Wife was complaining about Jackie Smelling and how she continuously changes her looks and that she was doing three different spots all back to back.

Honestly kind of sucks as a player even. Sidelines are narrow and hard to move around on. As the "visiting" team in 2010 We got dressed in a cramped locker room meant for woman's soccer. I don't remember how many guys we brought along but barely had any room. The experience and stuff was cool playing the semi final but was that great logistics wise.

i played there in HS and the locker room was cramped but we definitely had smaller ones on the road in season. Playing in The Dome is just cool though

There really isn't another great place to play the games this late in the year here is the issue.
@Macloney I noticed you are dumbing a lot of comments about high school playoff locations. Do you think there are better locations for the finals? If so, where?

Not exactly sure.
@BCClone Have no idea why I marked it funny. Didn’t intend to but was in a tractor when it was reading the thread. Might havebeen bouncing around a bit and hit something by accident.
Thought maybe you were a WH fan and thought I was digging at them. Talked to a couple more officials, and they thought the game would become a case study tape for several things.

Also, good luck finishing up and stay safe. Have the tile man spending my money now.

Well I did grow up in Britt and parents/family still live there so back quite a bit. Have friends coaching the team. So I am a WH fan but didn’t see the game so have no opinion on if it was bad call or not.

Money spent on tile well worth it. Hopefully you booked your NH3 early??

Is anyone else not impressed with Nwampa’s play? I have seen him a couple of times and he seems passive. He made a couple of plays last night I know but if you are one of the top players in the country I guess I’d expect more. He obviously looks the part.

It wasn't that bad a call IMO. The GC QB got under center fast but there were still GC players moving and getting set when the ball was snapped. Either way it was a very close call at the end.

I've been pretty impressed. The handful of times I've seen him have been against some of the biggest/best 5A schools in the state and he's clearly been the best player on the field by a lot. That punt return it looked like everyone else was in slo mo. I've actually been less impressed with Proctor's play.

Gavin and Webb-Tate both have been dominant for Ankeny everytime i see them play. Any idea what their college plans are?

Proctor will look better when he blocks college sized guys I think. Plays high right now.
