    Don't you wish you would have listened to this before you got married.  I'm justifying posting this because they are words of wisdom from a football coach.

    Seriously, buddy, there is not some magic resource out there has it all...at least not one that I know of.  I have kept many records over the past 50 years.  Some folks have made great efforts to compile seasonal records of specific teams, ie nolebull.  
    It's OK to guess!

    Cocoa destroyed Satellite and Rockledge likely would have as well.  So Brevard has Cocoa and Rockledge and then there is a huge gap.  In another thread, Keem mentioned the disadvantage of Cocoa playing local teams.  This data makes it obvious why.  There really is no "local" competition for Rockledge and Cocoa, at least not within the county.
    The thread I just did on Hillsborough shows a similar phenomenon.  To some extent, all of the more populous counties seem to experiencing the same ...a relative few "rich" schools and everyone else.
    We talk about a disappearing middle class and a growing lower class in the US.  I see the same happening in hs football.  It is causing certain schools to have to travel to find competition.  The fan is enduring more blowouts.  And possibly some potential players don't come out because their school has a losing program.  As more schools come on line, I see the situation only getting worse.

    Ah, young man, your wife has trained you well and already has you programmed I see.   They are masters at this.  But remember, we ARE the dominant gender.  
    I watched the game last night.  The officials definitely made some questionable calls.  Palmetto's D was very aggressive and there were several questionable no-calls at the line.  I think that just encouraged Palmetto even more.     
    At the end of the day,  Vero's offense could not get a rhythm, partly due to to Palmetto's D and partly due to a qb who had an off night.  If not for the trick play, they may have been shut out.  I honestly think the better team won last night regardless of any referee mishaps.  Am not taking anything away from Vero.  Vero's D has done a very nice job the past few years.  But their offense has only managed 7 points in each of their past three playoff losses.  Defense usually wins championships, but that assumes a reasonable level of offensive output.  
    On another note, I don't care if Vero played multiple south FL teams this season, I don't think it would have necessarily changed the outcome last night.

    Apparently when the Madison County bus arrived in Hawthorne and stopped for directions to the stadium, some sneaky locals told the bus driver, "We don't have no football team here."

    Vero did a fine job last night.  Despite being one-dimensional, Palmetto had some athletes on offense that needed to be stopped, and Vero's D contained well. 
    I thought Palmetto's defense was very well-rounded.  Their db's seemed to be there on every pass play, and we know Vero has some good wr's.  Palmetto's D-line provided constant pressure and contained well at the edges.  Play that game 10 times and I think Vero's offense would be routinely challenged...as would most offenses around the state.  No shame losing to that team and great effort by Vero.
