BUT have you ever thought about it like this??
Yes, Pikeville comes in on Saturday mornings , they lift weights all the time year around, sometimes in an overheated weightroom, they spend every night at that field until after 8:30 or 9:00, they stay after school on gameday until gametime, they watch film & have meetings then watch more film and have more meetings. They are FORCED to live, eat, and sleep football!!!!!!!

Have you ever wondered that the reason for the frequent "letdowns" just might possibly be because the Pikeville Football team is physically and mentally exausted!! They are 16, 17, and 18 year old kids, they need a life too!! I am not making this up.....just ask some of them!!! Some of them might be too scared to admit it but MOST of the players will tell you the truth!! Although they were very hurt after the game....deep down they are relieved.....not to be eliminated but to be FREE!!!!

Im more than sure the kids that didn't want to do this would have quit, alot of this stuff the players acutally asked to do so they could be better prepared for the season and such
