Every now and then, when I'm catching up on the threads, I'll hit "next unread topic" one too many times and it takes me back to some post from 2018 that existed before I joined this forum.  Inevitably, I'll see a post from Old School Lion.   I really don't know what happened or why he stopped posting, but I miss his contributions.   That's all.

He made some comments in a thread that implied STA was buying players and when confronted about it he just decided to quit instead of actually facing accountability for his comments

Yeah, we all know that STA wasn't buying players . . . their accountants ran the numbers and decided STA would be better off financially if they just leased the players instead.  :D

STA usually doesn't even get that many transfers 

 

DFB usually gets far more but nobody accuses them

I can think of at least members on here who would disagree with that :lol:

Wow, I didn't intend it to be taken that way.  Do know that his beliefs and mine when it comes to transfers don't quite jive.  Publics are the big violators in his view and I believe certain privates are just as bad only easier to justify as most enrollees are for academic reasons.

I have reason to believe that Old School Lion is alive and well and that he departed due to his belief that it was time to move on. In my view, regardless of whether one agreed with his positions most of the time, he was a positive contributor to this forum and for that reason, I miss his posts. 

Perhaps one day he will choose to return, only time will tell. OSL, if you still read posts on this board, many of us miss the trivia you used to post and wish you the best. Your knowledge of Florida High School Football reflects your love and passion for the game, as well as its participants.

prepgridiron, but it's the wild, wild west. Lost of guys like @nolebull813post on it. Of course, NB is pretty calm on this board. 

I just checked out that board out of curiosity.  Lots of aggression and internet tough guys over there from what I can tell?

That board is going downhill fast, they ban people for practically no reason but allow guys like Los to break every rule they ban others for and don't even touch him 

 

I don't have any interest in posting there anymore

Do you remember that Aquinas fan Carlos, or something like that? Always attacking people for things related to his school, or anything else for that matter. Dude swore he was the Einstein of HS football

Could this columbiajoker be C-los reincarnated?

If you notice anytime someone mentions Sta and the "R" word he jumps to their defense and starts pointing fingers at other schools and trying to change the subject. Hmmm:ph34r:

Who the hell do you think your talking to?

 

 

You don't know anything about football you quack, you know nothing about SFL, what's sad is you have the same SFL source as me but while I can talk and sound intelligent you sound like a jackass 

 

But all you talk about Lake Wales like they a top 25 program and get all bitchy when people say otherwise like you know everything

 

I don't give two shits about STA but it's pathetic that people on here got to lie because it doesn't fit their agenda but hey keep thinking it's only privates who are recruiting

 

It makes you look as smart as I think you are, take a wild guess what I think that is?

No cloumbifan is not los canes, don carlos or canes.

The site became a club of old ballers and coaches. It isn't easy being excepted by some over there, but others are fun to read.

    • I was actually itching to treat some wager some money on some sports matches that are happening above-board now. I wanted to let you guys identify that I did spot what I ruminate on to be the kindest site in the USA. If you fall short of to get in on the spirit, check it out-moded: [url=https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/]https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/[/url]
    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face.
