Congrats CPA. Good luck the rest of the way. Would love to see CPA against LC. To the Dawgs, congrats on a good season. I really thought this was going to be our year, after last season. But this team proved to lack the same intensity and leadership that last year's team had. Oh well, it's over now. A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE IN THE OFF-SEASON!!!

Congrats to both teams on advancing to the 2nd round. This should be a really great game! I think DawgBallFan and myself might need to make a trip to the 'Wald on Friday! Go Panthers!

No way Fairview wins this game. Good luck to both teams.

Good luck to the Panthers and good health to both teams!

We appreciate all the well wishes from LC this week. Good luck to the Panthers as well!

Any truth to the rumor that the reason you all keep referring to #85 as "Z" or "Mr. Mason" is because he is a wee little man and a wee little man is he? /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

Notre Dame fans of old were the last folks to have as much "blind optimism" as you display on here. You lost the first LC game 37-0. Do you really think you stand a chance in this one? LC 35 Waverly 7

Thanks for the scouting report! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" /> Again, thanks for the love. You are saying things I never thought I would hear from a Panther! /roflolk.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflolk:" border="0" alt="roflolk.gif" />

Thanks for the love! Good luck to LC this week!

We were both at church on Sunday night. As for the writing on the wall, you might want to look at your own wall. You are lucky to have made the playoffs!

Thanks for the shout out! One half of the Dynamic Duo is present and accounted for. Look for DBF to make his entrance soon. Where do I start? You all have covered a lot of ground. How about the seeding? I seem to recall there being some complaining last season coming from the CPA folks because they had to play someone from their own region in the 1st round. Ah, what a shame! Well apparently somebody listened and the private schools' opinions carry some weight with the TSSAA. Because this year we get the shaft so that GP and CPA don't have to play each other again - that would be such a travesty! And who are the whiners?!? About the game itself...we have a lot of seniors on their way out. Honestly, this game will be mostly about how badly they want to continue to play high school football. I believe we have the talent, coaching and opportunity to win this game. CPA is a good football team and if we bring anything less than our "A" game - it will be a long night. Looking forward to a good, healthy and well played game!

Last post on page 5...it is like a train wreck (or an episode of Jerry Springer), you just can't stop LOOKING!

The point of the thread was to discuss the game. Then East fans started dogging out their own coaching staff. Then the coaching staff (supposedly) posted a defensive and ill-advised message. How is that anything like HC "beating down a 1-8 team"? Weren't you the guy that posted the icon 'eating popcorn' just a short while ago? Now you are trying to play Thread Police?

Coaches have the right to post. It's just not very smart and often counter-productive. I guarantee that they are frustrated but this is not the place to vent. And I agree that they have fought an uphill battle with little support.

Are you kidding me?!? We already had one East person impersonating Mr. Crabtree so I guess it is possible this is not really Coach Jones. If it is, why would you even get on here and respond to this garbage? Keep in mind that this is a public forum and people can voice their opinions regardless of what those opinions are. You have no right to tell this person or anyone else on here to keep quiet. Besides this East soap opera is entertaining me. /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

As they say in the Bud Light commercials...DUDE! Before I make my main point let me say this, I realize that your job is an extremely difficult one. You all just started varsity football. No doubt right now you are very frustrated. You never realized how critical and yet how unsupportive a fan base could be. Welcome to Hickman County. I am sure you have second guessed your decision more than once to take on this job. But never and I mean never should you #1 even VIEW a message board; #2 create a user account and #3 actually post messages, especially in response to criticism. Why do you think college and professional coaches say they don't read or pay attention to media reports? Could you imagine Phil Fulmer trying to respond to all the criticism he is facing right now? Let's chalk this one up to experience and count this as an error in judgement on your part. Learn from it and move on. By the way, you spoke of people "that post under hidden names". What are you doing, coach?

Dawgs 35 East 0! I told ya! Not one, not two men make a team! Congrats Dawgs, go home East! Next...

You have a better way to project/predict outcomes? I am into fact not fiction.

You wish you had those skills. Sounds like you need a grammar lesson while we are at it!

Heard the 'E' at midfield was done in toilet paper! That's classic! Have trouble getting the paint to stick to wet grass?

No smack from me, just facts. I have yet to predict a game. I never said we would beat Lewis Co. I have alluded to a victory over East, but anyone with any sense would admit to that outcome. Look, I do not expect you all to comprehend all the intelligent behaviors I exude. Just sit back and try to learn something.

No, it's called ignorance and arrogance and it will continue to get you beat!

The Eagles already have my respect. What they are doing is nowhere near easy. Playing with 30 or so kids and playing a varsity schedule right off the bat - can't be easy. The people I do not respect are the ones from East that are talking smack about what they are going to do to HC. Take your lumps, be quiet about it, be respectful to your opponents and when you do start to win a significant amount, the respect will come back to you ten fold.

I have checked the stats...that's why I posted what I did. Here are some more stats for you. East has been outscored 114 to 278 on the year. That is an average of 14 to 35 per game. East has scored a total of 17 TDs on the year, 9 of which have come in the 4th qtr. when they were no doubt playing against 2nd and 3rd string defenses. The other scoring by quarter breaks down this way - 1 in the 1st, 1 in the 2nd, 5 in the 3rd and the one score against Stewart County is not categorized by quarter. On the flip side, HC has outscored its opponents 209 to 121 on the season for an average of 26 to 15 per game. 48 of the 121 points scored on the Dawgs has been in the 4th qtr when a majority of the time the 2nd/3rd string has been in. The Dawgs have only allowed 10 first qtr points all season and those were all in the 1st game of the year. Up until two weeks ago they had not allowed a rushing TD in the 1st qtr since the 1st game.

Thanks for the reply. After reading your previous posts I figured you could straighten me out. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />
