Location, Location, Location! Does it Matter?

Open enrollment is a huge benefit; however, that is just one. -
Holmes High School Assistant Basketball Coach
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to 3BREDS2B's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
So "a spirit that will not die" can be kicked out and take another job a few blocks away. :jump: -
2011 Skyline Chili Crosstown Showdown
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to Colonels_Wear_Blue's topic in KY Football (High School)
Agree with everyone else. This has gone from a great event to silly. I know that Taft has some big recruits that they are looking to showcase, but as a team are they good enough to feature on national TV? I like the NCC vs. McNick game. -
Regional Track Meet DQ
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to stinkyboy II's topic in KY Swimming, Track, Lacrosse, Golf (High School)
QS: Are these silly infractions National Rules that the KHSAA can not revise/change as they wish or are there people involved in the sport and/or the KHSAA that actually think it is a good idea to DQ kids for the stitching in their compression shorts? If it is the latter, is there a reason behind the rules that isn't readily visible to the casual observer? -
30% of the country is obese. Are they missing out on an untapped market and revenues could actually be higher if they tapped into this market?

This was on the Today show this morning. If you are too large to fit in one seat, should airline charge you for two?

I would hope so.

Obviously the football and baseball team benefit, but do the female student athletes at Beechwood benefit from this project?

James Quick, the standout from Trinity's season best is a sub 11 seconds. There are only five (5) boys who have posted sub 11 second time in the state this spring.

Does anyone hold a press conference to announce they are staying in school?

Mike Listerman Steps Down at Covington Catholic
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to Clyde's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I can't even use the word "spin" to describe these statements, because it is so far beyond spin. Hope everyone put their boots on before reading that. The real truth is that because of the requirement that Cov. Cath. does not want a para professional and the fact that the pay at a private school is less than that at a public school, the pool of candidates willing to accept the job is very very limited. So limited that for many really good coaches those factors offset the many benefits such as: having the talent flow through the program to always be competitive, great feeder system, all male school that draws from all of Kenton and Boone Counties, high socioeconomic demographic of the students, community support, etc. Expectations and the unique challenges that may exist do little to nothing to scare away the best candidates from Cov. Cath. Low pay and having to teach at the school more likely have a greater impact. If I had to guess who the next Cov. Cath coach will be, I would think the next coach might be similar to both Eviston and Brannen at NCC. Young guys who are alums of the school and whose passion and loyalty might outweigh other factors. A guy like a Nestheide. -
I believe the difference is females want to play with guys and if they do well they know they have done something. Males don't want to play against females because it does nothing to quench the competive thirst that is hard wired in males. If theysucceeed - well big deal. Right or wrong, I try to never agrue over something I wouldn't want and i don't want a few males competing with all females. I am not crazy about a few females competing with all males, but I can live with it. As far as the topic at hand, that is very impressive.

If you could play for any college coach.....
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to SportsGuy41017's topic in College Basketball
Bully? Abusive? Stubborn? Volatile? I appreciate what he did for Landon Turner but I can't overlook these traits. -
What would you do if your wife gave you a weeklong hall pass?
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to Qryche11's topic in BGP Break Room
I haven't seen the movie, but isn't the premise of the movie about having a "hall pass" where you don't honor your marriage commitment? What you would do with a "hall pass" from your marriage commitment is a much different answer than what most have answered here. Of course that might not be the premise of the movie at all. -
Can Mick maintain it now?
-
True, but I asked the question who would be on it if the list were statewide. Tim Couch and Michael Bush would certainly be possiblities

The Cutting Process: A Better Way
HIGHLANDS GUY replied to Clyde's topic in KY Baseball (High School)
I am with you Clyde. -
While we know the Bible says that, we also know that God is just and that there are unreached people groups that have never heard of Jesus in order to even contimplate a choice. We can debate the issue at length, but the bottom line is we really don't know. I think the fact the fact that I can't fully wrap my brain around God is a good thing and more than anything I really believe that is the sentiment that is present in Rob Bell's works.

Some seem to have that correcting and rebuking down pretty well.

The Cincinnati Enquirier just did a list of the 100 greatest multisport athletes in the area. Kentuckians on the list were: #21 - Derrick Smith/Highlands #31 - David Justice/Cov. Latin #32 - Frank Jacobs/NCC #33 - Scott Draud/Highlands #45 - Bob Barton/Holmes #50 - Bob Demoss/Dayton #65 - Jared Lorenzen/Highlands #72 - Cory Farris/Boone County #74 - John Turner/Newport #82 - Allan Feldhaus/Boone County #86 - Brandon Burger/Beechwood #92 - Andy Seitz/Scott #100 - Luke Maile/Cov. Cath If there were a statewide list for just KY, who would be the top athletes?

I would suggest you to be patient and wait to see if he is indeed promoting a Universalist theology or if the "teaser" in the promotional video is just that a teaser that leads to a more full discussion. Guys like Rob Bell are all about the diagogue, the journey, the discovery,.... the midrash. I will say that trying to determine the location of where anyone (including Ghandi) is living out their eternity is somthing that I think is best left to God, since he is the only one who knows or who can make the determination. I have found that for me personally that is dangerous grounds for me to engage.

On the topic, that Rob Bell addresses I really like this CS Lewis quote: There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, in the end, 'Thy will be done.' In the end I think we all get exactly what we want.
