Grimsley won. I turned the game off early in the 4th.. The refs made it unwatchable. Flags every play with five minute ref conferences to discuss all of them. The 3rd quarter took 53 minutes. HS quarters are 12 minutes. That was a three and a half hour football game that didn't go into OT with 12 minute quarters. That's basically like the first three quarters if an NFL game taking three and a half hours. Absurd. Just tell those refs their services won't be needed going forward.
Yeah, I think it's only been there for a little over 10 years or something. I graduated HS in 2000 so there's a poo ton of schools that I'm like "who???"
Yeah, there were only 4 divisions when I was in HS. I honestly like it. Gives more teams and more kids and towns a chance to compete for championships.
I love ball. Watching other people compete in athletics is kinda weird, period if we're being completely honest. If anything, it might be weirder watching adults making millions to play kids' games.
I should've posted this earlier but all the NC high school state championship football games are being streamed on YouTube. Watauga just beat Middle Creek for the 6A championship. Hough in Cornelius won the 8A game last night. Next up at 8 is the 7A game featuring Grimsley which is the #12 ranked team in the nation with the #1 QB recruit in the country.
Was shocked to see that Cousins stat line. 300+ yards and 3 TDs with 0 INTs? Damn good game, right. Except I was only half ass watching and it seemed like every time I looked up he was panicking and throwing the ball in the dirt like a guy who'd give anything not to get hit.
Historically? The Saints. Recently? Meh... no one has been particularly relevant enough or despicable enough to hate and we've been looking at mock drafts in October generally so...
