One of the best. I'll definitely miss our pregame talks on the sidelines. Even though they were usually short, they could contain a lot of info.

We mainly talked fishing. JET loved to fish and I would give anything to have got to take him!

Jerry will never relinquish control enough. Been telling a friend of mine for years that the biggest problem the cowboys have is JERRY JONES! I give up on them a few years ago now. All they are now is Stephen A Smiths punching bag.

Tom Landry learned he was fired listening to the radio on his way back from  playing golf. Jerry didn’t even have the decency to tell him to his face. When this went down he lost the community and the Cowboys have gone down hill since. Jerry Jones has always been at fault.

Did Nick drop by today with news about Roy’s goat?

I guarantee that Stone Cold man should try and hire this Saban man.  Or that Belichick man. 

Heard the goat hadn’t eat since Christmas!

Yep and that one player got a good talking to after the game by another player!Rules were different back then compared to now,if you leave the bench now you are automatically suspended.Back then all for one and one for all.Not saying that's the correct thing to do but it's what we or most of us lived by as team mates.That was a basketbrawl this wasn't no where close to that one.just sad that a fan started this one.We were going at it all night with Polk.Then my dad and Frog went to " talk " to the refs for letting it go on.LOL.I remember Coach McCollum looking and me and Thurmer and said LOOK you made me ruin my new pants!!I loved the way he coached tho thats why I wanted my son to play for him.He could coach our kind of ball.As far a discipline,we got a warning if it happened again we would  have no post season in any sport.(if you remember the Vonore football issue in 86 i think it was that's why we got that answer)

Speaking of Vonore… most of y’all wouldn’t believe what transpired in a scrimmage in1970. We took about 25 players and we were putting it on them pretty good. We had a couple of players different from them and it didn’t take long before it was on. Fans coming off the sidelines , Coaches going at it, it lasted about 15 minutes. They called the scrimmage then the best part was in the locker room afterwards when a couple of their players came in where we were dressing.  lol one guy had a pack of lucky strikes rolled up in his sleeves and all were smoking like nothing even happened. Never forget that. Went thru there last week to stop at Benton’s to get some Bacon and noticed the lake has changed that place since then.

A dumpster fire doesn't mean anything wrong with the kids that are playing football for these programs but usually how things are handled by adults that have an effect on these programs that put them in bad positions. A lot of people may have forgotten this but Sunbright had good seasons in the past like 2010 8-3, 2011 7-4, 2012 7-4, 2014 7-5 2017 6-5 and even 2020 the covid year they had a 4-7 record but since they are 2-28. Now all the sudden no one wants to play or even coach there so what has happened.

Those  people are getting harder to find these days. Here’s hoping that these Schools that have fallen on hard times finds one these gems!

Athletes, tradition, community involvement, and a dedicated Coach who has 100% backing from the School and Community, and half the kids eating plenty of  biscuits and gravy will usually keep the fire out!

Curious to see what TSSAA says.  This was bad!  The Oakdale parent should have never went over to the opposing side.  This particular parent has a long time history of being thrown out of games.  Unacceptable on both sides.  

I would hope the TSSAA would not punish teams for the actions of adult idiots!

@BarneySox2007 define the  "dumpster fire" meaning  in your topic heading.  

Team's records?  Plus?   Other things? 

Lookout Valley does well to field a team year in and year out, but yet they do. 

There are small schools that struggle with low enrollments,   And I'd never call them a dumpster fire for stepping up and trying to compete in football in the TSSAA playoff format. 

So, "define" it in your terms.  

Other things….tearing a 396 down and putting back together….

Ms. Metz gave me a well deserved thump on the head once.

I use to love her stories…especially about her escaping China hidden in a mailbag during the revolt!

I think the only way a player should be able to transfer is on a legitimate move to another school district...but i would say make sure there is an official move of the entire family or immediate guardian of the kid/kids. then allow them that one time transfer rule to the school they moved to that district of but allow them to play that year. however, if they move again, they will have to sit regardless of the reason that way we do not have kids playing at 4 schools in a 4 year span trying to seek a championship team. 

When the NIL hits all a kid will have to do is take the TSSAA to court and goodbye transfer rule. 

If they legalize NIL how will it affect TSSAA rulings?

We were counting in the quarterfinal playoff game. SP loses 9 starters on defense and 8 on offense. Next season especially early will be a struggle.   

Them LBs will be hard to replace

He’s not that old. He is a lot younger than he tells people. Was at a game at one of the Marshall Co schools a couple of years ago and talked to someone who knows him. If you knew who he was you would laugh. 

That’s what I was told too by a very reliable source

When you and your roommate play High School fantasy football again next year and you want a winner, pick SP!

I will say this, when the chips were down and questions abound about what the Pirates were going to do? The answer was strong, "run the ball" and they did! Over and over, to the point that everyone in the stadium and across the state knew what was coming and there was no stopping it. It was 100 years of SP football in 12 minutes. (no I'm not a dyed in the wool Pirate,but maybe OP & RLH will give me a pass) Oh and.....MTCS COUGARS STATE CHAMPIONS DII- A!!! Only loss was to these Pirates, BUT our Mr. Football was out, our stating left tackle was out, our #2 RB was hobbled! You think I'm kidding but I'm not!

Congrats on state
