    The Super Bowl will only be televised on streaming service

    In terms of high school sports, I think streaming has contributed to the noticeable decline of in person attendance at games. When I went to Linganore, you either came to the game in person or you didn't see it all. Now you have the NFHS Network or YouTube live streaming nearly every game for...

    Does Maryland need a competitive-balance rule?

    There are 180 football playing schools in the state. For 4 classes, that's 45 per class. At most, teams that don't receive a bye would need to win 6 games to win a state title, meaning we would need to add 1 additional week to the schedule. We already start football later than most states...

    Does Maryland need a competitive-balance rule?

    I don't like the 6 classes because I just don't think we have the number of schools to support it; however, my biggest issue is why just football? If the MPSSAA wants 6 classes, all fine and good, but then each of the other sports should be divided into 6 classes as well (except field hockey...

    VA 4A 104-0

    This game highlights why an "everyone makes the playoffs" system is an extremely bad idea. I read a story about this game yesterday and it was 98-0 with 30 seconds left and instead of kneeling, they chose to throw a pass and score to get over 100. The coach said that he felt bad about it but...

    VA 4A 104-0

    It’s not just Frederick, South Hagerstown got their fingers smacked for a 2 point conversion late in the game against Williamsport. Best part….it wasn’t supposed to be a 2 point conversion, it was a botched snap on the extra point that turned into the conversion but apparently that didn’t matter...

    Catoctin vs Fort Hill

    Not sure how it all went down because I went to Linganore but there were 5 TD’s scored in the final 6 minutes. I was getting updates and there were some complaints about the officiating, no idea about what specifically though (although it would be hard to blame the officials for blowing a 21...

    Catoctin 20 Patterson Mill 19

    Same with Frederick, I call it little Moco. Most of Urbana is now Moco transplants. There’s a reason that I moved west…..

    Catoctin 20 Patterson Mill 19

    What the Moco people don’t like to admit is that yearly, there are 2-3 teams in the County that are very good and can compete with most teams statewide, but then there is an incredible drop off after that. A vast majority of the teams in Moco are average at best and then the bottom of the barrel...

    Catoctin 20 Patterson Mill 19

    If Boonsboro beats HDG, Catoctin will travel to Fort Hill. I want to say Boonsboro can win, but after last week, I have my doubts. On the other hand, if you take out the Brunswick game, HDG’s wins have come against opponents with a total of 6 wins and they have a loss to Patterson Mill. My...

    Catoctin 20 Patterson Mill 19

    Make that 3 number 1 seeds down tonight as Franklin beats Edgewood 46-22. That now opens the door to a possible all Frederick County 3A Final as it’s now impossible for Oakdale and Linganore to meet prior.

    Catoctin 20 Patterson Mill 19

    2 number 1 seeds have gone down so far tonight. Walkersville also trounced Damascus 42-0. Good night for Frederick County!

    Why did Havre de Grace forfeit two games? -- Point Totals

    If Boonsboro plays like they did last Friday, they will get beat. Joppatowne was better than their 2-6 record but the game should not have been close. Poor tackling and general lackluster play by Boonsboro left Joppatowne in the game. At one point, Joppatowne converted a 4th and 30 after a...

    Havre de Grace vs Brunswick

    In the MPSSAA's defense, 1A is by far the most spread out region of them all. Boonsboro, Brunswick, and Catoctin are all in the North with teams from Baltimore and Harford Counties, which on the surface doesn't make any sense, but the best option of the West already has 8 teams in it. You can't...

    Havre de Grace vs Brunswick

    HUGE opportunity for Boonsboro! 2 Boonsboro wins and an Allegany upset of Mountain Ridge and the Warriors are hosting a state quarterfinal. I’ll be at the Boonsboro-Joppatowne game tomorrow night. Go Warriors!

    Class 1A West Regional Playoff Bracket

    A few playoff upsets and it's possible! Linganore is in the same position in regard to Oakdale and an all FredCo final. Right now it's looking like a possible state semi matchup but a few upsets either tomorrow night, or in the 1st 2 rounds and it may work out. I obviously know zilch about...

    Class 1A West Regional Playoff Bracket

    My 2 cents for what they are worth: 1) I do not like that everyone makes the playoffs. While it doesn't make the regular season completely meaningless, it definitely loses a bit of its luster. I remember Week 10 Urbana-Linganore games where the winner made the playoffs and the loser stayed...

    Class 1A West Regional Playoff Bracket

    I saw Boonsboro play North Hagerstown on Friday night. I agree with your assessment, Boonsboro should steamroll Smithsburg.

    Other scores 10/21

    In my opinion, Oakdale and Linganore are the 2 best teams in 3A. I'd say that the biggest threat to either of those teams is their own region ( Sherwood & Westminster) or the teams advancing from the South (Arundel, Chesapeake, Northern). I watched Sherwood-WJ on the NFHS network and wasn't...

    Other scores 10/21

    Not that it makes much difference, but the Oakdale-Urbana score was 42-22. The surprising this is, Urbana actually led this game 22-21 in the 2nd half. Linganore still has to be the favorite Friday night but they are going to have their hands full with the Hawks.

    Brunswick

    I will respectfully disagree that Frederick and Washington County have "gotten real bad." One, Washington County was never very good in the first place and it starts at their youth levels which are well below those of Frederick and Allegany. Two, there are still good teams in Frederick County...
