LOL, DB better not lose this friday or Mr Crazy's head will explode /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

 

If DB loses Friday night (JC a good team/bad team it doesn't matter) there will be a bigger explosion than Mr Crazy's head. And we are not talking the big E. There was a very strong undertow last year after an early exit. Several more loses and it could turn into a category V. The pressure is on DB, and the coaches and players feel it. JC needs to take advantage of it early. GC has not gone to his Bowden playbook and will keep things conservative. I have said from the beginning this team is not strong enough to overcome mistakes. A failed Bowden play and GC really looks bad. I agree with an earlier post of DB needing a go to player that can dominate when needed. Over the years DB has certainly run into their fair share of those on other teams, especially in the playoffs.

You're saying that the "show boating" is what has changed? "The Walk", AKA "The War Whoop" has been around for a long time. It appears to me that the "show boating" as you put it was in response to teams like Oak Ridge who put a lot of energy into intimidation. Of course, except for last year, OR usually back the intimidation up on the field play. Ya'll need to make up your minds. You complain about no energy in the stands but you want to shut it down pre-game on the field. /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" The crowd just resonds to positive action on the field and before potential big plays. Parents yell at every play for little Johnny.

 

I'll take DB by 10.... since GC missed band practice Saturday. He must have been watching film and working on more changes.

 

I'm not alone on keeping traditions such as the walk, but the indivivual players breaking line to run out in front of the rest of the players IS NOT a tradition. The "look at me" tradition just started the past several years. Both starters and non starters are now doing it. At some point when all 100 are doing it they will have to start at the other end of the field to have enough time. I can see it now, players changing the way they run through the "T". Maybe a dance? Perhaps Chief Osceola needs to ride in on a motorcycle. Dont start on the energy in the stands, at least the football fans are staying for the entire game and not leaving after the halftime show.

I guess as parents we all have to look at the pros and cons if we hold our kids back or send them early.I don't know if Chris was just held back and his age fell good on top of that or what. The fact is,he 's a fine athlete even if he was in the 10th or 11th grade as some kids will be at his age. The good is all the extra years to get stronger and maybe mature a little.The bad is very few kids will make money in sports for many reasons, and while the kids your age are finishing school and making money, your just starting. I've seen to many kids not make it because of injuries.We preach grades first and second, football third and career ending girls fourth.

 

I'm not sure of the obsession with this kid being held back or whatever. I'm not sure of the reasons why but it happens to kids that don't play football...are we going to discuss them as well? I'm confused about the comment of kids his age already being out of school and making money while he is still in high school. Please...he'll still do his 4 years in high school just like all the others. I'm sure coaches will focus on his grades or he won't play...if they'll sit Lamon Williams down they'll sit any kid down...but I also know this staff has worked tirelessly to get kids opportunities to study (and play) at the next level. Can we just drop the issue that he is a Freshman and should be a Soph or Jr...I'm sure he's not the only student in that situation today or for many years past. He is a kid after all.

Jeff Co freshman was hoping to play against Chris next week. They are disappointed. It was two great games last year in the middle schools. I always say that to be the best you got to play against the best.

[maroonandgrey]

Yeah I couldn't agree with you more. It's REALLY hard being the best player on the Frosh team when your 16 playing againist 14 year olds wow thats a tough challenge.

 

I honestly doubt at 21 you would be the best player on the DB freshman team. As I have stated before...Eric Ainge is 2 years older than Tim Tebow...how did that pan out? Just because a player is older doens't make them better...you still have to play

[WaCoJaCo]

Chris will never be able to "dominate" a game he fakes an injury every other play,once somebody rocks him one or two good times he just gives up. Look at film from every game he has played in since 7th grade he quits after the first hit he takes.

 

 

I don't have to see a game film, i've seen him live on the field several times. He has "dominated" every game I have seen him play. I have only been to one freshman game this year and he was all over the field on both sides of the ball. He took some big hits and delivered some big hits. He neve quit. You are obviously jellious of him for some reason. I say he probably is dating your ex-girlfriend. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

I guess the big deal is that he is a fine athlete and as you have read,he is more of a junior than a freshman.It depends on what side of the fence your looking from as to how you take this move.If it makes a difference when and if we start in the playoffs against maybe a team we have allready played,it was a great move I think.If your a senior that had to wait his turn and you loose playing time to Chris,plus the move doesn't make a difference because of the problems we have had to this point ?We were not supposed to win the last three.With or without Chris,we are supposed to win most of the remaining games.This move may help in the place that I've been talking about,and thats depth.I do think we can use a lot more kids on special teams and we allready had some kids that could play more on the defence and offense.

 

 

 

I know first hand that he is a fine athlete, I have watched him play freshman, with that said I also saw him look average against souths frosh, except four big runs which one was called back because of a block in the back. Also he has got hurt in almost every game, so I guess what I am getting at is how is he going to help the varsity. I hope he does great, he is a good kid very polite. The only knock I would have against him is how much he showboats, it only makes the other team play harder.

 

I do believe the boys will get better it may take a little more time, but the more they play the better.

 

Good luck Indians and Pats! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Everybody needs to chill. Clark is bringing Sensabaugh to varsity to add depth to the runningback position. We had a couple of running backs quit the team before the season. Something the coaching staff could of prevented but didn't. Now their short. Hogg & Sylvester playing both ways is becoming a problem as their going to have to run more because they have no passing game. If one of these guys gets hurt in a game theres no one to fill in. Its a good move and a no-brainer. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Is Sensabaugh the big RB that was in middle school last year and played against Jefferson Middle school of Jefferson county on DB's field?

He has allways been a good polite kid. I don't know when he started acting the way he did at the south game.That's something that he needs to stop doing. The one South kid tried to take his head off later in the game, I think you can bring stuff in your dirrection that you don't need. Act like you have been there before.

Hey! Did you people know its DB vs. Jefferson Co. Friday night? /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />

 

This year will mark the first year of JC'S comeback, so DB will have to be ready to play. This is not the same Jeff Co. team we have seen the past three years. They have their ship righted and will be a force in the Big East from here on out. You people better get your heads screwed on right.

 

It ain't about Chris Sensabaugh.

If he gets hurt every game he's not gonna last long Friday night. Jeff Co defense will flat out knock your socks off. East got 2 hurt last week. One with a concussion, one with a ACL. I'm not wanting anyone to get hurt, just stating the facts.
