It was simply a glorious couple of nights for football. While I enjoy catching a game indoors, I think football should be played outside. The elements are part of the game. And Thursday night was a football cathedral. Wind & rain. Mud & muck. Slipping, sliding, sloshing. It was beautiful man. A perfect end to [...]

Some teams rise up when the stakes are high. Others fall flatter than a Kansas wheat field. Seeing a team make the transition from one who falls to one who stands strong can be exhilarating. Watching a team go the other way can be painful beyond all measure. Friday’s action showed off some of [...] OK folks, I’m wrapping this up for now. I’ll post the full scoreboard later. And if I ever suggest doing this again, somebody kindly shoot me. Thanks. 9:37 – Lockwood 39, Sarcoxie 13 – final. Jasper 55, McAuley 0. Bolivar 55, Hillcrest 14. 9:33 – It’s a final, Fair Grove 38, Strafford 30. Other finals. Lamar 35, [...] When did basketball season start? Seriously. 54-41? 60-41? 69-63? 7-6? Oh wait, that’s more like it. Yes it was an offense happy week 6. But the defense was still out there. Nixa & Camdenton played a 7-6 headknocker. Pierce City & Miller only put up 25 points combined, and even #1 Monett only managed 14 [...] Just call me butter baby, because I am on a roll. Only one ugly game this week and it truly was ugly as Rolla & Joplin slugged it out in the slop. Other than that, I only missed close ones. So, yes. I am feeling better about myself. I am somebody. Wednesday we’ll debut the [...] We’ll be at the halfway point after tonight. That means the weekly rankings, undefeated list, & winless list will debut this season next week. Both lists have been shrinking each week & I think the same happens tonight. At least two winless teams will get their first W as we have two 0-4 [...] Well, it wasn’t a perfect week like I hoped for, but it wasn’t bad either. One of those coming totally out of the blue. Joplin & Camdenton staged a shootout for the ages with Rolla & Parkview not far behind. Ava & Seneca proved they are teams to watch out for. Waynesville continued their free [...] As Monty Python sang, always look on the bright side of life. My picks have been sub-par, but it’s made for some exciting football. For example, I took Mountain Grove to beat Mt. View-Liberty. But it was flat out exciting being in the house as the Eagles beat the Panthers for the first time in [...] Whew! Back to it after an exhausting weekend. I will be getting the rest of my baseball previews posted this week. Sorry for the delay. The real job pays the bills and takes precedence. Opening day of spring sports today and here’s what went on. BASEBALL Lamar Baseball Classic Purdy 5, Liberal 2 Purdy: Mason Roller – W, 6 [...] |
