52 yards with a stiff wind at his back for sure

[Bullaholic]

O.k guys---I'll fess up about our kicker---At practice, he missed a 60-yarder through the open door of a boxcar traveling at 50MPH perpendicular to him --ONCE. :D

You've shown amazing analytical skills. Nobody wants to face LH. Celina has its hands full this week and it serves no useful purpose to think past Friday night. If Celina plays well enough to make it passed Friday night then I am certain we will be heavy underdogs against LH or Bridgeport. .

Get over it, NOT gunna matter!!

They Don't Need to, You can't stop them from running --- No Sarcasm Just FACT!! No disrespect but a lot of Better Teams than Bridgeport have tried. You can't win 11 or 12 games and all of a sudden think you are the best thing since sliced bread.

PLEASE tell me your joking

Any team with Title hopes does not want to duck the two time defending Champ

LH is a great 3A team, but they are not unbeatable, they are not a perfect team and they do not win by simply showing up

I have a feeling ALL teams left in this bracket want a shot at beating LH, if they dont, they should not be here.

Have you ever tried to actually intelligently discuss the facets of the game, Come On? Please give me something to hang my hat on about LH when I ask a serious question and, save the usual serving of middle-school put-downs for something that is obviously smack.

LH can run a spread offense if they need to. Seriously!!!
They just haven't needed to in a long, long time.

was a tough choice but hunting won out, but I will make it to Waco by about 4 Sat. Remember there will be Counselors on hand at the M&G for you and BudBeer and all the other bull fans. I understand how it is when you are blinded by a little success we went through it also several years ago and got our Butts kicked, just as the Bulls are about to do. Keep it Nice

I'm sure they could, Clem. I was just interested in how well they do and what they do on 3rd and long-yardage situations, maybe because of a major penalty or something.

Honestly they don't have those situations much and if they do, usually they run and run on 4th, if they pass it is Not on 3rd down and I can' remember a game when they passed more than 4 times

Your not allowed to ask those questions to LH fans..this is all you can ask them

How many times should the opposing team thank LH for the chance to be on the same field with the vaunted Panthers

How bad will LH win


Which LH back will have 250, which 175, and which 150

Those are only ones you can ask

Against Burnet he had 2 scores in under 2 minutes. Everyone in he stadium knew he was going to pass...and he hit them in stride and as on the money as you could possibley be. I bet he could let one sail about 65 yards. He's got a cannon. I think he got clocked in the mid 80's while pitching this summer.

[Runnin Panther]

Good grief, I finally caught up. There have been at least 10 posts I have wanted to respond to. But I think I’ll just jump in right here. Sounds like both sides are still feeling pretty good about their chances. Somebody (Bulls) is going to be real disappointed Saturday night.

Sorry to hear about the injuries, unfortunately it’s apart of the game. And I must say you guys have been extremely lucky if you have stayed healthy all year long. One of our running backs had surgery early in the season and I know of about 4 that will need surgery once season ends. We’ve been pretty banged up since the play-offs have started, in fact we haven’t been 100% is a long time, but you just have to play through it. It is what it is, no excuses.

[Maximus]

LHill is going to wish they had already gone 4A in the last realignment after this one. They are not used to hitting the wood floor so early.

Bulls roll by a shocking margin of 17 points.

No, he can ask anything he dang well wishes, and we will answer well we dang well please...

[OldBison75]

I know I'm not from LH and most of you Bridgeport guys think I am a Closet Panther, but I'll try to answer a couple of questions for you. First, LH can pass the ball when needed and as a surprise play now and then. Fickle is a pretty accurate passer and has the knack for finding the open receiver. He is also better on his feet than most QB's that play a running game type offense. He has good footwork and sets himself up well to throw strong, accurate passes. They seldom throw on third down, but can. If they feel the DB's are starting to cheat up any at all and play the run, they will throw to keep the backs on their heels. They will also throw a little swing or screen if the LB's start trying to shoot gaps too much, especially on the outside.

As for long yardage, they will almost always go to their bread and butter running plays in those situations. They seem to feel as comfortable making a 15 yard run on any play as passing for 15.

As I've said before, LH can be beat, but it takes a very disciplined defensive effort. DLineman must play their assignments on every play and win the line of scrimmage with some controlled penetration. The LB's have to control the tackling as most of the LH scheme relies on the O-Line to provide a gap for the back to get beyond the initial point of attack. The LB's on defense have to play free and pursue into a hole and meet the runner i the first couple of yards of the line. The defensive backs have to be sure the ball is in a runers hands and then step up quickly for run support. If the defensive backs have a first step backwards and a runner breakes into the secondary, that step back will allow the LH receivers and off side lineman time to be downfield for block, which they do very well.

Against the LH defense, you must play the short , quick routes that force the LB's into pass coverage. They are the group that will hurt you the most if they can gain control of the defense. If you can kkep them guessing about the short fast passes, they can't get into the game flow and pursue and blitz. Steady blocking at the line will give the QB a little time, but deep dropback passing will usually be rushed because of the penetration and quickness of the LH defensive line. Quick drops and quick passes mixed with timely running is going to be the key.

The Bridgeport offense has the capability of creating a flow that will be to their advantage if they can remain in a game plan that relies on short , quick hitting plays and avoids anything that tkes time to develope, like long passes and draws, reverses and such.

That is about as honest an opinion as I can give, If anyone from Bridgeport cares.

OK, well then I should have answered like this....

They may line up in a spread offense, or they may line up in a pro set, or they may line up in a power I with 2 receiver set, or they may just line up and run the ball up the middle, or maybe pitch it outside, or they may even run the bootleg.

They have done all of the above.

as they say....easier said than done.

No team has been able to do this for 3 quarters let alone 4 all year against LH.

LB's "Playing Free" against LH is a statement that will be so hard to achieve...

Actually, after comparing some game film, I would rank the LH defense behind Prosper and maybe even Argyle, and somewhat similar to Burkburnett and Monahans.

The LH offense looks a little bit better than Llano, but not any better than Monahans.

Bottomline, nothing the Bulls have'nt seen before. JMO:)

EOLHS08

This thread reminds me so much of the thread leading up to the Navasota game last year. It definitely made the week more fun.

We must really look like crap on film because we have heard this same thing from countless teams. I’m not sure what it is, maybe it’s that every play looks almost exactly the same so you think it would be easy to stop. I don’t know, but I hope every team we play keeps saying exactly the same thing as long as we keep proving them wrong on the field.

I watched some Bulls film last night also. Maybe I’ll give my view point a little latter on.

The Nasty is not a novelty offense to them. Most teams only face it once a year. BPort has seen it before, THIS season, and has several former members of 'The Cult' among its staff as well.

They will know all the tricks, the keys, and the steps that are taken in the progression of the Playbook. Plus they match-up athletically. These are all equalizers that The Hill hasn't faced in ONE team at the same time.

Just the humble opinion of an old Slot-T coach none of you have ever heard of.

Dang, this should be entertaining and educational. Nobody has been able to slow the Hill down in 37 games, but all of the sudden the one team that has all of the answers and secrets is the Bridgeport Bulls. After the Bulls shut down the easy ole' slot T this week they will be speaking at every football clinic in the state from January to July. I guess I will have to drive 4 hours to watch this display of defensive perfection first hand

Is there a true "secret" to any offense? There are no secrets. If there were then every offensive coordinator would learn which ever offense was untoppable and then run it.

If you want to play that game look at the Bridgeport versus Vernon and Bridgeport versus Llano games. Both common opponets. Bridgeport beat both teams worse that LH did. What does that mean? Probably not a whole lot. Bridgeport was beating Vernon 35-7 at the half, then put the backups in and beat them 20-7 in the second half.

So the they barely beat them and we beat a team that beat them really doesnt mean a whole lot.

[pirate4state]

121-69 in favor of LH :eek: :eek:

I was necessarily trying to play that game as much as I was trying to say that a game winning FG is still a win. Who cares? I sure as hell don't. Are you going to tell our kids that in 2006 when we beat Celina on a FG, that since we didn't score a TD it doesn't mean as much?
And also, as everyone knows exbull, LH and Bridgeport run far different offenses, so the we beat them worse thing doesn't hold much water. But what maybe does is that we only allowed 3 TD's to Llano and 1 to Vernon. You allowed 4 to Llano and 2 to Vernon:taunt:

[Runnin Panther]

Honestly, I don’t think Bridgeport has the defensive weapons to stop the LH offense.

The test for LH is stopping the BP offense. They probably have the best offensive line we have come up against this year. They are big and strong. Our front 4 need to have a big game. Our defensive 4 are not as big but I think they are quicker. I was surprised that BP’s QB and receivers were not bigger. However the QB does have good vision and moves in the pocket well. We cannot give him time to throw backside or check off to his 3rd or 4th receiver. Our defense tends to be physical and aggressive we are going to have to watch out for the draw plays and screen passes. They also like to dump it off to #5 coming out of the backfield. I think we need to key on him. I did not see any real speed burners, I think our secondary should match up with their receivers rather well. I look for the LH LBs to have a big game.

I am no coach and purely a fan and Mom, but that’s my 2 cents.

I will go with my usual LH by 21.

[Budman007]

Wrong on the lack of weapons.
Right on the offensive line.
Wrong on the speed burners.

1 out of 3 ain't bad, but go watch some more film after you get done in the kitchen.

Spot on the offensive line I saw.

I don't think the secondary will match up good with #88 and #3 though. Wouldn't call Bridgeport speedy but lightning quick. And I agree LB for LH can be key in the game.

Heck, for a mom I thought your evaluation looked pretty good.:D :D

So the they barely beat them and we beat a team that beat them really doesnt mean a whole lot.

You are exactly right. The bottom line is, the Bulls will not be able to keep the LH Offense out of the endzone...question is, will we be able to do the same?
From the looks of it - and I HAVE seen Bridgeport's defense in action - I am quite confident we will do just that.

partly cloudy to sunny with temperatures ranging from lower 60's to upper 30's as the front moves through. Along with wind gusts up to 45mph...sustained winds 25 mph possible.

They look to be the same size as BP's rb. Boyd might be bigger.

I think LH had only won 2 games in 2 years before Vance arrived...maybe 3. Hal Wasson (Coach at South Lake Carrol) was the coach in LH at the time.

Not a bad turn around if you ask me.

Well, call me a spoil sport, I guess, because no matter whose band it is, including Bridgeport's, it aggravates me when they play constantly through the game. Especially if I'm close by, because it drowns out the PA announcers...and is, to me, just a general distraction from the game itself.

Plus some bands deliberately play loudly when the opposing team is running offense right in front of them. I guess all is fair game in that regard.

However, sometimes I think bands mistakenly belive they are doing a game-long concert instead of fulfilling a part of the game activities. I know bandmembers are important, and their parents love to hear them play, but in terms of relative importance, see how many tickets the band would sell if there was no accompanying game.

Anyway, my 2 cents about bands that play all the time.

What do you want them to do? Make as much noise as possible when their offense is on the field? Yea......:hand:


Bands play their loudest when their opposing offense is on the field. That's just how it is, atleast down here.

[pirate4state]

oh boy we've reached the band portion of the thread :eek: :nerd:

[whatdoiknow?]

Our band plays but never at the right time. Half the time they will crank up a tune when our offense has the ball. Our band is small so it doesn't matter much. The Monahans Band was like having an extra weapon. It is not rude or offensive, just makes me jealous we can't do the same. Go to any college game and tell me their band is not a weapon. Stephenville accomplishes the same thing with those damned cans with ball bearings. I hate 'em but you have to admit, they are effective.

It's not something those of us who had kids playing at the time like to talk about. :( We were 2-8 & 1-9, if I remember right, the two years prior to Vance's arrival.

Vance came from San Marcos, where he coached under Bruce Bush. I don't know the exact timeline of when/where, but I know he had previously been at Gregory-Portland, Alice, and some other places. His first coaching job was in Dimmitt, in the mid/late 70's...again, under Bruce Bush. I think I've got all this right; if not, I'm sure I'll hear about it. :D 5-5 his first year here, which was a vast improvement. But, there was much more to the "winning" than just the record.


:crying: :crying: Now, you've done it! LHMom, Come On, Super R and LHExplayer definitely know what I'm talking about with all this.

By the way, he appeared to be quite intelligent (and good looking, too, according to the women around us.)

How many plays do both teams have that they have been "saving" for late in the playoffs?

You know they play I am talking about...you saw it week 1 or 2....or maybe even during a scrimmage....but as we speak the coaches are gameplanning to show each other something new...

any ideas?

hook and ladder?

just my $0.02

I had a son in 8th grade when Coach Vance arrived, he told those kids that if they stuck with the program the would be winners. My son was the first class that had Coach Vance all 4 years where they made it to the semi-finals. That year they had 3 backs that by the end of the 7th game all 3 had over 1000 yards rushing. Needles to say we did not throw a single pass. That drove the fans crazy not passing. I remember parents yelling "just Throw the Ball". My son always told me that when you throw the ball 3 thrings can happen and 2 of them are bad.

The biggest thing that coach Vance brought to the team was showing them respect and teaching the kids to work together and to trust one another. The first year I think that they ran only 5 plays all year, but the same kids that wnet 2-8 and 1-9 went 5-5. The next year they made the play offs and have not missed it since.

From a parents and fan perspective I have never seen Vance chew out a player on the side line during a game, instead he is focused on the game. That does not mean he has not done his share of butt chewing, but that is always done in private away from the stands. I could go on but I think you see what I mean, he has instilled discipline in the players and he has been consistent and they have trusted the system and it works for the Panthers.

I would say LH and BP match up pretty well in the speed department. I was thinking BP had the kind of speed Glimmer or Cuero has. But I just didn’t see it on film.

So you got your hands on the holy grail of game film...the hidden and forbidden...the ones we all hoped were destroyed...The LH vs Cuero 06 matchup. And the LH vs Wim 06 matchup.

If this is true LH is in deep Bullfodder.

Oh, they definitely don't have that speed. But who does? LOL that's what makes the Buckeyes and Gobblers so special every single year.

[OldBison75]

How many games has Liberty Hill played at the Baylor stadium in the playoffs the last few years? I know that they have won most or all there, but I'm just wondering. Does anybody have a take on what ref chapter will be used in this game? I have seen several different chapters this yer and have some definite opinions on which were the best at being in position to make calls and which were more likely to be flag happy. The LH offense is so full of misdirection and quick traps that they seldom get called for holding. It seem even the refs get caught up in trying to find the ball.

If I am not mistaken, LH might have enough wins in the stadium to have a regular winning streak there.

I never said they didn’t have talent, what I said was I did not see anyone with barn burner speed. If they do I didn’t see it when looking at the film. LH doesn’t have barn burner speed either.

Just my opinion.

I completely agree with you.

[OrangeChamps]

Actually was just wanting to add to the number since I picked 2,500, but since I saw the quote about LH being over-rated I'll chime in.

When you beat Giddings, Wylie, and Brownwood (that would be the Brownwood that hung with Stephenville), you are anything but over-rated.

I've heard some information from a little birdie that excites me very much. The Panthers will cruise to 4-0 all time at Floyd Casey Stadium this Saturday. For sure.

No defense AT ALL. The best offense in the state though. It was a barn burner of a game.

does anyone know what southlake carrols win streak got to a few years back?

O.K. I have some catching up to do. Have not read everything. The article in the Llano paper only had to do with the BP game. If you would go back to the the game with LH you would find the same accolades. When asked to compare playing against both, a Jacket player said BP linebackers were good, but, not as good as LH. As a Llano fan and follower I will agree that the talent level of LH and Llano are vastly differant. What you see from one is not what you get from the other. BP, you are going to be in for a shock if you think that because you outplayed Llano for a half you are goingt to beat LH. They are much quicker and faster than Llano. Your LB's and DB's are going to feel the affects of thier cut blocks all night long. I said before that the BP team reminded me of the 05 Wimberley team and they still do to a point. When they are on they do, but the problem is that they are not always ON. The 05 Wimberley team was ALWAYS on. BP you will have to play like that to beat LH. I do not want to hear anymore about injured players this or that. This time of year everybody has them. Llano sat out 3 starters against BP, and when you see how many of Llano,s players go both ways, that is like 4.5 players being out. My prediction is LH 35 BP17 unless BP can play 48 min like the 05 Texans, then I say 56 LH 49 BP. (this is because I know they are not the 05 Texans) I still luv u Wimbo, even thou you keep dis'n us.

They still have the # 1 offense in the Massey Ratings as of this week's rankings.

[BigBully]

Okay, I just finished watching all the tapes again in super-slow motion and HD. Like I said, the Slut-T is easy to defend when several players are giving away information pre-snap on exactly where the play is going. For example, one player blinks an odd number of times for plays running right and an even number of blinks for the play going left. Another player scratches himself if he is going to get it. There are several more. The result is enough information to predict the exact play. Get ready to be pwned Daddy Deez Nutz 11 !!!!

P.S. Can someone give me a Green brothers update?

Am I right that Corbin's injury was a hamstring? If so, that could really be a nuisance. I realize that he intends to start, but was also wondering if it looks like he will be 100% or just trying to make it work. Thanks again for the info.

If you have any doubt about how lightly the Bulls are being taken down in Liberty Hill's neck of the woods, check out the video in the upper right of this web page.

Sportswriters for the Austin American Statesman matter-of-factly refer to the Bridgeport game as a "breather" (exact quote) for Liberty Hill, and they are looking forward to those purple people playing Celina or Giddings the following week.

I know Bridgeport is not being given a lot of credit down there....but "A BREATHER"??

Lange4...your assessment is VERY much in line with what i am thinking. I see a parallel to the 05 Texans and BP...the video's I have seen, the stats, the record, the downright grit that seems to come from the fans...I get this feeling like this just might be the team to do it...the team to become the "up-start" who dethrones a possible dynasty. But... I dunno...maybe it's just me feeling the old tug of the underdog winning it against the odds...

You lay out a pretty convincing case, having seen both teams as you have (God knows you know LH well). I have come back to earth with your honest and what is probably accurate take on the situation...LH is just too much for BP, who is a great contender and a class act...but a BP that is just not quite up to the level you need to be to beat such a powerhouse as LH. And we here in Wimberley AND Llano know better than most what it takes to beat LH.

By the way...please dont think i am dissing you...i am being honest...as of to-date, Llano is at best a mediocre play off team. Which makes Wimberley far less, since we didnt even make the play offs. So yes, I recognize and acknowledge that Llano is, at present, a better team than Wimberley.

I honestly belive that these two teams are even with all aspects considered. And it will be a game to remember as i've said before.
But i really think the winner of this game is team that make the least mistakes. Even if it is just one mistake... that could undoubtably be the difference between winning and losing

[lange4]

If you want to play that game look at the Bridgeport versus Vernon and Bridgeport versus Llano games. Both common opponets

We're kind of lucky...no. We're damn lucky!!! Look up and down the boards. Half of the crap aint even about high school football. Yet us select few...the lucky ones...get to watch our boys go to war again. I don't get any better than this.

We all have similar feelings looking back to July. Could this be the year. Rusty in scrimmages...personal swaps...injuries...people step up...Studs are born. We talk amongst ourselves about who will be the "tough games" and what we will have to do in order to win. We talk after...and sometimes during church about the game. We spend and extra hour at the grocery store breaking down the past and next game.

I know that this amazing ride for the past 2+ years of not losing a game is amazing...every time a friend of mine asks how we did I get to say..."We do what we do...Win" I don't have a thing to do with the outcome...yet I am as proud as I could possibly be with "Our Boys".

I'm sure BP would have never imagined that they would be alive in week 14 undefeated preparing to play one of the best programs in the state. Along the ride school records have been set and shattered.

High School football, especially in a small town, is as pure as it gets. It's Your town...you win or lose as they do. It can become the lifeblood of your community. What has happened in LH and BP this stretch wont be forgotten.

We talk amongst ourselves about who will be the "tough games" and what we will have to do in order to win. We talk after...and sometimes during church about the game. We spend and extra hour at the grocery store breaking down the past and next game.

I know that this amazing ride for the past 2+ years of not losing a game is amazing...every time a friend of mine asks how we did I get to say..."We do what we do...Win" I don't have a thing to do with the outcome...yet I am as proud as I could possibly be with "Our Boys".

I'm sure BP would have never imagined that they would be alive in week 14 undefeated preparing to play one of the best programs in the state. Along the ride school records have been set and shattered.

High School football, especially in a small town, is as pure as it gets. It's Your town...you win or lose as they do. It can become the lifeblood of your community. What has happened in LH and BP this stretch wont be forgotten.

By far one of my favorite posts yet! +1

But i really think the winner of this game is team that make the least mistakes. Even if it is just one mistake... that could undoubtably be the difference between winning and losing

True, Bull_Guy. LH has shown a weakness this year for giving up the big play...but they somehow overcome those mistakes in each case to win the game. I call it the "intangible" affect. In this category, I have to go with LH to capitalize on the intagibles.

They (LH) have developed a "winner's knack" for finding these angles...these single moments in a game....to turn it into a victory...to take their winning streak and make it a weapon... to take a mistake by the opponents and then turn it into a smothering error....This is what winners do....they find a way to win....in any way or fashion possible.

You must either put the game out of reach so these intangibles are negated and are not an issue...or YOU become the ones who take that single moment in a game and turn it to your favor. Are you that team? Are you the next team to take these opportunities and make them your own? Stranger things have happened. Afterall....LH became this type of team in late '06...you could too.

If I were you though, I would hope for putting this game out of reach before LH's momentum and "mystique" has a chance to bite you in the butt. Trust me...it will, if given the chance.

And that's with only 10 games under their belts.

Hmmm...you might have the answer there...which of course, if true, wouldnt reflect well on his wife (who i am sure is a wonderful woman)....but that's just pure speculation.

Nah, I was kidding about his wife. He does come up with several really great posts a season....and keeps me laughing the rest of the time. :D

MOM, I think I have heard most of this thread before. I think it was about a year ago.

Just to let you know though, I think BP will play a better game than Navasota did last year. Still think you guys will win by at least 14, but it will likely be a little tougher. That is, unless you steamroll in the first 20 minutes like you did against us.

Good luck to the Panthers and hope to see you at a meet and greet in the near future.

See Wimbo, you are still condesending to Llano. Granted, we will never have the talent pool to pick from as most schools in our district. Having seen our game with LH and your game with LH, yes, I went there instead of Llano-Canyon Lake. Same travel time. I believed it would be a great game. But let me say this this to the BP people, if you run a spread offense and you do not contain the front 4 of LH, you are in deep trouble. Do not compare LH's front 4 with Llano's. They may not be as big and strong, but they are quicker and faster. They WILL cause havoc in the backfield. #10 will have to be mobile and keep his wits about him. LH matches up with the speed of the Bulls a lot better than than the Jackets did. The speed of the Bulls took a while for the Jackets to adjust to. We just don't see it around here except for a few teams. And I might add that we do not have break-away speed as you well witnessed. The 10 to 15 yard runs that almost broke for Llano, 30% of those will be for substantsuosly more yardage.

I guess I am unsure as to what you are refering to...unless its the comment I made calling Llano a "mediocre play off team". If this is right, then i ask you...what else would you call it? A successful play off team? An above average play off team? A kick-butt play off team?? A perinnial play off team??

I wonder if what you are really saying is that you wish Llano would get the props of a tested and successful play off team of recent times...like LH, Wimberley, etc. (locally speaking of course). I apologize to you if this is the case...there is nothing to back up such a claim.

If I've said it once, I've said it 1000 times. The O-line is the strength of the BP Offense. They are big, strong, athletic, with very good feet and technique. If you're basing the potential success of the LH D on winning at the line of scrimmage against these beasts, you're in a heap of trouble. #10 will pick the LH D apart like they've not seen since Brownwood. The question will be how many stops our D gets against the LH Offense. And I believe the answer will be enough stops to shock the central Texas football world this weeked.

GO BULLS!!!

If you can stop the LH defense at the line, you can win. I have my doubts....but we shall see.

I am not asking for the props of a state championship team. You just make it sound like the only way Llano beats you is when you have a down year We both know that is not the case, granted it is not consistant. by the way, when you mention State Championships from our District, why do you leave out Bandera.

WOW...

There are more posts in just the thread about a road trip to the Region I game of the week... then there are right now in each of the region II and region III game of the week threads.

WOW...

[BigBully]

Just to echo what was said above. If the LH front four must control the line of scrimmage then forget it. I mean this seriously and firmly, LH will NOT handle our offensive line. They are big, strong, athletic, and more importantly very very smart. We can debate all other aspects, but this is fact Liberty Hillbillies!!!

[lange4]

How many people are going to the Stony Point game at the same site. Start time 2pm. Hear Stony Point has a hell of a defense. In the only game they lost this year they still only allowed 75 yards total offense. Yes, and still lost.

Would that make you a BridgePort-O-Potty?

[lange4]

What do you consider controling the line of scrimage.Is it that you do not allow any penatration. Is it that you do not allow any sacks.If the answer is that you do not allow any pressure on the QB, you are going to be SHOCKED.....

I read some stuff in here earlier on the bands. More power to em if they know the right time to play. I just want to know if that was the half-time of this thread.

Did you not read what I said. This fact cannot be debated, so quit trying.

[1st and goal]

I know this will be a great game. I'd pick LH if I was gambling on it.

But mainly, I just wanted to help bust the # of posts on this thread to 1000!:D
