Flynn and Dodd are both class acts

OUCH! Thanks for the update...

Couldn't catch this one on the radio. Anybody heard the final on it or know any details? Is Ferguson still out? I know he was doubtful...

True. Transfers happen. Some are legit... some are not... but it is a fact of life in high school sports. Best not to focus on the transfers - just appreciate the student athletes and support your favorite team(s)

Last year there were a number of players on several teams who had formerly been at Rose Hill. VanHoose and Austin Blair at Russell, Alex Barker at Fairview, Matt Thomas at Ashland, Gillums at Greenup, Mayo, Jamal Williams, and Michael Taylor at Huntington High to name a few. Can you imagine what a team that would have been had they all stayed at Rose Hill :eek:

It remains to be seen how much competetion Huntington High will be. They may be defending state champs in the Mountain State, but they graduated their top six in June!

Talk about rebuilding!!! Could be a long season.

I'm in agreement with that - 100%

TBF, Should that be, "Never HAVE any of my superiors..."??? Sorry! I just couldn't resist!

My old buddy, Fastbreak, sure knows how to turn a phrase. He is a veritable plethora of verbal and gramatical correctness, a fountainhead of linguistic and historical knowledge! (also he's pretty smart and talks real good!) You are a breath of fresh air FB! Keep 'em coming!!!!

Guru and Mods, I think this rule is way past due. Last I heard they are still teaching English in every school district in the Commonwealth. I applaud the new rule and the spirit behind it!

Somebody help me out here... Is Flaget Rocks real;) I find that I am agreeing with him an awful lot lately.

I never was too crazy about her anyway. She kind of got on my nerves.:irked: But I still didn't think she was a guy... to girly. If she was a gag she was a good one!

Ohmygosh! I'm having an identity crisis. Am I real or is someone else just portraying me?:confused: Somebody help me!!!:scared:

My advice to you, sir, is not to base your opinion on pre conceived notions and prejudicial information. Get informed before making all of your assumptions. There are a number of non athletes at Rose Hill receiving financial assistance. Your insinuations are both ignorant (as in not aware of the facts) and inflamatory. :argue: In short, Get a clue:fight:

Hate to see Walker go (again), and February sure is a weird time to do it, but if that's the case, so be it... He is an outstanding freshman talent wise. I certainly don't know what's happened, but I would remind everyone (even the skeptics) that Rose Hill is first and foremost a Christian school, and sometimes folks can't or won't like it. I don't know what the situation is with Walker, but I certainly wish him all the best in the future. He's quite a talent. The Royals performance tonight against Paintsville should at least answer the question of how his absence will effect their attitudes.

:eek: :scared: :eek:

Even though I am not from Ashland originally, I do love Putnam Stadium. I was very happy to have a hand in the remodeling of the entrance area with new rest rooms, concession stands, cheerleader rooms, storage rooms, etc. We also had some remodeling done (although no enlargement) in the old press box. One of the things on our plan when I left the School Board, was a new locker room facility (in a separate building) similar to the one at Russell. There is a small frame house just outside the west end of the stadium. Our plan was to demolish the house and build the locker room/officials room there. After the major renovation to the entrance of the stadium we were waiting till the next fiscal year to have the funds to do it. I don't know what happened to the plan. That was two superintendents ago, and only one of the same board members remain, so I guess they have different plans. I will give them credit, that the badly needed baseball facility on campus was finally completed in the interim, and it probably should have taken precedence over the football locker rooms, BUT the board SHOULD address this need NOW. I haven't been in the visitors locker room in a number of years now, but it was in absolutely deplorable condition then. It was an embarassment to the Ashland School System. I saw several teams just load up their busses and travel back home in their dirty uniforms - rather than shower and dress in that old locker room.:o But back to the original subject of this thread, I have been to no better High School football game venue than good old Putnam Stadium.:thumb:
