• With Redmond gone. With SMCC loosing starters. Milan should be the number one on the HLC.

• notahaterreally please get the info straight the lights ARE coming down the AD said they were not safe enough (tilting) and they are coming downnn

• wrong info on Airports lights. the home side is down to fix the electrical problem before the playoffs, a rewire, new light and the poles go back in. not sure if the visitor sides are comeing down, no rpoblems over there,

• looks like navarre is now better than airports field.
  at least it has lights hah :P

• in addition as we speak crews are working and taking Airports Field lights down...they will NOT be putting up new lights all games will be played friday evenings or saturday

• But man who is GI's defensive coordinator? That is where alot of GI's problems have been over the last few years. However they have had some offensive talent over the years. GI has great potential and always have but they do have to realize that defense wins games. Until they start playing defense wins wont come easy,but it was good to see them win 5 games and thats a start. Play a little defense and they will make the next step to the postseason. Only if they play some D.

• My son came home from school today and heard it straight from Redmund.(He was a starter this year) There IS a 70% chance that he is going to Monroe. He will still teach at Airport, but MAY coach at Monroe. Talks are still in progress as of Dec. 22nd. If he leaves, you might want to rethink your predictions for 2010!

• To Airhead I say leave your arrogance/ignorance on M-live.

  Yes GI stunk it up in the mud bowl last year, but comparisons to Summit...please. Talk like that cements your a/i and is quite frankly, embarrising for the Airball faithful.

  Concerning GI coaches....it's not the job of parents and bloggers to decide or make "change" comments. It's a cancer in a program calling for coaches heads and this author is cancer free!!

  Comments about coaching snafu's are fair game, but only with the hope that they'll git-r-done.

  My Git-r-done list for Coach B:
  -STOP underclassmen promotion, unless it's Jesus himself
  -DEFENSE, spell it ,smell it, live it, breath it, dream it, BRING IT
  -D E F E N S E
  -D E F E N S E
  -Rush the pigskin with the same zeal as last year with Teen..great horses in the stable
  -Don't get sucked into pass happiness...teams will key on that like they did against Teen in the OH4 years.

  BTW congrats to SMCC on their day!
  Did the mayor give one to Airline too...NOPE.
  Sorry, couldn't resist ;-)

• Congrats to the SMCC football team for being honored by the mayor! He proclaimed yesterday SMCC football day bc of their accomplishments! Great job boys, looking foward to next year!!

• Grosse Ile DOES regret running Flanery out of town. It is crazy that after winning that title that he was cut replace him with a coach with little experience, that turns into a coach that did not win a game in over two years... How did he keep his job?..

  In watching Bodner's coaching style you can see that the focus is not on defense. His lack of experience haunted him in two late losses this last season and questionable coaching calls during the Riverview game even though GI won.

  I will agree that Grosse Ile will never be good until they stop interfering and let the coaches coach, but at least get us coaches that have better experience than what we have. It seems that in all of our sports they are pushing teachers into the head role even though we have more experienced coaches out there.

  On saying that, last year we won our games on raw talent by a few. GI does have a bit of talent coming up the next couple of years plus quite a few player that are returning so we should be in the mix, not from what the kids are learning from their coaches, but from basic athletic ability.
