Does anyone else watch old games(HIGH SCHOOL) on tape?

~~NEWARKCATHOLICFAN~~ · 01-20-2009, 12:29 PM

I am watching my 2nd game of the day right now.
Appalachia (Va) at Shelby Valley(Ky)

I have (guessing) a couple of hundred of games on tape or on disc that I pull out during the off season.

I watch a few.

I have the 05 Russell/Belfry game on tape somewhere that I have watched a few times. Also the 05 AA State Championship. Mainly because I had a son that played in those games.

I also have the 03 Belfry/ E-Town and 04 Belfry/OC games that a Belfry fan was kind enough to send to me.

My husband has a tape of his high school championship game against Mayfield when they lost by one touchdown (I think). What is funny is that he watches it like the outcome is going to be different each time. (It isn't)

When I played, they drew pictures on the sides of walls to record our games Big Grin

I watch them all the time. I have highlight tapes that date back to '98. I also have a few seasons that date back to the 60's and 70's.

I am trying to get alot of our old squad together and round up all the tape and paper clips. I can't wait til we all get together and see how many mistakes we made and so on.

I usually watch all of my old games and highlight tapes. Also, one game that I have yet to see and have been trying to get a copy of (can't seem to find anyone with it) is the '78 Paintsville/Beechwood state-semi finals when Paintsville won 7-0.

Have you tried contacting the schools to see if they have it?

I have and a few people that have watched it on tape...it's like a mystery or a scavenger hunt to try and find it.

~~NEWARKCATHOLICFAN~~ · 01-20-2009, 07:32 PM

Good luck in your search.

**FBALL** · 01-20-2009, 11:57 PM

I'll pull out the tapes of some of the games I played in when I was in school just to see what I looked like when I was in shape.

KYstraydog · 01-21-2009, 04:58 PM

I am in the process of getting some from a friend or two but let me see.....Longsnapping the ball over punters head only to see Boyd Co. recover it in the end zone....oh yea have you ever seen two pulling guards pull into each other? That was classic or a punter catch his own punt. I think I could make a blooper tape. There were good plays to I would like to see but it's the funny ones I would like to see.

A few years ago a couple of buddies of mine ran across some reel-to-reels from the late 70's/early 80's. We got the reel-to-reel running and watched games that had been taped over 3 decades ago. It was awesome.

barrel · 01-26-2009, 09:55 PM

I watch the few I have. I would like to get copies of games though. If anyone has games they are willing to copy I would be willing to workout a deal. Just give me a PM

It must be nice to have all them games on type. Kentucky need to start up that 7 man football season up.... That way we don't have to sit around 8 months until the season start again..... Everone said there is basketball and stuff, but the people like me that hate them just sit around until the next season to start...

I am always asking those who have a station that replays the games to record them for me.I have one great person who does this every season. I had a person that recorded all of the games from the owensboro area send me games one season and that was awesome.

I am always willing to record games from Ohio in exchange or work something out.
