Final.

Holy Cross leads Trimble County 51-0 at the half. It was 39-0 and a running clock at the end of the first quarter.

And rolling to his left (not to his right). That made the throw even more impressive to me since he was relying mostly on that right arm and not using as much of his body or momentum.

ESPN is saying that Hendrickson will not be playing tonight.

I hope so as well. I'll be there in white surrounded probably by lots of black and gold. I was just having fun with @theguru's injury report regarding the Bengals status.

Bengals - Doubtful

A white out with a whole bunch of black and yellow.

It was certainly odd for me to see my former colleagues on the other side of the field in green and white.

Stat summary is on its way.

Excuse me, what is this "win" thing that you are talking about? Can you explain what that is?

Last year was unfortunate for the Indians with injuries to so many players. It was just a couple years ago that this set of players was small middle school champions in NKY.

Nelson Perrin III and Bruce Arlinghaus are co-Offensive Coordinators.

I am still scheduled to go to 4 more Bengals games this year (I share tickets). It still may be bad, but at least there is something new to look forward to.

We can laugh about Joe Flacco, but the Bengals are getting him for practically nothing. I like him better than Jameis Winston. This may be a "Hail Mary" for the Bengals' season, but at least we need to give them credit for thinking outside the box and trying to win. Maybe Joe F. can pick up the offense playbook faster than Winston. Maybe the Bengals just needed another quarterback named "Joe" to succeed.

Can I possibly blame a "Waning Gibbous" on adverse high school football results?

Break out the hoodie.

Yeah, I wondered what that was all about when I saw that. It didn't seem like he was having a bad year. He was good in coverage and had 25 total tackles in 4 games. There has to be more to this story. I still have my Pratt Bengals jersey although it is in the pile of things to go to St. Vincent DePaul.

What? And miss a "white out" against Pittsburgh? ?

Yeah, Holy Cross!
