I have read the many posts on here and find a lot of them funny and entertaining. I do not have the ability to be witty with my writing so if you will allow a serious post i will state my opinion of the upcoming battle. While i have not seen E.H. in person i have seen them on film and agree with their faithful fans that they are well coached and have the speed and size to be state champs at some point in their future. I am not qualified to predict the out come with statistics nor do i put a lot of faith in those stats. Football games at the playoff levels are won by the amount and quality of character , intelligence , heart and amount of desire of the individuals combined with their athleticism and knowledge of the game. The Giles County Bobcats 2012 football team has the best of all those necessary qualities. Never have i seen a group of young athletes as focused and prepared for any challenge they face enroute to the grand prize ,The Gold Ball. The coaching staff of Giles county is arguably the best group in the country. They teach and prepare with as much passion and professionalism as any college program. The young men they teach are being prepared as much for lifes battles as they are for gridiron battles. My son is on the team and i have enormous pride and admiration for his accomplishments on and off the field , and I give much of the credit for his character to his entire coaching staff. This team is as prepared and capable of winning as any E.H. has met or will meet for many years to come . While they have many individual weapons at various positions, football is not an individual sport . Every player is equally important,even the freshmen on scout teams are critical to their success. The great thing about this team is that they realize this and are more concerned with team success than individual accolades.That makes them very dangerous as a team. I am looking forward to tomorrow nites battle as much as any ive seen yet and i hope after the game a mutual respect will emerge and competitive rivalry will begin. I obviously am putting faith in our players and coaches and believe we will win and pray that no injuries occur for either team.

Great win.. hats off to a good group of athletes at Notre Dame

Great job Bobcats. Hats off to the Irish. Well fought game
