This is a Pikeville thread so I’ll keep it at a minimum with the JC/Paintsville talk. There’s about 10 reasons this game isn’t played and “scared” isn’t one of them. Paintsville played freaking Fredrick Douglas a few years back.

That's not really a very good argument.   Painstville played Freddy 2018, in their second year of existence.  The previous season Freddy was good, but they had been blown out by eventual 2A champion Danville 36-0 and were twice beaten soundly by Scott County.  Yes, they won their other games, but they had a few other somewhat close games.  So basically they were not the Freddy of today.  And yes, they played Freddy, but they were absolutely pounded 57-7.  I noticed they haven't played Freddy since.  If they had, maybe your argument might have been sound.

As far as Pikeville vs LCA, I hope Pikeville goes down to Lexington and pounds LCA.   Maybe they will.  Props to them for playing the game.  They could have taken the easy way out and cancelling the game.  It's obvious they are intimidated, and they are going down there to win the game.  Props to them as well for continuing to play their in county rival all those years when their rival was dominating year in and year out.  It's good to see Pikeville starting to get wins in that rivalry again.

It’s an excellent argument. You are just a hater for whatever reason. Anytime a 1A schools schedules a 6A school it’s a tall task outside of some of the terrible bottom feeders in 6A.  Paintsville’s schedule this year was being highly praised by many on here (even the most vocal of critics) when the season started. It is a very tough schedule for a small 1A school.

So, because I stated your argument wasn't very good I am a hater?  Why hasn't Paintsville played Douglass since the blowout.  Rescheduling them would prove they were not scared.  Have they tried to play them again?   Did Douglass think another game against Paintsville would be a waste because they provided little competition?  I am honestly curious.

It would be pointless for both parties. Is that really hard to understand?
And yes, everyone on here knows that if you disagree with me, you are a hater! Haha

Paintsville plays a patty cake schedule every year. The ultimate sissy thing of the decade was when Paintsville canceled the LCA game last year just to reschedule
