The Repository says Simmer is doubtful too because of an injured spleen from last week's game.
Week 5: Green (0-1) (3-1) @ McKinley (1-0) (2-2)

Not saying anybody is lying but there is not much that I trust less than a high school football injury report.

I hear you. Time will tell. Talk was that Simmer spent a few days in the hospital. Hope he's recovering well.

Correct, as far as I know.

Well, except 99% of the crap you hear on here because someone thinks they are "in the know". LOL
Well I hope you are correct and they are lying and Martin and SImmer are both playing and plenty healthy. But it doesn't look good and losing those two will definitely be a game plan and game changer.

What is Green doing playing McKinley? Basically, the people in charge at Green about 8 years ago voted to join a league where we're the second-smallest school and have to play several teams whose enrollment is 500+ students higher than ours. They chose to sacrifice a lot of wins across all sports (with basketball and golf being notable exceptions) in order to save money on travel. Green's football program was above average most years prior to 2015 when we played in a league with teams our size, and winning league titles in baseball, track, tennis etc. was common.
However, even though Green hasn't won very often in the FED, I can promise you that the guys on the team are not afraid of anyone. They've got an opportunity tonight to faceoff against a historic powerhouse in the best stadium in the country. It would be one of the most special wins in school history if we can get it done. Win or lose, I'm proud of the players and coaches of this year's Bulldogs team.

I think the real question is what is Massillon doing on the field with St. Ed's

Good first quarter for the Summit County Bulldogs. But I've got a feeling the Pups are going to hit back.

Well done McKinley. Williams is a beast at RB. Pups were just too fast.
34-14 McKinley with about a minute to go. Bull GreenDog is correct the Williams kid played a really nice game tonight.

No offense BGD, like I said in an earlier post, pees down leg! Green seems to have the horses but cannot get over the McK hump! I predict the same with Jackson, pound the snot out of Perry but they will drop the ball against McK.

Green will be fine. Next two games are at home against GlenOak and Louisville, which I expect to be wins. The two toughest games of the year are over, and Green was competitive in both without Martin. Playing bigger, better teams on the road should prepare Green well for the home stretch of the season and (hopefully) the playoffs.

McK getting a lot of confidence the last few weeks heading into North Canton. Hoover's three wins come against teams with a combined 3-11 record. We'll see who's for real soon.

Don't forget you still have Lake left, which appears to be no slouch this year

I highly doubt that. Nice players for sure but would not have impacted result. Green problem is tremendous lack of depth. Too many players going both ways. Tough to do in the Federal league.
