[Truth]

You can never be too cautious when you are dealing with the safety of children and their families. The parking lot was covered with about an inch or so of snow but I'll bet it was long ago removed with church services in progress this morning. In other words, the weather conditions were, to me, an excuse rather than a reason. To reschedule would be nonproductive for both.

Honestly, I can see no benefit to either team in playing the game. The only intrigue would be just how bad Bradley wants to beat Rose Hill- 30, 40, 50, etc. To many Kittenites, the more the better since some still have a need for an exorcism to erase the memories of Rose Hill's trips to Bowling Green. And, in the process, games such as this one often produce unnecessary injuries. As for Rose Hill, there wouldn't be much of a crowd, even if the boys play, so no money would be made from the event. I never thought it was prudent to be humiliated just for a gate but I know some disagree.

Although this is a district game, the precedent for not playing is established. As some should recall, both Ashland and its "me too" buddy, Boyd County, refused to schedule the Rose Hill boys during the 2002-2003 season choosing instead to take two district losses. And, to be fair, that probably wasn't a bad decision.

Since the Rose Hill boys have been placed in Purgatory by KHSAA, there is nothing to be gained by either team in playing those two games.
