    Ohio Semifinals

    Whilst I don't have a strong opinion, I do enjoy reading both sides of the blowout/ranking/classification threads. This seemed a bit wild to me though - not sure if Ohio does this every year...

    Power rankings/reseeding

    While I gleaned some of the favorites in various classes (mostly from reading various threads), wondering if anyone that's a bit more in-tune (and has time on their hands) to some/all classes would want to use "power rankings" or re-seed each class 1-8. Just for fun, but would be interested in...

    Note to Gene K

    Election Day I worked as a judge for the first time - my favorite coworker was a Navy vet who served during Vietnam and had kidney replacement a month ago. Thanks to Jesse and all those who served and are serving now.

    Kankakee's Parent Expectations

    Futball vs football, but great story on this subject. A tony suburb's travel soccer team had a strict "no questioning" policy on which team a player was placed on following tryouts. After teams were announced one mom followed the coach from practice to his car, asking why her son was on the "B"...

    Like, Hello ....

    Just finished reading this article - interesting that with declining numbers at the youth/high school level that DI and FCS have added teams over the past decade.

    WSS wk8

    GW by 14. Is the general consensus that WSG is having a down year? I'm wondering how GW and Willowbrook would match up this season. Strictly hypothetical of course as seems they will slot in 8A and 7A - I'm familiar with GW, not as much so with Wbrook. Could Wbrook hang with GW this season?

    The CCL/ESCC Prognostication Thread - Week VII

    Not sure how the score for a forfeit gets recorded but St Joe’s +56 seems a good call as they forfeited

    What is the origin of your handle?

    Lived in Glen Ellyn for about 25 years, sent kids to Montini. After Stoned Lizard's response I feel rather boring ;)

    Brother Rice (MI) coach

    No ice baths

    Oh I'm a private school guy, but figure in the off-season most threads gravitate towards that discussion, so might as well mention it early ;)

    No ice baths

    Not for this title winning coach - presumably it has something to do with him being the coach of a private school. https://deadspin.com/title-winning-high-school-football-coach-freaks-out-on-1830660855

    Running Clock......in Basketball ?!?!

    A ref at a recent game explained the logic - typically the hard fouls and chippiness are more likely in blowouts so the idea is this may help with that. We will see.

    Inadvertent whistle

    Montini intercepted a tipped pass early in the game vs St. Rita - the defensive player had a clear shot at a pick 6. The whistle was blown and the signal was made that it was an incomplete pass. After a conference I expected one of the following from the officials. 1. Interception but the ball...

    THE Chicago Catholic League Thread - 2018 - Week Five

    Typically I glance at these but have very little idea about the references. Feeling inspired by your research, however, I've now deduced St. Liz is picking both Hope and Brother Rice - the rest will require much more research on my part. And yes, I find them amusing (even if i'm easily confused).
