[Old School Hound]

I think you know what a premium I put on exhibiting class and sportsmanship. The least couple of days, I have been thinking about the Boyle faithful on here. I don't know all the Boyle fans on here but I am aware of Jack Lambert,  Reb , Know1 , Hatz, and several others that I can't recall off the top of my head. I have been so impressed with the class showed by these people. They had, imo, the best team in the state this season, BY FAR. They went to Cleveland and demolished a nationally ranked team. How impressive was that!!!! It was a foregone conclusion , in my mind, that they would plow  through the playoffs, encountering very little resistance , on their way to their fifth straight title.

However, it was one of those nights last Friday night, a freak upset by an inferior team. Boyle would win by 35+ if they played a rematch. It was Appy State -Michigan all over again. Boyle came up just a yard short, on a questionable call at the goal line. How much tougher, and more disheartening, can it get than that for fans of the far superior team?   And yet, they didn't rant and rave, make excuses, call for firings,  or excoriate referees. They took the loss the same way they absorb their many wins--- with class and grace.  I don't know anything about the fanbase, at-large, but the Boyle fans on here are SIMPLY THE BEST !!!  Take a bow, folks.

2024 was the year I became a Boyle County fan, and the folks on here was a big reason why. Your wonderful team was, AND IS , the best KY team in 2024, you know it, and I know it.   This is my long distance dedication to all of you classy and honorable Rebel fans on here and your terrific football team. 

Please continue with the exact combination and dosage of meds it took for you to type this post. Happy Thanksgiving OSH.

Thanks, Jet. I love you. The meds have been prescribed and picked up. The medical team is on call late Friday night if I need them. I'm hoping a meltdown isn't necessary.  I've been very sick the last couple of days. Hope I feel better by game time.

We’re Honored to have you as a long distance Boyle County fan Old School!!!


Old school if I had a Corbin shirt I would wear it tomorrow to support the Red Hounds, Corbin is my pick to win the 4A State Championship this year, Go Hounds!!!

Thankyou, Jack. This year made made Boyle fan. It was so cool seeing one of our own go to northern Ohio and lay waste to a Buckeye power. We just don't see that very often. I know you and I were concerned that maybe Boyle shouldn't scheduled that opponent. We were wrong. Haddix' boys laid a whippin' on them.  If I could get you a Redhound shirt in time for the game tomorrow, I would drive it over to you. Unfortunately, I am down with some kind of virus or infection and will probably be hanging around here tomorrow. But, I know our boys appreciate the support of Boyle fans like yourself, know1, BEChargers, Hatz, and others. Our teams really do have a connection through Haddix and our fans who support him and Boyle County. I could literally name a dozen Corbin people off the top of my head who have attended Boyle football games to root on Haddix and the Rebels. And there's many more that follow the Rebels from here and root for them.

We also love Corbin-Boyle football games when they happen(although they usually don't go our way) because they are simply the best, most skillfully played and exciting affairs, among some of the best talent in the state. That game over there last year was so special because it pitted the two best teams in the entire state on the field at the same time. How often do we get see that here in our little neck of the woods? The eyes of the whole state were focused on that game, for the very reason that everyone knew these were the state's best playing for a state title on that night. Still gives me chills!!!
