No, not pics of underage girls. That would be wrong. For most people.
One of the things I think is so great about football season in general is the season arrives and it's major intensity for what seems like a few short weeks and then suddenly it's playoffs or bowl season. No month long preseason then 162 games. No starting practice in September and the season ends in June. It's about 13 action packed weeks and you see who gets rewarded at the end with either playoffs in HS or Bowl games and/or playoffs in college. Believe it or not, tonight is week 4 for State High School programs.
The realignment in high school this year saw another category, 7A, for the top enrollment schools, which probably creates a little more balance and competition between teams at the top. Hoover has played it's usual early killer schedule but they haven't faired as well as they sit at 1-2. GH's Central Red Devils look like bad asses early with a 3-0 slate. How's your alma tomater doing so far this year? Did realignment create any new rivalries or suspend games between some long time opponents.
Locally, there's a little more talent than in year's past. Dale County has a beast of a running back, Jamarius Henderson, who Gus was down to look at last weekend along with the Charles Henderson LB and Auburn commit, McBryde. (Forgot his first name) Henderson has the size, speed and stats to be considered one of the best and he has some offers from a few schools like UAB and even Kentucky. Have no idea how reliable, but WOTS is spelling his own name may be a problem for him. Hasn't stopped big time programs before.
Going tonight to see Sidney Lanier come down and play the mighty 2-1 Rehobeth Rebels in 5A action. (The Rebels have won 3 games combined in 2 years, so...) Going to any games? Any talent to keep an eye on?
