I would love for Flat Rock and Huron to win every game just because of my roots and where I live. I like to think I have been pretty objective over the years. This year is the hardest one of all to pick. I literally had no clue. I went with the two teams that had returning QB's and then I find out one of them has been moved to receiver.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02325928863743778443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-63553455033328643842016-08-24T19:37:56.987-04:002016-08-24T19:37:56.987-04:00Both sides would be great imoBoth sides would be great imoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-25880647532121286782016-08-24T18:46:38.385-04:002016-08-24T18:46:38.385-04:00Chris does a great job with the blog and we are al...Chris does a great job with the blog and we are all glad he continues (hopefully for decades to come). He has a large number of readers (including those outside the league) and his coverage is much better than the newspapers. He is, however, human. I would suppose that if he could make predictions perfectly, he would live in Manhattan or Las Vegas. In any case, some perspective on the regular season:<br /><br />2015 Actuals<br />SMCC 7-0 (8-1)<br />Milan 6-1 (7-2)<br />RV 5-2 (6-3)<br />GI 3-4 (4-5)<br />Huron 3-4 (5-4)<br />Jeff 2-5 (3-6)<br />FR 1-6 (3-6)<br />AP 1-6 (1-8)<br /><br />Chris’ Picks (Aug 25, 2015)<br />Milan 6-1 (8-1)<br />SMCC 6-1 (7-2)<br />Huron 5-2 (6-3)<br />RV 4-3 (6-3)<br />AP 3-4 (5-4)<br />GI 3-4 (5-4)<br />Jeff 1-6 (2-7)<br />FR 0-7 (1-8)<br /><br />I don’t think my predictions would be as good as his (or even close). My point is that his are not perfect. So to SMCC, Airport, Jefferson and Flat Rock, leave it all on the field and prove Chris wrong. Winning as an underdog is even sweeter than winning as a favorite. I even think Chris would be happy for you to prove him wrong and be in the top half. Good luck this season to all the Huron league teams and players!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-61044067878252083842016-08-24T17:18:32.923-04:002016-08-24T17:18:32.923-04:00Chris Just want to say thanks for making this blog...Chris Just want to say thanks for making this blog happen again.

While we may not always agree with one another, or with you from time to time, we all love our kids and high school football, and have to give you many thanks for making it that much more enjoyable.

My job as AD elsewhere (even though we don't have football), doesn't allow me to get out and see everyone. I was able to do a lot of research by going to basketball games, wrestling meets, track & field, etc...I just can't do that anymore. I also knew many of the coaches when I started back in 2009. I just don't know the coaches very well. What made this year happen is, I sent an email to every coach asking for insight on their team. Every coach but one responded back. That makes things much easier. The other thing is that I need participation from the fans. I learn a lot from you guys about the individual teams you support and for that, I thank you.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02325928863743778443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-90634947816376699562016-08-24T10:46:40.523-04:002016-08-24T10:46:40.523-04:00It's funny how you mention that you thought ab...It's funny how you mention that you thought about hanging it up this year, then follow up with a mention of Huron League Blog gear (hint, hint?) If there is money to be made, and you still enjoy your blog , you'd be a fool to step away. Not to mention your adoring fans... how could you give up the fame? <br /><br />I would definitely listen to your podcast ( and know local businesses would buy some advertising.) <br />I remember, possibly 2 years ago, you had players of the week. Maybe try player of the game? <br />Thanks for returning , Chris. I hope you enjoy writing as much as we enjoy reading.

The dean...Glad to see the blog alive again Chris! <br /><br />The dean of league coaches since I'd say is old man Kalby. Lol he's a seasoned coach of many sports. Had been on Dans side almost the entire 12 year tenure. And if he is standing in as head coach, that'd be his spot lol but I'm a little biased ;)<br /><br />I'd proudly rep some Huron Blog gear, so long as it's big enough for my hefty butt to wear lol<br /><br />And a Podcast i would definitely subscribe and listen to. Be nice to be able to turn it on during my drives and listen instead of reading all the time lol specially if you did a podcast at another game and gave live updates. Be nice to be able to hear another game whilst sitting in on another. <br /><br />Gun raffle? Hmmm you can never have too many guns. Lol I'll shoot ya an email for details sir. <br /><br />As for player of the week, that's a tough call. Too many soft parents that could cause an uproar but at the same time, if a player has an outstanding game and they do great; they deserve credit where credit is due. So I say yes to a POTW. <br /><br />KCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
