    I think they are just letting it die a very slow death as posters leave due to boredom, lack of posters or, sadly, death. 

    I just out of curiosity did something I haven’t done in years and checked out there front page. I was surprised they even had up to date stories still.

     

    BTW still not convinced OldSchool and Neutral aren’t the same person lol

    A couple notes from my end:

    1. Disheartening to see that Vero’s three best players (Jacobs, Smith, Monds) were all at Ft. Pierce Westwood last year. This is not a knock on Lenny or the Vero Beach program—it happens everywhere. Just an overall assessment of the nature of high school football as a whole. Not the same game I grew up with. 
     

    2. Sad to see Vero’s YouTube broadcast get kicked to the curb. I get it—if people are willing to pay $15/game, as an athletic department, you do it. That said, the YouTube broadcasts were quite enjoyable. While I’m sure the partnership with the FM radio station will be more professional, they will surely lose some of the fun-loving homer-like tendencies from the YouTube crew. Became a staple of my Friday night’s on the couch—it will be missed. 
     

    Fun game last night. Thanks to the Brevard Sports Network for allowing us in. 

     

    Dang it I didn’t realize it was on the Brevard Sports channel, I listened on the app though which since I played their almost 20 years ago still has great coverage and play by play. And I prob won’t be paying 15 a game some of the games you know will be a total blowout and just aren’t worth it, plus I’ve seen a bunch of people on Facebook complaining about multiple stream issues as well.

    Akeem Dixon- Vero Beach running back 2013-2017 recruited by Syracuse. Akeem was a true fullback that could make his own holes and then kick in an extra gear and outrun the entire secondary. He was one of the best running backs Vero ever had in recent years. He scored 36 touchdowns during his tenure. Then one day I read that he left Syracuse but nobody ever said why. Just curious, does anyone know why?

    Update:

    Just texted a buddy he heard he enrolled into Fl Tech and was gonna play football last year but due to budget cuts and COVID they shut down there football program. Not sure if he’s still enrolled or transferred out. Still don’t know why he left Syracuse. Still hasn’t played college ball.

    I’ve always wondered that myself just disappeared it seems, didn’t see anything of him getting into trouble just left and that was it no real reason.

  5. Man I’m staying at the Parc Soleil right next to LBV didn’t even realize it at first with all the other construction going on looks like it will be a beautiful campus it’s also huge!
     

    Do they anticipate it becoming an 8A school per attendance in the coming years and built it accordingly?

    I don't believe there is grounds for there to be a lawsuit against anonymous poster "Peezy28, or Jambun, or Perspective, or FloridaHSFootball."  I think perhaps they could "try" to sue Josh but that is like me trying to sue Facebook for one of its posters making an false statement about me.

    This was a scare tactic and essentially them trying to throw their weight around... IMO.

    If only there were someone that knew the law who could tell me if I were right or wrong here @Perspective :rolleyes:

    Exactly in order to be proven guilty of libel you have to prove without a doubt that what was written caused direct and irrefutable damages to yourself, business or organization. A message board that what maybe a couple hundred people visit that is based on opinions I doubt would hold any water in any court.

    Ah, young man, your wife has trained you well and already has you programmed I see. :P  They are masters at this.  But remember, we ARE the dominant gender.:rolleyes:

    Yeaaaaaa tell my 2 year old daughter youre the dominant one, you’ll be making play dough cupcakes in her play kitchen faster then it takes to stand up from telling her that lol. I work 15-16 hour shifts when I’m at work (oilfield) I consider that my break time compared to being home lol.

    2. Remain impressed with Vero's commitment to their YouTube broadcasts. While certainly an acquired taste, Todd Wood has grown on me over the years. 

    A lot to be proud of in Vero Beach. 

    Lol I will say I used to stream YouTube on my TV to watch the game but on mute and stream the ChrsitianFM broadcast but now he’s grown on me too and I enjoy his color commentary. The guys though on the radio are gold and still listen to them when I can if I’m driving. I remember going to the games as  a child and my dad bringing a Walkman to listen to their play by play while watching in the aluminum stands under the press box next to that damn train horn!
