impressed with St Eds coaching so far.
My hat is off to Mainland. They traveled by bus 1600 thousand miles to play a national elite team. To anyone that has never traveled out of state with a high school team, it is an experience that you never forget. It takes it's toll when flying 1000's of miles. I can't imagine what it is like to travel that far by bus. I know what over night road trips are like and I loved them. I also know that it takes it's toll after 2 days on a bus.
Again, Mainland has my total respect from one athlete to another and from one coach to another. You guys rocked. I'm even going to make Mainland my favorite for the playoffs.
A bus?.. Why not fly??
Marvelous idea. Why didn't Mainland think of that?
If they had no money... they KNEW the perils of a long bus ride...
You're right. Money could have been a slight problem given round-trip team airfare in the $20-25,000 range.
Mainland may be better served by playing in state and local.
Bingo! Definitely one of the most intelligent remarks Drummer61 have ever posted here!
They are lucky the score was not worse. But, at least they gave it a shot
Drummer is saying St. Eds showed mercy. Praise the Lord and pass the chicken.
...and maybe St Eds' will come to Fla and play them again for another perceived win..
Or maybe St. Eds' will be smart enough to stay home and merely wait for more victims to arrive by bus?

He knows I'll whip his ass like a rented mule.
...Lets not bring in the refs, they get paid to look closely at the visiting teams side of play. They let certain close calls slide for their team but call it on the visitors.
That's the way it has always been, home refs, home cooking. They have to stack the deck, because they care more for the win than the game.
I just hope Cocoa stays home from now on unless someone wants to come play them in Florida.
That's what we've been sayin, man.
Cocoa will play anyone... even IMG, because the kids want to play the best teams the school can schedule.
At the detriment of how many schools in Florida, and the game. Don't play IMG. ITS BAD FOR THE GAME.
For what it is worth... Cocoa is 1-0 vs one of NJ's elite teams.
No offense, but what y'all do with whores is of no concern to me.
BP and Nu'Trelle,
I love your guys passion for normal ball but that ain't what floats some posters boats. What they want is a talent poor HS game that is a was been, to play one of their pimped up talent rich schools so they can say "we told ya we are better".
Drummer, Mainland was booked to fly to Eds to play but the promoter skipped town and now has legal issues. It was a 2 day ride for Mainland because they didn't punk out of a deal made by an incompetent promoter. Eds put up the cash and was expecting it to go like it did with Cocoa only from what I hear it cost more than expected for Cocoa to make the trip so the promoter bailed. Mainland, Cocoa, and Eds were none to blame. The game was originally to be between Cocoa and Mainland. Eds needed 2 games and went looking. When they found Cocoa and Mainland playing each other with the next week off the Eds connection was made. The losers were both Cocoa and Mainland for getting suckered in by a normally dependable promoter. What should have been an excellent Florida game between to border county teams became a nightmare for both teams. Judson playing with cracked ribs and not able to throw more than 15 yards without real pain and Mainland getting railroaded by a shifty promoter. Lets not bring in the refs, they get paid to look closely at the visiting teams side of play. They let certain close calls slide for their team but call it on the visitors. It's is already known. Example... Cocoa with over 60 yards in penalties, and at least 3 drive killers. Eds not getting the flag even one time... yes, not one flag. I'm no ref but I seen 3 holds that were right in the area of the football that were missed calls on Eds that should have been called, one resulting in a TD. Sour grapes? Yeah, probably. I just hope Cocoa stays home from now on unless someone wants to come play them in Florida. Cocoa will play anyone... even IMG, because the kids want to play the best teams the school can schedule.

This is probably why you and blackpopsicle don't see eye-to-eye on much anything. You don't care about bad officiating in Ohio; whereas blackpopsicle obsessed with it EVERYWHERE. Man can't even shop at Foot Locker. If he did, major news networks everywhere would have to send satellite trucks to cover the aftermath.... I am not concerned with High School Football Officiating in the state of Ohio ...
