  1. Do they actually use the word "gimmick"? If they do that is a farce!! 10 for 10 and bogof is a legitimate sale price. If they consider that a gimimick than that is funny. I guess Walmart ..oh nevermind!!:lol:
  2. It is and it isn't. Tuition students are very important to $chools. Most schools take them. Holmes takes them, the Kenton County schools take them, Ludlow takes them. I could go on and on. Boone County doesn't take them, but that is due to the growth issue in the county. You don't just get into a school because you want to, you have to be a decent student and a good citizen. Good athletes who are not good students are just not worth the risk. State testing is to important.
  3. Ok, so they lost 2 starters and Beechwood lost 2 starters. Beechwood beat Calvary twice and Calvary is the favorite based on this. Is there an explanation for this way of thinking/voting?
  4. I just cannot agree with the , "the kids will learn anywhere, if they want to learn" I don't want to call out any schools or kids, but I know of kids who changed schools to attend better academic schools and struggled in their new environment. I seem to recall a certain transfer to Beechwood who was a straight A student at his former school and struggled to stay eligible after his transfer. He did eventually succeed in the classroom after a lot of hard work. I also recall an A/B student from a school last year who couldn't score high enough to be eligible for his Div. I scholarship. I also know of kids at BHS and HHS who ranked in the halfway part of their class and scored 25+ on their ACT. These schools will continue to receive good student athletes based on this alone. Schools and Boosters need to hold academics first if they want to build a better athletic program.:thumb:
  5. ...and your point is...You have superior academic schools with superior football programs and you are going to take issue with those schools because people want to send their kids to school there. I don't get it!!! Every school can do this. No school district is not permitted to build a good football or any athletic program. Maybe the answer is to make your school safer and more academically successful. You know "Build it and they will come":scared:
  6. Ronnie Kenning, Senior - Would have started, has had a string of very bad luck! Don't know all the details!
  7. It's the 2nd game of the season! "Season-saving" a little over the top don't you think! Good Job Colonels!
  8. The pot shot was were you had to include the self reported scores of CCH and NDA. Every post of yours seems to include how absolutely wonderful and great the students at CCH and NDA are and what great kids they are too. I happen to know that there are a lot of great kids at those schools and a lot of not so great kids and some of them happen to be kids you have applauded in the past. It gets a little old. I'll be glad to PM you when if info the next time you praise someone questionable!! Beechwoodfan your PC is alittle old.:flame: I think I've told you that before:eek:
  9. Actually that was for a different group! Then again I am a Catholic educated by the public schools, I'm probably wrong or misinformed or just plain unloved as are my children. It is very difficult for the lay person to continually compare scores because so many results are for different groups of students. The only thing that they seem to be consistent is that the same schools are continually at the top. Social Economic are a MAJOR factor here! A question here, where do I get the results for the Private Schools? Are they published for the general public or are they a "secret" only for the eyes of the chosen?
  10. Had to get that last part in didn't you!! The public school results were for HS juniors. Did you ever think that ACT scores also have a lot to do with the social economics of the school district. I think everyone here knows that you consider Catholic education the only right way to show your child you truly care. The fact is that a lot of Catholics in NKY chose to send their children to good Public Schools. I'm sure you would be appalled at the number of Catholic Parents who choose to send their children to Beechwood, Highlands, and other high ranking public schools. Guess what! They get a good education and sometimes they even turn out to be good people!:argue:
  11. Zoverax Prescription only. Nothing is going to get rid of them right away! If they are there, they are there. Best bet is to use zoverax($$$$) as soon as you feel you might be getting them, also some sort of antacid for your stomach. Another thing you could put lots of perixode on it until it drys. The truth is if its got you, its got you. I have a lot of experience in this area. I also have a prescription for Zoverax. Now I'm due (overdue) for one and the above is what I will be doing.:ylsuper:
  12. Life is not like a bowl of cherries, It is more like a jar of jalapeno peppers, What you do today, may burn your Behind tomorrow
  13. Add me to this LIST! Unless you have a lot more info than what is posted on this BB you don't know what you are talking about!
  14. People who let their children use those roller shoes in a retail store! People who talk on cell phones while being waited on by someone in a restaurant or other service area. RUDE! At Home: this may sound weird but it drives me crazy when someone uses the hose and doesn't roll it back up. I think I am the chief hose roller here.
  15. Taylor Snyder leaving Beechwood is a sad thing for the Tigers. I really do not know if this was in the works before the Volleyball/Soccer, mishandled/misspoken,friendship breaker, losing a great coach incident. Taylor's father (RIP) was a NCC grad and I could see him making a decision like this! Good Luck Taylor, Beechwood sure will miss you and your family after Nate graduates.
  16. Let's not say "Soccer" let's say "Soccer Moms" of either gender.
