  1. One of my main bones of contention with the implementation of a 40 second clock. But as we've implemented it, I think the pluses way outweigh the minuses. I always contended if I had a QB that would work with me, I could burn about a minute a play. What I have found with the 40 second clock, in blowout games it seems like the clock operator isn't quite as efficient as he was earlier in the game. I have no idea why that is, it just seems to be the case.
  2. Don't hurt yourself, you have a new craft to learn this fall!
  3. I believe per by-laws, all schools are required to take two moratorium weeks. Week 1 of the IHSAA calendar is mandatory for all schools, whatever week July 4 falls in. The other week is at the individual school's discretion. Unless it's changed. I have not paid much attention since my retirement. I know Seymour still takes "fair week" as their 2nd moratorium week, with a fairly large agri-business/4H contingent in the student body.
  4. Best thing in the world when we all got glasses. Before Dad got the belt out, we would slide the glasses down our nose a little. After a couple of whacks, we'd shake our heads, glasses would fall off, and mom would yell at dad to stop because we'd break our glasses. Funny story, our middle brother would always do stuff, then lie.....Finally my oldest brother or I would just say we did it, take our ass busting and move on. Oldest brother and I finally called dad out about it a few years back. We're like you knew he was lying, why'd you beat our asses. Dad's response was perfect, he said "I never bothered you guys after you went back to your rooms and Tony was getting his did I?"
  5. I wonder if Frontline will do an hour long episode on these findings?
  6. Actually it’ll probably be a knee first.
  7. No he was for the guy who barely beat "none of the above".
  8. All out of season activities are voluntary by rule. I did not say in practice, I said by rule. OK first of all VB is the scourge of women's sports. This crap is the reason my kid dropped VB. Her passion was Softball, she liked to play Basketball. Her HS BB coach worked with her. She was a good enough athlete she could help the BB team and missed most of the summer stuff. Even at schools the size of Seymour, sports HAVE to share athletes, some coaches get that and some never will. See my post above, "the placed on kids in the summer by coaches are stupid!"
  9. I hope he's got a forklift to keep moving that goal post, I'm sure they're heavy.
  10. Who was the last title holder? And what did he/she get? I really hope it's something good!
  11. So it’s not the debt you have a problem with?
  12. You stated R’s raised the debt and TD and I will vote for them anyway, I-retorted with a graphic that clearly shows both R’s and D’s have raised the debt in the last nearly 30 years and whataboutism is your answer? You continue to vote blindly for D’s even though the graph shows they raise the debt as well. Dip, dock, dodge all you want, facts are facts.
  13. He can become licensed at 18.
  14. I'm from Seymour, and have contact with several HHC teams doing lower level games throughout the year. I'm really hit or miss on seeing HHC V games over the course of a season. Last year for instance I saw one team. This year I will see three. 2020-2, 2021-2, 2022-0, 2023-0, but I have a couple of open dates. 24 and 25 I have 0 but a lot of open dates. I was a HC in the HHC, so I'm a little more in the know than the average fan. I'm not an HHC fan as you say, but I do get around and see some things. I've been on this forum since the beginning, and from my observations there are VERY few people who continue to post and follow as the years roll on. What you typically see is a program bursts onto the scene and suddenly they've got a bunch of fans/parents posting, the program fades, or their kid graduates and the interest wanes and they disappear. For instance in the late 90's when Seymour was enjoying a little more success there were several posters from Seymour. While East was in the doldrums at the end of the Stafford years, you didn't see any posters from East. Anyone remember the Horde? Large group from Heritage Hills, etc. I will say with regards to the HHC, we've never really seen any numbers from Jeff, Madison, NA I believe have had a handful of parents, you're the only poster I recall from FC, and JC has had a couple former players post. If it's any consolation, the Jeff/NA people used to dominate the BB forums, I haven't looked at one in a long time.
