I come to this forum for Football, when I want to experience other things, I go elsewhere.

Typo there—oops.

You made the right call.

I peruse the list of topics and am most pleased: insights on the the Hoosier Conference, HNAC, Hoosier Hills Conference, MIC, Northeastern part of our great state, PAC, WRC, and many other leagues. I also like info on great players, polls, although hype pieces on certain schools leave much to be desired. With all that going on, why even bother with that OOB nonsense? I’d be very remiss if I didn’t mention the Region, lots of great tradition you here...

Won’t happen. I’ve got better things to do.

Exactly. If one feel the need to be political, and there’s a need right now, there are many more platforms worth exploring.

Nobody gets all the cards.

Indeed.

I’ll have some fries with that shake.

Yes, 14 games, which would make it a full season. We’re just a few games and some rando is ready to crown them best ever. In the words of Lee Corso, “Not so fast, my (yeah, whatever)...”

Got it.

It would as all teams must be considered, not just current day. Although it’s impressive that Center Grove has began their season without a loss, are they only team to do so? Methinks not...

Absolutely. Pioneer and Lafayette Central Catholic have also had legendary teams. We also have New Palestine.

Thank you for the well-explained comment. In reading and comprehending it, the Trojans are just another link in the chain, nothing more.

There are many other teams from seasons past who would disagree. Being undefeated is nothing new.

Never said they weren’t...

Thanks! Just keeping it real...

1957 called. They want the word “dandy” back as it is no longer in contemporary use.

Or they might not. Season is just half over, a hell of a lot can happen. No victory is guaranteed.

I though you were a Defensive End. In my way, I was a Split End, Safety, and place kicker who also punted. I also sold popcorn at halftime and djed the dances...

My poll: 1. Merrillville—undefeated for a reason 2. Valpo—also undefeated for a reason, but with fewer style points 3. Lowell—RDP is back, baby. 4. Andrean—their one loss should have been closer 5. Kankakee Valley—no signature win yet. 6. Hobart—see Andean’s comment 7. Hanover Central—Blaze Cano will lead them 8. Crown Point—also-ran DAC school 9. Wheeler—Starting to right the ship 10. Chesterton—would be higher if not falling asleep vs. 2A Pioneer 11. Michigan City—unknown how good they would have been prior to Covid 12. Griffith—throttled a very good Hanover squad

One thing I don’t care about.

Other than Valpo and Merrillville, I think the Big 4 of the NCC (Andrean, Hobart, KV, and Lowell) are better than the Duneland teams.

Prayers, indeed. The death of a young person is always a tragedy.

Totally does.
