  1. Proceeds of new contracts minus Cost of buying out old contracts Greater rewards for HHS
  2. I think that they will get better. I think that an extra week of practice with some questions answered will help. If Mahan improves and McDavid plays with confidence (forget about the drops) it will be interesting. I think the key to playing against this Russell group revolves around being discipline on defense. By that I mean using your keys and making good reads and not overcomitting to the misdirection. If they can do those things initially and make sure tackles at the end it will be tight. These things need to be done week in and week out but this Russell team has the ability to make you pay for mistakes. Can't wait til Friday.
  3. I saw an opposum while driving last night. He had a Reds uniform on. I looked at my beautiful wife (honey if you read this I think you're beautiful) and told her "Look at that possum, he's gonna get killed on the road. I just hope that he doesn't play dead at home."
  4. Didn't Aaron McGlone win Mr. Baseball when at Greenup? I apologize for being off the subject. Ashland and Russell will be interesting and Clark is a tough runner. Ashland will have to play better than they have in the first two weeks which they probably will. All I can say is Lord willing I will be in attendance. It will be worth the price of admission.
  5. I did miss Montrell Jones. Here is the list: 2005 Micah Johnson Ft. Campbell 2004 Curtis Pulley Hopkinsville 2003 Brian Brohm Trinity 2002 Michael Bush Male 2001 Jeff Duggins Boyle Co 2000 Montrell Jones Male 1999 Travis Atwell Hancock Co 1998 Jared Lorensen Highlands 1997 Dennis Johnson Harrodsburg 1996 Derek Homer Ft. Knox 1995 Tim Couch Leslie Co 1994 Shaun Alexander Boone Co 1993 Jeremy Simpson Lincoln Co 1992 Bill Jack Haskins Paducah Tilghman 1991 Scott Russell Evarts 1990 Damon Hood Warren Central 1989 Pookie Jones Calloway Co 1988 Jeff Brohm Trinity 1987 Kurt Barber Paducah Tilghman 1986 Frank Jacobs Newport Catholic
  6. I heard that you did. I was told that you sold tickets to your lecture on offensive schemes emphasing the wishbone. I'm sure they will send you a letter in the mail expaining why.
  7. For UK to get OJ I;m afraid they would have to rehire a certain assistant and return the video footage to the handlers via UPS.
  8. My bad Ms. Basketball. I think she could have played for some mens teams. I don't think class matters. Ft Campbell was 2A? Hopkinsville 3A? I think that maybe only 3 of the last 15 came from 4A schools. Brohm, Bush, & Alexander.
  9. Was not trying to argue just clarify that it is possible. I think that the Gearhart girl was Mr. Basketball from your neighbor Olive Hill. This year is tough with Vic Anderson and I think the kid from Male is Beaumont, not sure. Both are of course from Louisville, but both are probably as good as Clark if not better. I have seen Clark play and he is as fun to watch as anyone.
  10. The last two Mr. Football winners were not from the areas you mention either.
  11. Score aside, I think it is just as important to learn how to handle winning as well losing. Last night after the final little league game of the year, the winning pitcher and arguably the leader of the GA team said C'mon guys let's go tell them good game. This kid already knows what many adults need to learn or relearn. Etiquette and gamesmanship are just as much a part of competition as the score. This needs to be taught to the youngster's by example. I am not referring to this game with this post. I wasn't there and I don't know how each side reacted. I am just posting my thoughts.
  12. Earl Woods had a child prodigy. He pushed and demanded excellence. Made choices that we probably wouldn't have agreed with at the time. He did this for the good of his son, not himself. The adults involved with OJ seem to make their interests a higher priority than him. Here's a thought, the basketball court may be the only place in this 18 year old boy's life that the decisions for his well being are his own. You hear a lot of athletes talk about the only place where everything is ok is on the field of competition. If that is the case with this young man, I hope that he never quits playing basketball. That being said the people making the decisions off the court are truly making this a circus. I think they are the source for ridicule not Mr. Mayo.
  13. I posted the Olympic comment. You bring up an interesting point about Canada. If OJ played in Canada this year and they had some marked up documents about citizenship he could then choose who to play for in international competition and cash in big time. I think that he should leave Cincunington and look up prep schools in Canada.
  14. I appreciate the support from rickyp. This coming from a man that shaves other men's legs. (read it another post) I will not attempt to retaliate here, I know that Mr. P is under a lot of stress with the current youth athletic scene and his own inability to understand the option. I have nothing but best wishes for him. I would like for him to remember that Gal. 5:23 mentions longsuffering as a product of love. As for the middle school game there are a lot of things that go on during a game and only those that tend to support one's views end up on here. The people involved know exactly what went on and what emotions were involved.
  15. If he has a shade on his head they might mistake him for a floor lamp. He might have gone to the library, no one would ever think to look in there. Just a few suggestions.
  16. With the renewed, spirit of nationalism that the USA basketball team is creating. Would you ever want these top ranked players to represent the USA in competition? If you hesitate with your answer or the answer is no, do you want them to represent your high school? If this answer is yes then a championship is tainted.
  17. Did the story say that they can't find a 6'11'' kid? Whereabouts are unknown? Somebody knows where this kid is. These guys may be better suited for the And1 tour than college and then the NBA.
  18. My kids go to Ashland schools and my best friends kids go to Rose Hill. I don't ever want any garbage to change that relationship. If my children play against his I hope we win but not to the point that I lose sight of the fact that we are strangers passing through this world and my hope is not in junior high football or high school football. No my kids don't play for Verity. I hope that when they are older they will play. If they don't, turkeys beware.
  19. Thanks. Just didn't want to miss any info. I hate it that you were offended by the comments of people who maybe were less informed.
  20. Was there a thread on this game before it was played or was the blowing that you refer to done in person? If it was a thread could you help me out and tell me where it is?
  21. I think that Coach Evans will be prepared as will his team. It will be decided by less than 10.
