And, just so we're clear... The consensus from fans of other schools is that Fulton should be fored to play outside of its classification simply because they are better than everyone else? They've averaged 83.5 points so far against two teams in higher classifications already. What good is that going to do? It's silly that jealous fans want to punish the Falcons simply because they are better than your teams are.

If Fulton is getting kids from outside their zone, isn't that a Knox County Schools issue? And the question I'd follow up with is this: WHY, pray tell, would KCS make that exception for Fulton? Now, if it's allowed because kids are coming into the vocational system at Fulton, I don't see what the problem is. The rumors and innuendo are nothing more than jealous fans who cannot grasp that this staff works really hard to develop the great athletes who come through the pipeline. And they come from fans who clearly don't understand the level of integrity that this staff possesses. These men are coaches, teachers, and most of all, mentors who demonstrate class and integrity to their players. As much as they want these young men to win State Championships, they want them to be good men. And, for the record, it's my understanding that Quarles is the one who doesn't want the Fulton/Maryville matchup to happen. (And this is coming from someone who would know.) I don't bring that up to besmirch Quarles, as I believe that he and his staff are every bit the men of integrity that Fulton's staff is.

Last night, in fact. Of course, Birmingham is no Knoxville. Oh, how I miss Spicy's.

Congrats DL. You played well today, and you played with fewer mistakes. That's a tough combination for any team to overcome. Congrats Falcons for a good year. I remember when 1-9 or 2-8 was the norm at Fulton. Buck and his staff have done a wonderful job building a state power on Broadway. It just wasn't to be this year. Anybody wanna go for a 3rd straight title game next year?

They don't even have a placekicker.

Fulton's offense playing well so far this half. Cobb is carrying the Falcons, literally. Touchdown Fulton. Conversion failed. Fulton leads DL by a score of 18-17 with 5:24 left. Perhaps my prediction of FHS 30, DL 24 might hold up!

Fulton throws another pick on a trick play. DL takes a knee, and goes to half up 17-12.

Mapp... glad to help. YOu sure it isn't working? Mine is working fine. Are you sure you didn't just pick it up during one of their minute long dead air spots?

Field sounds slick. Lots of slips so far today. Fulton with a nice gain on a screen. Timeout Fulton, near mid field.

Since moving to Alabama, I have never missed Knoxville more than I do today. Of course, I've missed it while having to watch UT games on the internet, but today is the worst. First Fulton championship I've missed.FG by DL. DL 17, Fulton 12.Looks like my prediction of FHS 30, DL 24 has no shot at holding up.

Come on, Falcons, get the big stop here. 4th down Lipscomb. Timeout DL.

Canadian... where is East TN are you?

TD Fulton. 2 pt conversion is no good, DL 14, Fulton 12.

Go to the coacht hmepage, and there is a link litsted under the game. Streaming audio.

DL throws a pick, and after a nice run, another penalty. Fulton 1st and 10 at the Lipscomb 43.
