Wow, I am eternally in your debt for the sociology, geography, interrogation, etc. lessons. However, as to diversity in Nordic countries, their diversity is right up there with Bledsoe county. I'm sure we all ought to aspire to live in countries where racist statements are punishable. You would certainly have my vote for arbiter of what is a racist statement. Heck, you already fancy yourself with the ability to ferret out racist thought. As for being a racist, I attended the first school (private) to integrate in 1966 in one of Tennessee's larger cities and observed the team bus turned away from a restaurant when it refused to serve our black players. That’s hardly personally experiencing racism but that is racism, not pointing out that a number of our top private schools add students in the 9th grade, many of whom posses above average athletic skills. If you want to attribute racism to the comment, be my guest.

Good post. TCA's story is inspirational. Whether Washington ever plays a down at Alabama, I'm sure he'll represent Trinity well. His performance Saturday was inspiring.

I didn't realize you are a member of the dreaded Race Police. Were you deputized by Al Sharpton or The Reverend Jessie Jackson? Whoever your sponsor is, it is impressive you can deliver the dreaded R accusation by merely reading a post about a high school football game and then assign racist tendencies. There is a position for you at the ACLU. Personally, as a descendent of Nordic ancestors, I am greatly offended that a person of your demonstrated sensitivity would so callously assume that Vikings would have anything to do with burning down Ensworth although I'm sure there would be a lot of loot available: You know, iPads, North Face fleeces, Michael Kors watches and accessories, etc.

Great game. I really want to commend both schools for their exemplary dedication to diversity in athletics. Few schools in our state can afford to assemble such an impressive number of students who, both large and small, can run the 40 in D1 completive times. It is truly an impressive and enviable accomplishment.

Scores anyone?

Notre Dame and Knox Catholic (just a little irony here) were in involved in a big fight that migrated to the stands. Both were punished and I believe fined but it has been a long time ago (before Coacht).

Kind of touchy, aren't we? I was originally responding to a post about some stupid little bird which supposedly chirped something about moving the traditionals to the boro. You commented about people from Chattanooga who would whine and gripe about a hypothetical move. My comment which offended your tender sensibilities was pointing out that a number of "your people" do an inordinate amount of whining and griping as you have just demonstrated regarding my posts. Thank you for making my point! Incredibly, Kevin Lenahan was able to rise from his humble high school education and I don't believe I ever heard the Leprachan whine and gripe. As far as the original topic, I'm thrilled with the move and a thank you to Clarksville for doing a great job hosting the event and setting the standard; kind of like Chattanooga did with the Spring Fling.

If you put a /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> after accusing someone of being arrogant, does that make it OK?

"maybe the Memphis side of the state can help but we heard that he got a concussion in the match he loss and wrestled the rest of the tournament with it. Nick did not look 100% the rest of the tournament but he stunk it up. Tough kid!" This is too funny. When you try to replace stunk with the correct word, it replaces it with the word stunk.

Baylor's not my people but you're right about whining. griping and crying except for the MAN, Jordan Leen!

You're be an expert on that topic. You'd have to go to a VOLS football board to find folks who know more about the subject of griping and whining than FR fans!

The comentators, who did a great job explaining wrestling to the uninitiated, said that the 157 class was the most competitive. They were correct; 2 undefeated wrestlers and 2 former national champions.

I left this picture of Jordan on another thread but it's just too good not to share. What a great competitor! http://cornellbigred.com/index.aspx?tab=wr...&path=wrest

this was great. I watched the matches on a big screen and used PIP to minimize the basketball game I was watching at the same time; two wrestling matches and basketball game at the same time! My wife hated it! I did turn off the basketball game when Leen wrestled.
