Thread#2 East,Notre Dame week 10.

[Axe N Shield]

NO COACHES FROM ND GOT ANY UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTY CALLED AGAINST US.WE THOUGHT THERE WAS SOME UNSPORTSMANLIKE PLAYS AND WE TRIED TO ADDRESS THAT.EAST PLAYED A GREAT GAME AND THEIR KIDS SHOWED UP TO PLAY AND PLAY HARD EVERY PLAY, AND THAT IS WHAT IT TAKES. I ASKED THE EAST COACHES IF THEY WANTED TO PRAY WITH US AND THEY SAID YES. WE PRAISE JESUS CHRIST IF WE WIN AND IF WE LOSE, ALL THE GLORY GOES TO HIM, I'M NOT A MILKSHAKE DRINKER AND DONT CLAIM TO BE, BUT I BELIEVE. BEST OF LUCK TO EAST IN THE PLAYOFFS , THEY DESERVE IT AND HOPE THE RIVALRY STAYS STRONG FOR YEARS TO COME. GOOD LUCK AND SEE YOU NEXT YEAR.

REMEMBER TO THANK A VETERAN TODAY FOR ENABLING US TO PLAY THIS GREAT GAME OF FOOTBALL IN THIS FREE COUNTRY.

My bad... I apologize then to the ND coaching staff! If there was a flag thrown on #7 for ND and no other players were around him; then what transpired? Did the kid say something to the ref? Or did the ref hear something? I know in the heat of the battle sometimes things slip or happen! If that is the case; a warning should have been given to the player not a flag! Unless, it was said to the ref; and I have a hard time beleiving that any kid would just say something like that to a ref!

Thanks for the wishes and here's to keeping the rivalry strong!

[EAST 2005-2008]

did'nt see it 1st hand but a covington coach said the personal foul against east near the north end zone was for an east player kicking or attempting to kick # 13 for ND in the head ---again I did'nt see it --it was the play where 3 flags flew at once -- what really happened ? Seemed to be a very well played game as far as sportsmanship goes.

Congrats to East --scrappy team --the game unfolded far differently than I thought it would, ND was actually able to have some success moving the chains via the run but the passing game , which had been pretty good, was way off. J Lewis had been money the previous weeks but they did'nt even seem to look his way. 2 plays by East were big time highlight material, the block on the punt return (# 41 is one tough kid to bounce back up after that) and the hurdle of the tackler was just phenonimial. East was jumping pass routes all night. Good scouting. MD

Our passing game was way off too.It has been a big factor in all games until this game.
