    Increase in prices for State playoffs

    The question is, how many of those 50/60 would have shown up if they had to pay? If none of them would have come, then you really didn't loose anything except for having an extra 50/60 pulling for the visiting team. The driver's license idea seems good, except for the fact that someone would...

    Increase in prices for State playoffs

    First of all, I do not attend any games anymore, so I have no dog in the fight. But I do have a couple of semi objective opinions. First, I doubt there is much money involved in this senior program. Many of the people who use it probably wouldn't attend if they had to pay, so not much revenue...

    The Belichik Era

    It's the job of the coaches to create a winning team. They probably have a better chance with players, than without.

    Dutch Fork 2025

    In the video at about 8 minutes they mentioned that Paino started HS at Independence and transferred to Butler. So you're both right. But in this game he did play for Butler.

    Dutch Fork 2025

    I found another 2004 game on YouTube that some people may be interested in. Title "Independence vs Butler 2004", poster "James Paino IV". The video was not very good, but you could easily tell what was going on. For some reason the video didn't include much of the 4th quarter It was...

    Dutch Fork 2025

    I found the Independence-Southview 2004 State Championship game at Chapel Hill this morning on YouTube. The title was "Independence HS 2004 State Championship", "Dave R" was the poster, and it showed it was "6 Years Old". The first 15 minutes showed some player introductions and some...

    Dutch Fork 2025

    2004 had a O-Line that averaged 300 pounds, including a center that was only 220 pounds. Last time I checked they still had their 2004 games with South View and Richmond County on YouTube.

    Bill requiring cash ticket option to enter

    They can allow whatever form of payment they want, the point is cash should be one of the options.

    West Charlotte vs Independence!!!

    I can't prove it, of course, but in my opinion the biggest difference between Hough and Grimsley was the game location. Grimsley doesn't ride buses during the playoffs, and the one time they did during the last 3 years, or so, was a trip to Weddington, and they lost.

    West Charlotte vs Independence!!!

    This whole thing is like an "honor system". It's like a football game with no refs. In a game without refs, if one team precisely follows all the rules and the other team does not, chances are the team following all the rules will loose. Another analogy is it's like speeding on 485. Your...

    It's a little slow on here right now, so you might have time to watch some video on Kaden Craft. I'm sorry I can't furnish a clickable link, but if you'll put the following address in your browser the video should come up. hudl.com/profile/10089496/kaden-craft In the first half of the 9th...

    LN Freshman QB Craft Offered by UNC

    According to this site UNC offered on 1/19/25, Virginia Tech offered on 1/22/25, and Duke offered on 2/1/25. I have a feeling that list is going to grow a lot. I google searched a little bit and found the photo with Belichick. From that picture it looks like he's going to be a full grown man...

    Family of Grimsley QB Faizon Brandon sues State over NIL Restrictions

    Obviously people have different opinions on this matter, but the idea of a high school football player bankrolling his teammates doesn't seem right to me. I won't offer an opinion on College or Pros. The question was asked earlier, "how does it hurt". I think putting a high school player in...
