How much $ and effort does it take to do a site like that? I'm from Patrick Henry and a fan started one but its very bare bones and limited. I would love to do a fan site as well as a photography site.

I'm lucky because my brother sets everything up for me, he lives in Seattle the computer capital of the world. I could check with him, but there are some really nice free web site providers out there.

I said less than a touchdown...what is your problem...I can do the math...sorry and I always believe our kids will win...All I hear is that Genoa fan doesn't show respect and we are the worst...your post proves my point.

Thanks for the kind words guys....

These kids are so fun to follow. Always love hearing prayer after our games (win or lose) and how coaches preach perspective.

I hope it sinks in to our kids how CLOSE they are to a real special achievement.

So....not to be a sore winner but this is two years in a row now that after beating Genoa they take like 3/4 of the field to mourn and we are stuck down in the end zone. I think maybe a little lesson here would be to respect the team that prevailed and give us a little space to celebrate with our fans? I mean the police were lined up on the 20 yard line and wouldn't let us go past that point, and over near midfield along the fence are a lot of our fans wanting to see their Riders. Genoa players would not move? Maybe a little birdie could drop a note the AD and pass that along.

Last time I checked, it doesn't matter the score of the game as long as you have more points than the other team....

So I will take the win anyway!

They have to make a production out of it instead of going to the lockerroom and doing it there.

Yea...picking nit I guess...but come on guys....take your mope fest to the locker room. I have no problem with kids being disappointed, but take it off the field. Makes me wonder what kind of lessons are being taught "beneath the candlelight." How about lessons of respect and that part of life is dealing with disappointment. Is that taught? Or is it just win, win, win, win, win (and be arrogant in doing so)....and the kids are totally unprepared to deal with a loss.

We don't like to lose either, but when we do we gather out of way and console our players and they console each other, realizing there is another team there that is very proud of their accomplishments and deserve to move about a bit. Its getting ridiculous really. did you see us all over midfield and beyond last year after losing to OG? No. Were our kids upset and crying? You bet they were. Life lesson.
