All of those are four-five years old. In the past three years, what has been done?

Quoted for Truth for everyone who doesn't know.

But formercoach, it all depends on which team gets off the bus, or steps on their field.

VB is definately improving

Nowhere did I say that Spangler was the Dynasty...all I said was that after he graduated, so did the last of the dynasty look what they did the very next year...4-12 I think it was... yes Hartman and Kauffman and Hassink and Brown and Reynolds, Wagner, Battirola, and a multitdue of other players were part of it but after Kyle graduated, so did the last of the DYNASTY... by the way Kauffman did not play fullback, he was our sweeper... spell his name right next time wont you please?

Ok i was just making sure knightmare didnt mean to put words in your mouth. Yea i will agree after Kyle was gone the whole state team dynasty everything was gone. Just making sure you give credit to Brown and Kauffman and all those other guys. If i understand correctly Brown is one of your coachs right? Hows he doing there. I've heard through the grape vine on the sidelines that hes got invited to try out for a MLS team? any truth to this? If so those boys are lucky to have such talented coachs such as Jeff Swaisgood playing for the national team in scotland and Matt Brown getting this oppurtunity?

No... people are getting riled at me on this forum for telling it like it is, the very least that i can do is request for them to spell a fricken' name right... I dont get on here everytime formercoach brags about Ada... I dont come in here and talk smack to whoever for what ever team now do I? NO! Its ridiculuos how many people seemingly joined the RC to criticize me... so fine, so be it... the least Im going to do is ask them to spell former players names right...am I entitled to ask a little bit in return for the slander?...and yes, Matt Brown has been invited to play for the Columbus Crewand yes, he is a VB coach...

Have to look for Cory and Riverdale...and Ada to be up top....then what to do with the rest of the mess? VB should quietly slide into fourth followed by Upper...then Old Fort and Tiffin Calvert will fight out for the bottom two spots...

I forgot Mohawk...they're not very good either... before you try and say Well Upper beat Vb they are a better team... well... not true...Vb tied Kalida, FJ, beat Bryan, only lost by one to Riverdale...

yea im thinking...

1.Cory Rawson
2.Riverdale
3.Bluffton
4.Van Buren
5.Otsego
6.Pandora Gilboa

Im sorry knightmare im talking about seedings for tourneys?
Otsego 6-2-0. But they really havent played anyone
If you look at it Van Buren should have a pretty easy first game if they play Pandora or Otsego

Very well played game tonight knights. Nothing to hang your heads about after this one. After losing to Miller City...Miller City being beat by Riverdale. Then to only lose by 1...great effort.

Riverdale and Van Buren always seem very physical when they play each other. It was that way again tonight. People may talk dirty play....but, if there was dirt, it was both ways.

Bill...as far as spelling....it's public schools worried about passing the standardize tests not teaching kids to how to spell or add or live.
Life is a gift...that is why it's called 'the present'

Um...national team in Scotland??? Last time I checked someone had to be a citizen of the country to play for a national team. Oh, and those guys are are all professionals. Not sure where this notion started.

And you don't get invited to play for the Crew, unless of course you're a top college or national youth prospect. You can of course PAY to attend one of their open "tryouts" and I've known at least 3 AMAZING players that have tried that route and were told politely that it wasn't going to happen. We lose sight of what real professionals are. They don't live on the same planet as us mere mortals.

Both guys are real good people. Would never say anything bad about either. But just looking for some realism.

By the way, credit goes to VB for their effort & fight last night.

KNIGHTMARE, name ONE time that I "Bragged about Ada"? I state facts. Facts dont lie. This forum has turned into a Van buren blog, which only VB people care about.

National team for Scotland? Must have missed that one.

RQ is right with the Crew tryout notion as well.

Say Rembrandt, didn't you play for the Botswana National U-24 team? Or did your citizenship expire?

Again, that word...... DYNASTY. Unless you guys were in an overthetop 1980s drama, please dont use it again.

bill, you cracked me up.

Punctuation engage.
