you’re

Potentially. I’m privy to some info I can’t share. I can say a good friend of mine who’s an Indy area AD says there’s all kinds of proposals flying around. I think taking the haves out of the HCC and the MIC and going their way, the have nots do the same thing and go their separate way makes a lot of sense. There has been bit of a power shift going on, it’s moving from the townships to the suburbs.

I believe limited contact period has/will begin around this time of December. I would guess most teams in the state are beginning in school out of season limited contact sessions.

Here is exactly the reason I quit worrying about this crap years ago, you can have any kind of system you want, if you’re not going to live with it, what’s the point? #2 ranked crew who was eligible was sitting at home this weekend. #23 crew who was SS eligible did not work a regional. Rumor has it the 6A crew was observed yesterday for the 8th time this season, can ANYONE explain the point of that? Perhaps I’m jaded, perhaps I’m just cynical, or perhaps I’m just tired of being pissed on and being told it’s raining.

Anything of value to refute what I said?

Inflation is demonstratively an over abundance of money, who controls the money supply?

As far as the Rittenhouse trial, first you tell us it’s because judges and prosecutors are lazy, now it’s because the prosecutor wasn’t smart. Which is it Scooter? Could you please point to the posts where I supported the protesters on January 6? You’re full of shit.

So you would have us believe, that the going’s on on January 6, were so dire, such a threat to our nation, so damning, yet judges and prosecutors are too lazy to prosecute them? Sure, makes perfect sense to me. God only knows there are no hot shot young prosecutors out there wanting to make a name for themselves. Would you care to share with the group what strain you’re smoking, I’d love some for myself.

Agree hats off to Coach Cooley and his staff. Good to see him have some success after being in a couple of less than ideal situations.

Sure

Perhaps had they had school choice, things would have turned out better for them.

Curious if any of our legal types have listened to these proceedings? In listening to jury instructions this morning, the judge had three days to come up with jury instructions and he has stumbled and stuttered through this whole thing. I believe the trial is a sham, this prosecutor has clearly been pressured into charging this young man without having a real case. That being said, I’m also curious as to our legal guys take on the judge’s behavior during the trial?

1) Perhaps with age comes wisdom, the wisdom to realize that engaging with people like you is not a worthwhile exercise. 2) Coup attempt? How many people involved have been charge with treason, insurrection, or any of the scary words the media likes to throw around? 3) Perhaps your miserable attempts to bully me have driven me away? 4) Why wrestle with pigs?

I’m reminded of what Joe Goodman told me when I congratulated him on number 200, in his gravely voice he said “well in reality it just means I’ve been doing this a long time.” In our case we're just too lazy to start a new thread, besides ain’t this one ain’t broken.

It would seem just another big game in a long line of big games for two pretty good Football programs.

How many coaches and AD actually understand it. We’ve heard some of this in this very forum.

I had an incident many years ago when I was coaching where I refused to let my team take the field with what I deemed unsafe weather conditions. There is a back story, I’ll spare you the gory details. We were on the road, I called my AD and explained the situation. He said he had my back, do what I felt was best for the safety of our players. Ultimately we ended up playing, after I deemed it safe for us to return to the field. And the game went on without incident. But after some discussion with my AD, I found out, the IHSAA takes withdrawing, forfeiting, not playing a scheduled game is in fact a very serious deal with them. We had no issues, but as a coach, my players safety will ALWAYS come first.

Bigger question will Mrs. Lysander allow him to wonder that far away from home unattended. I would trust her judgment on this issue.

Ehh opinions are like assholes.

I had a friend text me the initial sequence with the shove in the back that started the melee. Then saw the video of the “fight”. It just saddens me to see such events. I have no idea of history of the two teams, mood of the game, etc. This whole thing just seems a microcosm of society today. Sports are suppose to be a diversion, something enjoyable to entertain us, part of the educational process for the participants. These kind of events just puts a black eye on everything. The IHSAA has a history of dealing with these sorts of things pretty harshly and I’m sure they will be in the office bright and early this morning dealing with this situation. I just think it’s time we as a society stand up and say “this type of behavior is unacceptable under any circumstances”. I am in no way attempting to place blame on anyone in particular, I’m sure there’s plenty of blame to go around.

I am not a fan of changing the rules during a tournament.

Ehhh, I’m used to it.

I was very impressed with BC tonight. Several times would have been a good spot to lay down and it never happened.

First thing you need to do is talk to Howard Jones. Find out what he did.
