Very nice!

It makes me wonder if they know that the school was not named for the general, but his wife.
They don't, and if they did they would be amazed to learn that she cared for soldiers on both sides .

This is spreading like wildfire, there is a petition going around to change the name of Paducah Tilghman high school as well....

It's going to be a tough one for PT. They showed some excellent qualities last week, but could not build the whole performance. The question this week is can they build off that loss and improve some on some of the mistakes they made?
-
Late in on this because I have been a bit busy this week, but I'll give my take.
Tilghman had its opportunities, but repeatedly blew its chances. The two major factors were conditioning and turnovers. PT dominated the first quarter, running the ball at will and pounding out 4-6 yards per carry; as well as controlling the pace on defense. But playing ironman football with most starters going both ways wore on them and cramps became a huge issue. As the game progressed it seemed to put PT into a different scheme of offense, which resulted in some awful interceptions. This gave MC the momentum it needed to cover the gap.
PT could have easily gone in at the half up 27-6, as a kick returned for a td was called back and they ran out of time on the MC 3 yard line as the fist half expired. These timing and miscues cost them, and the result was a overtime loss.
Overall though, I like the direction Duncan is taking them.
With our schedule I have no doubt we will take our lumps on a bumpy road, but Duncan seems to be a level-headed old school coach that can build the strong foundation we need to get PT headed in the right direction.

A shillelagh (/ʃᵻˈleɪli/ shi-LAY-lee or /ʃᵻˈleɪlə/ shi-LAY-lə; Irish: sail éille [ˈsalʲ ˈeːl̠ʲə], "thonged willow") or blackthorn stick is a wooden walking stick and club or cudgel, typically made from a stout knotty stick with a large knob at the top, that is associated with Ireland and Irish folklore.

Cards looked good, UC could not get anything going.

Nice win T
-
Great win Tigers

A bit of a surprise, but as usual, Etown is a better team than given credit for.

Good night for the KY teams vs. out-of state opponents.
-
That is sounding good.
What kind of seats do you have?
They are all good, it is a small local venue in Paducah.
Maiden Alley Cinema.

At home tonight watching Mayfield play Union City TN on a local broadcast.
In case anyone is concerned or surprised, Mayfield appears to be good,-again-

Gotta pull double duty tomorrow night, game at 7, Patrick Sweany concert after-

Good points and assessment, It just a surprise because usually this draws plenty of back and forth bravado and jabberwocky- regardless of facts!
It is indeed a fresh start for both teams and the truth is no one really knows what to expect.

This topic normally gets 10+ pages of banter......

Tilghman's speed is always a concern. Does McCracken still have the playmakers to keep up? Looking forward to the new styles on both sides.
So what have you seen of your offense so far?
-
I guess I will go first-
I'm not sure if anyone can make a clear pick considering all the factors for both teams:
New coach, check
New offense, check
New defense, check
New QB, check
Talent turnover, check
Both schools are facing huge changes, but seem to be excited about their new coaches.
PT looks towards a new ground and pound attack, whereas MC looks to continue to spread it out.
Who wins Saturday night? My guess is the team that controls the time of possession.
-
Coaching is always important, but a bad coach can win some games with great talent.
But put that coach against a good one in a tough game and he will lose.
Taking things to the next level, All pieces need to be in place to win championships, Coaching, players, and staff.

Great piece, very true words!
-
Great work as usual!

The common sense side of me says this is ridiculous, but the breakdown of the rules kind of explains it .
That being said baseball is a game of honor and respect, when it takes a team of lawyers to declare a winner it's a sad state of affairs.

Anybody know of any other schools around that has animal killers on their team???

This point seems to get overlooked often these days, and I have always thought and been taught that is the most important aspect of gameplay on the field.
If you don't control the trenches, every thing else is less efficient.
If you control the LOS, you can run any offense you want with efficiency.
As well as
If you control the LOS, your defense will feast.
There are other factors, but this is battle #1, and everything else depends on it.
