[BB Blackcat]

First, I don't think any real football fan would have came away from this game very impressed with either team. It was not a very good football game...period. Pikeville is fairly solid up front but not like you say. Every yard they get is because the Honakers and Harmon are very good athletes. And to say they have "dominated" anyone this season is a joke. Come on they had only scored once before tonight...how is that domination for an O-line. Pikeville will improve because they are well coached and they will win their district but they have a looooooong way to go before they can "dominate" anyone. And does anyone know what has happened to P-burg over the last few years. They play with no fire, they are in terrible shape, the kids don't play hard, and even the P-burg fans these days don't get into the game at all? Does anyone care at P-burg anymore?

I've been wrestling with myself whether to post something. I'll try to put my thoughts into words.

I've been a die hard blackcat fan for a few years. I see an obvious slip in our school's attitude and desire to be the best. I see the fans give up on the team too fast and I saw some of them throwing things at the Pikeville fans. I see many guys in the stand who look made to play the game, but don't because they dislike the coach. I saw some of our players berating each other because of mistakes instead of encouraging each other. You will never build a good team with so much drama going on. Prestonsburg needs a coach who wants to build a good team from the inside out. We need to encourage our own guys to play, we need to make blackcat football a way of life, not something to be dreaded and feared by our own players. I remember the team that went to state, how they helped each other through tragedy and triumph. I wish I could see that attitude again!
