Lil’ Leonard here folks. Things have been slow of lately on Possum Tail Hollow and we’ve been reading some of these district predictions and who’s the best returning, etc.,etc. So Uncle Percy has decided to release his first ever Pre Season Poll. Here it is. Biggest Losers: 1) West Roanoke Banny Roosters 2) Abington Blue Buzzards 3) George Wythe Maroon Macaroons 4) Giles Chicken Wangs 5) John Battle Chariot Riders

Lil’ Leonard here folks. Uncle Percy has placed North Cross at Giles on the traveling schedule. We’ve never seen North Cross play. Uncle Percy says we could score a Double Whammy with this game. Team we’ve never seen play, North Cross and a Slobber Knocker Smackdown put on Giles.

Uncle Percy was wondering if you’ve ever had any dealings with GW when it comes to scheduling? They could have had another game last year, but they would not travel. They wanted this team to travel to GW which would have given them 6 home/3 away and no return game.

Uncle Percy says, You Mamby Pamby Millennials and Generation Zers don’t know this because you were still playing in the sand box and some of you were still wearing Pampers, but Tennessee High got their fill of Va Football during the 1999 and 2000 seasons. They scheduled home-away games with Gate City, Graham and Grundy. They went 1-5. Barely beat a Rebuilding 2000 Graham team (5-5) or could have been 0-6. Tennessee High doesn’t want to play any Va schools unless they from around Bristol. And They definitely don’t want “The Flattails”.

I bet the Boys down at Naugatuck was get a real “kick” out of a comedian like you. What do you think Mr. G-Man?

What’s the rest of the story about Bland and the rest of the Mountain Empire?

Uncle Percy said to keep up the good work and take care.

Mr. Researcher, did Thomas Walker ever hire a new Head Coach? If not, Here’s their man. He sounds like one of those “experts” you were talking about in one of your previous posts.

FCS started in 1978. Originally referred to as D1-AA, the bigger schools D1-A. There are several differences between FBS and FCS. FBS gets 85 football scholarships. FCS only gets 63 football scholarships. FBS schools must offer at least 16 sports for men and women, FCS only 14. FBS must play at least 5 home games a year against FBS schools, no such requirement for FCS. FBS has an attendance requirement, FCS doesn’t. FBS has a Higher scheduling requirements, FCS schedule requirements are lower allowing them to schedule D2 and D3 teams. There are also differences in financial aid requirements. NCAA requires that if you want to play D1 Basketball, then your football team must participate as a FCS football school. Better money in Basketball for a lot of these schools than football. Can’t hardly wait for that Georgia - St. Peter’s football game. You boys can call it D1 Football if want, but remember this, a jackass is a member of the Equine Family but there has never been a jackass to win the Kentucky Derby.

Lil’ Leonard here. Uncle Percy and I have been reading the comments, or I have while Uncle Percy listens. Uncle Percy wants know when Lehigh became a D1 school? They are a FCS school in football.

V-Cats...... Uncle Percy was wondering if you’re still in Texas.

If they’re thinking about leaving the Mt. Empire, then they really have only one choice. Hogoheegee competition, might as well stay in The Mt. Empire. Pioneer, competition, maybe a notch lower overall but long road trips. The Black Diamond, Hurley would be longest road trip, could probably compete with Hurley, Council, and Twin Valley in most sports.

I didn’t say that. Compton is one of the best to ever come out of SWVA. I’ve seen a lot of good players in SWVA over the past 50 plus years. Yogi Mooney of Clintwood was one of the best linemen ever. Saw him play in 75 and 76. Went to N.C. State, knee injury cut his career short.

You were talking about the last 30 years.

Thank you Cousin Liam, Uncle Percy said to make you a Cousin. You’re one of his favorite posters.

Well the ornerier smaller one, according to D1 standards, started out in D2 in PA, but later transferred back home to plays with his buddies at Emory. The other one used to block for a QB called Michael Vick. He even played in a National Championship Game against Florida State.

Wrong, Grundy had 2 all-state linemen in the 90s that were just as good if not better.

Nope. It’s Abington. You can find a tons of bs, several tons of snobs, tons of arrogance,

Remember Stu-Bean, it’s South Abington and just like Big Abington, they’re always better than everybody.

Uncle Percy’s Peacock is on the strut.

The joke is on BigWinners not me. Heed your on advice.

The Beasts appear to have quieted down, or did GMan put them in the a cage.

BigWinners, are you familiar with the saying, “as bright as a burnt out lightbulb”??? Guess what? Hokiebird 7 is. Good one Hokiebird.

VOLS?????? Isn’t that a GATOR snack???
