Class 6A East St Louis leads PR 50-7 start 4q

Really surprised that ESL, leading 50-7 in the 4th quarter, choses to leave their starters in on offense and defense and run up the score. Real classy move. Why not let your 2nd string get in a few snaps in the title game? They work hard in practice too. Hard to root for teams that do this.
 
Looks like Prairie Ridge does not get to beat up on a multiplied AND success-factored SHG (like they did in 2016) every title game, do they?
Looks like PR doesn’t have the advantage of recruiting or a 30 mile boundary either. Quit your wining about how bad the privates have it with the success factor. Looks like they’re doin pretty well in spite of it.

Wining & dining.

Interesting. The ESL coaches heard the rhetoric regarding us being too undisciplined to handle the Wing T. Well…..

Not a knock on PR. Just outsized. Hats off to nice season. Congrats Flyers.

Are you purposely dense? And learn how to spell if you're going to respond to a comment of mine. On second thought, don't respond at all.
 
My post on Tuesday was spot on .
I said 49-14 could be worse and it was .
Lemont looks pretty good for almost winning last week.

Esl has their 3rd string rb. Their starting mlb got a carry for a 50+ yard td.

You just sound like you want something to bash esl about after a dominating win.

Did u have a problem with vaseyv staying in late
 
I can't wait for 1-32 no North team will be in finals again in 6a.
Lemont and Crete had to play them back to back years .
I think that was the biggest margin in state history .

I'm not sure, but something tells me the Flyers will do just fine whether you root for them or not!!

You guys are getting upset at ESL? Why? They did everything they could to move up. The IHSA has this dumb rule that a team can’t partition up more than one class. This is No fault of ESL. ESL lost last year so they were on a mission this year. Do I think ESL should be able to play up to 7-8A, absolutely! They can complete with these teams and it would be fun to watch. It certainly would be more difficult but they can complete at the highest level. Congratulations Flyers on your State Championship you deserved it. 👍

How am I dense in responding to your whining about how unfair it is to one of the most successful programs in state history? SHG has done very well season after season in spite of this “ Huge unfair burden” you are complaining about!

Yeah , I typed quickly and didn’t check my spelling. Apparently that also makes me dense.

I have never complained about the non-boundaries schools. But you sure are complaining about how unfair it is to them.

The I HSA has no such rule. The conference enacted such rule to eliminate the possibility of them eliminating conference members in the playoffs. Petty stuff. Weak sauce.

All the guys on the field were starters, both sides when you were up 50-7. I paused and noted the numbers. Thought it was classless, but that's my opinion. Not bashing ESL, but questioning the coaches decision. And no I don't have a problem with the losing team not pulling their starters when they're behind by 48 points.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe Phillips back in the 2010s petitioned up to 6A from 4A

Calling esl classless is 100% bashing them

If you are still trying to score with your 1s, why cant i try and stop you with my 1s? This isnt rec league.

And you must not have been watching closely because hayden (#0 who ran the last td) is the mlb. And their 5th string rb.

I know they will. Sorry you don't understand the teachable moment of good sportsmanship. And if your son sat on the bench as a 2nd stringer (and a senior) and didn't get into the game, you would be cool with that? Leading by 42 points??

Let us know when rec league sign ups are, because thats what it seems you prefer. (Aside from the fact your claim against esl simply isnt true)

Its amazing how some people can watch esl play one of their best games all year, dominate for a state title, and still find something to complain about.
