Wow. Minutes after you said that, X defense picks off a pass!

Leatherneck, St X "appears" to be getting better players the last few years, if Freshman and JV results mean anything. I know they always don't. We should start taking a few of those championships T has been getting the last 6 years. I think T had an advantage for a few years due to their new stadium. Now X has the latest and greatest (except for that darn track), and should swing the pendulum back to X. X has a few awesome RB's this year. I pray to the Lord they don't live out of county.

That sure wouldn't seem fair to mandate that.

We know who you mean! :laugh:

This is only the 2nd time in series history (per radio call) that both teams have scored 20+ points in the GAME!!! And it's only halftime. I think X defense is getting itself under control the last few series, and goes on to win

Wow. X has more passing yards than T in that half. Sure didn't seem that way. 136 to 134 yds passing. More rushing too. http://www.khsaa.org/football/2007/6a/xlive.htm

This game is always tight between these two. It's just too darn stressfull. :mad:

One of the best movies for your purposes would be "Amistad". Nothing too offensive, and very powerful, plus it is modern enough to keep their attentions. You probably know, but it covers the slave trade, early American politics, abolition, and a strong dose of ethics related to politics. The best movie I saw was in religion class, about relationships with family and friends was "The Great Santini". Don't know if that fits into your classes or not. Thats a good era of movie, because again it's modern enough to relate too, and old enough to pass the censors.

Trinity gets the ball - 2nd half.

Coach said it was not called, but they practiced it all week. The snap was high, and the receiver did his job.

Sorry birdsfan, I'll let you back in. I was just stoked about the last few minutes of the half!!!

Half time 28 - 21 St X

Nice job sticking with the route and being wide open in the end zone!!!!

High snap on the FG, holder throw it for a TD!!!!!!

Wow! What a play!!

Refering to Dr Stranglove^^^ I agree, thats a big IF. Kind of a weird movie.

Pres is all girls. The above enrollment number is wrong though, unless you are doubling for being all girls. They were at 334 in 05-06, should be about the same this year. Pres has a pretty solid team after dealing with coaching turmoil a few years ago. Mercy is at 444 FYI, all girls of course. See link http://www.archlou.org/archlou/highschool

I love the way Deuce runs over tacklers!

Yeah they practiced on the baseball field the 1st day (football field was used by X) and they used the main field the next 2 days.

Which brings up the point about KY's small county size and large county number. I'm not sure why they did it that way, and it will never change now, but there are simply too many counties.

I finally saw some tape of the Trinity - Henry Clay game. Stein had about 6 seconds on every throw. I seriously doubt X will give him the time he's accustomed to lately, unless Beatty is right and the oline is that much improved. We'll see. Got Tigers! Good game to everyone though.

I knew they could do it, because they were the hardest hitting team that St X played this year. Not ONE of the hardest. THE hardest hitters. You know it's a cinderella story when, and this is my fav part of the story, Central had not even used their mascot all season. Don't know why, maybe they hadn't in years. In fact, they still weren't several games into the playoffs. Then a few games back, they figured they better find the mascot uni (it was sitting in the coaches office) dust her off and put her to use. Thats classic!! Congrats Jackets. St X fan everywhere is proud of you!

Here'a detail. This is the first time Holy Cross has beaten PRP in their 22 year history!!! Go Cougars. This shows you that any team can win on any given day. In any sport. HC was down 10 in the 3rd QTR, when they had a 17 - 0 run :eek:. Lots of easy baskets. Adam Delph had 26 for PRP.

Oddly enough when I was younger, I had a race team called "Kamikaze Racing", meant to imply I would do anything on a track, including hit you to win. Then I met a WWII vet who watched me race and he showed me the error of my ways. Had my dad been alive, he would have felt the same as he was stationed in the Pacific as well. Sometimes we don't realize we are being insensitive.

Lost in those number Bluegrass put up is another point I've always found interesting. Briefly - In Louisville ONLY Parochial enrollment - est 12,505 (12,305 + est 200 for new school St Mary) Catholic HS enrollment - 6,014 Where did the other 6,491 students go? Unlikely to another private, which cost more. Very likely to a public, which cost nothing. My friends who have done this call it "found money" Anyway, this is why any proposals that have been put forward actually HURT public schools more than help. These 6,491 will be penalized, (sit out for a year) which will diminish the public programs even further. I don't think people realize the numbers involved here. This obviously applies more to Louisville than a rural school which is a whole different ballgame.
