No, the team lost. I don't know why you chose not to answer the question. Wait a minute, yes I do. Young Mr. Rayburn is going to be a good ballplayer if he is any relation to Brandi . Congrats to Elliott on the win. Those Faulkner boys are really tough.

You don't have to look to try and find me. I'm here. I stand by my earlier post. LCA will win this game. Raceland still isn't ready to take it to the next level. In case I'm wrong I do hope she knows some new recipies for crow because I believe I've already tried them all.

You said " The audacity of some people who think Raceland can't beat LCA". Well I am some of those people. So yes, you were talking about me. I've never seen a group of people so uptight, and to think that the LCA game isn't even till next week. I hope for your sake that you live close to KDMC. :scared:

I'm not miserable at all. I'm very happy. I'm retired, and have enough of a nest egg saved up to enjoy life. You read way too much into stuff. I don't think Raceland will beat LCA. No more, no less. Ram was on here stating he was mad because Raceland doesn't get enough respect thru out the state. I gave him the reason why. I respect Raceland and what they have done. I stated that they have proven they are the best team in the Boyd/Greenup/ Carter Co. area, but to get that respect thru out the rest of the state they would have to advance further than the reg. final. I'm sure Coach Vanderhoof would agree. You obviously take things way too personally on here. Maybe you are the one who needs to take a step back, not take things so personally, and enjoy life.

And you obviously haven't been paying much attention if you think Ashland is my team. :sssh::walk::walk::walk:

I don't remember saying Ashland was done for the season, but that it was going to be another long year. I also was man enough to admit I was wrong after the Russell game. I will also admit I was wrong if Raceland beats LCA. I really don't know why you're using me as a source. I do believe this is a PREDICTION thread, not a factual truth of who is going to win thread. I'm sure I can go back, and dig up some post where you have been wrong. Will I also be able to find where you were man enough to admit you were wrong?

You can get mad as you want, and be as mad as you want at me, but respect has to be earned, not given. I believe Raceland is respected as being the top team in the Ashland/Boyd/ Greenup counties, but that's about it. If you want to have the respect of the rest of the state then they need to get past the regionals. Trust me, I'm rooting for Raceland, but they need to clear that next hurdle to earn the respect around the whole state that you are hungry for.

Comforting words? Do you really need to be comforted about a football game? If you do, then I'll run to Wal-Mart and buy you a security blanket for you to hold during the game. Hey, I would love to see Raceland win it all, but they need prove to me that they can take their program to the next level, and get past a regional final. Don't worry though, I'm sure all of the Ashland fans will be on here soon to post something that will be like being picked up, and patted on the back until you burp. :lol:

I hate to be so blunt, but does it really matter? Whoever wins this game will get beat next week by LCA. I know the Rams beat them earlier in the year, but I feel they got lucky. There's no way that Raceland can beat LCA twice in one year. LCA is the better team, and will prove it next week. The BGP pollsters had it right at the beginning of the year when they had LCA ranked #1. Well I guess that's enough about next week. There were be plenty of time to talk about it starting late Friday night. My thoughts on this week. Raceland 38 Fairview 21

How come you don't have the same love fest with Russell? I can sick of all the sloppy kisses between you guys as well. It's enough to make a grown man puke. Sorry about that. As far as my prediciton. Highlands 56 Ashland 6 Sorry Graybeard.:scared:

I agree that Rowan County should be the hands down favorite to win the region. I think Ashland is a distant second, but I think the coaching talents of Bill Bradley will help make up the difference.

Great accomplishment for Evan. I know from previous conversations that his dad is very proud of him, and rightfully so. :thumb:

If you would have asked me three weeks ago I would have gone with Lawrence County, but after seeing how bad Rowan County laid the lumber to them, I really don't know. Lawrence County is a tough team to figure out. Greenup County has a fine QB in Craft, but they don't seem to have anybody that can catch the ball. I'll go with Lawrence County by 8. Lawrence County 28 Greenup Co. 20

Do you think it would be more beneficial to Russell if they were to play up, and move to AAAA? I for one think it would. I realize that Russell has been very successful in AAA, but I believe the district which they play in hurts them by not having good enough competition. Mason County is the only team in their district currently that will provide that competition. I realize that the local AAAA district isn't great at this time, but I believe it's an improvement to their current district. Can a moderator add a poll to this please. I'm not sure how to do it. Thanks.

This game reminded me a lot of the Ashland game. Rusell kept it close for a little over a half, but then they just wore out in the 2nd half, and Simon Kenton ran away with it. The Russell players were once again bening over at the waist in the 2nd half. This team simply isn't in shape, and they can't tackle very well at all. At least Coach Kidwell won't have to wait as long as Coach Dodd did the past few years to get all of his boys out for the team.
