My Suicide Bombers are the worst "first half" team of 2019!

While the Bombers have outscored their opponents in each quarter this season (90-71, 93-79, 93-34, 71-34), their second half performances are notably better than their first halves (183-150, 164-68). And if we exclude the Louisville St X game, those halves become (155-144, 157-44).

Instead of calling them the worst "first half" team, I would instead say they are a great second half team. That is called excellent coaching adjustments.
 
Yappi is no place for kind words and/or thoughtful discourse!

My mizabol Bombers have no chance vs Pitiful Panthers of Price Hill.

And I think we may need a poll on which is the most mizabol area in the world to live....
option 1- Haiti
option 2- Price Hill

note: mother-in-law always pronounced “miserable” as “mizabol” so it stuck)

No longer VIKING stadium is sponser by Jake Sweeney now
 
Top 4 seeds are about as even as it gets........
no running game in the snow/ice/cold will not benefit the Bombers......
and Fairfield will have to take down the "evil empire" of the GMC to advance......

Elder gets the edge over X thanks to their offensive line....... large and in charge!

can't believe a team in the past 20 years has dominated its conference the way the Cards have dominated the GMC

And Region 1 in NEO will have to wait another week for the big game with Eds vs Mentor...... winner will win state!

Pope's Perfect Picks for tonight.....

Elder - 27
St X - 21

Colerain - 14
Fairfield - 10

LaSalle - 31
Walnut Ridge - 7

Mentor - 27
McKinley -14

St Eds - 17
Euclid - 7
 
Worst Cheviot Road traffic ever would be:
Elder v Colerain @ La Salle ... AND ... La Salle v Harrison @ Colerain.
OHSAA would never do this.
