Alum (and anyone else) I am not trying to start #%@$ but PLEASE explain how the coach "throw the DB's under the bus"? How does he not have "their back"? Isn't this the truth? AGAIN...like I have ALWAYS said it comes down to players making plays. I know in my "real world" if I don't get the job done, my boss is going to let me know. He isn't going to rub my back and say "good effort, that's ok...you'll get em next time" and give me a token for a free ice cream cone. He said the DB's were right there and all they have to do is make the play, which is absolutely true for those of us at the game.

I see coaches in the paper say those types of things ALL THE TIME after a loss. Why does Z get singled out ALL THE TIME???? If saying things like this is considered by many as "throwing under the bus", then I hate to say it but....well, forget it...I get in trouble for speaking the truth....




Last night was a disappointing TEAM loss. There should be no finger pointing at one individual, fingers should be pointed at the TEAM.
Last night as a TEAM we did not get the job done!

Those are your quotes from post 359, me personally I would of went with that approach.


And if you are no a politician you missed your calling! as they say what sounds good at the moment an always trying to cover their #$@.

"I'm really disappointed in our offense," Northwestern coach Mike Thut said. "(Hillsdale) dared us to run the ball and we still couldn't run it. I got on my line at halftime about getting more nasty up front. And as far as executing our passing game, the passes weren't as accurate as they've been and our receivers had a lot of drops tonight."
"You've gotta make plays; this is Ohio football and we know (the weather) is coming," Thut said. "When you've got a pass game, you have to make adjustments and you have to catch the football. We didn't do a good job of that tonight."

Listen I am not covering my #@% for anything. I apologized because maybe my tact isn't the most politically correct and I can do a better job of conveying my thoughts. However, I stand by each and every word I have said on here and if you REALLY look at when the dust settles on this forum...most of the time it comes down to a couple of things...which I am more or less SPOT ON. I just have a difficult time getting that point across in a peaceful manner and I can admit to that....plain and simple.

Dalton @ Chippewa
Hillsdale @ Rittman
Northwestern @ Waynedale
Smithville @ Norwayne

Interesting games this week: Hillsdale gets a W, I like to think Bears jump on Huskies but the other two games are intriguing. I havent got Dalton figured out. Smithville/Norwhat is an interesting matchup also with Miller running wild and Dreher/Zollinger playing well.

Most programs will love to have the parents, booster, community build them something like this or waclfan did you do this all on your own? damn you are a great guy.

The 4-2 Bulldogs now get their chance to upend 6-0 Chipewa. Will they do it?...probably not, but stranger things have happened and this is a strange year. This is the game of the week, IMO.


The battle of the 4-2 teams should be fun. I guess I'll go with Norwayne at home, but the Smithies have improved vastly from last year.


In the battle of 2-4 teams, I think Waynedale will roll to victory. Northwestern appears to be spiraling downward.


and finally, Hillsdale will travel to Rittman and take care of business.

Wow I know a lot of people that would beg to differ. If you are truly the voice of this program, this program is in worst shape then I thought.

Okay, rip me for telling you what you said!

Also the popcorn was great Friday at the game and the lady that severed me was very nice(just seeing if you will argue with me about that)
