  1. Agree, but Buchholz has been mentioned on this forum. On the other hand, Deland (6-1) hasn't after the 7th week of the season. Hence a "SLEEPER."
  2. True, but 7 TD passes for the win, from this coach's single-wing leadership ? Just maybe (you think) he has a balanced attack ?
  3. This three time Florida state champion's QB threw for 7 TD's in last night's 6th victory of the season. This legend has stated it takes about three years, with a new team, to grow a contender. He's in the middle of year two. Lookout 4S, balanced sleeper is slipping in
  4. That explains it all ! Once they got rid of you in 1993 that started a playoff streak still going to this day. Although they did get stripped one year during the playoffs for ineligible participation they still were good on the field. * Daytona Mainland's ongoing public school playoff record started a year later in 1994. The 2023 playoffs will give Mainland thirty in a row. 1994-2023. Nulli, if memory serves me right, FAMU was also "scraping the bottom" in your years. Coincidence, you say ? I think not...shaking my head in pity. * Homer plug
  5. Careful Jambun, I see a potential hazard in your future, inflicted by a left-right combo.
  6. Young man, checkout the record book. Things weren't always as they are now, enjoy https://fhsaa.com/documents/2023/9/20//Football_2022_2023.pdf?id=4475
  7. Was that the "Give 'em Hell John L" year at Palatka or UF ? Help out this old brother. . .
  8. Jambun, Personal Foul .....No more "french fries" for you !
  9. Pipe Dream with an "Edge." Where have you been ? Building cities, I surmise ? Darter always spoke fondly of you as a player, and a young up and comer. Careful Darter, this is Pipe Dream 2.0
  10. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham. ( "Bananas" Woody Allen )
  11. Iconic confrontation between two of Hollywood's All Time Greats. Where Jambun fits in isn't clear to me.
  12. I'm in agreement with your assessment. He's edgier now, much more assertive, and very aggressive and condescending when the officiating profession is attacked or criticized. After a few weeks of going back and forth on the internet we met up (my suggestion) for lunch at RR (his choice). Surprisingly it went well. We then didn't insult each other for several years after that lunch. That was my one and only trip to Red Robin's. That S Funny, I believe we've met...
  13. Geez... Trelle, why'd you have to tell us that. Some of those old "irritators" didn't always bring out the best in me. I'm afraid to look.....
  14. ..."the less I have to deal with People (leftist) who have those beliefs, the better." The vast majority of black coaches in Florida are lefty Democrats. You would never hold that against them while refereeing or umpiring a game would you ? Your preconceived biased stripes are now known before you walk on the field! Your post proves it. Please explain
  15. Nolebull, hate's a pretty strong word. I'm thinking more like detest, despise, loathe, intense dislike, and any number of words with similar meanings that can be found in a "Roget's Thesaurus".
  16. My daughter has lived on Bayshore Blvd since 2012. The water spillover was the highest she had ever seen. It did recede in her area enough to walk her dog a couple of times ( maybe on MacDill ?) before noon. High tide was 12:30pm.
  17. The newbies are easily mislead, but this Big Game 'Cat knows a "snake in the grass" when he reads his post or steps on one. I believe the stomping continues in November with the venomless Rattlers.
  18. Darter, is the Drummer reference from a hear say or just a reasonable assumption on your part ?
  19. Since Nulli started this ball busting thread and others have nicely carried it onward, any word on two of my favorite keyboard nemesis : Bulldog '87, and Dummer or (another name) ? B'dog was a Deland High grad who's last post was a year or two ago, Drummer, an undersized New Jersey O-Lineman played for Bosco in the 1960's. He lived near Boca Raton in FLoor-a-duh. Haven't seen this elder gentleman post on any message board since Covid. Both had no problem raising my blood pressure. I wish death and destruction on no human being. But surely a little headache or inconvenience tossed upon this pair would have brightened any of my days.
  20. Uncle Luke (Luther Campbell) , 2 Live Crew fame... Haven't found what Luke said, but when colleges are filling the pockets of recruits and current team members with free flowing NIL (name,image,likeness) dollars, it wouldn't be much of a surprise if some of that cash made it's way down to some high schooler's. Unlike college players, with $$$ contracts, who's to stop NIL collegians and others from giving "teens" a little incentive to attend their alma mater and continue on a winning tradition. Makes sense to me.
  21. Any old timer remember the "Newbie" who had the "inside scoop" on a certain Blue/Black team all the while he didn't realize he was conversing with that teams Head Coach ? Inside jokes "be damned" but it was hilarious.
  22. Almost didn't recognize the Legend...trim, alert, well groomed, youthful smile. It's been a decade since my last encounter. He looks like he could easily do 20..25 more. I thought he'd have been enticed ($$$) by now to come home to Polk county to replace another Hall of famer and keep that juggernaut over there sailing along. I'm starting a funding drive here on the East Coast with area coaching contributions quickly adding up. Not that he too isn't loved over here, but we just think with our blessing he would be happier over there. Now that Dade has been legislated out of the way there's no need for any unnecessary bumps in the road.
