35Bird

He was dreamy

Personally, I neither had nor heard any complaints. This was only my second time there (I live way out of town), and last night was an event rather than a standard meal, but the service was fine when I was there in June. Your mileage may vary.

It was a real honor tonight to meet the men from the '92 Team tonight. A classy very bunch and worthy of the term "Champion" in every sense of the word. And I am truly blessed to call the Men of the '82 squad teammates and five other great individuals Coach. We played as a team and they coached as a team to gain an incredible title. Thank you to Highlands and the organizers of this event for making this happen. And a special shout-out to Mio's. What a great night.

More than I knew :lol:

What do we know about Boyd County?

At least one.

I think we were 20th in USA Today and 24th by AP, but I am old and feeble-minded now and don't remember so good. Regardless, a Bird on Bird game would be hard fought and fun to play in and/or watch.

EMS? Naw. Think Dobbling, Muehlenkamp-Erschell, etc. They are the ones who would run out of wagons.

Thank you to Mio's for letting us all come aboard. But now I have to behave myself

Who from the '82 and '92 teams are looking to come to this? Let us know so we can fill you in on the details. I know I have teammates who regularly read Bluegrass Preps but I don't know whether they are coming. We are really looking hard for juniors and sophomores from the '82 team.

Highlands. I want to win the game and the prize.

Any idea whom we are playing in this game?

I'll be at the game on November 2 for the anniversary of the 1982 team. Which of my teammates will be there?

Still looking for members of 1982! PM me for details.

I'm really looking forward to meeting the kid who has that number now.

Well, looks like it is a go! I'll be there. Who else will be there with us? I've put together a FB page for the 1982 Team (Fort Thomas Highlands '82 Football State Champs).

Seidel brought the ball down to the one-foot line.

How does the Bird kicker look?

Highlands basketball team is off to a rocky start because 4 of their waterboys are also on the football team's water squad. It will take them a while to get into basketball shape, but once they do, look out. I'm just glad that these boys are not only allowed but also encouraged to carry water for other sports.

I have it too. And no, not a knock on that team at all. Just a comment about the numbers then vs now on the Freshman team. If the '79 team had one more player, I never would have seen the field.

... but up a lot from '79.

How many of these Kentucky Boys played for a state champion this year? No one from Highlands or Trinity on the roster. Why are two of the best teams not represented on this all-state team? And does the Tennessee team have the same situation?

Hopelessly Old School and less likely than BG and HHS meeting this year, but HHS and NewCath anytime.

Watch Dale take a page out of Spinal Tap and turn his total state victories "Up to 11".
