  1. A sturdy limb? More like a giant redwood tree. It's almost guaranteed that at least a few playoff games will be effected by the virus.

    I agree; this is a local rivalry game between two teams that play a very physical game of football. Expect emotions to run high and penalties should be plentiful. These kids know each other well and bragging rights will add to the intensity. I still expect Edgewater will win this based upon greater depth and talent. Next year could be entirely different as kids tend to drift between schools in Orlando as local supremacy shifts back and forth. Recruiting has destroyed the balance we used to have in Central Florida.

  5. Assuming the virus doesn't miraculously go away immediately after the elections. (Note: This was not a political statement; no one can prove I was being sarcastic).

  7. My laugh was more of the nervous variety. I did not intend to take humor out of our precarious position. But what you outline could easily happen.

  8. The devil's advocate response to your 'bad part' scenario is that only one team can advance from the Region The two best teams are likely going to end up playing each other at some point -- what difference does it make if it's the first game or the third or fourth game. That said, I agree with your comment. In a perfect world, the two best teams would play in the Regional championship game, not in the opening playoff game. You want a bad scenario: take one of those winless teams that S1nglewing is talking about. Let's say they avoid a play-in game. Then, the team that they are scheduled to play in the first round gets hit hard with Covid -- so hard that they are forced to cancel their game, resulting in a forfeit. And then, low and behold, it happens a second or perhaps even a third time . . . next thing you know, you've got a winless team winning a regional championship. Talk about an asterisk! I mean, something like that could only happen in 2020.

    Jones V Edgewater

    I can't answer for EagleEye, but the following comments may lend some perspective. Last year's game was attended by over 4,000 fans and was played with a lot of emotional intensity. Edgewater shares a boundary with Jones, among other schools, and there tends to be a lot of emotional intensity between the schools as the game (when scheduled) is played for bragging rights. Over the last 20 years or so, when Jones was down, several Jones kids have appeared on Edgewater rosters.
