    High school football scores

    I caught the last 8-10 minutes online, Brandon was up 44-7 and had 3rd string in who looked like the Keystone Cops, so it wasn't as close as the score. Pretty funny, Josh Morgan, the WC coach, put his first team defense back in when Brandon was trying to run out the clock in last 2 minutes and...

    Soccerpost: Van Persie to Man United...

    I'm a big Arsenal fan so this sounds like sour grapes, but no lie, I was conflicted about them even trying to re-sign him. He's 29 and had tons of injuries before last year - and they were going to be forced to pay him crazy money to stay. I think he could have a great year this year, but...

    2012 New Uni Tweek

    Good work ChillBilly! I agree with your thoughts on the uniforms and the poor unveiling by Adidas. I like the new unis for the most part. However, Adidas, as you say, is always just a bit off design-wise, compared to Nike. I'm a big soccer fan and that's where I first noticed the difference...

    Soccerpost: Rangers unlikely to be in Scottish Premier League for 2012-13 season... I hate it for those guys because Rangers seemed to be a pretty good "fit" for some American players and they had the opportunity to play Champions League or Europa Cup every year. This whole fiasco is...

    Buy or Sell: We've sh*t the bed now...

    Oh crap. The Indian burial mound has been disturbed... Get ready for more wind-deflected FG's, star RB's tripping over 1st down chains and tearing ACL's and another Tech-and-10 season. I knew it couldn't last... http://www.msstate.edu/web/phototemplate.php?Id=3064

    Anybody got any insight on what is going on at USM?

    As far as I know, your General/AD has never appeared on a national ESPN game walking the sidelines wearing khaki shorts, one maroon tube sock, one white tube sock, with a paw print painted on his cheek talking about how he ruptured his Achilles running wind sprints with the football team... So...

    ***OT: Soccer Post*** Arsenal v Chelsea pictures inside

    Thanks for posting those - cool to see (as an Arsenal fan). Yeah, that wasn't the most exciting match - seemed like Chelsea was playing for the draw and Arsenal didn't have much in the way of chances. How did you get tickets? And if you don't mind me asking, how much did they cost? I'd like to...

    Looks like George Brooks will be retained

    Word on the street was that Stansbury hired Brooks a couple of years ago specifically to recruit Hood and Pollard full-time. Being from Meridian CC, he was "in" with all the high school, juco and AAU/summer coaches in that area. Supposedly, there's some more significant talent coming down that...

    Ray Harper gets my vote over Kenny Payne or any other potential assistant coach on our radar..

    Ray Harper gets my vote over Kenny Payne or any other potential assistant coach on our radar.. He's done well at the Div II level and coaches at Montevallo, a school not too far away and just played in the Div II national championship game last weekend. I'm being half-serious, but I would think...

    Soccer Post - North London derby

    Great comeback for the Gunners, indeed. That was huge after the real lack of momentum they've had in recent weeks (see "MSU basketball" for comparison). I turned it on at 1-0 Spurs. Then, shortly after, "Twinkle Toes" Bale takes a dive in the box for a PK to make it 2-0 and I was close to going...

    Hood and Locke going at it on twitter...

    Locke saying "Think, then Tweet..." sounds so dick-ish. Why is he responding to players he covers? It's not his place to give them advice of any kind. That's immature on his part, at best. Just STFU, Locke, and go shave your cheesy goatee... And I like that Hood said, "I'm not yo 'dude'..." ha!

    Rick & Bobby Cleveland Offered Buyouts From The Clarion Ledger

    I worked in state government/politics about 15 years ago in Jackson. Even then, it was tough to get coverage of some of the BS going on in the legislature or to "shine a light" on some of those idiots who were robbing the state for their own little fiefdoms. With all the cuts at the C-L, I can...

    One interesting thing about Schuessler ...

    Guys, remember, we're 2 years out of the Tyson Lee Experience... At least this guy looks like he can throw it more than 20 yards without a crow-hop and can see over the line of scrimmage. I'd say that's a couple of steps forward.
