I know. Let’s get this show on the road.

Well it's part of the job and it was never an issue before. All GoFan does is inconvenience people because you have to have cash for concessions. If you're paying cash for that, you should be able to pay cash for admission.

Picayune is doing GoFan only for tickets. They've accepted cash for tickets since the 1920s when Picayune started playing football. The last time I checked, the US dollar is legal tender for all debts public and private. (Oh and GoFan charges a fee, so it's not cheaper at all).

Well @Tiburon Picayune is now cashless. I know you can’t see this reply, but I thought of all places it wouldn’t happen at Picayune. I know you wouldn’t be happy with this and neither am I.

I liked that trip to Brandon a couple of years ago. Took the day off. Went to Bass Pro and ate at Cock of the Walk on the Res and still had time to kill LOL. Tib was there too so it's definitely a good memory.

So is Kat going to help coach football as an assistant to Pound, or is he strictly going to be AD? I feel like he’s going to want to be a help to the boys on the sideline.

And that's fine. I'm just a firm believer in the game rewarding you when you go about playing it the right way. Just look at Poplarville from two years ago for example. I think winning a state title is a whole lot sweeter when you do it in house with home grown folks who are intertwined within the community. That's proof that old-fashioned hard work pays off.

There's nothing wrong with having a goal set to win a state championship. Is there anything sacred to you about high school football anymore or is it a "win at all costs" kind of thing? I realize you want to see Hattiesburg win a state title in the current era, but how do you want Hattiesburg to go about winning it?

Ok, but why has it gotten tough for Hattiesburg to stay relevant? Is there not enough talent within the Hattiesburg School District to win with who you have? People legitimately moving in is one thing, but to go out and actively recruit players that would have had nothing to do with Hattiesburg had they not been "recruited" is a totally different thing. These players have no ties to Hattiesburg otherwise.

Even if it is an old Big 8 stadium, putting the emphasis on the facility isn’t as imperative. The emphasis needs to be on the personnel and how that has evolved or changed since the respective spring games.

Last year I was able to print it in early August from the Capital Sports MS site. It'll probably be ready within the next week or so.

Vott, I know you are partial to that North Jackson field. Crooked sidelines and all.

Don't they usually play this game on a Saturday too?

It's good. It's got that old school smashmouth feel to it. Not bad at all.

I guess Tupelo's motto is "Be Bold" LOL!

We can also look at this from another angle as well. Does Tupelo have automatic protection from the MHSAA? In other words, they do what they want and the MHSAA allows it.

So you are supporting open and blatant fraud. How is this ok? I guess Tupelo must feel empowered and emboldened, as if Tupelo is going to cheat and there's nothing you can do to stop them. Were Tupelo and Petal born from the same womb or cut from the same cloth?

I know about the Wayne County turf and I can't disagree with your sentiment on it. I was referring to the new West Jones turf. I'm hoping it doesn't look as mustardy as the initial renderings.

Being able to hit that reset button for Wayne County is probably a good thing. Glad y’all were able to get Kat in the boat.

On the new turf too. Gonna have to see pictures of it when it’s done.

It sounds like that superintendent needs to go sing with the Italian Castrati. He'd fit right in.

If there's anybody being overlooked in this bogus poll, it's West Jones.

Stone would be above Lafayette. Just disregard all of this.

I'm sure there's more errors. This thing needs to go to file 13.
