  1. I know locally in Mayfield that WYMC will have the mayfield metcalfe game on AM 1430. IT's also on 95.9Fm in Mayfield area, and I think they have a low power stadium cast at the same frequency for those who make the trip and to hear a home town announcer. Sometimes it's funnier to listen to what coach Leahy says between timeouts while your at the stadium. Mayfield games are also on the web at http://www.96classiccountry.com

  2. So you Mayfield folks excited about Crittenden being in your district next year? I think it will make for a better rivalry than Murray, I'm sure we will win as frequently as Murray did but maybe the games will be more competitive, either way I think it will on help the Rockets get better and help when it comes to playing the Cards in the playoffs

     

    If anyone wins in the district it will be for the first time. Mayfield has not lost a regular season district game since dropping to class A.

  3. I heard Coach Mo say in his pregame interview that fumbles had only been a problem in 2 games, Graves and Murray High. I think he can now add FC game to that list. Usually by now, Mayfield is playing well, and demolishing opponents in their district. They hold on to the ball against FC, and it's more like 35 or 40 to nothing. I don't think FC ever got close to scoring until the closing seconds. Bulldogs have some good athletes, but they still have some things to learn 'bout football.

  4. I'd say anyone who can give the score, who's got the ball, and how much time is left is doing a credible job. The rest is gravy to the sportscast, voice, inflection, description. I think most people don't sit and listen to a game from beginning to end. I for one, can't stand it, when I'm scanning the dial, and the announcer won't give the score, or anything else that would be considered pertinent information. I've heard some guys out there who are a disgrace to the word "announcer" and have no business behind a mike of any kind. Good help is hard to find. And I'm pretty sure, these guys, even the good ones, do this as a labor of love, as I'm betting you're not gonna get rich announcing high school sports.

  5. Graves got Mayfield on a night when the Cards just didn't show up. If Warren Central turns it over 6 times, Graves might beat them, too. I think Graves fairy tale is about to take a detour. Warren Central likely has better pass coverage, and Graves, IMO, only has an average running game, that looks really good against the sisters of the poor. Against better run defenses, it ain't much.

  6. Yeah I caught the post game show, too. I haven't heard anybody else in high school broadcasts do their highlight reel like they do... I wonder what they use to do that... Can't be recorded on Cd aand played back, I wouldn't think, but it's neat to know that if i miss the game, I can still hear the highlites.

  7. Typically, you can throw out all rankings and what not in rivalry games. This year Lone Oak should handle Heath easily.

     

    I don't think this county championship means anything anymore. You've got Reidland, (less than average year in and year out, with the exception of a team about 4 years ago), then Heath and Lone Oak, who are both about average. Neither of which is likely to play past the first round of the watered down playoff system. Looks like another year of overall bad western kentucky football, so who really cares?
