Football Die Hard

I'm not a CCH fan; but I can tell you how wrong you are. People in NKY don't disrespect mountain teams at all. However, the fact that you're from the mountains does not give your team any special advantage in toughness, in heart, or in effort. You may get tired of hearing that NKY has success in football; but that isn't the fault of anyone in NKY. It's just the truth.

Well said, Birdsfan :thumb:

Fill up the buses CCH fans and roll down the road. Bring home a winner!:dancingpa

For some reason I thought Jonhson Central stadium was bigger

in terms of seating. Something like 10-thousand seater. I guess

the guy who told me that was wrong. Never been. Looking

forward to it. Hoping for a CCH win.

Hadn't heard that. What happened?

Way to go CCH. Congratulations coaches and players. You made

us all proud. And again this Friday. WITH A SPIRIT THAT WILL NOT DIE!!

CovCath wins this one but there are a couple of sub-plots that are very interesting. First, the Woodford coaches traded tape with CovCath only Woodford gave CovCath tape from 2007. Second, word has it a NKY head coach gave Woodford tape on CovCath in violation of the standing NKY rule not to give tape out on other NKY schools.

Petty...you can't throw THAT out there and not give more specifics. Throw down more details and names or you are just stirring the pot with nothing to back it up. How/why would ANOTHER NKY coach hand over tape on CCH? And who did it? :fire:

Personally I think this is just another issue for people to complain about. The coach plays who he thinks will give him the best shot of winning, regardless of it being senior day. Thats like saying well its so and so's birthday so he should start this game. People need to toughen up and get over it, its sports. Also maybe Covcath shouldnt of scheduled St X as their Senior day game.

:thumb: Great points.

When Covington Catholic and Beechwood play the house is always rockin.

There are many Colonel-Tiger connections that make it a good rivalry.

Didn't the Beechwood Head Coach go to CCH?:argue:

CCH wins it by 2 TD's. Who is QB-ing this one?

Best of luck to both teams. Game place/time?

Is there anyway we can see who the 7 bgp'rs are that voted for CovCath. :scared:

Why do you feel the need to know that?

What a game!! Congratulations Beechwood. Highlands had a great season, too. Must have been a great game to see.

I guess I am in the minority. I thought earlier in the week that BW wins this one, but my gut says NCC wins this one pulling away in the 4th qtr.

I think it is going to be great. competitive game. Looking forward to it!

I'm going with Beechwood in this one

Those were the days, my friend. We thought they'd never end....(you know the rest) :dancingpa

Good Luck, Colonels!! Fight to the finish. With A Spirit That Will Not Die. The True Blue Fans will be cheering you on.:ylsuper:

This won't hurt a bit...I promise!:fight:

Well said. Classroom first. Sports second. Not only is the class of 2012 talented on the field but they are loaded up with some very bright young men.

"seniors in training" That is right on

Heard AJ "chuckwagon" Smith committed to Murray St. Congrats!

I'll get on board with this, for sure. Congrats, AJ! You deserve it! AJ is a great kid who comes from a great family. He works hard and it's nice to see him have things go his way!

Let it go people. Sounds like too much in-fighting. Sounds like from these posts that everyone knows who 'everyone' is. You all need to take your spat off BGP....theoldguy included. I think the Guru would agree. This tit for tat has gone ugly and over the edge. Let's talk real football issues and not individual agendas and attacks:ylsuper:

I know these look like jail stripes, but I'm working tonight. I swear!

I should show my son this thread so he has a better understanding of high school sports and why I'm not spending thousand's of dollars to send him there..... I know there will be a response about the education being so much better than public schools... but I know a lot of successful people that went to public schools and a lot of not so successful going to Cov Cath, etc.. I know this type of stuff goes on in nearly every high school but would not dare to believe it is as bad as this program right now. Parents and "supporters" need to take their concerns "privately" to the administration and if they don't get the answer they want..... quit supporting the school.

 

I told my son it is a better feeling to beat a school like Cov Cath than to get into a "click" like them.... yes, cov Cath will beat most schools 9 out of 10 times, but the one time is sooooo worth it.

hja1224...IMO your post is out of line. You are showing your hypocritic side. You say "this" is why you are not sending you kid to CCH.. yet you take up time on this thread to bash the school and point out that you know plenty of "not so successful" people who attended the school? What is that? IMO you are doing exactly what you are condemning others for doing!

Tell "team mom" that "former pee wee coach" said she looked fat in those jeans and her chilli tasted like garbage. Sit back and watch the fireworks.

That is hilarious!

Let the coaches run the program. I think most people know when negativity is being spewed out of the bitter barn mouths. I do believe that 'sometimes' coaches play favorites.. but for the most part the kid who can get the job done is the one on the field.

My advice to original poster: Stay OUT of the gossip stew. Keep your head down. Avoid the negativity. Most level-headed people/players/parents know who supports a program and who doesn't. Gravitate toward the people you absolutely know are on your side. The outsiders will eventually join in or they will stay there....on the outside!

IMO The freshman team at cov Cath is very talented. They have like 40 players on the roster but WAY too many are playing both ways. By the 4th they are too beat to pull out the win. In the three losses for the frosh..the strategy was to have 6 or 7 players play both ways and they lost the game in the last minutes in the 4th. The games won...there were more players used and the victories came. What is going there? Are the coaches only playing favorites? If that is the case..that is wrong. And worse, half of the 40 won't come back because they are being neglected or they go in for a play and are yanked out. The Frosh Colonels are .500 now. What should happen? Give those on the sidelines an opportuntity and maybe someone gets a surprise.
