Future of Burkeville

Not sure what you're saying...there's 12 Seniors this year?  If so, trouble next year.  There's 12 Seniors expected for next year?  Not bad! 
I'm also wondering where Bville came up with 12 Senior Football players.

It was a joke as in they actually had 12 people in there senior class??

Maybe some 6 man football is in Burkeville's future

Just need to have less than 100 kids in high school.  They have everything else they need.

I really hate that the numbers are so low in Bville.  They have a rich history in football and I was really looking for things to turn around with the return of Harper last year.  If their numbers are that low and they are graduating 12 senior starters...it will be hard for the Stangs to turn it around any time soon.

If thay go to 6man would thay be with Chester?
[/quote]

Logic, geography, and likeness would say yes. Why wouldnt they be with Chester? However, were talking about the UIL. i.e. Livingston in 204A. So not telling what would happen.

Well, while the talk of 6 man is interesting (I know, I started it), I don't think that we will see Burkeville dropping from the 11 man ranks.  Yes, they may be losing a lot of seniors, but I am sure that the junior class does possess some males and like many times at 1A schools, young men from all grades will be counted on to continue.

IF they do decide to go the 6 man route, it would NOT be the first time that Burkeville was in the 6 man ranks.  From 1943-1969, Burkeville competed in six man football.

itd be a sad day when we dropped down to 6 man football..
[/quote]

Sadder to drop program all together.  Should always consider those remaining.  I will say again...6man is still competitive no matter what you've been taught to believe.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
