  1. I also agree with Bill, and I also agree with me. I contacted KHSAA on the coaches issue, they told me.."as the budget allows they (any school) can have as many as they want.'
  2. Keep laughing, not changing any time soon. Manual JVs/frosh didn't even play Trinity. We did (Male) and got beat.
  3. Then maybe they need to do as others and have seperate divisions, Its all about the kids and a level playing field, thats all. Build it and they will come, Prep school is the answer. Sorry you got angry, not my purpose and it makes me sad if I did. Your kid didn't lose 100-7. Mine did.
  4. Alum, I'll call and ask the coaches question to the KHSAA and give an report. You sound angry and thats not my intent, does your child play at Trinity, like mine does at Male? Remember, I said I have no problem with kids going to the private schools.
  5. RM, its OK to disagree with people you care about, ask Mama. She could write a Novel. The Publics are way behind in their situations for the kids and might not ever catch up, but Alum said there was no advantage for them or "The playing field is level". And its not, I made some points. And I still say its ok for the kids to get into the privates schools and the school should help them. Look at the scores of the top Publics verses Trinity/X, speaks loudly. Jvs/freshman were closer but our numbers will always be behind.
  6. Ok, look at your campuses and look around at the Publics. Male has the nicest one but they were told if they move to Preston they will get an upgrade, the weight room/track was finally made to two rooms this year. If I donate any funds it has to be divided with the girls programs. Girls sports also use fields and indoor time. We can get kids from Barrett/Johnson/& JCTMS. There is no limit for your school, in fact there are many Catholic schools but you can still come to the schools I mentioned. We have no radio coverage. Not really sure if Male could work out an agreement with a station. The funds would also have to to the girls. Male is restricted on kids due to isues and some kids are on your team right now who were gonna be turned down by Male. The grades have to be at a certain GPA, also behavier and with that thought, I'm glad your school and St X allows kids to get in. We also have to find teams outside Jefferson County to play us, our JVs/Freshman played only nine games. How many coaches are at your school? I helped my son by chasing his kicks to save him from walking, we have no special teams coach/strenth coach. This is divided between what we have. Your Boys enrollment doubles ours. Want more? I can PM you I don't want to put things on this board. But answer some of my Comments about a "Level Playing Field".
  7. I think there is nothing wrong in helping a child get into the private schools, and even play sports while there. But when this happenes and they can get kids from different areas and become very powerful in sports, then there has to be a level playing field. Remember, I said its about the kids, and thats all kids at Atherton/Vally/Fern Creek/ Male/manual/ Seneca... I have been saying this for many years. And don't tell me "We just have to practice harder," thats doesn't make sense.
  8. They have 20 seconds to find it, then if they don't I WIN!!"
  9. "OK, he is doing it again, look away and pretend you don't notice him". Man, I love doing these things and look forward to them, as long I'm not in one of them.
  10. So these three Jewish guys walk into the bar and....
  11. "If that guy doesn't stop taking my picture, I'm gonna slug him!"
  12. "Go HORNS".."hey its a timeout and I can do this".
  13. Back in the 70s, and we both agreed things have changed and you brought it up. And read the next line. Its all about the child. Also I'm kinda nice on this subject on other sites the private schools get blasted quite a bit and to them they are not thinking of the boys and girls. But to be really fair I hear things a lot in my circles, and my kids have gone to public schools with some kids at your school, and they (other parents/Coaches) tell me some things.
  14. Bad for the fans of the Rocks, great for the players/fans of the team that does it. In sports sometimes we lose.
  15. Alum, where was I using Insinuations? You even stated "things have changed since the 70s" which I brought up of having first hand knowledge of kids getting in. I repeatly said "I have no problem with kids going to a private school if thats what they want, and was happy for my buds who got in". Disservice to the school and me? Now where did I say that or maybe its you saying it for me? I'll wait for a retraction.
  16. ALLTell, things have changed at Male. We are 3-7 and lost to trinity 49-7. Yes, the game tape showed our Freshman scored on the long run. Ask some Trinity coaches/Players if they saw the tape. To be fair guys I know guys who got into private schools Bishop David/Desales/Trinity/X back in the 70s and they had help, and we thought nothing of it. I thought it was fine that my buds got to go where they wanted to. So things may have changed since then I don't lose sleep over it since we got Tony Driver back in the 90s. That is a joke..here. :laugh: Remember, I said I think its great kids Boys/Girls can get a chance to go where they want to. I think several players from Trinity played against us at Highview Optimist the past few years. And some were on our team.
  17. Daddy, move then, I didn't make the laws. ALUM, I just know some kids who got in and they lived in homes where the welfare helped them, I don't know the total story, but I've been around this since the early 70s and know many kids who got in and like I said I'm happy for them, I think I mentioned that. On the ice cream quote, just read the threads on here. I've been around Male since 2004, how many other Male fans do you see on here? I read other sites where people say a lot more on this issue than on here. On one site there are "SIX" different threads on Trinity alone that are one day old. I've dealt with the "fans" on here too. I tell you what go to the college forum on football and read my posts on Alabama Football. I could be real hard to be around but I've been taught some things on how you act win or lose. And I have two sons named after Coach Bryant
  18. As a Public School supporter (Four Sons) I see nothing wrong in helping a student who wants to attend a private school, what gets me is when this happens and then when their team wins a game they act like they are the greatest thing since Ice Cream. I know of several kids who got into a private schools and their family was on a real low income and living in assited housing. Thats OK with me it is America, its all about the Child. I've had three sons go to college and one has a double major (Eight years) so I we could have sent our boys to any school in the state.
  19. Not so quickly SF, I've seen tape on Meade County and they are very solid. Nice QB and wingback #7 are very good. And Male is playing very hard so it might be a very good matchup. Hope we don't kick off to #7. Who has his hand bandaged but still can play. Any fans of Meade County on here. I'll be there if anyone wants to meet. I met ole ROCKMOM at the Rocks game and had a great time.
  20. When is the award given, before the playdowns or after? Who won last year? I think it shoud be 6 different ones for each class.
  21. Male has over 700 total yards their past two games. I haven't seen Meade County.
  22. I have loved one on the team (Freshman) How many Male games you seen? MBKT for you. Rockpride Dude, I know football. ROLL TIDE! Since 1960. And in sports there are games played where you have no experince compared to others, Remember 3 returning starters, and each week we have improved, and you try to build on that as you encourage your team. But, you are used to that. As Barnanus in the Bible I like to encourage kids. I even said that some folks made some good points on why Male should not be in the top 10, and I have no vote. MBKT/RockPride you have children on your teams? If not you can't walk in my shoes...I've had three.
