  1. Yep..good atmosphere. Gotta love Rotary Hog Hole! It does stink. Yep
  2. Gonna be exciting to watch Mondays game and the district tourney. Dresden Lions have to play hard every night to compete. They have no superstars, just a bunch of girls who can get gritty and fight! Go Lions
  3. I have to say, Lions are big creatures and with the size we have in Dresden...I think a name change is in order. Any ideas? Oompa Loompas? piglets? Or my favorite, The Dresden Weenie Dogs. hahaha
  4. The mighty bulldogs come into the hog hardcourt tonight for a big matchup of girls basketball! Good luck Lady Lions!
  5. I think you can beat all those teams listed. Just not 2a Dresden! But, I love the enthusiasm. Got to believe it before you do it. Go Lions!
  6. Number one reason they won a state title. UC players think like linemen! Best team concept ever! That is awesome.
  7. Yeah...we had to spend a ton putting new grass down this year, and since its "rotary" field you would figure they would foot that bill. If they paid for the field, bleachers, all of that then I understand..but if not it seems like they are taking advantage of the kids. Lions club down in Forrest spends a fortune on the sports programs there. I don't see them fundraising out of the kids pockets. Something doesn't add up, but being an outsider to the area I may not know the whole story. Would love to hear it. Noticed obion county tries to be equal with all their schools, but in weakley Westview gets 27000 for renting UTM stadium from the district and the other schools get ???? for upkeep on their field. We share our field with JR high along with two other schools. I understand they need more seats at Martins middle field, maybe parking...but to throw away 27000 grand seems a little unbalanced to the outsiders eye. Kids in Dresden, GLeason, and Greenfield seem to be getting the shaft. Not complaining, just stating the obvious. Questions questions questions. Please give an answer if your more knowing than this old guy.
  8. Are there any old time dresden folks on this that can explain why the field is called rotary field? Heard several explanations and then counters etc etc. I know they get our concessions stand, which is strange when there isn't a booster club. Figured there was something, but heard contrasting things. Just curious. Figured Id put it out there for the two or three dresden fans that know read this. Sure would like to know.
  9. Can't disagree with that. After today's weight room performance, have to say your right. Bunch of kids dragging down others being lazy will cost us. Should be kicked off team, but hard to play a game with 20. Same guys being lazy who are on the sidelines on gamedays begging for playing time. Playing time is won with work/effort/heart. Hope Hewett puts his boot up some rear-ends! Leaders can lend their boot anytime. When I say "go lions" that doesn't mean go hide or goof off when its time to work. FYI
  10. Maybe Lake County. Not sure if its been confirmed. Hope so, that is a good, fast team to play. I believe they run the spread. Should be good practice. Need a wing t team that likes to pound in a scrimmage next fall. Would be nice to see how our young defense hold up against that.
  11. Can The Lions win a district title? Will the laughing stop? I just love this topic. Funny. But, I do believe they are the best record in the district and still haven't played their best. Go Lions!
  12. Bradford, Huntin.. Still not playing for a full game, but better results. The Lady Lions start putting it together at tournament time and it will be a fun ride! Keep working girls. Even when the shots aren't falling, defense can win. Good job Coach Wests
  13. Spring ball gonna be good for lineman. Every other position will be interesting with most receivers, backs, dbs, lbs playing baseball and a baseball coach who thinks spring football is a waste of time. Suppose that means summer football and basketball is too? Heck...the pros should only practice during season...camps are useless. hahaha I hate baseball!
  14. 2nd half of season. Time to start showing up every night! Go Lions
  15. we are 2a. Only switch with a petition or every few years. Not this year. 1a for regular season and 2a for playoffs. The boys are mostly doing well. Some are still passive in the weight room, but after the next max in two weeks, they will be thanked for the hard work or called out for lack of effort. Basketball players lifting in the morning except for a palmersville kid who can't get a ride. Got a couple new kids out and I know of at least two 8th graders who have already started lifting. I have high hopes for every position. qb is the big question mark. But, it would be a big problem like in mckenzie...where they have 3 to choose from. hahaha
  16. still AA..playoffs. But enrollment is down. We will see after this year.
  17. wonder if westview paints our lion again? Maybe pink since not all of these kids can find time to lift during break. Yep, pink. For the other 75%...it will pay off.
  18. Don't care where we play, football is football. Maybe we play there because the board spends 27,000 a year to rent it and we figured since we get zero for our field upkeep we may as well get some use out of it.
  19. I love the lady lions! Just wish they would find a leader on the floor. They got heart, just gotta work harder and play as team. Loss to gleason hurts, but I know the west's gonna get em going or die trying. Go lions!
  20. 3 days til christmas. All I want for christmas is a little more speed. Van dykle to work on his explosion, and the lineman to live in the weight room.
  21. I agree! Playoff system needs a few changes. Forget the travel $ worries, give teams that play up a break. I would love to see Dresden against South Pittsburg. I enjoy seeing well coached football teams. We don't have many teams that fear us, but from the little success we have had the last two years, we had two teams dodge us. Couldn't imagine how bad it would be if we were SP or Mckenzie.
  22. i pick lake co. sleeper is team i cant stand...gleason. good qb, young speed. depends on if their line works during offseason. they were physical in the dresden game which if they can build on it,.they can surprise people. uc and huntingdon always a possible pick because of great line coaches! 1a always depends on depth. The healthiest teams at the end of the year seem to step up and there is always a few that are good early that fall apart. Injury, basketball, or desire. Still can't figure out how bruceton beat UC. Or how SF beat Lake early and then couldn't beat a Trenton. Things that make you go "hmm"
  23. All you lineman better find a way to lift the next two weeks. losers make excuses. The hodgi said 150 hills if you don't make your lifts. Saying you lifted at home ain't gonna cut it. Don't be part of the "forever JV team". Merry Christmas, Lions and supporters! Season is right around the corner!
