I guess i should do the same on this thread.

I hate predictions so-:mad:

Katy-56:D

[Zacharary]

Like I said in another thread:

Katy - 16
SLC - 15

Double the Fun.

[ftballin11]

I'm going to stick to my same prediction as I said last week with Katy vs. SV.

I was dead on with my last prediction, so I'm going to use the same exact one for this game and try to be 2-2.
Katy and SLC will both score at least one time each. That is the only prediction I am going to give on this game.

[Redneckn]

Katy: 40>
SLC: <21

[dragonman88]

Like i said on the other post


SLC 35

Katy 24

[BengalFan]

It will come down to turnovers. If Katy plays protects the ball KT 24-17.

right it down...remember it...wide said it...so it shall be done.

[THEsouthlakeCARROLL]

The Southlake Carroll - 40

I will start by saying the team with most mistakes loses...:(

[BigWhiteJake]

with apologies for previous posts...

if katy cant crack the SLC offense then its...
38-20 SLC

if the katy coaches pull another fit of brilliance out then...

it will close with both teams around 20

[BAMF cowboy]

halftime:

14 - 14

final:

SLC 31 - 17 Katy

(halftime adjustments prove key again)

[ftballin11]

3-2 Katy wins on a walk off by Chris Lewis.

[BigWhiteJake]

lol, you can forget either of these offense being under 10 points

[ftballin11]

You actually think they will both get over 10??? This will be a defensive game with both teams being shut out through the 4th. SLC will come out of nowhere and jump out to a 2-0 lead and with the team looking down and out, Chris Lewis gets a walkoff to end the game.:D

[BigWhiteJake]

lol well perfect, lets bet 20 bucks on an over/under of 7pts, i got the over :o

[ftballin11]

No deal, I said 10, not 7.:p

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

[thecoach]

Simply because of the coaching and the heart of the players...

Katy- 28
SLC- 21

[drgnbndfan35]

and you think carroll wont have heart for this one? a chance to avenge the one loss in 5A is the ultimate opportunity for this incredible team. katy, as always, is extremely good. so is SLC. i agree that the O's will go over 10 points, but it wont be a blow out by either team. decided by less than 10 points, definitely, with SLC coming out on top because of the incredible half time adjustments they make. katy will have a great game, but not good enough.

[exbearkat]

We'll make just as many - if not more - ourselves, trust me. ;)

[BAMF cowboy]

Katy held SLC to their lowest point total in 5A (15). They were fortunate to keep it that low. The lowest so far this season is 28. Katy will be lucky (and i doubt they'll be able to) keep SLC under 20 in this game.

[zippy]

If SLC does not have a running game, they are not going to score to often. Katy has a great backfield. Probably one of the best SLC has seen. They are not going to beat them in the air this week. Katy still has the long drive capablility, so they are going to work the clock like the last matchup. Should be a good game. Also, dont expect to take advantage of Katy turnovers, they dont happen often.

[zippy]

Good joke, not going to even be close to that.

Don't worry about the running game. Tre Newton is pumped and healthy for this game, and Greg can definitely run it when he needs too. And we have seen 'great backfields' before, hasn't stopped us yet. Not only are our receivers great, they have depth like you wouldn't believe, and unless you have 8 fresh A game back that can be in the game the entire game, we will find a hole. Just the way we do it. Good luck to both teams this saturday!

[zippy]

8 WR's 1 QB, 1RB, 5OL = 15 players. Cant have them all out at once... And when has SLC not had a ton of WR's? Everytime I have seen them play they have had 6 or so.

[ftballin11]

Considering Katy is the team known throughout the state for being a "second half" team, I find it a little hard to believe that they will be out adjusted. Against SV the second half was a cruise control that almost went disasterous. Katy tried running 1st, 2nd, then throw deep on 3rd since they were in 3rd and long due to loss yardage on the runs. Doerr got off two punts that looked like trash, but ended up being 2 of the best punts of the season. I am not saying a team will beat the other team. If Katy can't run the ball and waste clock, they're simply done for.(unless the offense is just racking up the points). Neither team will be held below 20. SLC has given up more than 20 points in the past few weeks, so their defense is not unbeatable.

"Quote DC06: Katy held SLC to their lowest point total in 5A (15). They were fortunate to keep it that low. The lowest so far this season is 28. Katy will be lucky (and i doubt they'll be able to) keep SLC under 20 in this game."

Fortunate, lucky, fluke... all these words keep coming up as excuses for the loss. It was two years ago... it doesn't determine this game!!! It was not a fluke, Katy wasn't "lucky or fortunate" they simply controlled the ball. SLC came out with pick your poison type of style, and Katy made them have a taste of their own medicine. Smash mouth running game with Aston, then a deep pass to close the game to Mouton. Don't take away from a great game by adding in those 3 words about it.(fluke, fortunate, lucky)

Those "holes" that you speak of will be few and far between on Saturday. You'll see. :)

lol, well no, they aren't all out at the same time. but every 3 plays can be a beating, even for the best of defensive backs. My main point was just that there are a ton of different ways we can hit you, and I think that'll be the difference maker, or at least one of them. Like I said, great match up, but I still think we'll come out on top. I am a bit biased though, what can I say :rolleyes:

The Dragons were good sports in '03 - both team and fans. I was surprised because it was tough to lose at the end of two perfect seasons. The team, students and parents got my respect.

Now they're back to square one and I believe they hold the same principles. We would see a class team respond as before.

The bad thing about this is someone will lose and that is a pretty hard emotion to handle. Especially when you are young.

during the 02 and 03 seasons, there were only substitutions due to injuries, which were almost non-existant. last year was the first time that substantial and significant substitutions were tried. this year it has become a regular event for everyone but mckay j.

cy-falls coaches, and i believe several other schools down here believe in substitutions to "keep the legs fresh" approach. it is an idea that has merit.

this year's talent glut has allowed some of our games to turn into relay races. we didn't have the numbers in years past, i guess. it has been successful this year , and last too.

Mark my words....This game will be REAL good for a half. SLC will break it open in the second half....Paybacks are hell!!

Final Score

[pepbear92]

Reposted & slightly edited from other thread:

Katy 38
SLC 33

1st Q - Katy comes out of the gates & scores 2 touchdowns in the 1st quarter - one drive eats up about 5 minutes which allows SLC only one possession (TD, but a missed extra point)

Katy 14, SLC - 6

2nd Q - SLC's 2nd drive stalls out with an incomplete pass on 4th & 5 on the Katy 25; Katy responds with a solid drive which results in a FG; next SLC drive produces a long TD pass that cuts the deficit to 4 points. Katy responds with a long pass of its own, but the score gives SLC too much time - the 2 minute offense produces another SLC strike in the end zone.

Halftime.... Katy 24, SLC 20.... This is where the game will be won or lost, Katy has had back-to-back 3rd quarter disasters; if it happens agains, SLC will pull away & win it. If Katy can match SLC in this quarter, Katy will grind it out in the 4th quarter for a victory.

3rd Q - SLC opens up with a good drive that results in its 1st rushing TD of the game, but once again, a missed extra point gives some of the momentum away; Katy answers with a couple of mid-range passes & then punches it in with a solid rushing game.

Katy 31, SLC 26

4th Q - SLC mixes in a great rushing & passing game which leads to a beautiful TD pass in the corner with 8 minutes to go. Katy's offensive line begins to wear down SLC & punches in another TD after a 6 miute drive. THis is where the mixed extra points haunts SLC. They move into the red zone, but are forced to try to go for the TD. THE SLC QB makes his only mistake of the game which results in a int. on a desperate 4th down play.

Katy 38, SLC 33...best game in history of 5A state finals.

Seriously - The keys to the game.

1) Can the Katy defense slow down the offensive machine of SLC? If they can cause some long drives, the SLC QB does have a tendency to force passes & make some critical turnovers (I'm not insinuating that he is an interception machine - just that I saw him throw 4 in the playoffs, 3 against Plano alone - Katy will put SLC away if it happens this week). If SLC plays a turnover free game, then they will be extremely diffficult to beat.
2) Can the Katy QB & receivers take advantage of SLC's secondary? If the Katy offensive line can give him some time & the QB displays the accurracy he has shown for the majority of the season (not as much of late), it will be an exciting shootout, because Katy will get its yards on the ground.
3) Can the SLC kicking game keep them out of trouble? This aspect almost cost them against Plano, but Plano was too one-dimensional to take advantage in the 2nd half.

2 X-Factors:

1) This is clearly a home game for SLC (very used to playing in TS) - will the new surroundings throw off the focus of Katy a little?
2) Some new blood for both teams at key positions (QB & RB for instance), which of these players best block out the hoopla surrounding this game, plays at a high level, & produces their A game?

[SLCDRGN]

There is no way this happens.
There is not going to be a blow out. If SLC wins i think they will win by 10 at the most. If Katy wins they will only win by about 3 to 5 points.

I took out all the homer picks on this thread and the other prediction thread.

SLC+8.9------posters(homers excluded)
SLC+10-------Jerry's

First time Katy has not been picked to win a game this season. I was looking at the poll on another thread that has Katy picked to win. It is not a public poll. Only 2 5a undefeated teams left what else could you ask for? Coach Joseph and Dodge along with both programs will bring Class into the DII championship game. I expect the fans will also. To much respect for each other to have it any other way.

[Drag Goon]

I am being realistic. These boys are pumped and ready to plat there last High School football game. They have saved there best performance for last.

I am pretty sure this will be some of Katy's last HS football game as well. :o

I would think that SLC is extra pumped for this game but that may be to their detriment. If the game is close it may favor Katy (unless it is a late comeback) because of SLC kicking game.

The weather looks like it may be a little nasty. Other than messing up the tailgating parties, will this favor either team?

no it shouldnt. it will just be cold and wet on the field.

[KTBTyler]

I predict that whichever team scores the most points will win.

Oh and who makes the least mistakes and the best plays and plays with the most heart :rolleyes:

Actually I have no clue. I hope Katy pulls it. I've looked at the stats and seems we're pretty evenly matched. I'm pumped for an aweosme game.

[dada]

The team that scores the most points will win:D ...That's my prediction.(edited: I see they guy above me has the same prediction)


Serioulsy....I think the indimidation factor is gone since Katy was the last team to beat Carrol..Not saying Katy is over confident. I don't think it will be as high scoring as everone thinks....Katy's D will be the difference....One key 3 and out at the perfect time......28-24 Katy.

[TD2000]

Katy Wins A Close One 24-21.

[Texas-Raised]

this game is like something you would see in a movie. you have the rich high class undefeated team vs the poor small farm town undefeated team where no-1 in their right mind would pick katy to beat the #1 team in the nation execpt katy fans and players. and at the end of the movie the under-dog pulls off a meraculous win with nothing but heart. " we didnt win today because we have better athletes we won because we have heart"!

think of the movie Hoosiers... yeah katy pulls this one out at the end

[JoeC]

More than anything, I hate picking between two medicines of which I like neither. Oh well, under those circumstances I guess you chose the one that you dislike the least. Reluctantly, I'll have to go with SLC. For some strange reason I just don't like Katy . . . I've been having this strange feeling in the pit of my stomach since around . . . 1997 and every time I hear a word that sounds like Katy it flares up. :( Seriously, all jokes aside, I have the utmost respect for both programs - especially their coaching staffs. My feelings, if the scores are held below 28 points, Katy wins; on the other hand, SLC wins. If Katy can work the clock and convert several key third and forth downs - look out (!!!); conversely, if not - really look out, SLC in a mini runaway. Finally, never underestimate the methodical (systematic) nature of Katy. Speaking as someone with first hand experience, these types of teams have the ability to frustrate the hell out of you. :rolleyes:

Scenario 1 - - Katy 24 SLC 21
Scenario 2 - - SLC 38 Katy 17

[SLC'04]

SLC i believe should pull out its third state championship in 4 years on sat if and only if they can prevent kicking game errors. If there are kicking game errors like there was in '03 KT may find themselves with another state title. All PATs must be made becuase i expect it to be close and like in '03 one point can win the game. Can Riley kick the extra point he seems like a good enough athlete to kick a 20 yard field goal (fentris holding). Imagine the fakes they could run....:rolleyes:

SLC: 30 (4 TDS one missed PAT and a field goal)
kt: 24

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Good joke, not going to even be close to that.

Yeah.... That is the same type of comment the Lufkin fans made prior to last weeks game.

[BigWhiteJake]

yeah watch out man, i have people trying to fight me because i said katy had a chance but southlake should win.

[TXfbfan]

1st half

Both teams come out well offensively, Katy has two long time consuming drives, Slc also has long time consuming drives due too katy keeping recievers in front 14-14

2nd Half

Both offences open up and start scoring quick, 31-28 end of 3. Katy takes the lead in forth on a bomb too Fuda, on SLC next drive, MC is flushed out of the pocket and forces a pass to jacobsen, Thompson jumps the route and takes it too the house for 6.Katy wins

42-31

[GPDragon]

Carroll - 52
Katy - 21

[TXfbfan]

Carroll - 52
Katy - 21

WOW if katy scores 21, SLC wont have time to score 52, In 03 there 1st scoring drive was like a whole quarter.

[GPDragon]

WOW if katy scores 21, SLC wont have time to score 52, In 03 there 1st scoring drive was like a whole quarter.

I think that 14 of those points come at the end of the game. It won't be close.

[SLC'04]

With SLCs improved D and KTs new "passing game" that makes them balanced will prevent the full quarter drives. SLC will have thier chance to put the points up, its just a matter of if they do or not. The game will be won on either a huge bomb from Mcelroy to Fentris or Thompson will pick it off and tip toe down the sideline bobbling the ball. :o

[BigWhiteJake]

obviously anything can happen, however the post i read earlier about the game going one of two directions was basically dead on. obviously, unlike most of you, i have seen both teams a lot with my own two eyes and im not yet convinced katy can keep up, if they cant you could see a mini blow out circa madison 01. if katy can they will very likely win just because thats all we do down here is play football, this will be the epitome for a lot of guys on that field, and believe me, they arent going down without a fight. if katy has the ability to keep it close, then they will likely win because they just want it more, i believe, thats what i have seen from this team the past two weeks.

[GPDragon]

There is NO WAY Katy will win this one. Based on what I have seen from Carroll, this should not be a problem.

1. They are steam rolling their competition

2. Home field....nuff said

3. Revenge for 2003

4. Best offense in the state

Katy is good this year, but they will not beat Carroll. From what I have seen and read, Katy's offense has sputtered as of late and their defense is less than spectacular. Unfortunately one of these two teams will have to lose and I promise that team will be Katy.

[BigWhiteJake]

ill just go out on a limb and say you havent seen katy play. the offense is sputtering because other DC's found a weak spot and are guarding us better, so we will have to change this week, if i spotted it im sure joseph and brixey did too, so you can bet the dynamics will be different. the defense has been outstanding, i guess you're a moron who just reads the scores and says o hey 28 points cy falls ran all over them, but that wasnt the case at all, they had some field position. same with SV, their 2 scoring drives started on our half of the field because our punter was having flashbacks from the big green evidently and thought vickers was swinging a mace at him. other than that basically no one has scored effectively on the first team defense, granted you wouldnt know the difference because you dont know the rosters or the situation of the game, just the final score.

omg i just stood up for katy.

You're right, I haven't seen Katy play. I have however seen Carroll play and I remain confident that Katy just doesn't have what it takes.

[BigWhiteJake]

well ive seen every game for both teams, and you know im not some bias katy fan. yall are great, but im telling man, you never know how that ball is going to bounce. i have actually said yall are the best high school football team that i have ever seen, its just katy is the notre dame of high school football. im not even kidding that there are parents who would kick their kids out of the house for quitting football down here, im sure its somewhat the same up there. this game is just such a big deal to everyone that i have no clue if we are going to see some dynamic morph from the team. i will give you that to win, we will have to catch some breaks, but talk to SV and cyfalls, cause it happens.

HOW can anyone be so obtuse? "Gee, you guys are right I haven't seen Katy play, but that makes my opinion matter" Who is this guy?

Well, we said the idiots would come out of the wood work, everyone and their dog getting a sn this week, playing football-know-it-all.

Katy girls are hotter, Katy's gonna win! How's that for an argument- doesn't matter, I've never seen SLC girls

I've seen katy ball and they ain't that great. There running back last year was alot better than the two this year. Where is he at? They might have had a better chance with him against slc. SLC by 14 points.

[BigWhiteJake]

he up thurre at da ohio state univurrsuty, where you see katy play at dawg? aint yates a 4a bunch?

[ftballin11]

Every thread I've looked at today so far has ended with a talk about hot girls haha, where is this board going to. You cannot say Katy WILL NOT WIN BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES when you have never seen Katy play. You just made your whole post a biased, selfish, and homer post. Look at the stats all you want, that will not tell you what kind of team you're playing.
Revenge for 2003: You think Katy will want to be known as the "1 year wonder" against SLC? It was not a fluke despite what is popular belief these days. Katy still has a running game so do not tell me that they don't. Take the stats for the year on both RB's and take the attempts into consideration. After a little calculating you will notice Katy had much less attempts, so if the pace kept going, Katy would have had 66 more yards rushing than SLC on the year with the same amount of attempts. Very close between the two teams. Now tell me that Katy doesn't have a chance. SLC says they will tear apart Katy with their 11 different players that can run the ball. Sorry, but only one person can run with the ball at a time. A run is a run, Newton may be quicker than anything, but it's still a run, and Katy just has to step up and show they can stop the run consistantly. SLC's WR situation... 4 maybe 5 greats. Katy didn't double up on Drabek, or Bayer when they played them the whole game... so don't underestimate the DB's. Very physical receivers going against very physical DB's. SLC's DB's have been burned on a few occasions, not saying they're weak so don't send me anthrax in the mail. You're observations on the game were simply popular belief, no considerable facts. No facts, opinions, or parents will change this game... It is going to be who ever wants it more and who ever plays THEIR game and not the OTHER TEAMS game.

[BigWhiteJake]

the only thing is...

i do think they can stop jacobsen, although hes and shoulders above any recevier a katy fan has seen this year...

i just dont think they can consistantly stop MJ, renfro, fentriss, smiter, and allen, they all have at least 37 catches, and that stat might be old, even newton and riley dodge have caught more passes than any katy WR not named fuda. there is just so many people to cover that every player on defense is going to get tested, and we all know who the crappy starters are, i dont even wanna hear one katy fan act like they dont who the weak links in that defense are.

hey man, i love david as a person, you said it, not me

[Texas-Raised]

i dont care hes trash who cares if he cuts coach j's grass on the weekends if he sees the field put up 6 for the home team

[WildcatFan]

I see 31-28 but I won't go as far as making a winner prediction.

This is going to be one heck of a game!

[TiGeRgiRL97]

he is not trash! he a great person on and off the football field!!

who cares how he is off the field this isnt 5atexasmorals.com c'mon now jade

Ohio state? What was his name? That boy ran like a rottweiler was chasing him.

[BigWhiteJake]

james aston

[Texas-Raised]

James Aston is in line to start next year that will be awesome to watch!!

[BigWhiteJake]

no he isn't...

Antonio Pittman was a sophomore this year, so James certainly wont be starting next year or the year after.

[ftballin11]

I think Aston was almost confused once and put down as he blocked a punt and ran it back for a TD... could be wrong. I don't remember where I saw this so don't ask me for the article. Could just be another Aston on the team, or maybe Ashton?

[Texas-Raised]

o yes my bad i forgot pittman was young
i wonder if he will see the field at all? that would still be fun to see

Sorry, but Katy's defense just can't hang with the Carroll offense. That's not a statement of opinion, its fact. Frankly, I don't believe Katy's offense will be able to do anything against the Dragon defense. The offensive line was exposed a few weeks ago. If the Dragon defensive line comes out there with any amount of speed they can beat the Katy oline.

[Sakatha]

ok good answer??

Katy is no David...

Katy is, imo, the scariest team we've had to face so far this year.

One thing you will find is that Dodge, and the team, don't take *anybody* lightly.

Had SLC taken Plano lightly, SLC would be watching this game on t.v....

~DnM

[BigWhiteJake]

the offensive line wasnt exposed, the immobile quarterback was... the oline is the reason katy is still in the playoffs...

as for the matter of fact/opinion, your opinions cant be facts until some have been proven right before...just how it works, im not the one making the rules...

Wow, that was heavy Sadowski hate right there. Evidently that Texas Raised fellow is David's backup.

and you openly admit to have never seeing katy play!!!! wow that takes Guts or stupidity.....either one doesnt bode well for you my friend.

I guess that SV didnt have any speed on defense..nor did cy falls...
Both those defenses are faster(maybe better) than Southlakes D. this is my opinion, NOT FACT and i have seen all three teams play. SLC has a good D and will pose katy alot of challenges, but they are not any faster than the last two we have seen. Just like Katy is not any faster than Lufkin's D....its all about game plan and discipline. This will be the first team SLC has faced that can play a smart, disciplined, EFFECTIVE zone defense. so it shall be intersting.

Really all your post needed was the good ole DEFAULT line---"Katy's O line is big, fat and slow" then it would have gone down in infamy. I'm really disappointed you didnt go there, with the credibility you have so well established.


and who are the Galena Park Dragons...havent heard of them...but they cant be that good..its a FACT. LOL

i agree completely! good post

[BigWhiteJake]

Well, Charlie Weis never played a down, but I played until I hated it.

Just wondering, how many clips of Southlake have you seen, just wondering. I know that you wouldn't be making statements about a team you have never even seen play, right?

Also, how many sports companies have you worked for? Just wondering.

yeah good point i am 17, whats that tell you? that i am more qualified for certain positions than people twice my age...

are you a senior at katy?

[baldtiger15]

your only 17 right? ok just checking
Look Tex- I don't know who you are nor do I care. BWJ has done a good job this week not starting any trouble. Whatever makes you think that you can get on this board and bash any of the athletes is not only classless, but try it again and you can guarantee admin will boot your sorry a$$ off here.

If you have a beef with BWJ settle that crap PM, don't bring it here. If you have some intelligent thought to provide to a thread, then post. Until then shut your mouth.

That goes for everyone- Lots of noobies on here talking crap, pretending to know these teams. That's what boards are for, but don't make it personal-
As for the rest of us. Just think, in a couple of weeks, it will all be back to normal.

[BigWhiteJake]

im just standing up for david, hes a good christian and quite frankly i dont see how you can take a jab at him at all. he played for katy last year, started games, and has been excellent in filling his role this year. you better watch out man, they gave me death threats for just stating the obvious, if you start bashing one of their players they might hang you from the rafters of the field house

[WestlandTiger'95]

hey jake....
dont you think its about time to change your location to Mrs. Johnson's 9th grade English class rather than jasper?

Remember "it's better to be a moron than a liar"

[BigWhiteJake]

im a senior goob, and i could prolly whip your ***, so id watch it, besides youth ministers shouldnt be hurling insults, shouldnt you have another cheek turned so i can slap?

all said with a light heart;)

[Pack Backer]

After beating our Panthers, SLC deserves the #1 ranking
I can't see anyone betting against them. They are the real deal.

SLC 31
Katy 27

[NTxTiger]

In mid-season I didn't think SLC could beat Katy, but after seeing Katy's penalties against Beaumont Westbrook and hearing how they didn't use their passing game as they should have last week (usually waiting for third down), I'll say SLC 28-Katy 14:eek: Hope I'm wrong!

Katy will win, however, if they mix it up and avoid the mistakes.

[nate]

There will be a lot of Southlake fans saying, "What the heck just happened?" at about 3:00 on Saturday afternoon if the statements on this board are reflective of their true feelings about the game.

Its one thing to be confident, but you do remember who beat you last, right? I mean, giving that same school no chance to do it again is just silly in my opinion.

Katy will be much better than any team Southlake has seen this year. The kids can get all pumped up and thinking about revenge and ready to execute their gameplan, but when they realize the guys on the other side are just as skilled and disciplined as they are, it will be a brand new experience. Many Dragon players and fans are in for a suprise, regardless of the outcome.

Southlake does not have a monopoly on Championship level football.

Hey bald tiger maybe you missed one of the best lessons taught in life...and that is knowing when to be quiet and not talk...and in your case you just talked when you were supposed to listen.....Regardless of what you think everyone has there own opinion on here and has a right to state it.....and last i checked you were an all district player....ya know i may not have many posts but i am a community veteran and i read ALOT more and LEARN alot more than i post and you have an opinion but i dont think its very well respected ESP coming from a 100 post guy.....

I'm sorry if you can't read (or spell) but apparently you missed the entire purpose of the post. I said exactly what you did, without the personal attacks. Everyone has an opinion, that's what this board is for.

I don't care who you are either. Veteran of what- this board, Well I'm a veteran too. USMC- and one life lesson I learned there was actions speak louder than words. So, yes I have sat back and listened. Until people like you stick your nose where it wasn't invited. Learn from your own life lesson- when to speak. . I never addressed you, why should you care. Furthermore- opnions are like a$$holes, we all have them and they all stink. I'll let you know when I want yours again.

You think the number of posts determines respect, or whether or not you are a "veteran." So if Dodge or Joseph themself got on here, you wouldn't respect them, because they're less than a 100 poster. Me calling you a pompous idiot and saying that's my opinion accomplishing nothing. The same way bashing a quality student athlete from anywhere is classless and has no place on this board. Stick to football- not finger pointing.
