You are getting old Prosteye, you need to see about the OTC retirement home. Maybe Kerwin Bell, and John Brantley's parents reside there, (if they are still with us.)

79 and still kicking it. Of course Bell is 25 years younger than I am and is the OC of the South Florida Bulls. John Brantley III is only 60 and, as far as I know, is still going strong. I still attend the Celtic's home games but no longer follow them out of town. Night driving out of town is somewhat of a challenge these days. Thanks for your concern. B)

I have a few games.

 

Glades Central's lost to Cocoa in 2010 was a heartbreaking defeat. The score was 13-14. A field goal would have put the Tigers away giving Glades Central its seventh state championship.

 

Madison County Loss to Glades Central in 1999 was another 33-28. Madison County was closing on the victory, but Glades Central scored on with a deep pass in the endzone with seconds left on the clock.

 

Clewiston's loss to Jacksonville Bolles is another in 2006. They lost in overtime 24-27. The reason why this was a heartbreaker because the Muck would have a clean sweep in the state championship with Glades Day, Pahokee, and Glades Central all won state championships. Clewiston would have had its first sole state championship.

 

That same year, Lakeland and St. Thomas Aquinas squared off in an exciting battle. Lakeland had an amazing lead, but Raiders came back strong forcing them into overtime. However, Lakeland walked away with the win.

 

 

Madison fan here.  I was at that game in 1999.  That was a complete heartbreaker for us.  Very exciting game!  Tough ride home!

No problem at all. People who wear shirts who have different color stripes care!

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave. 
    • This will be an interesting story to follow.  Venice has no proven RB headed in to spring which will be a first for a long time.  They have produced several Dairy Farmers player of the years in that position.  They also will have a massive offensive line with 2 three year starters who return as well as some stud young kids.  They will probably average around 6'4 295 on the line which is huge for Venice standards.  I just wonder if this will change before the start of the season.  I still fell like someone will show up.
    • Are you still talking to me??  Thought I was pretty clear for you not to waste your breath on this subject matter, but somehow you are missing the point.  Teacher unions have limited power in FL because the candidates they overwhelming support keep losing.  If they had won, the teacher union vote had a lot to do with it and would be wielding that power.  Osceola county which isn't a GOP stronghold during the past two national elections had the journalism students for the OHS monthly newsletter (Kowboy Jake) interview the faculty as to their political leanings.  A sample of about 30 teachers that were interviewed were voting as follows:  25 D vs 5 R.  Enough said.  
    • You missed the point of my union post. Teacher unions in strong union states have power. Florida unions have zero. They cant strike and the school board can implement a contract without the unions approval. Florida unions are not preventing any raise in Florida. The state has attacked a straw man here.
