Things will pick up again next week when we have Rally in Death Valley.

Good luck to all the region 11 teams this week.

Personally I would like all 10, unless it is a nice stadium, such as the venues for this year.

Having said that, let me also say that it is not my intent to antagonize him. I have respected his request that we not repeat what he tells us in boosters club meetings. I don't want to do anything to hurt the team.
I think the Big Red posters were just talked out over the Brooke game. I personally don't have much to say about the St. John game. That's why I haven't posted.

FairwoodKing;487141 wrote:There's no memo. It's what he said at the boosters club meeting last week. He came down very hard on me personally. That was two weeks in a row that he yelled at me. That's why I didn't attend this week's meeting. At any rate, he doesn't like for people to post things about the team on blogs. I backed off but a lot of people didn't. There was a lot posted last week about the Brooke game. He was particularly pissed that so many people were predicting a blowout. Then when I told him I predicted a close, tight game, he nearly took my head off.
I didn't post much of anything this week because I really didn't have anything to say. I think that is the way most of the posters feel. We know St. John's will be a tough game, but we don't know what to say about it.

Hard to believe he has that much influence on the fans.
I guess I don't see how a blog prediction has any bearing on the team.
It's just a whole different culture over there.Darkon;487147 wrote:All I can say is WOW.

I like your posts and I mean no disrespect to you, but do you feel this gives him the right to chew your ass in a more-or-less public venue like a booster club meeting?FairwoodKing;487168 wrote:The players read these blogs. Reno didn't want them to read that the Brooke game would be an easy blowout. He wanted the players to stay focused and to be prepared for a tough game.
Reilly Stadium is one of the finer venues around, not to mention its historical significance as hosting the first night football ever played in Ohio.ManO'War;487154 wrote:I've been to Salem's stadium....there's a reason they can't get more home games.
BTW, Big Red didn't need any home field advantage to pound Salem last year in the playoffs.
Allowing 28 unanswered points isn't letting "it slip away", it's a second half beating!QuakerOats;487230 wrote:Reilly Stadium is one of the finer venues around, not to mention its historical significance as hosting the first night football ever played in Ohio.
And as I recall we led at halftime, 10-6; too bad we let it slip away ..................... not this year though.
