  1. Roncalli is much improved this season....yet still taking polls as to what other people decide that they need call themselves. Hopefully they are not so indefinite in their Catholicism....
  2. Thanks. Brebeuf’s cancellation today (9/18) was missing both here and on the currently posted schedule. It appeared they were playing this weekend vs. Culver YET skipping next weekend vs. Roncalli (which, I think, would have been a hellacious game).
  3. Consider me confused. On September 25, Roncalli was supposed to play Brebeuf in a Circle City Conference game. A CONFERENCE GAME. Per the most recent update, this game has been cancelled and Roncalli is now playing Lafayette Harrison. Brebeuf is, apparently, just sitting out that weekend? Why? Preemptive COVID-19 infections?
  4. I was bummed to read the PM late last night from TD. He was a fixture here before I first discovered the GID and to a a very real extent - a kindred spirit (particularly when I used to frequent the OOB) although, on rare occasion, I’d get a bug up my rear end when it came to TD’s intense “MIC love”....kind of like I do about another school further east on 56th Street. I wish him and his the absolute best....most especially his son who is an officer in the Special Forces. Over the years, there were many times when something bugged me here that I would reach out to him to discuss. Going to miss that. That said, I understand his decision and respect it.....just wish it wasn’t so. I think the GID is going to be the lesser for it, unfortunately. It certainly will be from my perspective.
  5. Keep trying......I am admittedly ambivalent...I really don’t care. I’m just looking at who has visited LOS these last 20 years. Seems pretty clear. Good luck, though, tying your identity to a city in another state that you don’t even live in. BTW, I’m a proud hillbilly from Southeast Indiana....not Cincinnati.
  6. Humility....an Irish quality I always appreciate.
  7. Okay...I missed Andrean. Still, the “Region” is the 2nd largest population concentration in the state of Indiana (roughly 820,000)....yet a school in St Leon, Indiana (population 671) has been featured at LOS more times than any school from the “Region” over the last few years.
  8. Going to be honest. Not trying to be nasty....but puzzled by the general overall uncompetitive nature of the area. If I were some dude from outside the State and I had to go to Indianapolis every year for the last 15-20 years for Thanksgiving and my in-laws insisted we go see the Indiana HS Football State Championships all those weekends, I wouldn’t recognize any single name of any High School listed in the above references (I would recognize Lowell...but they weren’t mentioned). None....nada. I would know the names of a LOT of teams in Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne, South Bend and the Evansville Area. Hell, I’d know the name of a school in Southeast Indiana who’s town is the equivalent of postage stamp (East Central). Why is the “Region”, almost alone, simply not competitive? Unless you folks want to claim Rensselaer along with Lowell.
  9. So far, I am not seeing any evidence of this. It’s not listed as playing on IHSAATV or affiliates. Chatard did webcast the East Central home game on Facebook a couple of weeks ago but I’ve seen no announcement regarding this as of yet, either. In theory (note....”theory”), this is a game between No. 3 and No. 5 per Maxpreps/Calpreps and should technically (note....”technically”) constitute the premier game this weekend in Indiana.
  10. I thought you were being infiltrated by Athletic Directors when I saw this topic. I keep picturing this:
  11. Thumbs Up: East Central defeating Moeller 21-6. This Indiana HS win over an historic GCL powerhouse has gone largely unremarked. I’m not sure there has been a bigger EIAC victory ever outside of East Central and Lawrenceburg’s prior State Championships. It seems like every corner of the State loves to b!tch and moan about being disrespected but there is nowhere in Indiana as overlooked as Southeastern Indiana. Congrats to East Central.
  12. I was out of town last week and, for whatever reason, couldn’t sign onto the GID all last week until just yesterday. I have stated previously, that I have no qualms with schools charging for video feeds....and I get why the IHSAA is doing it more often than in the past given their likely decrease in income. That said, I was surprised that WHMB TV-40 charged $10.00 this past Friday night to watch their Game of the Week (Chatard/Roncalli) on line. Just 2 weeks ago and in all years past, I have been able to watch their Game of the Week live online at no cost. Not sure why the change of policy on their part but it does seem to be taking a bit of advantage.
  13. Chatard. 10 East Central. O Tough, tough game.
  14. Chatard 7 EC 0 2nd Q. Feels like I’m watching Coach L Chatard v Coach L Chatard . Hard nosed stuff.
  15. Thank you (from an ancient, as it appears, Metamora kid).
  16. Inter-sectional? Assuming this needs to be on the OOB.
  17. Think I’ve asked this previously elsewhere (while, well deservedly, expressing my absolute snail-level disdain for WRBI’s Ron Raper) is the Chatard/EC game going to be carried on broadcast or radio....other than Chatard’s Facebook? If so, where?
  18. Just kind of my personal gig. I always figured that if I really disagreed enough with someone enough to give them a downtick I, at least, ought to talk it out. If not, then they just weren’t worth the time to give a downtick to anyway. Again, that’s just me....
