Not sure about a statue, but "Dale Mueller Field" has a certain ring to it. Or maybe they can name the new fieldhouse down in Death Valley after him...

Why are there no replays on the KHSAA broadcast? There were last year.

Maybe that's what he meant, but if you write "longest ever", there's only one interpretation...

"So, I admit it. I was blinded by the light (revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night; Manfred Mann, 1976)." Although originally written and performed by Springsteen, he does quote the Manfred Mann variation of the lyric. Springsteen sang "cut loose like a deuce", MM sang "revved up like a deuce." "Here’s my new prediction: Highlands will roll to its seventh straight state championship. According to MaxPreps, such a streak would be the longest ever in American high school football." I started a thread just about a year ago that asked what the record was for most consecutive state championships for a football team. The answer, according to the National Federation of High School Associations was 22. It was answered by Lawnboy13 in this thread: http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-football-high/what-national-record-245550.html

Are the Birds able to throw in the rain, or are they keeping it on the ground?

Are the Birds using their first stringers?

Story I heard about how Highlands became the Bluebirds was that they were the Blue Devils until the clergy in town complained.

I agree, no death penalty for the school. I believe the KHSAA can dictate who they allow to coach, right? That gives them the authority to suspend/ban coaches. What could they do about boosters that are acting (recruiting) without the school's or coach's knowledge?

Okay, I know that the Elder players getting "injured" after a long pass play, or a turnover, probably had absolutely nothing to do with the outcome of the game, but that kinda crap pisses me off! If your guys aren't in shape, or you want to stop the momentum, call a TO! GRRRR!!!

Yes. Sacked, looked like he hurt his throwing shoulder. Hope it's not serious.

Seems like every time the Birds get rolling, an Elder guy goes down.

Looked like a bad snap that went into the endzone, recovered by Elder. TD Elder. 27-14. Can't make mistakes like that against a good team.

I thought Elder got the ball first to start the game. ??????

Birds score on 7 yd pass. 14-7 Elder winning. I don't think the Birds have run the shovel pass once yet, have they? Are they saving it for later , or what?

Another slow start for the Birds, just like early in the year. Thing is, they can't afford to do that against Elder.
