That championship team. At least our horn was well tuned.About what?
You monsterBut are they plastic straws?
My apologies to you for my tardy acknowledgement to your insightful revelation of my impeccant omission of the ignominy targeted at the Naz ‘posse during that timeframe.Rock:
I think this is a reasonable post, and one in which you avoid deliberately attacking Naz faithful. I do, however, find it is absent a most vital factor of which drew Nazareth fans into vitriolic exchanges: The harsh and routine criticism to which Nazareth fans were subject.
While I accept your thesis Nazareth fans were keen to the idea Nazareth was improving and establishing its football program among the elite, I found a sizable proportion of the comments directed at Nazareth fans to trespass over a reasonable limits of responsible criticism into territory in which it became outright denunciations of the school, its fans, and members of the forum.
What motivated this gratuitous censure? Envy.
Most of the opprobrium hurled at Nazareth fans was prompted by the realization among ESCC fans Nazareth was no longer the conference weakling and they would now have to contend with a winning program.
In further defense of the school, I think it is also important to note the greatest contributing factor in Nazareth's gradual rise to the upper echelon in high school football after Racki arrived is the immutable truth the school maintained fairly strong boundaries to prevent athletics from appropriating academics.
Quite frankly, Nazareth's administration has no intention of allowing the school to go the way of Driscoll.
I say the school deserves a salute for this.
Seriously??? Smoking Jackets???
I think our "Posse" is more suited to the hard hats with cup holders and straws
Rita has a freshman RB (#35), who is lights out explosive. He had numerous long TD's against JCA. One was a kick return where he was backing up, lost one of his shoes, but still ran for a 75-yard TD.I know my excuse is made for lesser men but please accept it this one time. I must rush off to catch the freshman football match between my beloved Mustangs and the Bulldogs of Oak Lawn Richards.

I recall catching a ban for telling a JCA fan to do something something [deserved, Edgy has a rule on potty mouth], but that wasn't the playoffs. And I caught one for openly criticizing a Naz player [deserved].
Did I curse after PR throttled us and get banned? I seriously remember only two.
Anyway, if Edgy allowed it I would probably curse more. Curses are the most apt descriptor for some folks at times.
I never said I was classy, remember, I was a Southsider who drove an hour to Naz. Ain't no class east of "Touch of Class" Lounge.
