Yep but David did win and became King. In all seriousness, I know NC is a huge underdog. That does not mean our kids and coaches will not show up expecting to compete. If we can somehow find a way to keep it close and give ourselves a chance at the end I will be happy.

I have not seen anything about the kid that was taken off on the stretcher. It looked like they put an air cast on his leg. Hopefully, nothing to prevent a full recovery.

Crosby has Manvel in week 0 in 2017.

Crosby is not a one man team. I have seen both PAM and Crosby play. PAM might edge them in overall athletes but Netherly would be the best one on the field. If they played each other and both teams were healthy, I would take Crosby with a slight coaching edge in a reallt tight game.

Thank You! And to answer the other question about NC winning with Dunn. No we lost all three years he took the team to the playoffs. Once to WOS and twice to Jacksonville. Jacksonville had a pretty good QB at that time. He went on to play over 10 years in the NFL. As far as tonight goes. I thought we were a little timid with some play calling. We had 4 turnovers that hurt and another snap over the punters head giving the ball at the 5. Central made a coupe big plays and had some really good athletes on the field. That catch on the fake FG was one of two outstanding catches, he D was in position but the Central kid made a great play.

14-0 3:38 first

TD PAM 7-0 9:55 first

Hope it'e not too serious. Prayers are with him.

I really don't think that will be the case. Although their are rumors of a third high school being planned.

I will say it made a difference. I did not see the BH game but during the NC game NC doubled Carney and the sophomore they had in his place caught a few balls but were minimal gains. Yes the game would have been closer if NC was not able to double Carney.

This should be fun to follow!

Are you meaning a sweep? No way will I take that. I will still meet for a meal though if you want.

I will be there in NC blue supporting our district. You are confirmed on the home side?

Rob, I'll take the wager on New Caney vs Central. How about for a nice meal?

We will just have to disagree. I have not gone back and watched it on film, but when I watched it live I thought it was a good call. As for the middle blitz it was obvious. Every time NC was in that set that #30 was coming up the middle. I saw some adjustments with the route the slot receiver was running in the second half to fill in behind the blitz. The safety did a good job tackling him but he was open on that quick slant.

Sounds like you're kind of hung up on the refs. Both teams had calls that hurt them. The refs were not a deciding factor in that game. The players committing the infractions are the ones that put their teams in jeopardy. The Oline has held up enough for Cooper to have a pretty good year passing.

I know what happened, I'm just not sure of what the required penalty for it is. I will not post it though. And you very well may be right about being done for the year.

Curious why you would like to see Central win. I thought you were a Dayton supporter, I was there last year supporting the Broncos against PNG. I try and support my district as much as possible.

Porter has more than one. Carney is the top receiver and will be playing at next level but if Spencer is back from the trouble he got into then that changes the dynamics. Spencer is 6"3 and can leap. He already has offers in basketball. Porter has gone 1-2 without him.

Who will sit on the visitors side? Home stands should be large enough but visitors stands are not real big.

I do not think these are completely accurate. I know Crosby punted more than 1 time. I was talking to my brother in law about the fact we should have tried to fair catch the ball a couple of times. We gave up quite a bit of field position at least twice on punts that rolled an additional 15 yards or more.

I will get to see this one now that NC confirmed for Saturday. Crosby on Thursday, Porter on Friday and NC on Saturday. Should be a fun week!
