Some of the ones being interviewed would surprise you. I guarantee it. Do you want to bet me? I am Captain Guru and I approve this message.

The Commander is unsurprisable.  That's why he's The Commander.   He's been around long enough that nothing surprises him anymore.

Hmmmmmm…. Doe Dee doe doe.  I would rather go play them other pirates than go down there in Alabama and play in that sewage line.  You can bet the lawnmower on that.  

Jimboh,  I never cared for Aladambama.

Things are pretty unknown, they’re not doing well about informing anyone on anything, per usual….

A lot of things need to be held close to the vest.

Maybe that Stone man can get those faux Pirates over at Boydie back on the schedule.

I wouldn't mind going back to the swamp someday.

Got any Thursday home games scheduled?

No

Ok.  Mostly.

I believe those Thursday games had more to do with the referee shortage

I agree the shortage of referees has led to more Thursday games but the last week of the regular season saw roughly 68 public school games on Thursday.  81 on Friday.

https://tssaasports.com/sports/scoreboard/?sport=football&week=11

Looks like the games played Thursday were heavily 1-3-5A.   Mostly.  But, I didn't go thru with a fine toothed comb.

Traditionally playoffs start in November so I did not know if 1st round would be on 11/1 or 11/8. I do know that any classification can play on thursday or friday in the regular season so I don't know why you have the days set up like its the bluecross games.

Last year if I remember correctly,  the last week of the regular season 1A / 3A / 5A played Thursday games while 2/4/6A played Friday.  Maybe it helps the brain trust at the TSSAA to split the games so they can get a better handle on who makes the playoffs. 

Is this correct?  

I didn't expect this.

Was this foreseen?

What happened?

I'm thinking D.A. thought they had an opening then they didn't.  

We are needing a 10th game.

It has now been posted on the TSSAA website.   "Bulletin Board" heading.

I think TSSAA has the wrong open dates for us.  (9/20, 10/11)

We need 9/27 or 10/11.

Hopefully we find something. 

Hang on boys.

I believe we are back to needing a 10th game.  Let's see what shakes out.  

CaptainLongBeard wants the '85 bears. 

Maybe we can get the winner of the Super Bowl.   

Hang on.

You ain't fooling ST twice. He paid his money at the gate this time to watch the game. He's not going to let them cut the feed on him tonight.

Got my money's worth tonight.

I don't know the rules and regulations that NFHS has on broadcasting. You would think they would want the whole game shown. The broadcasters could have run out of tape, time, space, had technical difficulties, or just didn't want to show their team getting beat. If it was any of the first, well, sometimes that's the breaks and there's really nothing to do. But if it was the last then that's just poor judgement, poor sportsmanship, poor broadcasting and a lack of integrity. I know that if we pulled the plug intentionally, it wouldn't go over well with the station owner and it wouldn't look good to fans - home or visiting. I don't like losing, but if you sign up to do something, then you have to take the bad with the 

I'm not really sure what transpired,  but both of the streamed events, that Sale Creek published & are on the NFHS network for Feb 1 involving our games ends without the conclusion of both.   

The Jr Varsity boys event is 1 hour 30 minutes plus.  Ends before the 4th period begins.

The Varsity boys event is 3 hours 3 minutes plus and ends with 27.8 seconds left.

Bear in mind there is more than 1 game on each event.  

Thought it strange.
