  1. District 2-AA had 3 of 4 in the region semi's last year. PF has won the Region 2 out of 3 years. I think that makes 2-AA plenty strong against 1-AA. Now there is no doubt that year in year out, Region 2 is stronger than Region 1, but remember PF was only 7 pts from a state appearance last year. They have a shot, may not make it, but they have a shot. By the way, Sullivan Central was the last team to go to state from Region 1 and that was in 2004-05. nftc, thought you were a GP fan in football, now you seem to be a Cosby fan, I think PF handled them both pretty well, if PF is overated what does that make them. PF may not make it anywhere this year, but as of right now they are definately one of the top teams in this area.
  2. 06-07 PF-83 GP-52 Complete domination. PF showed who the dominant team was from the opening tip. It was very impressive. For those of you that want to claim GP played bad, they played that way because of the defensive intensity that PF brought to that game. Heck, GP hit 8 threes and got beat by 31. Jcflash, You can't honestly think that PF is the most talented team in the state. I am not sure they are the most talented team in their district, but they are the best TEAM I have seen in east TN this year. By the way, PFDAD already told everybody he was Harper, so dont act like you are decoding a bomb. It actually says quite a lot when PF's former coach, who has a son playing, states that PF's present coach is the best in the area. By the way, he brings up a good point, how many of PF's seniors got PT in middle school. Remember Wright had them as Freshman, he has been their only coach for 4 years. Coincidence?
  3. Just so you know, GP hasn't played anyone close to PF this year either. That ineffective offense is one of the best motions I have seen in a long time.
  4. I am sorry, PF is the best team in the state. They should easily win the State Championship and beat everyone by at least 50 on their way to the title. I think it unbelievable that they are not ranked in the nation. With the talent on this team they are easily a top five team in the nation. There does that make me a true PF fan. You know you can root for a team and be realistic and humble all at the same time.
  5. Find where I have said one negative thing about PF.
  6. Wow three exclamation points, I guess that means you are really serious. I should probably take your warning and never come back. You are the classic CoachT poster, when you don't agree with someone and you can find no facts to back up your point, you name call and threaten. That's beautiful. Here let me help you out since you can't find your facts. PF vs. GP last 5 years 01-02 GP-86 PF-54 GP-87 PF-41 GP-85 PF-47 02-03 GP-57 PF-48 PF-81 GP-73 PF-47 GP-38 03-04 PF-54 GP-45 PF-49 GP-39 04-05 PF-52 GP-47 PF-70 GP-43 Only PF blowout so far! 05-06 PF-61 GP-48 I don't consider 12 or 13 point wins blowouts. PF-63 GP-51 Now this doesn't look like a series dominated by blowouts. PF may very well blowout GP tonight. They are very capable, but I wouldn't be surprised to see GP make a game of it. ps. I am so glad that you are not a part of the bball team. I knew Coach Wrights boys had more class than that!
  7. Sorry, I did have a figure wrong. If you take $60 at 220 contest. its $13200. You figure that 116 days is about 1/3 of the year that is 39,600 (thats more than most of the coaches) or look at as 1/2 the year its 26,400 (thats more than a lot of coaches). The point is that it is good money for a part time job.
  8. You have never seen me say a bad word about PF. I give RESPECT to other teams in this district and county, maybe that is a lesson that a few of you need to learn. I hope that these are just students and not players on here tooting their own horn. Mr. facts, give me the scores of all PF/GP games over the past five years, do you know them, because I do.
  9. Bigwes68 wrote, I hear the pay there is pretty good, not like the $50 or so we get for working two middle school games, or $70 for two varsity games - . In 2006, between football, baseball, softball, basketball and volleyball, I have officiated a total of 220 contests which encompasses 116 dates. This does not include trips to state and local meetings, camps, clinics, etc. This also includes scrimmages and play-days for which I was not paid. I have put over 4,000 miles on my car this year JUST from officiating. I have also accumulated nearly $1,000 in expenses, not counting mileage. So in the long run, unless you are good enough to move up to the higher levels, the money really isn't that great. If you take an average of $60 per night and assume you work 5 hours per night, including travel, take your 116 dates and 220 contest and turn that into 8 hour days for 360 days, and it works about to be about $66,000 a year. Pretty good pay for a part time job. I am tired of hearing about how underpaid officials are. How many other jobs could you do where you could make $20-$30/hour and have complete power while you are working. I agree it is a hard job and I would not want to do it, but if you CHOOSE to be an official you know what you are getting into. I also understand that most officials are good, but as the saying goes, you are only as strong as your weakest link. I think the problem most people have is that there is no accountability with officials. If this article is true, then that official was able to completely determine the outcome of a game and there was nothing that anyone could do about it. I guarantee you that if you checked the best officials in the state give out less technicals than everyone else. Bad officials give T's to compensate for bad calls and there is nothing that can be done about it. I know i will get raped by some officials on here for writing this, but oh well, i guess it will feel good for them to dish it some.lol
  10. I know this rivalry well, you might want to check your facts. These games have all been close, with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 games through the years. As far as blowouts go, GP has probably blown out PF more than the other way around.
  11. Any reason why? Wow, I really expected him to have a breakout year.
  12. This game is never a blowout. It's too big of a rivalry for that. GP is playing well and has plenty of talent to compete in 2-AA. This is a big game and will be close and hard fought as always.
  13. I was one that thought Rutledge would be at or near the top of the district this year. I knew that Hudson and Reischling would be tough to replace, but I thought that McBee and Horsely could get it done and that Garrett would step up. This prediction was made with the utmost respect for Rutledge. I still think they are very capable of playing better and being a contender. Remember how they started last year and how they finished. PF and Claiborne seem to be the favorites right now, but GP and Union seem to both be playing pretty well also. I think, just like every year in this district, you will see some upsets and probably have 3 to 4 teams in the hunt in Feb.
  14. I am not sure that anyone has ever gone undefeated in this district. At least not in a long time. Playing on the road in this district is too hard to go through undefeated. I agree PF is probably the favorite, but I think right know Claiborne is probably jsut as good. The rest are all going to get better as teh season goes and we will head into another crazy district tournament.
