You can rearrange the deck chairs however you see fit, half the teams will lose, half the teams will win, and we will finish with 6 state champs. Never going to make if perfect for everyone. Someone is always going to have a gripe. You solve one problem, and 2 more pop up.

Anyone have any prognostications for next fall. Being the resident Bremen homer, I think the Lions should be favorites to win the North/South/Small school division. They need to replace a couple skill positions, but only lost 5 or 6 seniors. The Junior class that will be Seniors has played a lot of varsity and have been successful through their years in the program. The need a couple kids to come back from injuries and grade suspensions, if those kids are in the fold it will add much needed depth. I like their chances, but Jimtown is a thorn in their side, even with Jimtown being dow

Yep, when I do chime in I try and be respectful, I don't want to downgrade any programs efforts.

Probably not.

No. 2 dollars a month, maybe.

I started reading this site in 2000-2001 when I was a 18/19 year old freshmen at Ball State. I'm now a fat, old, weak, and dumb 39 year divorced single dad raising 2 sons on my own. It's not that I don't love the debates and reading the information, my attention has changed. I also don't fire of a response like I did when I was younger. I read things, raise my eyebrows, and move on.

Plymouth is in a talent void right now. The are in the midst of a few lean years. I expect them to pick back up again in the future.

The visitor side of Fairfield is horrendous. The field is in a bowl/low spot and they have like 8 rows of bleachers set on a concrete slab, you can barely see over the team on the sidelines. This is the best image I could find of it.

What schools in the state are still not meeting in person?

My dad had 9 kids and had a range of 29 years. My siblings and I graduated in 89, 90, 94, 99, 00, 01, 02, 06, and 08.

Class of 2000.

What colleges will be attending this year?

When did Oldenburg Academy pull the plug on football?

Bremen was atrocious.

Why not both?

Maybe

Bremen is Kelly Green and White, for a time had a gold trim, then had silver trim, now they have a black trim.

I don’t think the 3 smaller schools embarrass themselves. They all have sports they are strong in, they all have sports they are weak in. The NIC is a step up from the old NSC days, but as a whole they hold their own.

Milan is in a separate conference for football and wrestling.

Pay to play? Fundraiser’s? Boosters? Skip new uniforms? Cut coaching stipends? Other options? Mix and match different cost cutting measurements. Everything is on the table. Some will be fine, others will struggle.

And you don’t see the good folks of Tippecanoe County begging to consolidate schools to chase trophy’s.

Sounds like a lot less opportunity in athletics.

Don J Bunge Field in Bremen, named for the patriarch of Bremen football. He started the program in the 50’s. Planted the grass seed himself on that field.

Not to rain on your parade, but that wasn’t the first meeting between Pioneer and Bremen. 😉

This is a reminder to check in on your friends. Mental health issues are starting to wise as a result of this pandemic. Combine that with the start of the colder weather and darker days, some individuals may need more love and attention. It is important to know that some individuals may loss touch with reality and not even realize that they are falling into a deep dark pit of despair.
