  1. I would rather watch any high school sport over professional sports any day.But what I would rather see is more education going on than competitive sports.Many school districts are laying off teachers or are not renewing contracts due to budget shortfalls.When I see a school district such as Liberty doing this and plan on putting more than 30 kids in one classroom it concerns me.Liberty has 14 high school football coaches and cant even get a winning season,but do you hear about any of these guys getting laid off or not renewed,Nope.Kenneth Skidmore had 6 coaches when he won state for Hull Diasetta in '79,'Pudgy'Richardson had 6 coaches when he won state for Barbers Hill in '76.Why does any 3A or lower need anymore coaches than 6 ? We need certified teachers that can teach more than football and health.If you cant cut your budget good enough to keep your educators then you should cut back on sports.I am not singling out Liberty and football,but in most cases the football programs get the majority of the funding. Because of Title 9 the boys and the girls programs are to be equal in the funding.Many say that the extra money for the boys programs comes from the boosters and what have ya, Bull!!!You know as well as I do thats not the case,and if you believe that you are sadly misinformed.PARENTS you need to be aware that your childs education may suffer because an overzealous sports program.I know several coaches that work their tales off that do indeed teach more than health or PE,But my point is that we shouldnt allow sports to supersede education.
  2. Moved to the Hill many moons ago,there has been a long list of great running backs,Skinny Whitener,Bobby Steck,Beaver Trousdale,Darren Ford,Troy Hanson,Kevin Bradford just to name a few but these were my most remember able.

  4. Ive used a semi auto Remington 30-06 for years,I have had to replace the scope several times,and have lost several deer ive wounded or missed due to the inaccuracy of the gun.Last year I bought a Mossberg bolt action and put a Bushnell Bushmaster scope on it,I use Remington Coreloc 30-06 150 grain ammo,Im 8 for 8 on the deer, one shot I hit a doe in the eye at 230 yards,This set up is one i will not change for a while.in an additional note: FACT(from North American Hunter Magazine) the 30-30 has killed more deer than any other caliber.
  5. under-rated? heck no,but they are talented,to bad they dont have the proper training and coaching to improve.Maybe they could transfer to Dayton or Barbers Hill,oops maybe not Barbers Hill.
  6. WOS by 40 to be consevative.I havent gotten but one wrong all year and I know this is gonna be a slaughter.
  7. Little pimple,you havent got a clue,when you get kids of your own then someday you'll understand.
  8. When someone does people(not just one person)wrong,it eventually catches up to them.The real Deals time is up.This woopin' hes getting tonight is gonna repeat itsself against WOS.
  9. Being conservative,Coldspring by 30,Havent seen Liberty improving any,only playing less talented teams.Ive said it once,Ill say it again,Liberty has some good talent but thier coach is lacking in more ways than just coaching.Dont know if Coldspring will run up the score but pay backs a %$&^%.
  10. Im not from Livingston or Barbers Hill,I just like Vball, BH in 4.
  11. The most positive comment I could make is that Liberty needs a new AD,any thing less would be unacceptable.As far as the kids are concerned,the've done a great job and deserve the playoffs,the coach doesnt.
  12. Playoffs look set barring any disqualifications,Tarkington,Huffman,and Liberty will go. Congradulations to them.
  13. Seen one in the Kenefick area a couple of years ago and this one was also black!!
