I just talked to my son day before yesterday, and he was telling me some rockets had been shot into the base, and had missed their target. He and his men went to check it out and found out a newbie had been so scared by the attack that he turned and ran into the outside of a building breaking his leg. As he and his men continued to look around several were telling them to find cover. He told them it was over that's all they had at this point, and he was right. I think for the most part the veterans are better equipped mentally to handle it. While I'm not happy in his 6 years this is his second tour of Iraq, Afganastan once and Korea once. He actually volunteered for this assignment. I agree we need to take better care of them when they come home. He volunteered for the Army and most of the time really likes it. I would much rather have people serving this country that want to, than a bunch of draftees who are only ther because they have to be.

I would say a little of both. I know that's not much of an answer.

Bellevue may win, but I doubt they name the score.

We'll see what kind of buzz Jurich has come January.

I think the redployment thing works both ways. While it can and does cause a lot of stress they have also had experience in those countries and the second deployment should be easier than the first. I have a son over there right now.

1:00 I think.

Have said this several times and no one seems to like my idea. Play a ten week schedule, then use all the bowl games as playoff games. 64 teams just like basketball. Use the lesser bowls as the first round games with the higher seeds playing closer to home. So the Motor City could end up with maybe Michigan versus a team from that region, would guess there would be a lot more interst in the Motor City bowl. My plan takes 5 or 6 weeks been awhile since I wrote it all down. Then you don't have teams taking a month off in between games and cutting back to a 10 game regular season you end up finished at the same time. A true national champion would be crowned.

Dean Smith won less titles with more talent than anyone on this list.

I kinda forgot my favorite player of all time who should be included on this list Mr. Mashburn.

Glad to see Frankfort understand how things are.

Bama wins this one. I just don't think much of Le Smiles or Les Miles ever how you want to pronounce it.

For us old timers Bowie would have to be pretty high on the list. Of the list given I'll have to go with Wall.

I think BGPs are much closer to being correct.

You're not reading all my post. I've watched football for 44 years reffed it for about 20 and again it's the first time I've seen anyone do what Spikes did. Have you seen it before? Now I did see a kid try to kick another in the face, but not dig in his face mask with both hands.

Exactly my point the eyes. I have seen the other stuff, and had it done to me, but never anyone trying to poke my eyes out.

They don't wear visors for someone trying to poke their eyes in the pile. I played for 8 years and have watched almost my entire life and have never seen that done before.

If anyone plays LCA close in the playoffs I will be surprised, and yes I remember what happened last year. I also don't think LCA has forgotten.

Everyone is questioning Joker and I just don't get it. The man is as classy as they get. Would everyone agree with me that Sieber is an average kicker at best? Well he is the all time leading scorer, so what's that tell you. We've scored more points since he's been here than ever before, and we all know that most of his points are x-points or short field goals. We've left ourselves short in a couple of areas in recruiting such as receiver, but that seems to have been addressed. I'm as dissapointed with some of the losses as anyone, and yes I want us to be better, and I do think we can get there with this staff.

Thanks for typing all that and saving me the time it would've took me half an hour. I agree 100%. As most of you know I used to coach at Frankfort which is a small 1a school. We may have a kid every five or ten years that can play in the SEC, but very shortly after Brooks was hired Archer and Joker would stop by just to check in. Up until then a UK coach had never been to the school. Because of that they ended up with EJ FIelds and barely missed on Quan Weaver. They do things the right way and that suits me fine.:thumb:

Only if Patrick drives his new truck to the game and Tipton reports his family has put him back in an old clunker.

I've been watching football all my life and have never seen this happen. I've seen lots of cheap shots, clotheslines, clips, but never anyone trying to gouge somebody in the eyes. I hope the SEC gets involved since Meyer didn't think it was a big deal.

Yeah I was real happy with all those bowl games we were going to before Brooks and Joker got here. I agree the last series left a lot to be desired in the red zone, but we did put up 24 points it's not like we were shut out. Again as has been stated many times the defense got gashed last night and made very few adjustments coach Brown let us down.

Again it's what he started the article with and it was completly false. I just don't understand you're taking up for him on this one. It must be a blast when you and wireman get together.

Incorrect and fabricated are two different things aren't they?

We win a few and some people just get real cocky.
