I don't keep up with west Tennessee. I may throw BA in with MBA and McCallie if I knew who was replace those seniors.

1. Ensworth 2. Baylor 3. MBA 3. McCallie 5. BA 6. Ryan 7. JP2

I need a score for the Game of the Century. No trash talk, no filler.

I will go with MBA and MUS. Clock strikes midnight on Ensworth.

I am picking MUS, Briarcrest, Ensworth and MBA.

I don't see anyone hanging with Ensworth, except maybe MUS, who they let back in after getting a 35-14 lead.

I love the banter among you "men of honor".

Ensworth defeated Brentwood Academy 20-0. BA had 17 rushing attempts for 6 yards. EHS piled up 368 rushing yards and only punted 3 times.

Hearing either one of these teams take the high road and point a finger at the other is PURE COMEDY GOLD!

Lost in all this pregame analysis (halftime scores against common opponents!) and the postgame last-play-of the-game nonsense ("men of honor"!) is the fact that Ensworth just rolled Brentwood Academy.

This is too funny! Who said a few days ago: "Tough to tell f-men and s-mores to drop dead on the field. I guess we could take a knee for the entire 4th quarter?"

If you are mad about the end of the game, you don't get it. Ensworth is not about Friday Night Lights, pageantry, sportsmanship, etc... Ensworth is about putting kids in college football programs. Friday nights are nothing more than showcase nights (for everyone, including the subs), and this Friday was on national television. If you think the coaches feel bad, you are nuts. I think the "competition" bores them. I don't really like Ensworth, but acknowledge that they are simply on a different level, playing a different game.

I have seen each team twice. No need to defend picking the reigning champs. What has the head-to-head record been over the last couple years?

Nah, running up the score after the outcome of a game is no longer in question is considered bad sportsmanship by most, especially in high school and below, where talent discrepancies happen more often. I can't believe I just had to type that...

EHS 35 BA 10

I hope you're joking.

Over by the end of the first quarter. Brentwood Academy 49 Baylor 3

No one cares about a high school football poll.

Ensworth 28 Baylor 7

Brentwood Academy 49 Pope John Paul II 6

Trinity 63, MBA 7

I noticed that pitchers aren't jamming the big dudes inside. Yet. They will.

Youth baseball has been taken from the ogre and returned to the athlete.

"You might be a redneck if ..." you bring a cowbell to a baseball game.

Batting averages and extra base hits will crash.
