A song sung by a frog from an old Bugs Bunny Cartoon You old timers will remember this one! "Hello my honey, hello my baby, hello my ragtime gal! Oh, honey...send me a kiss by wire, baby my hearts on fire! If you refuse me, honey, you'll lose me, and you'll be left alone! Oh baby, honey, tell me I'm your own!" My apologies if I broke rule 13 (grammar), I wrote it out of memory.:jump:

"FOR THE LAST TIME......QUIT EATIN' THE NEW YELLOW FOOTBALLS!!!" "SPIT IT OUT!...IT'S NOT A LEMONDROP!!"

Rockcastle has a pretty good freshman group coming on. They are currently 3-0 with a 6-0 win over Bell Co. a week or so ago as well as wins versus Whitley and Casey. This was without their best freshman running back who is a starter on the varsity squad and a quality freshman lineman who is also starting on the varsity. They are a nasty little group who not only "like" to win, but also "hate" losing, if you know what I mean when it comes to attitude. They have some tough games coming up later though that will surely test them. One game in particular that will be interesting is 10/9 away at Corbin. Keep an eye on them in the coming years, if they stay healthy and together, they may improve on the "Rock" legacy.

Southern sounded like they might be coming to life even though they lost to Harrison County last week. I've got kinfolk on Southern's team and one starts for the varsity. If the Brown boy gets any blocking help from his team, he's got the jets to rack up some points. You've got to stick with blood....Good luck Southern!!

I think it is going to be a hard hitting game in which the winner will be determined by who makes fewer mistakes and turnovers. Early turnovers deflated Rockcastle last week when Bell came to town. They couldn't seem to right the ship and then got caught up in the snowball effect. I hope that they learned from their mistakes and come out fired up to win in what will be a very physical game.

Many thanks for that explanation! I just wanted to be straight on this rule as it is new to me and had never been called in a previous game before that one Saturday. My son has always done a considerable amount of cut blocking on the line as center, but this season he has been asked to shotgun and this hadn't come up before. I also appreciate all the typing you had to do to get the rules across. Thanks, Papagrit :thumb:

I have been reading the posts on cutblocking above and certainly appreciate the input. I had never heard of this rule until this past Saturday when my son was called for illegal blocking when, as center, he "cut blocked" a blitzing linebacker after engaging the nose guard in a normal straight up block after snapping shotgun. I asked the refs after the game what he had done wrong and they explained to me that as center, he could not cut block at all when he was snapping shotgun whether it be a noseguard or linebacker blitzing. (This was a middle school game) So....if I'm reading what offside has written correctly, my son can cut block noseguards after the snap as long as he doesn't delay his movement and he is NOT allowed to cut block any blitzing linebackers as there would be a delay after the snap before he hit them? Am I understanding correctly?

Not that I'm a big Boyle fan...because I'm not, but I saw these boys scrimmage down at Jabez during camp. They have a strong secondary and an excellent passing game that is going to be tough to beat. It will take a punishing offensive ground game to eat clock (and keep that offense of the field) with an exceptional secondary defense to keep that offense off balance to beat them. The Generals will not have enough "Beans and Taters" offense to grind them down or secondary to handle them. Boyle 35 Lafayette 14

Best of luck to Madison Southern this next week with Harrison County. Gonna have to turn up the nasty on the offensive line to get some points fellas. Rico can't be your only option, because all of the defenses just key on him. Find some heart in the trenches to free him up and the wins will follow. Your defensive stands in the red zone this last week with Rockcastle, even though the weather may have had something to do with it, were still impressive. Play hard!!

I personally knew Coach Scenters and he is a great young coach that the Garrard County fans need to get behind and support. I watched him come up through the ranks from Middle School coaching at Berea and he is an excellent, positive influence for young athletes. They are lucky to get him and I wish him the best with his team play this year and from now on. I would have been proud to have him coach my boys in football, but, it just didn't work out that way. Good luck Mark, especially against Somerset as they are going to be extra tough to beat. Since the games at home, I gotta go with GCHS. Your ol' PPG football buddy.

I suspect it's going to be a battle in the trenches...gotta pick the ROCK at home even though Bell is the favorite. ROCK 20 Bell Co. 17
