A parent's job is to CHEER for their daughter. Period. Not yell at a ref. Not berate a teen age young lady. Not argue with fans. BLESS YOUR DAUGHTER WITH WORDS OF AFFIRMATION. Sounds cheesy.... but it works. Trust me.

Me "Why did the center back them up 15 yards?!?" 4th official "the rule states AT LEAST 10 yards, coach. That is how it is written" NFHS rule 8-1-2 "Players opposing the kicker shall be at least 10 yards from the ball until it is kicked." Me: "So, by that logic, he could back them up 50 yards and be within the rule?" 4th official "......."

Much thanks.... I expect to see you there tomorrow.

How can a player have 2 yellow cards without being thrown out?

I'm calling a Alcoa vs. Grace (Nashville) final.

Bylaws are set by the districts. BGA and CPA are actually having to do a coin toss for first seed in the tournament as we tied 1-1 and then had a +3 goal differential with all other district opponents (and were not scored upon).

Moondog and Elmer probably are sharing the same glue. The game started off with DCA having the run of play. They have a couple of girls who, when working together, really gave some good looks at goal. Faith is always a threat from most any distance. I think when they get everyone healthy, they will do some damage. Coach Smith knows his stuff. In D2 A, just having a couple of injuries can really make a huge impact.

Ha ha.... you haven't been here long enough to go back to the EastTNref days.... And booger PICKS on everyone so...

He probably has been... Not sure if Mountain is referring to the club coach using this "tactic" or me. Either way, "going to the corners" has served me well over the past 25 years. It might not be a popular tactic, but it definitely wins games. I do NOT condone players intentionally kicking a ball away, or walking slowly to a ball, but I do stress to be smart about restarts. No need to sprint to get the ball back in. My thoughts have always been, if we have the ball, they don't. So if we possess to the corner, they can't score. If we cross and score another goal, GREAT! But if we miss or the keeper saves it, then that gives the opponent the chance to counter and score (of which Oak Ridge was doing quite well near the end). I think Oak Ridge will do quite well. Their last goal was a CRACKER from about 30 yards out! Good luck to Gorman and the Lady Wildcats!

It was a fun match. 1-0 CPA 1-1 OR 1-2 OR 2-2 3-2 CPA 4-2 CPA 4-3 CPA A few more minutes and OR might have tied it up! Great to see Gorman back in the saddle. He will get those teams ready for the post season!

Oh, they still can.... they just have to do it in the first half.

Looking forward to it!!!! Stop by and say hi on Saturday!

DUDE! And you beat Catholic 4-2! Looking forward to our game on Saturday. Tell Gorman to take it easy on us!

Aw shucks.... I'm blushing! It sure aint the coach that get's the CPA team going.... he just rolls out a bad of balls and then takes a nap in the soccer shed.

Cobra is right. At 5-0 it's a "running clock". At HALF, if there is a 9 goal differential (at any time after the start of the second half), the game is over.

Props to BGA. They finished 4th in the region and then came on like gangbusters having to travel to CAK, then St. Georges, then play us for the third time. They executed their game plan very well. My hats off to them.

Oh, it is definitely worth my time (don't know if it is worth his, though)! Ha ha.

You realize it takes me about 10 minutes to translate your posts into something I can read, right? I imagine it takes you about as long to put it in Booger-ese...

Don't bring me into this.... I didn't talk to Boogs.

1. Hilarious GIF 2. I'm not taking that bet 3. I am sure he can kick it further than 120 feet 4. Such wisdom from Booger. Never thought I would say that.

Wow!

Rare is the team that is full strength at this point of the year. Hope your center back is better now. I think you all will make a deep run, even without him.

Were you not at full strength against us?
