I just don't see that happening though, as the loss of two home games will take it's toll on the finances. And home playoff games will be harder to come by with a league affiliation, as you are locked into a set number of points even if you win every league games.

How do other teams financially manage to be able to play 5 and 5 every year? :huh:

Big Red not just survives, but thrives financially, there is a difference (see Massillon).

Big Red has some of the very best facilities and staffs in the country. No matter what Big Red wants, Big Red gets. Not all of the money comes from football, of course, but the football revenue does help.

The 2010 schedule is filled and Inkster MI. is our first game.
Reno will post the schedule at the field house soon.

Cheers.

Is that the game that Wintersville won but Reno ran on to the field crying to the refs and they reversed their call giving the victory to Big red. Yea, I remember that game too.

I guess legends grow as time moves on. I have the game tape somewhere of that contest, and I don't remember Reno running onto the field crying to the refs. The play was in the west endzone..more towards the south corner. After the forward lateral, the refs huddled and made the right call. The whole thing took maybe 10 seconds. I remember a few Big Red players like Del Vinson being next to the refs huddle while they conferenced, and they were making their point.

Also, contrary to popular belief, this was not a playoff game, it was week 7 of the regular season. The playoff game was in 1985.

Thats the joy of freedom of speech and NOT being a Big Red fan... We can find a wound and rub dirt right in it for ya

Besides, what "holy power" says that I can't say what I feel because of open enrollment? Sorry that my pride kept me out of Big Red... Couldn't pay me enough to have attended there, I'm not a ship jumper.

Are you going to start that open enrollment again? Creek has the same open enrollment policy as Big Red, as do Buckeye, Toronto, and Edison. Why doesn't Creek draw players from Big Red? I'll tell you why. Big Red's program is one of the best in the state and Creek's program isn't worth a hill of beans. You need to actually beat somebody before you criticize us.

What rule says we have to beat anyone before I can voice an opinion? I'll tell you what, give our players back, edisons back, weirs back, and the rest of the valleys back and then I will quit talking. Beat someone with your OWN players and then you can say whatever you want. Why so defensive?? You have everything you want and you are a so called "Top Program" so why not just ignore my posts and live happy? My comments shouldn't be "worth a hill of beans" right?

OK, I'll post it as soon as I find out for sure. I talked with a player today who said we also have Brooke, and a strong Catholic School from the Washington D.C. area. The Brooke game may be in the fourth spot. You probably know we signed a home and home with the Morgantown Mowhawks. I heard the complete schedule but will wait and confirm it later.

Cheers
