Dearest Mother-

 
   By the time you receive this letter, the second volley of these campaigns will be upon us. Your youngest son, who is of sound mind and strong body, swam from Battle Creek to the train depot of Battery Hill to retrieve your care package of possum cakes and squirrel butter.  The boys were so delighted to have these provisions bestowed upon them and were completely beside themselves when they saw you also included your most sought after bluebird muffins. Needless to say, nary a crumb was wasted.  You'll be pleased to know the Captain and his Band of Pirates were more than adept to exorcise the demons of Jo Devil and sent them scurrying back to Cedar Hill from whence they came.  Never to be seen or heard from for quite a spell.  Captain Victory wasn't in any celebratory mood I must say after the conquest.  He quickly turned his attention to the next challenge at hand, that being the rabid Bulldogs from the Celina territory.  They are led by the head Bulldog himself, Bulldog Johnson, a direct descendant of Lyndon Baines. But don't you fret Sweet Mother of mine, for Captain Victory has seen these Bulldogs before. Captain Victory and his Band of Pirates will have them lying down, rolling over and begging for a bone before the clock strikes 9. Tell Poppa just a few more weeks and I'll be back on the farm. Tell him just a little while longer.  I must close, as I hear a chilling war cry coming from the northeast.  It hails from the Tribe of Many Nations.  So called since they have assembled from just about every tribe known to man.  But we will soon focus on the nomads as that day is fast approaching.  Love to All-

Good stuff.

I'd love to have a copy of the historical record for my treasure chest. 

When I get around to finally finding those last couple of seasons that I am missing I will let it out for everyone to have. Luckily I do have the records at least from the missing seasons, just not the scores.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
