Congrats to Central and a great season for Belfry.

SMASH is right about one thing. I should have stated that Monroe beat PT with heart, a great coach and teamwork instead of the way I previously stated. I sometimes become too overzealous in my post as a fan and forget that there are young boys becoming young men on the field. It will not be the last time or the first time that have I put my foot in my mouth .

Yes and pleasantly surprized with the visitor's facilities.

Great game . Congrats Central. Central was an excellant host.

No you are wrong. You cannot take those three things from the Monroe kids. ,

Don't worry about it. Everyone has at least once in their lifetime opened their mouth and inserted their foot in it.

Monroe is not the same team that you witnessed in the scrimmage with Wayne. The offensive line has become a solid unit. If the defense plays their usual tenacious defensive game, then Coach Petett's deep playbook and Monroe's offensive line performance will decide the outcome of the game. Again it is up to the offensive line's performance. In the region Monroe has flown under everyone's radar this year for sure. PT overlooked them . Central could also be overlooking Monroe . I sure hope so. It makes possible victory sweeter. Monroe 26 Cenral 20

Warren East has proven me wrong 3 times. I hope they win, but I am not going to pick them to win this time either. WHY one may ask? I may jinx their playoff run if I pick them to win. Hope to see them in the state title game. Prove me wrong again Warren East Owensboro 18 Warren East 14

I have resided in 4 towns 5 to 6 times larger than Paducah. I just can't buy the city thing as an excuse for the coaches' antics. Concerning the kids I can seen your point. Their enviroment at home does play a huge roll in their character. Thats when you need a good coach who can coach the sport but also provide some direction on character and life. Monroe is like all other counties with it's share of crime, murder and drugs. Many kids on Monroe's team come from single parent homes. Some even are raised by their grandparents, uncles, aunts, and even friends. I just cannot excuse the obscene language I heard on the field that night. With that said. I thought your QB was very impressive. 31 was a beast with good speed. D line was the quickest that I had seen in several years. They just swarmed to the ball where ever it was at on the field.

Monroe 28 South Warren 21 Expecting a more competitive game out of South Warren this rematch.

PT's coach had a filty mouth that was shameful. At the end of the game the mf-bombs coming from the mouths of pt players, coaches, and parents was a disgrace . Does the coach think that he is auditioning for the part of Bear Bryant in the Junction Boys made for TV movie???/ Tsyoung is right about guidance.......none what so ever from their coaching staff . What a waste . PT could be playing for the championship with their speed and talent.

Monroe County had 3 things Paducah Tilghman did not have tonight . They are 1. One Great Coach , who the kids respect and love ...... 2. Players that play as a Team........ 3. Heart

Congrats Warren East. I did not think they could do it. They proved me wrong.

WOW! I did not see that coming!

Adair actually has some good athletes and size but seem to lose their momentum when the other teams score first. If the other team was up by 14 the Adair Kids seem to lose their mental toughness and give in some. The community support for Adair football is just not there either. IMO They have the kids and talent ...I just don't know what they are missing. Looking forward to the game between Monroe and PT. If Monroe can defend against the pass this game will go back and forth till the end. Monroe 24 PT 21

FC will strike early and put the game away midway the 2nd qtr. FC 42 SW 7

Is PT expecting the same Monroe team as last year and an easy win? I believe it will not be an easy game for either team.

Monroe needs to be ready for an all out battle with an emotional Heath team. This could be Heath's last high school football game for the history books. The Heath kids will be giving it everthing they have to move on. Heath, Lone Oak, and Reidland will consolidate next year and become the new Mccracken County High school.

Good football program begins with 4 huge key influences. In order of importance I believe they are an excellant coaching staff , above average community support, good facilities and the size of enrollment. Enrollment size is a key like it or not. Some schools have the enrollment just not the other 3 key influences.

Maybe the word melee would be more satisfactory. What would have been the outcome if both coaches and teams exchange fist instead of handshakes?

I like the way the Green County players keep shaking hands and pretend there is no mad, ranting, jumping , dancing head coach on the field . Got to give the Green County kids credit for holding their composure versus their head coach.

No way, I thought it was the blue moon that was shining that night. lol Really Warren East is a very good team and out played Monroe on both sides of the ball . Monroe was not at their top level of play that night. Nothing more nothing less.
