  1. In a year that we were fortunate to have a high school football season the 2A and 4A championship games brought a fun and exciting end to a somewhat funky season. Congratulations to this blue collar, lunch box toting group of Rebels on a great season and a hard fought uphill battle to secure a 9th state title and a second ring for these seniors. Hats off to Franklin Co. as well!

  2. Last years Boyle/Belfry game would be a better comparison than the Corbin game. JC and Belfry run a very similar ball control power offense with little or no passing.

     

    As for the physical aspect, my son played defensive end for Boyle and on the offensive line on certain sets. He said the Belfry game was much more physical and hard hitting than the Corbin game and took a toll that lingered into the next game for several of the Boyle players.

  3. It's not just high school football that is seeing a decline in attendance. Almost all spectator sports are having trouble putting butts in the seats. Major league baseball, the NBA, NACAR even the mighty NFL are seeing more and more empty seats. I am a big motorsports fan and the Nascar race at Kentucky Speedway this year was maybe 50% full. The NHRA U.S. Nationals used to be standing room only for 3 of the 5 days of the event and this year you had more empty seats than occupied ones.

     

    Competition for our entertainment dollar is taking its toll on all these sports and more. One thing I have not seen mentioned is a lack of interest buy the younger generations. Growing up with all the electronic stimuli they have at there disposal is changing what people do for relaxation and entertainment.
