DGN 13 Fenwick 10 final

It took me only 1 time watching the clip to see #2 does the gun brandishing while the ref is 5 feet away staring right at him. You can clearly see him grab the waistband and raise. And if there was any doubt that #2 is or isn’t brandishing a gun, you can see #26 (there is no #22) with his back turned to the ref (facing the camera) also brandishing the gun.

Pretty cut and dry.

PI flag = bad
Taunting call = good.
Ref is looking directly at #2 when the flag was thrown. I think you are correct, 22 got caught on camera….
YES I mixed up my numbers and wrote that as #22 (should have been #26) but that was probably obvious and you knew that after seeing there was no #22.

Corrected

I had to watch that clip 40-50 times before the whole thing kinda made sense.

In the clip we can only see #26 doing the gun thing and Ref probably could not see it, and was very fast on the flag.

The only way it made sense was if #2 was also doing the gun thing (away from our camera view), which gives the Ref a perfect view.

Does that sound right? That's the best my old eyes can come up with.

Maine South @ Loyola

This should be a good one!

My first year when we moved to Park Ridge was 2016 when we beat Loyola for our last title.

Took my 6 y/o to the game yesterday and the Hawks offense was just rolling. I know that Loyola is a different level but the offense looks so dangerous with Purcell leading. The first TD toss was a beauty but overthrew just a few deep balls later in the game.

One game at a time but this should be a good one. I'm biased towards the Hawks but I don't see this one being a 15 point game.

Happy Veterans Day ...

First:
Thank you to all the Veterans.


Second:
Hopefully that's not directed at me, MC63, but I can't think of another poster with 'Kevin' in their name.

While it would be a great honor to be considered a Vet, I am not a Veteran.

I may have confused you in the past with my history in the Nuclear Industry. 36+ years as a Nuclear Operator, and worked with many Navy Nuc's.

Fresh out of high school, right after my 19th birthday until just before my 56th birthday when I retired, partially for medical reasons.
The man I'm thinking about - whom I believe is named Kevin -- is an SR grad who become attached to the Montini program later (as a dad or grand dad, i believe). He served in the USMC.

He hasn't posted lately, but he' s well respected on the board.

St Francis @ Sycamore

SF came out very flat, got down I believe 14-0 and then had the mentioned debacle at the end. No disrespect at all to either PC or Rita (or DePaul Prep) but it seemed like SF was sleepwalking a bit from after Loyola up until Nazareth.

It will be interesting to see if they can bring their “A” game against Sycamore.
They will, they have to.

Anyone have any insight as to why SF lost to PC?

Maine South @ Loyola

I’m excited for the latest chapter in the rivalry. I’m not on the inside at all, but it seemed to me that Maine South was the bar against which LA measured itself as it was building its program to the current state. Even with some nice LA wins in the interim, the final 5 minutes of the 2010 quarters will haunt me to my grave.

Calpreps says LA by 15. I don’t buy it as I think the MS quarterback can do some damage against the LA defense. Could be a high scoring affair. I think it’s a pick ‘em.

Higher seeds should get the home game.

I like the idea of giving the higher seeded teams the ability to defer their home game in round 1. I’m sure the top-seeded teams would always exercise this option to almost guarantee a home semi-final game.
I totally agree. That’s the best answer I have heard when discussing why a higher seed should have home field. I like this concept it gives the higher seed the option. If they choose to play at home with the first round or two well they can’t complain about having to travel in the later rounds. Based on this it’s assumed that the higher seed only has a certain number of games they can host. This would need to be clarified but I like your idea tigerforflyers.

Higher seeds should get the home game.

1-32 is a must, but I’ll give you a possible scenario that I find highly questionable. IF LF were to be Geneva at home this week, and if CG takes care of business vs BN, the semi final would be at LF. Therefore the lower ranked team would host both the Quarters and Semis.
