure many of you have heard of the tradgedy in Warsaw/Vevay yesterday involving the young men on the river. Well the story is posted on many media outlets inclduding WCPO.com. Some have taken the liberty of making light of this situation even though it is possible a life may have been lost. If you get a chance read the article and the comments. We all use our alias on here but for the most part its good clean fun, but when people makes the kinds of comments that are being made on wcpo.com it makes me sad for humanity. God Bless the Hearn Family and those helping on the search.
  3. My mother survived both of the same types of cancer. Prayers are with you and your Granny, and if you have any questions pm me. She is living a healthy life today and still working at 66 yrs old.
  4. I accidently found a Jamey Johnson song on you tube I had never heard. Its called In this Honk Tonk or you can also find it by searching Rules of the Bar. I would be interested to hear what others think of it.
  5. Yes I did glance at the schedule and noticed that there were crazy run scores. I also noticed another interesting thing but won't comment on it but it has to make you wonder.
  6. Stumbled across this on KHSBBCA website. Last years stats for then Freshman Dylan Creech. .664/8/99 ? Really 99 RBI? Thats pretty impressive, it also says he had 25 doubles and 11 triples.
  7. I have one more for you guys , Corey Smith ?
  8. Yo may enjoy his latest double album which you can actually buy in vinyl. It is referred to as a concept album which captures a journey from the dark side to the lighter side. It has a white side and a black side, it is pretty good and has a couple of covers such as Set em up Joe and For the Good times.
  9. Just out of curiosity for you music enthusiasts that listen to all types, what is your opinion on Jamey Johnson?
  10. Bottom Line its all in what your preference is. I mainly listen to Country Music and while I agree much of the stuff labled country today is not country and I don't like it but it does sell. Much of the music and many of the artists that are worshiped on this board, I cannot stand. The rock music from the 70's just depresses me and puts me in a bad mood. However I dont feel I have the right to tell others what is good or bad because in the end its all opinion.
  11. Maybe not in your opinion but millions of paying fans and cusotmers say otherwise.
  12. I'll admit his first 3 albums were his best and had he released them in reverse order he may not have been a household name but he is still one of the most popular ever.
  13. There are some very bad artists out that are as far away from country music as some of those in this top 50. On the other hand some of the guys that get hammered on here are pretty decent and some have potential tot be country legends. Garth Brooks just sold out 5 or 6 shows for Nashville and I know he takes a beating on here. As far as creativity that could be said about almost any band or artist.
  14. Great day to get it on because you will want to listen to it non stop this weekend. It is a 2 cd collection of 24 songs that has what is called a black side and a white side which is trying to tell a story I believe.
  15. Listen to Jamey Johnson's new CD, the song Heartache is pretty good.
  16. I guess on TO's touchdown, as a fan I was wanting to see some genuine enthusiasm from the team on the TD. Kinda like hey now lets turn this thing around, were all in this together! I didnt think about the penalty thing, whatever happened to lets just mob each other!
  17. TO is a bad man, I love his style. Did anyone notice on the first TD on Monday only one or two came to congratulate him?
  18. Without a shadow of a doubt our program is headed in the right direction. Our numbers are tremendous and the work being put in by the players and coaches year round support that. The camps, weightlifting, pride and morale are great things to see. The foundation has to be laid prior to building a good team, and that has been done now its time to move to the next step. Next year our district becomes very possible to win. However do not overlook and up and coming Walton team that you have beat every year since their inception into football. I think everyone realized we could not compete for a dist. championship with CAL and DeSales and that somewhat deflated us when we played them and similar teams in the playoffs. Each time we faced teams of that caliber it was in a must win game whether it be in a district game or a playoff game, and that only magnified the pressure being put on the kids. However what would have happened had we played a Henry Co. or a similar team in place of a Bracken or someone else in a game without such high stakes? I would think we would get used to that physciality as well as the speed of the game which in turn would have better prepared us for the big games when they mattered. I am all for building confidence in the kids but personally I think there are enough of those types of games built into our schedule because of the scheduling grid. On JT's point I dont think we would go 1-9 or 2-8 simply because of the built in games and how far our program has came in the past couple years. Now here comes the real logic to beefing up the schedule. As stated we knew going in we could not compete for a district championship with CAL and Desales but we feel we can now with the re districting. We beat Owen in a very close game and Walton is on the fast track to having one heck of a program. Would you rather have a team that has prepared vs a Henry like team or a team that has prepared against a team such as Dayton? What happens to the kids morale if they lose to Owen and Walton and now they are thinking wow we cant even win this District ? Strenthining the schedule a little is just the next step in winning a first round playoff game. Not only does is make you better but it possilby sends you into the first round as a district champion rather than a team that just gets to go because.... Being a champion produces a huge mental edge and serves as a springboard to bigger and better things. Again all this is just my opinion, btw Keep up the good work.
  19. Ok Ill say this one more time, it WAS NOT a knock on the staff. One thing is evident you guys love the kids on this team as well as the players that have been in the system in years past. As a parent of those children, and as a person who has coached many, many of these kids there is nothing that means more and that includes wins and losses ! I would never second guess a coach in an open forum as it happens enough as it is. My intent of the initial post was not to argue or debate but simply say hey look what the good teams do. I work with a guy who has close tie with Desales and they schedule 6a teams to prepare them for playoffs. i am not saying we go schedule Trinity or St. X but come on you know the game. Does playing the Bracken like teams prepare you for a Holy Cross or NCC? No it does not, playing those type teams let you get by with things that the Holy Cross will expose. The 4 things you call mistakes would not have happened against the brackens of the world. That is all I am saying and YOU of all people should know that. I am surprised you took such offense to the post. Read some of this other stuff in the above posts, look at what people think of us. We want the same thing for our kids, not only the football team but our children. Its about expectations we just cant expect to beat up on the little guy and find ourselves lost against the big boys. My suggestion get the Henrys of the world back on the schedule, keep the teams like Desales and Cal or similar teams and I guarantee you a district championship will return to CC very soon. While I am sorry you took offense to it, I am glad it got you to thinking about it. Love your intensity now spread it !!!!
  20. And as far as the inexperience give me a break I played and coached in as many if not more than you. I actually thought maybe you would relate to the scheduling of tough teams . Maybe if we did teams would refer to is as competitors rather than stepping stones. Like I said don't take it personal I respect the work coaches put in. So don't go down that road,it's as simple as playing tougher teams.
