    I attended Lakeridge and used to go to a number of their football games - even after attending there.

    When I moved to Atlanta, I pretty much quit keeping up with the team. However, now that I'm back in the area, I've begun to follow them again - particularly because their former coach, Tom Smythe, is once again coaching the team.

    Anyway, was curious as to if any of you keep up with your respective teams...or even attend any of their games?

    PS: I am strongly considering attending the Lakeridge vs. Lake Oswego game. It's suppose to be a huge game for both teams. While Lake Oswege is a perennial powerhouse, Smythe has Lakeridge back on the proverbial map.

    Since I'm not allowed within 500 feet of my old high school, I'm court mandated to say no.

    Oh, you only need a few more credits to graduate. Keep taking the classes, you are bound to pass some sooner or later.

    No, my high school closed down. Before the school closed I would occasionally check their box scores.
    I do follow a high school team in Cleveland Ohio, because my friend is the defensive coordinator there. They've given up 11 points in the last three games!

    Did you and HCP drop out because you got each other pregnant?

    I didn't enjoy watching high school football when I was IN high school, so I have no interest in going back now. Wilson was terrible when I was there and they've been pretty always been terrible.

    HCP going OLD school with the state championship diss!

    (I had to look that up to see what the fuck you were talking about.

    Interesting, the state title seemed to be dominated by Wilson and Grant for about 6 years.

    Wilson: 85, 89 and 91
    Grant: 86 and 88.

    I guess Nate could say 3 is bigger than two (in this regard) but Grant has one from the 60's and one from 2008.

    Good lord this strike needs to end soon.
