i have satelite and can't watch sports overtime (grumbles) :beg:

Football is a contact sport and can get dangerous at time. People get hit hard. And all the fans want their team to see a big hit.. It gets the momentum flowing.. I am one of those people who like to see those hits happen, i love it when someone gets their bell rang. However at tonite's game I got a rude awakening. Those hits, while fun to watch, can be extremely dangerous. But the worst thing to watch is a cheap shot. I can't stand it when anyone lays a cheap shot on someone.. Tonight I saw my little brother become a victem of a cheap shot, and i almost saw his dreams of playing football at the next level go down the drain.. and it broke my heart to watch him on the way to the hospital.. He was drilled in the back about a second or two after the whistle, and he crushed a muscle under his collar bone.. The doctor said he might be able to play next week but they have to check him out again..
Now you guys might say something like if ya can't take it don't play. well let me be the first to say that he can take more hits than almost anyone i know.. But for all you players out there, and parents of players, you need to know that cheap shots are a chicken's way of hitting.. I know sometimes people get caught up in the moment or whatever, but sometimes it is completely uncalled for.. and injuries can occur, serious injuries... So i want to tell all players out there to just keep it under control.. Cause how would you feel if someone came in behind you and busted your guts out, just because he was pissed off..

Hard fought win for BC.. Congrats.

This one is going to be a battle. Obviously the winner of this game will win the district and have a shot at hosting Pikeville or Paintsville in the regional 4 class A championship.

Both teams are solid and pretty evenly matched, and I dont want to take anything away from either team. I wish them both the best of luck. However, I give Somerset the slight advantage in this game since its at Somerset.

Somerset 44
Lynn Camp 43

I put a poll on here too so don't forget to vote.

This is one that a lot of people have been waiting for. If Ashland wins, they lock up a district championship. If Johnson Central wins and defeats Mason County, they will lock up the district championship.

Should be an incredible game at Historic Putnam Stadium this coming Friday. It will also be JFL night and Senior Night for the Tomcats. I normally reserve my picks for later in the week but I'm ready for this one tonight.

Ashland 28
Johnson 21

Hazard had it handed to them tonight down in Paintsville. Hazard didnt have an answer for the Tigers running attack. Paintsville also was completly able to shut down Olinger and Hazards Spread offensive attack in the second half.

Pikeville has a solid defense as well. Maybe even moreso than the Tigers. However, I dont know if Pikevilles running game is quite as strong as the tigers. With that said. I think Pikeville will roll

Pikeville 40 :rock:
Hazard 7 Olinger will connect for at least one long.

Final

Good win for Evarts.

Another great one. Congras to Woodford County.
