  1. You know i want the Rams to win, but the word of the day for this Friday evening is going to be "ouch!" It's gonna hurt.
  2. I'm going with the Golden Domes in this Pope vs the Kentuckians in the Corbin Pigskin Classic. Why is this game being played on a Saturday night and so late. Is it a 8:45 kickoff? Is this going to be aired on the ESPN Ocho?
  3. This should be a great game. Two communities who come out and wholeheartedly back their teams. I'm going with Meigs in a close one...Wait never count out a team that's hurt and mad and wanted vindication, maybe the Kees? No staying with the Tigers.
  4. To all GCA fans or anyone attending the game without affiliation, a request has been made by GCA that all attendees wear black and gold colors (Stone Memorials colors) in rememberance of one of their football players who died in an ATV wreck. Keep the family, the team and the whole school in your thoughts and prayers.
  5. Gametime is 7:30 EST or 6:30 CST at Stone Memorial High School and will be streamed on Diamond Clear media
  6. He did but had another shoulder surgery from baseball and was medically redshirted. He's playing football at Maryville College after he transferred. We will be down in Boogerville Saturday watching them scrimmage Birmingham Southern at Chattanooga Baylor.
  7. I still keep up with them and will go to all home games and as many away as I can. I am more concentrated on watching mine playing on Saturdays and his team now, but when that's over then I'll focus more on HS ball. Gotta love the Friday night lights
  8. I think this years' team will stack up fine on the defensive side of the ball. The offensive side looks good but is young in spots. The QB this year is no joke. Smart, talented and carries good size. The key I think this year is to swarm to the ball on defense, be 2 dimensional on offense and stay healthy. Attrition has and will play an important role this season. GCA is a good, young team. They have some stud young players who will contribute when their names are called. Give them time and don't count them out.
  9. Barney, they have of course had some "scrimmages" (passing only) but I haven't heard of full contact scrimmage yet. I will post it if I find out
  10. Pulling for Booger big time! Hey Chainsaw2, beat ya to the punch
  11. I will not speculate on CRB. I will support him as I supported McKamey. Just like our president, you can like him or hate him, but he's still OUR POTUS. Same as a coach, not going to say I applaud every play call, but until he decides to move on, he's our coach and I will support him. IMO, (this is not aimed at GCA, but Div2 football as a whole),I think that a problem with being in TSSAA Div2 is that there sometimes is a lack of ownership in the program and a lack of pride in the program for kids who come sliding into Div2 programs from D1 or other D2 schools. There a lifers or long time players who only want to play for their school, always have and always will. With that being said, there are also players who see good things and jump here and there to try to get the best team or playing time and they don't have the investment and ownership in a program that lifers do. I have seen this cycle play out for years. Like it or not, teams like Greenback that we played have kids from K-5 on who's only desire is to someday wear the orange and black and play for their HS and nowhere else. That is what I feel is lacking in ALL D2 football to some extent. I played for a bad 5A school in my day, but I didn't want to play anywhere else, it was MY team. This is not a "jab" at GCA or any school, my son graduated and this doesn't affect me or my son in any way. I just see this as a cycle and a fundamental problem for D2 that will continue. My opinion only.
  12. GCA baseball:2015 Div I Class A State Champs baby!!
  13. Wouldn't have changed anything. IF they got to the World Series, they'd just get them ripped out by the Red Sox! Go Sox
  14. Lucky for me, I've never been accused of thinking too much or coherently. What am I doing? Where am I at? I don't remember eating that! So on and so forth
  15. Yeah I agree. Gotta start hitting the gym and get these pythons hard again.
