  1. If there was a Vegas betting line on this game, the clock worker would need to go into hiding
  2. Columbiafan has to be running the clock at Citizen's Field. In all seriousness, this is some of the most egregious cheating of time I can remember seeing on the last drive of the half. And it will be available for all to review on the youtube link above.
  3. You're really worked up over this, aren't you?! You're speaking to someone who's lived in California for the last 20 years. In fact, my claim has never been that. I was referring to...wait for it...a TWEET where the effort of Lake Gibson's players were acknowledged but so was the fact that the kid was going to Lakeland. My comment a little bit above was simply in reference to Gator saying the kids had spoken to both programs, while Perspective only seemed interested in the conversation with Lakeland, even though it was said he spoke to both. Anyone who's followed Perspective's comments over the years understands why he'd focus only one way, just as anyone seeing your avatar knows why you focus one way. My aim to is to speak with stark honesty about what's going on. But, just like with politics and matters of ideology, people only want to focus outrage in the direction of the other tribe; never their own.
  4. Picks: IMG 42, Central 13 Chaminade 22, St. Johns 21 AHP 38, Los Al 24 MNW 38, Venice 16 Cocoa 29, Jones 23 STA 27, St. Joes 12 Osceola 20, Treasure Coast 6 Seminole 27, Riverview 13
  5. And I'm sure you realize you could switch out Dreadnaughts with Kowboys, Lakeland with Osceola and Coach Castle with Coach Pinellas, and mean the same thing.
  6. Almost had MNW-Jones too! I had MNW 38-27 and they led 35-24 late, then after they scored to go up 42 Jones got down to the 1 yard line on the last play, could've been 42-31. I'm glad that wasn't a bet I lost haha.
  7. I don't have any clue as to what you're talking about. The fact that you keep talking about it further demonstrates what a disturbed, sick little puppy you are. You're delusional and disturbed.
  8. For the record, I have never thought, stated or suggested that STA is housing players. The way this guy obsesses over repeatedly making a point that nobody here is debating is disturbing.
  9. I remember the topic of traveling large distances for K.O. classics coming up a few days ago. It's just a bad idea to even try to play games in Florida (especially away from the coasts) around 7-8pm this time of year there. Lightning delays are virtually guaranteed. I feel bad for MNW and their fans. That's a long way to travel for a game that should've been obvious was going to be extremely difficult to play.
  10. I don't know anything about any of the players personally, nor do I wish to know. Sometimes things show up on Twitter. That's it.
  11. My guess was based on thinking one loss will come to either Naples or Riverview, but I suppose that may not happen. Flying blind on CAI, but as I've said before my prediction is they will be a beast, beat Venice and have a shot at Lakeland.
  12. Lakeland wouldn't be able to get much done on offense, save for grinding out some first downs and chewing clock. Maybe Tyler Williams or Money would make a big play or two. But, I think Lakeland's defense, if they shortened the rotation and stuck with their best 11-14 players, could hang in vs. the IMG offense. Overall, IMG is a different animal and regular HS teams shouldn't be compared to them. Venice needs Kintigh back. Even with him, a 4-win season seems likely. The schedule is just too insane.
  13. Players make moves for lots of reasons. I don't know anything about him. Obviously, players "shop around". It's a wild time.
  14. I wasn't bragging. It isn't any sort of point of pride. It's just an honest characterization of reality.
  15. IMG and a couple of others are in a class of their own. They offer housing to players. Typical private schools can not do this.
  16. Point is, ANY sort of involvement in housing assistance is a scandal and met with large fines if it's any other school. IMG recruits from other schools, offers housing directly to players, and has never been fined or been in any sort of trouble whatsoever.
  17. Now is the perfect opportunity for you to craft your response to me following the invoking of the running clock on you next week. Let me guess, you have no recollection of the 49-13 score I mention
  18. you will be back. But, short of recruiting and housing players from all over, your primary disposition vs. IMG will be one of severe safety concerns for your players. It is not safe for you to put that kind of team on the field vs. IMG. Had you played the absolute perfect game tonight, IMG would have had to break more of a sweat to put the running clock on you.
  19. Yup. Years ago, the many haters of Lakeland here had a field day when there appeared to be evidence that a Lakeland booster seemed to have helped some kids secure an address in the Lakeland zone. Lakeland was ousted, penalized, fined and shamed everywhere for this. IMG has ALWAYS intentionally offered quality housing to its recruits IN THE OPEN. I don't recall seeing anyone criticize them for this. It's the most blatant of double standards. Nobody else in the state (except for maybe Clearwater International*) openly recruits and houses players from all over. * it is impermissible to mention CAI recruits and houses players from all over. It is also impermissible to suggest they may be loaded this year as a result.
  20. No doubt. I knew they lost two Rbs, but then I watched film of the 2024 kid that replaced them. That was when I knew that those guys left because they were soon to become backups. Venice knows now too. IMG would handle Lakeland most likely as well. Would have to be a Bill Castle special with ball control eating the clock etc to have a chance.
  21. Some of us have been following closely for a few decades. I'll take IMG over Miami Central 49-13. Some may say that's a stupid pick, and that NOBODY beats Miami Central 49-13. But those folks don't know history I think that 49-13 score will be earned over 3-4 quarters, rather than arrived at after an easy running clock like tonight. It might be more like 21-6 at the half, and 35-6 or 35-13 after 3 quarters.
  22. Lakeland and Armwood played a quarter and a half. 13-6 Lakeland when it was called due to lightning. Hard to read much into a quarter and a half. Lakeland's offense was a bit disappointing as there were numerous false starts. But, the quarter and a half were pretty well controlled by the Naughts. They were up 13-0 before the rain started coming down. Armwood's score came after a diving pick (following two false starts bringing up 1st and 20) set them up at about the 30.
  23. Final score was 41-3. Not a surprising result for objective observers, but I understand this wasn't what any of us wanted.
  24. Peacock mentioned something about "...when Kintigh gets back" in his coaches show.
  25. @VeniceIndiansFootball is DT Kintigh out for IMG?
