Back to the game...

From Cov Cath’s perspective, the Colonels need to play inspired, clean football.  Take nothing for granted.  Rest assured, the birdies will come ready to play.  If you look back at the course of this rivalry, there are several examples of the second act being a lot closer than the first.  I expect a hard fought, clean football game.  In the end, I hope the Colonels find a way.

Nah, don’t need to set up anything because I know changes are coming.

Insider. Good for you JOAT.

Defend the play.  Stay on your toes.  No excuses.  

If they are locked in and Frederick Douglass keeps winning and everyone else “holds serve”, then that’s a heckuva bad break for Owensboro.

Refresh my memory, are the RPIs “locked” at the end of the regular season, or can they go up with playoff wins and be used for seeding purposes?  In other words, in 5A for example, if Frederick Douglass beats Scott Co in the playoffs, would their RPI be re-calculated and used to determine seeding for the following week?

Brayden Collins looked really good at tailback.  Kid ran really hard and would love to see more of him in the future. 

Definitely became a stronger, more confident runner, as the game progressed. Did a nice job stepping in and stepping up!

I apologize to everyone viewing this thread for my choice of words last night.  Ironically, in calling out non-adult behavior by an adult, I in fact, exhibited the same behavior.  
 

Moving on...

I have not heard what you are saying about Conner's coach, but I am 99% sure he isn't the most disliked coach in N. Ky.

You and I run in different circles.

Dave is a good guy, and while he is admittedly feisty and emotional, calling a person "a zero" is tough.  People get caught up in the moment, you see it at high school basketball games 2x a week where coaches and players "exchange conversation", and while it is 100% wrong on the coach's end, it isn't fatal.  Dave has been a hard-nosed, tough-minded dude since grade school, and while always willing to "walk the walk", he truly is a good dude.  He has never been great at losing, so while disappointed he was whoofing at Colonels last night, not horribly shocked.  Again, is it a bad look?  Sure.  Is it AWFUL?  Probably not.  Not like he was working a chain gang, as an adult, and flipped off another man over a h.s. football game...now that is embarrassing.  😇

Fair perspective, I was teed off last night.  For the record, the woofing was not an exchange. The player did not engage.  
 

Cooper, Conner and HHS are all 2-2 in the district and head to head won’t break the tie.  What are the secondary seeding procedures?

Sweep - let’s call a spade a spade, you were “tip of the spear” when it came to chiding CCH fans during those tough years for the Colonels.  All kinds of humorous hash tags and quips re: aspects of the CCH program that you found amusing.  It’s all good.  
 

But, I don’t see anyone jesting/joking/poking fun, quite the way you did, many, many times.  

I admire you being on BGP when many of your brethren have run for the hills, but, I don’t see any real pokin from CCH faithful.  I maybe wrong.

Don’t throw stones CF. Wasn’t that long ago my friend 

Jeez.  No one’s throwing stones.  If a chain ganger birds a bird, that’s nutty.  The kids going after a fan.  Well, that’s just a kid reacting.  That can happen anywhere.

Thanks again for the reminder - CCH had some really, really tough years and a long, painful, frustrating losing streak to the birdies.  Personally, as I said last week, I pray to the heavens above that no one in Park Hills ever forgets.  Thanks for helping with the reminders.

Why do you say that?

Woofing at opposing players.  Players who said nothing to him.  
 

Anecdotally, I’ve heard he is the most disliked HC in NKY football amongst people in the game.  So, that’s why I said it.  
 

Admittedly, it’s based on second and third hand, but, people I trust, that aren’t prone to hyperbole.  
 

I hope he enjoyed the running clock.

Conner’s head coach is a zero.  Total.  Zero.

A chain gang dude showed BW another type of Bird?  Really?  Yikes.  Hopefully, I misinterpreted.

HHS rolls Conner by 36, in Hebron.

Conner over Cooper by 8.

Cooper over HHS by 27, in Ft Thomas.

What in the wide world of sports is going on?  

I didn’t see anything but a clean game, played by both sides, in terms of sportsmanship.  No issues at all.  Always possible I missed something, but I didn’t see anything from either side that was cause for concern.  Nothing to see here...

I get it and rightly so. CovCath embarrassed Highlands for what the 5 th straight time. 
There are some impressive plays and tds by the Blueboys and the young announcers do a nice job trying to stay Unbias. 
 

Throwback 19 straight wins by Highlands and it gets interesting right? Some of those beat downs by Highlands were criminal. 
 

Highlands will return, be careful of poking the Bear

...and at the time, we heard all about those criminal beat downs, repeatedly.  There was plenty of bear poking when the tables were turned.  Plenty.  Conversely, I don’t see a ton of bear poking here.  Whatever gets you goin, I guess.

Anyone worth their salt, associated with CCH, respects the football program in Ft. Thomas. Moreover, all associated with CCH football should do everything they can to stay out in front of their rival.  I hope they do.  There’s still a lot of score settling left to do.  A.  Lot!  I hope everyone in Park Hills keeps that in mind.  I hope everyone at Cov Cath remembers that long losing streak and some of the embarrassing scores.  Cov Cath has to maintain the challenger’s mindset when it comes to playing their rival.  It’s not just another game on the schedule.  CCH has to maintain the right mindset and put in the hard work because somewhere along the way, maybe even later this year, they’re going to get the Birdies’ best punch.  

Not sure if they’re new this year, but I love Holmes’s new helmets.  Very cool look.

Uh Oh Highlands.

He’s got a great shot at 3,000+. How many did his pop have in high school and how many did Brandon Hatton score at Dixie?

No problem.

Post 74 to be exact. But thanks again.

The only reason Summerkamp is because their 7 footer is sick.

Thanks insider. Read my other post right after.

I could be wrong, but I can't recall hearing that done during the normal pregame intros at Cov Cath in the last 15 or 20 years, with the exception of senior night.

JOAT is correct. For the last several years, they’ve been announcing parishes. Now, they announce the “column” the boys are in. CCH has adopted a column system, similar to the house system at Moeller and I believe, Trinity. I don’t know all of the particulars, but that’s what they announce now.

When Huppman (sp?) is healthy, he’s in for Sommerkamp. He’s a transfer from Evansville.
