Exactly, it’s nothing to get worked up about. It’s for fun. Same with the other polls.

Running clock starts at half, and from the looks of it, everyone of the backs up played.

Are we now advocating taking a knee in the first quarter?

Wonder how the game contract reads. Usually there is a buy out clause.

Sagarin is almost accurate in the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Give or take a few hiccups.

LaVille and Glenn will be a fun out of conference game.

Why would Glenn agree to that? Money would be my guess.

Bremen 21 Glenn7-Falcon QB misses game with Covid tracing. New Prairie 9 Adams 0 Jimtown 69 Clay 8

Glenn and Bremen are evenly matched. You can add any football clliche' you want to predict the game. Execution, heart, drive, motivation. Whoever shows up to play 48 minutes+ will come away with the victory.

Also, like NLC stated, it really only measures in state games. Out of state games are not measured.

It means nothing and is not accurate. Nothing to be worried about.

Well said.

Hang out with a few basketball coaches and see if that changes your opinion. Actually I don't think it is one sport more selfish than the other, it comes down to the individual head coaches.

I know. It stinks. I don't know if there is even a problem or a solution. It's just something that I've noticed and discussed with people the last few years.

Even some those are down in numbers. Look at scouts. Major problems with enrollment, my sons local scouts disbanded.

I'm fine with ESports because at least kids are involved in a club/actvity.

This is the best comment so far. I think society as a whole has changed interests and have found other things to occupy our time.

Even in rural communities, the number of kids working on farms is way down. Talk to farmers, they have went to big round bails for hay because they can not get teens to bail hay.

I am participation drops in rural schools in a number of activities. So I don't know if the 1 high school community argument holds water. Statistically speaking as well, teen age participation in the labor market is at an all time low. Less high school kids work an after school job than previous generations.

True

I would hear stories about my grandparents being apart of bowling leagues, lodges, women’s clubs, and many social clubs. I was talking about this the other day with a friend how are generation is not involved in social outings like past generations. You’re absolutely right, we are definitely more insular.

I live in SE Indiana and work with four schools. I also keep tabs with former teachers and friends I worked with in Northern Indiana. A general pattern that seems to be developing in a malaise or apathy from student bodies. Numbers in many extracurriculars are down. A few students at most places seem to be doing the heavy lifting of keeping clubs and activities going. Not all this is on the students either. Teachers aren't as involved as a result of workloads. Parents are overworked and don't seem to push students into sports or clubs. I am sure this is a great sociology case study into this somewhere. What can be done to turn this around? Those schools that aren't experiencing this, what is the secret.

Is there a training facility/football club in the Michiana that is like what Fort Wayne has with AWP and some of the other places in Indianapolis for Michiana athletes. As a region football and other sports have seem to be sliding compared to the other areas of the state.
