So forth place in district is acceptable to you . If this is your standard then I respect your opinion. It just is not my standard. If this is the standard for the players and coaches then this is probably all they will ever be.
I am a PN-G grad and it wasn’t the standard when I attended.

I agree...control the ball, burn the clock, and slow the game to a crawl.  The Indians will need a lot of breaks, some luck, and an error-free game.  If not, FBM may score 70 in the first half alone.  Bad match-up for the Indians.  Here's to PN-G pulling off a shocker.  Go Indians.  Peace.

PNG needs to slow the game way down and limit FBM’s possessions.  A few good breaks go their way and you never know,

I tried to post a portion of Judge Brann's Memorandum Opinion.  Apparently, I was not successful.  Sorry about that snafu.  The Memorandum Opinion and appellate opinion from the Third Circuit are not hard to find.  I bet the savvy regular posters on this message board can find them.  I'm not savvy enough to post the document.  I'll have to get my kids to help me.  They're iPad gurus and computer experts.  Ol' Dad is still reading hardcover/paperback books and using paper and pencil to write.
Peace.

Ned #10 is an outstanding RB.  Vision, tough runner, quickness, and speed.  He is not going down on first contact or with arm tackles.  When Ned loaded up and ran on the right side, good things happened.  Ned has some meat on the OL and they can move the line of scrimmage.   When #10 cuts it back, he can take it to the house in a hurry.  PN-G got a TO and had a shot at the end for the W.  As usual, the last team with the ball wins.  Great HS football game.  It  could have gone either way.  Not sure why anyone would be down on PN-G or Ned.  We both have issues, but who doesn't?  The PN-G defense is not the best, but our kids are coachable and playing hard.  I'll take it.  Ned can correct some things and move on to the next game.  I feel like other teams need to worry about PN-G and Ned.  The Indians and Dogs will have opportunities to grab a W in each and every game, Barbers Hill and Crosby included.  In each game, if things break right, if some variables go our way, then PN-G will have its shot to get a W...same for Ned.  No reason for either team to hang its head or throw in the towel.  Lots of football left in district.  15 - 18 year old kids make mistakes.  It happens.  Get up and go play.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Great HS football game by both teams.  As usual, it came down to a handful of plays.  Can't say enough great things about Blake Bost slinging the ball around the yard and leading his team to overcome a 14-0 deficit.  PN-G outscoring Ned 22-7 is not because of the referees.  The PN-G TE made the catch of a lifetime.  Good job.  Congrats to all of the kids for playing your ass off and giving the fans a great game.  Tip of the cap to Ned, nice field and terrific RB #10.  Glad PN-G grabbed a TO and made some plays to get a W.  Now, fist bump to the Ned fans, back to social distancing, and see you next year.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Louis Farrakhan ring a bell?  That clown preaches hate and racism.  He preaches black superiority over whites and everyone else.  99.99% of African-Americans do not agree with Farrakhan.  He is an extremist.  Educated people of all races and ethnicities can see through the extremists regardless of color.
Racism exists from all sides...white, black, and brown.  As a society, we have made some progress, but we have a long ways to go.
Everyone do your own small part for fairness and equality and we will get there.  Help one another and stop tearing each other down.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Joseph and Mary did not seek asylum in Bethlehem.  They went to Bethlehem per a decree of Caesar Augustus.  They had to travel to Bethlehem and register for a census.  Perhaps your question is why did Joseph, Mary, and Jesus flee to Egypt after the birth of Jesus?  According to the Bible, an angel appeared to Joseph and told him to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt to escape orders from Herod to kill all of the male infants in Judea.  I have no idea if Joseph, Mary, and Jesus entered Egypt legally, illegally, or if it mattered.  I do not know if Egypt had border protections or policies to secure its borders.  I do know that Joseph, Mary, and Jesus left Egypt and returned to Judea (Nazareth) after Herod died.  Will all of the undocumented visitors to the USA be leaving anytime soon?  Just asking for a friend.
Regarding the immigration issues facing the USA, I lean toward finding a path to citizenship for those that are here and enforcing border policies going forward.  We cannot be a society with open borders.  Too many variables regarding national security, economic stability, and sustaining the many different cultures that are vibrant in the USA.  I am not an advocate for dividing families or putting mothers and babies in jail.  Let's find a common sense way for creating a path to citizenship for those that are here, and then enforcing our borders in a sensible, lawful, and peaceable manner.
Taking out the Iranian commando terrorist was a good thing.  Iran understands one thing - force.
Peace.

Similar to being to the tallest midget.
Go Indians...Go Coogs...Peace.

Why did Herman give the double rods to LHN?  Bad joke?  I'm guessing that is not how the BMDs at UT-A want the HC to represent the flagship university.  Unless he beats OU, gets double digit wins, and secures a NY6 bowl game, I see Texas parting ways with him.  Most of the Texas Exes that I know want to give Herman the double rods.  At least he gives the fans something to talk about.
Go Coogs!  Go Indians!  Peace.

Ned in an upset.  Regardless if it 2-0, 7-6, 35-34, or 72-69, Ned pulls the upset.  As I said with PN-G, go line up and play.  What do you have to lose?  Throw the ball around, get the ball to your best play makers, and let it rip.  On defense, get in position, and get as many of your friends to the football as possible.  Just to be sure, ask Delbert Spell to help out.  As far back as I can remember, if Coach Spell called the shots, the Ned defense always played bigger, faster, and better than they actually were personnel-wise.  Even if Ned didn't win, they had a shot.  Just ask him for 3 or 4 hours on the day of the game.
It pains me to type this, but my family relative says I have to do it for good karma, and if I don't do it, that Thanksgiving turkey may taste different because it is her year to host, so, with my eyes closed, I'll type, Go Dogs.  Peace.
Go Indians.  Peace 2x.  🙂 

Coach Faircloth has 5 DC (when including outright and shared): 2009, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018.  Next year, he should have the most all-time wins as HC at PN-G.  He needs a state championship to be in the conversation with Doug Ethridge.  Even then, I would still take Coach Ethridge as the all-time Chief at PN-G.  That said, I'm proud of what Coach Faircloth has accomplished at PN-G.  Good man, he runs a clean program, and he uses his system to put our kids in position to compete and win a lot of games.  Wish list - continue the streak vs. Ned and collect some hardware at the state level.  If it happens, great.  If not, the world will keep turning and life goes on.  It's high school football.
Vs FBM - go play the game.  Play hard, play as fast as you can, and compete for 48 minutes.  Line up correctly and get as many defenders to the ball as fast as you can.  When the Indians have the football, march down the field, and score touchdowns.  No one will beat FBM kicking FGs.  Take a few gambles.  What do you have to lose?  FBM will bust big plays.  They are a threat to win it all.  Regroup, play hard, and give it your best shot.  If you do that, nothing to hang your head about.  Tall task vs. FBM.  It could be similar to last year 53-14 or the Indians could get a ton of breaks and shock the world.  56-55 Indians...maybe I'm crazy and blinded by a purple haze.
Go Indians.  Peace.
 

That PN-G defense is good enough to beat VHS year in and year out.  It easily passes the eye test...the Indians have a better defense this year, but BH made the plays when they had to make them.  Tip of the cap to them.  Maybe VHS will learn to do that one year.  Good game between PN-G and BH.  Impressed with the QB @ BH.  Smart play maker and tough to get to before he distributes the ball.  BH is the best team in the district.  Props to the Eagles.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Enrollment numbers, transfers, and coaching.
It is amazing that year after year, Katy ends up with an OL standing 6'4" - 6'6" and weighing 275 lbs. - 300 lbs.  Year in and year out, Katy seems to find a RB or two that can play D1 football.  The move-in program at Katy is second to none.  NS is similar.  My sister-in-law teaches at NS.  Enrollment of 4,000+ kids and then the Mustangs sprinkle in 1 or 2 move-ins and transfers.  Add good coaching to those ingredients and voila, you have a perennial top-notch program.  Those programs have resources.  They have athletes, money, facilities, solid coaching, and a commitment to staying on top.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Coach Faircloth has onions...and they are made of brass.
Go Indians.  Peace.

That took onions by Fairchief.
