Bob Seger Wrote:That's the biggest boat load of crap I've ever heard. You are really full of it tonight...Playing at Ashland didn't seem to hinder Arliss Beach from playing at UK and then for the Green Bay Packers, did it?....Neither did it hurt Al Baker (Baker's dad), playing at Trigg Co., hinder him from playing at UK....Playing at Highlands sure didn't help Patrick Towels become a star in the SEC did it?.Even when his grandfather was a hall of fame baseball player and one of the most powerful men in Congress....He still cant get playing tme!!!..Playing at Highlands sure didn't help Austin Collinsworth to become a full fleged superstar at Notre dame either, did it? Being the son of Chris Collinsworth probably carried more weight than playing at FTH. College coaches know what they see , when they see it...It's like in baseball, if you're good enough they will find you no matter where you play....Anybody ever hear of Don Gullett? He played for teeny McKell (just down the road from Ashland), and made it to the World Series, how many times? Cy Young award winner Brandon Webb didn't seem to let him playing high school baseball at inferior Ashland Paul Blazer stop him from becoming the most dominant pitcher of his era, did it? Aaron Pettrey from Raceland played at Ohio State and the Bengals...Playing for Belfry didn't stop David Jones from going to UK either, did it?....Playing at Leslie Co. didn't hinder Tim Couch from playing at UK and being the #1 overall pick in the NFL draft, did it? Even though he is just a sophomore, Baker I am sure, is on the radar of many many colleges. People know who he is.
The one thing that that massive ego of yours has yet to figure out while performing your propaganda routine here, is that while playing at Ashland, it means that Baker will get to play against the best....That is Highlands, isn't it? That outta bring all the college coaches in the entire country out, shouldn't it?....lol
If you want to play the shock jock roll and try to get a rise out of everybody, go right ahead, but don't start rambling on with this line of BS, because you clearly don't have a clue as to what you are talking about, and it's not hard to figure out either.. Your line of BS only goes so far.
Wow. You tend to deal in ancient history. You forgot Jay Rhodemyre who played for UK after playing for Ashland in the 1940s and Ellis Johnson and the Phipps boys who played there in the 1920s and 1930s. On the other hand, Beach never actually played for the Packers and, though a good pitcher, Webb was hardly the "most dominant pitcher of his era". Of course, it is a shame that his "era" was so brief because of his arm injury.
It wasn't my intention to get your bowels in an uproar. Your little history lesson was interesting and I feel sure you didn't miss many from the east even including Gullett who finished at McKell about forty years ago. How about Johnny Lemaster, the old shortstop from Paintsville? You left him out. And, why not include Drew Hall from Ashland, a relief pitcher who was actually drafted by the Cubs ahead of Greg Maddux? I guess I can provide your argument better than can you.
But, your tirade dpesn't change the fact that northern Kentucky is a far better springboard to real athletic success than is eastern Kentucky.
