9 -1 Top of 5th .... Beechwood

8-0 Beechwood bottom of 3rd

Word on the street ... Beechwood is up 5-0 top of the 3rd

Or ... could it be that the coach understood how hostile the environment was ... and decided that it would be better (better mentally that is) for Ethan to come straight to the mound and pitch? If there is anyone who understands the value of a good warm up in any sport ... it is me ... so I definitely understand where you are coming from. At the same time ... every once in a while a coach feels like they need to take a different approach (especially in high pressure situations) ... Or .. I suppose you could always ask the head coach what his thought process was?

Whether you like Harry or not .... if he isn't a domestic terrorist (which I don't think he is) ... then he is a TRAITOR! I know this is from Harry--but I just watched an interview where this tool said the exact same thing on TV: “Clive Bundy does not recognize the United States,” Reid said. “The United States, he says, is a foreign government. He doesn’t pay his taxes. He doesn’t pay his fees. And he doesn’t follow the law. He continues to thumb his nose at authority.” I will say the same thing that the immigration whiners cry about constantly: "THIS IS AMERICA--DO IT OUR WAY ... OR LEAVE AND NEVER COME BACK" ... pretty funny how a certain group will never figure out the the common man is finally starting to realize that a certain side talks out of both sides of their mouth. I love it ... the guy has, on national television, said that he does not recognize our government ... he doesn't pay his taxes (which I am sure most of you do). Please explain to me (those of you who support this moron) why you refuse to hold this person to the same standards that you most likely hold yourself to? I mean ... really .. how many times have we heard from a certain member ... that Obama is not American born? Not sure how you see things .. but isn't someone who renounces our government the same as someone who is "not American"? I could care less what this guy does .... but don't go on national TV ... and talk about how you don't recognize the United States government .. and you refuse to pay taxes of nearly all of the rest of us do. Not to mention ... our government avoids possible confrontation by pulling back and they are the bad guys? Okay ... whatever. Remember .. some of Tim McVeigh's logic as to why he bombed OKC ... was centered around our governments handing of Waco and Ruby Ridge. I pray to goodness that the right keeps pushing moronic situations like this .. they won't ever get re-elected!

And again ... I was, have, and will continue to address the only points that I have tried to make ... 1. Don't post information from "sources" when the poster admits upfront that it is not verified (and specifically the fact that all athletics could be stopped if Fairview takes a certain course of action). 2. The KHSAA will never close down all athletic programs at a school .. simply because they have never taken the path of penalizing kids who were not involved. I intentionally did NOT talk about what Fairview did or did not do. I NEVER EVEN brought it up. And most IMPORTANTLY--I NEVER QUESTIONED ANYONE WHO HAS DISCUSSED THE ALLEGATIONS. Do you know why? Because I have zero knowledge or understanding. That does not mean I don't believe you ... or I am questioning you. It means that I do not know or care about what Fairview did. As I said before ... the biggest losers here could potentially be the kids who live in district .. who have done nothing wrong (in direct relation to the possibly that sidelinedoc posted). Ask yourself .. who are the potential biggest losers here? It isn't just the kids/teams that got beat by a team that was not following the rules. Maybe it is the kids who were pushed aside at their own school ... who lived in district .. did nothing wrong for kids who should not have been there. If sidelinedoc's self admitted unverified comment turns out to be true (the KHSAA may shut down all sports at Fairview) ... I will be the first one to say I am wrong .. and apologize.

Find where I have even spoke about that at all ... I have NOT. And will not. What about the girls on the cross country team? Should their program be closed down because of the idiots in the football program? You tell me? Again .. I have made it clear that I am not addressing the people involved who are involved. I am speaking for the ones who are not involved.

Who do you go to? If you go to the KHSAA ... they are going to follow their hierarchy ... did you talk to the principal, did you talk to the superintendent? What do you do then? Go to the cops? Sure ... of course. Maybe that is what we would do. But I can't tell you that because I am not involved. But it is never as easy as it seems from the outside.

Okay .. we are getting closer now ... the problem with what sidelinedoc said .. is that he ADMITTED that the comment was not verified. My point there ... why spread it if he is not sure? My point there .... we have kids who are innocent who are going to believe that they are not going to have an athletics program because of the situation. So .. that is where I am. I really don't care what happens with the ones at Fairview who are involved. I think that everyone needs to remember that there are kids at Fairview who were not involved. We can't forget about them ... because the truth is ... they have suffered in a different way than most understand. If sidelinedoc feels slighted by me ... I apologize. You guys obviously have more insight than I do. Which is why I didn't go into that part.

Nope ... not going to be satisfied until the adults in charge (there and on this website) quit acting like they are more important than the kids at Fairview who have done nothing wrong. Roll your eyes all you want ... but your posts have always suggested the same thing that I said to Ram (that if this were your team .... you would fight to the death to defend the kids who did nothing wrong). Right or wrong?

Fired up? No ... Tired of people who try to pass speculation off as fact? TIRED OF IT. It comes down to this ... someone needs to remember the kids at Fairview who didn't do anything wrong ... who go to the correct school based on their address, etc. There are adults on here who seem to forget that point. The people at Fairview who are the root cause are the ones who need to be dealt with. The kids at Fairview who are not involved .... are the ones who are going to get screwed here because the lynch mob wants blood.

Seriously ... you are clueless. I made one point in my first point in this thread ... the point is that the KHSAA would NEVER cancel all athletics at Fairview .. (which is what sidelinedoc mentioned .. and even clearly said it was not confirmed). From there .. your lack of reading comprehension led you to give examples of how Fairview cheated ... (which I NEVER even discussed). Seriously .. could you be anymore clueless?

Again ... LEARN TO READ ... this time .... sidelinedoc's comments ... he said himself that it was NOT VERIFIED. But ... just like all of you internet cowboys ... seems like you never let the facts (even from your buddy) get in the way of a good argument. Seriously ... "you heard" ... "sources" .. bull .. doc said it himself that it was not verified .. and you call me out again ... great work. I will say it one more time ... the KHSAA will not drop all athletic events at Fairview. If either of you .. or your "sources" are correct ... I will never post on this site again. Are you willing to put your money where your mouth is? (DOUBT IT)

Not sure how or why you are calling me out in regard to examples of foul play ... matter of fact ... I intentionally did NOT speak about my opinion as to whether Fairview is guilty in this situation. Matter of fact ... I could care less as to whether Fairview did this or not. I do, however, care very much about the part where sidelinedoc put something on this board that he admitted was not verified. I think I made my point pretty well when in regard to the fact that the KHSAA is NEVER going to shut down an entire athletic program (because it would affect innocent kids). I am sure they will get some sort of punishment .. but it is pathetic to think that the KHSAA (or even spread that speculation) would give Fairview the death penalty. Seriously ... spend a few minutes actually reading what I wrote .. as opposed to throwing crap out there that I NEVER even brought up.

Yes ... I would (and you are actually proving my point--but in a different way than I intended). The KHSAA would never pull a move like that for a couple reasons ... 1. The KHSAA has never penalized an entire athletics program and most importantly .. the innocent kids who will most likely be the only ones around to feel the pain. 2. They wouldn't have to shut the program down. If there are 50 kids on the football team .. and only 20% are left ... well .. my math isn't great sometimes .. but I haven't seen a football team (for example) play with 10. The one thing that I always get from your posts, Ram, is that you truly care about the kids in your program. And I would have no trouble betting on the fact that you would do/say everything possible to ensure that the 20% who is doing things the right way ... are not penalized by the stupidity of adults.

I love it ... "without absolute confirmation but I was told by a SOURCE that IF Fairview accepts the penalties imposed without appeal, it will only be football .... " Sounds like it is time to 1. Quit posting things that you even admit to not having confirmation on. 2. Find a new "source". If you think that the KHSAA and or Julian Tackett would close down athletics at Fairview based on what your "source" told you ... then I feel sorry for you. People can say a lot of things about the KHSAA .. but the day that they start shutting down entire programs for infractions is the day they have sealed their fate forever. The KHSAA is never going to penalize all athletes at a school by shutting their programs down due to the infractions of one sport. People may disagree .. but I would be willing to say that the KHSAA will eventually speak to the fact that a large reason why they are investigating is to ensure that the "legal" athletes are not penalized by the stupidity of others.

As quick or quicker... maybe? Powell probably has that edge. I am not so sure it is as cut and dry as you think ... ... I certainly hope that Stringer is not as fast as Powell ... tying bricks to Stringers legs to slow him down probably won't go over very well at practice. Pretty sure that Stringer ... in a straight line ... is as fast as anyone in NKY. Keep in mind--I am the guy on this site who usually debunks the "4.4/4.5 legit forty time" knuckleheads ...

Actually ... both of you are probably right. There were 10 different guys who had significant time on the D-Line (there were 3 others that played We definitely had some guys going both ways ... but ... depth allowed us to make some good moves (for instance--Combs played 3-5 defensive snaps total in the 2nd half). By the end of the game .. there may have been two guys going both ways (and they were skill guys).

Ha, ha ... I don't think you get it .. but then again ... nice try. Trust me ... cowards like you never have the courage to actually sit down and have a conversation. Hiding on a message board is all you have ... ha, ha ... I should have known you would never make an attempt to actually determine fact .. and what is not. "Kids you intimidate" ... now I know you are liar ... name one (PM me if you have any ... I won't hold my breath) If anything ... it is too much in the other direction. That's okay ... little boy is getting his attention goo goo ga ga .... Oh yeah ... your original post is not factually correct .. which appears to be a violation of site rules: 6. No putting incorrect or false information on the site.

If that is what I am looking for ... I certainly would have no trouble saying that to you. (Yeah .. that's right ... I would ruin my career and future for 2 seconds of wasted energy). You see .. the difference between someone like you .. and someone like me ... is that I have no problem having a face to face conversation with you. The real "clown" is the one who runs their mouth on the internet ... as opposed to confronting the people that you choose to slam. And .. I am the one who understands this all better now ... this is the only thing you have ... you obviously don't have the courage to converse with the people you slam. I love it ... "clown" ... did you think of that one your self? I am not the one who is blatantly and intentionally throwing things on the wall .. and praying that they stick.

Not sure what your problem is with me ... but if you want to man up and have a conversation about any topic .. I will be at school from 2:30 pm to 7ish ... (Gotta feeling we won't be seeing you in the near future ... or ... anytime).

Thanks ... the bad part is that he wont get better. "Brash" about what? Trying to figure out what happened to a player who reminded me of a good friend who probably wont make it through the week? I guess i dont see what in the world you guys are talking about. It doesnt take a genius to be confused as it appeared that #53 was no longer on your roster. When Mayfieldsportsfan told me who it was ... it made a ton more sense because the young man in question was listed on the roster wearing a different number ... and after looking ... he was listed as having the different number last year. Your buddies were the ones who were "brash" .... and decided to act like there was some huge conspiracy. If i was trying to mess with you guys .... I have a feeling that i could do that in 3 words or less. For once ... why dont you call out your fanbase for assuming that the world starts and ends at the Mayfield city limits.

Thanks! Now that I hear the name ... definitely sounds more familiar (remind me not to look at the rosters on the KHSAA website anymore).

Good one guys .... more proof that you constantly show your true colors. Whoever was 53 last year reminded me of a guy I played with when I was in school. Not real big ... but quick off the ball ... and scrappy. Yeah well .. my buddy that #53 reminded me of ... is really sick ... having a very hard time (like .. not making it type of hard time) Lord forbid that certain players catch my eye ... remind me of guys I play with. Not to mention that the guy is no longer on your roster ... If I need to put up some clips of #53 ... I will be more than willing to do it ... real classy.

The only thing "odd" ... is why you guys are in stealth mode ....
