That doesn't quite have the sting you intended it to have. One of my many useless degrees is from UTM. Good try though. And by embarrassing, I meant on both sides of the ball.

State championships need to hurry up and get here. The football being played at Tucker Stadium tonight is embarrassing. I think the guys were more worried about midterms than playing a mid-week game (we're a nerdy school if you didn't know).

Final HC 37 - SHS 7

Just FYI: The Hampton Inn is now open after the remodel here in Cookeville. Not that anyone should making plans just yet...

Sounds like somebody needs to take a lap or fifty at the next practice.

It would be a good thing to enlarge, copy, and post on the locker room wall.

Interesting quote in today's Clarksville Leaf-Chronicle: “We’re not any more confident having played Henry County well,†Rossview coach Ron Lambert said. “We didn’t play well enough to win and that’s the bottom line. I felt like Henry County wasn’t that much better than we were so regardless of what the weather was like, that was a game we felt we should have won. Losing isn’t a part of our makeup anymore so we’re confident going into any game because we know we can play with any team.â€

You could always pitch a tent in the living room. That'd block those commercials.

Priapism is a hard subject to talk about with your kids.

Corps style means that there is a lineage traced back to military drum and bugle corps that promoted musical excellence and marching precision. That's morphed over the years with the influence of college marching bands, music education programs, modern dance, Winter Guard International (WGI), and Drum Corps International (DCI). You may have read in the paper where two of the Marching Patriots performed in the Open Class division of DCI this year. Here's an example from this season's DCI World Class champion's Finals encore (keep in mind that these are kids less than 22 y/o...skip to 2:30 to see what I'm talking about in regards to musical excellence): http://youtu.be/AJ8fn-wXCqY Show bands have their roots in jazz tradition and southern brass bands...more for local events, celebrations, etc. It's more along the lines of entertainment rather than musical/marching excellence. These groups are both musical/marching groups, but of totally different genres.

In the marching world it allows a base-neutral so that the rest of the uniform can be adapted for the theme of show. There are some HS bands (with million dollar budgets, see Indiana, Texas) that add a different jacket or performance wear onto the uniform just for the show and have different uniforms for football games.

In my not so humble opinion and extensive marching arts knowledge and experience, corps styles bands and show bands are not comparable nor on the same musical level.
