There's another forum like this one called "FlaVarsity" and they have some sort of long-running inside joke called the "slaps" or the "slap nation".  I've always wondered what on Earth this is and they won't explain it over there.  So what is this already?????

There are more qualified people to answer that question BUT, from my time over there slap nation were some of the more outspoken, shit talking posters.  Very entertaining.  That board died a terrible death, lol.

There's only like 5 posters on there.  So what is "lame cringe crap"?

There was more years ago. Saying stuff like Slap Nation is cringe. It’s embarrassing and I’m embarrassed on anyone’s behalf who thinks that cool, funny or entertaining. It’s in the pantheon of lameness. If you were involved in it, I would suggest to change your screen name and deny any involvement in it.

Sorry you were not involved or didn't like it but the people that were, were actually real life friends and have some great memories together.  Most of them were great coaches with tons of state titles but more importantly they were good people who were just having some fun.  I'm a proud member and will cherish my time with those that were.  So you might be embarrassed for me but I'm proud to call most of them my friends for life.

Easy there. I’m not talking anything personal. I just said i remember being on that site a long time ago and seeing slap this and slap that and thought it was kinda corny. No sweat. I can guarantee you there are things I have done in my life that someone thought was lame or cringe. Lol. Not everything is for everyone. Also I was just being extra dramatic for ManateeMagicMike because that’s what message boards are for. Hyperbole :P

What do you mean by that? I don't remember a badbird on the Fla Varsity message board. Did you get my message that I want you to send to Warren Sapp about Sam Wyche? 

There was no BadBird on the FV message board. If you lived in metro Orlando you would have figured out what I meant.

I feel like I'm at one of my wife's high school or college reunions . . . the stories just aren't that funny if you didn't know the people.    :P

Perspective, is there any truth to the rumor that you consider your wife the second smartest person that you know after you-know-who?

    • I agree with everything you said. Miami Central does not shy away from tough competition. I'm not sure who's at fault but Miami Central is not scared to play anyone  2010 lost to Camden County 45-42 2010 won against Madison 48-6 2010 won against Prattville 49-28 2012 lost to Grayson 35-3 2012 lost to Manatee 44-34  2013 won against Don Bosco Prep 50-21 2014 won against Hoover 24-21 2014 won against Stephenson 21-20 2015 lost to Dematha 38-14 2017 won against Bishop Gorman 24-20  2017 lost to IMG Academy 24-15 2018 lost to St. John's 37-35 2018 won against St. Thomas Aquinas 43-27 2019 lost to Saint Frances Academy 49-13 2021 lost to St. John Bosco 35-12 2021 lost to Bishop Gorman 21-20 2022 won against IMG Academy 20-14  
    • I wrote on Scorestream a long time ago that Mater Dei would never dare to schedule any of the Florida powerhouses during their "up" years. They wouldn't play Lakeland or Central last season, they wouldn't play IMG when Noah Cain and Trey Sanders were there, they wouldn't play STA in 2019. They never even tried to play Manatee when Coach Kinnan was there nor MNW during the early 2000's. So how can we assume off of the word of "Covercorner," on the Prep Gridiron board, that Central is completely at fault for this game falling through? It becomes even more difficult to believe when they actually have a record of taking on the IMG's, Gorman's, SJB's, and STA's, etc. So why would Mater Dei be different? 
    • Apparently the Mater Dei/Miami Central game was smoke/mirrors and someone on another site gave the low down on what really happened. Copied/pasted statement below by "Covercorner"    It's too bad this game won't be played. It's been a back and forth of he said, she said, behind the scenes. And we'll never probably get why MC decided not to play. For some reason MC was all gung-ho to play this game. Kept asking why MD was taking so long to sign contracts etc. For one, told MC never sent contacts to MD. And the one thing you have to keep in mind with MD, they do their due diligence - they take their time, are slower than other schools to make things happen. Thats because they don't jump the gun before crossing the t's and dotting the i's.. I've seen too may schools/games fall apart because schools talk too much and do things half ass backwards.  Once MD was confirming on its end to go ahead with the game, MC said it didn't have a stadium to play in! How could you not secure a place of game of this magnitude? On the account MD took too long. Also, they wanted to play on a Saturday, at 1 pm.. So that slowed things down, but apparently MC found a place to play..  And once that was squared away, MD was waiting for the contracts... and it was a done deal. And that time, MC all of a sudden decided not to play anymore. And this is where the he said, she said comes into play - said MC got wind of what MD returns, and I don't think realized 18-of 22 return and got the low-down from an insider close to MD. Enough said. Then for whatever reason MC was no longer interested in playing, and thus contracts were never sent by MC's AD. MD even decide to give in to playing at 1 pm on Saturday... Still not interested.  For team who kept talking about taking on all comers and going on Miami Central Hater World Tour they sure changed their tune, or those close to Miami Central making posts on FB on how how bad they were going to beat Mater Dei..  what happened? Someone needs to make it make sense!
