I love having a QB who can handle the punting duties. It opens up a lot of gadget plays offensively and keeps the defense honest. By the way, the scoreboard looks pretty cool.

I would think that the fumbles would get better through the year considering that there is a sophomore in the backfield and a first time quarterback handing off. I haven't seen any of the scrimmages, so I don't know if this is where the drops are occuring at though. Also, what kind of range does Carranco have? I will miss the old school kicking style from last year...but not the missed extra points.

I'm going dayton by thirteen with the next carranco in line chipping in at least two field goals. Also, does anyone have any info on this years bay city team? I know that their head coach is in his second year, but beyond that I know absolutely nothing about them.

The first game of the season is right around the corner. What can we expect from Bay City? What will the broncos take away from their scrimmages and implement during their first game? Predictions...Comments....Etc?

Sounds like jackthehampster is a little jealous of Dayton's success...I hope that works out for him.

I wouldn't say that the broncos are average since they are heavily favored to win their district this year. Yes they lost an all american and a nationally ranked recruit, but Dayton will reload and compete as always. Over a decade of consecutive playoff appearances should tell you as much. The kids and coaches work hard and start every year with the goal of winning the district (whatever district that may be) and let the chips fall where they may.

You do make a good case for response without reason.

T-talk, what would make you think that I was directing my inquiry toward you? Could it be that I'm just curious about the features of this message board and that it is mere coincidence that my reply happened to be placed below yours? To respond to your comment about haters, I really haven't seen anyone from lumberton on this message board making negative comments about their own team. Maybe you're reading something I'm not.

Is there an ignore feature on this site that allows you to not view posts by a selected user?

I'm still not sure how to set it up... I was thinking of something that would look like this, but for all the games... WEST BROOK @ OZEN - WB 68% OZ 32% MEMORIAL @ CENTRAL - MEM 25% CEN 75% ETC... Anyway, I guess I don't want the poll bad enough to spend the time and effort required to actually put it together, but I would really enjoy voting on it and seeing the results. Maybe someone else will take this on as a rainy day project.

Is there a way to make one poll for picking a winner in each game scheduled for the week? It would be a cool feature for the site. I'm not sure how to set it up, but maybe someone with a little more poll savvy could handle it. Comments?

domination station...not much to say other than the hubris didn't really pay off...and no, i don't like the baby blues in the endzone, it kind of clashes against the majestic purple backdrop.

thanks for the update.

What is your schools wildest rivalry game of the year and why? Memories/pranks/shenanigans from rivalries past? At Dayton it would have to be Crosby as of late. However, I do remember sneaking across the river with some cohorts and lighting up liberty's bonfire the night before their homecoming festivities were scheduled.

The bronco kid may look away, but it's only because he feels guilty for taking the Friendswood kid's girlfriend...

Word...I will say this, the one thing that I feel like Dayton is missing is the rivalry that you guys have in the golden triangle. Sure, we don't like Crosby. And Barbers Hill will be a good one as their program evolves, but beyond that, there aren't a whole lot of must see games until the playoffs. Part of this is due in part to the way dayton gets bumped around every time realignment occurs. Not really sure how to explain it...

Come on old timer, I know that purple isn't the most masculine color but at the least we can claim that it's regal. On the other hand, there aren't many excuses to be made for those baby blues you guys trot out.

In my opinion, the lumberton team will probably walk (or limp) away from the scrimmage with a very long list of things they need to work on if they want to compete with a quality team. Dayton will probably come away with a few things they need to tweak, especially on the offensive side of the ball. All in all, it should be a good confidence builder for the broncos and a chance for lumberton to take some lumps as they get ready for the season. On an unrelated note, is lumberton still wearing those cute baby blue uniforms and do they sell men's clothes at the store they bought them from?

Good job baberuth, much appreciated. Ice down your fingers and make your way to the trainers table. Overall impressions anyone?

It's gut check time baberuth. You have to dig in deep and push to the finish. This is where champions are born. The question you have to ask yourself is if you are willing to make the necessary sacrifices to be the best message board poster you can be.

How are Stewarts vocal chords holding up? Can you hear him loud and clear on the WOS side?

Recap? Overall impressions? Strengths and weaknesses? I could go for an admin halftime show while I catch up on some work.

Working nights and keeping up with the broncos courtesy of baberuth. If our paths ever cross I will be more than glad to pony up a little cash and buy you a frito pie or jumbo pickle...your choice. I appreciate the updates.

I was wondering what the dayton QB looked like and how the new receiver looks. Also, is dayton running a spread or more jumbo sets?

I appreciate the updates WOS GRAD. Keep them coming!
