I believe this is a continuation of the FH not trading video topic. I'm basing this opinion off my experiences working as an appalachian interpreter for several decades in DC. I believe the purp is endeavoring to communicate a message with deep meaning, albeit in his own, often misunderstood way. 1st takeaway from his piece is you need to know your enemy to be successful in combat. 2nd point--Truthfully, you need to know your opponent as well as you know yourself so you can capitalize on their weaknesses. Most of FH's opponents cannot stop their inside game with the fullback. FH's old skool balling, wing-t traps and angle blocks aren't techniques most teams see that often. Therefore, most teams aren't prepared for the challenge. Purp recommends that you familiarize yourself with, and potentially should own a copy of, "The Art of War" by Tun Zsu
I think he believes this recommendation will lead to more competitive MD small school football at Greenway. I remember watching very prepared Southern Garrett teams give FH all they could handle on the gridiron many moons ago. Those teams did not have the athletes, size, nor depth, but they traded blows with FH to the bitter end every year. Having personally witnessed those outings, I'd say purp is on point with his assessment. Shout out to head ball coach Tom Woods for studying The Art of War.

Not polk, but I appreciate the sentiment. I'm not at all surprised to hear I have a similar writing style. A few years ago, I was between jobs and found part-time work as an adjunct professor at the Paw Paw Institute of Hydrology. I worked with a die-hard hs football fan there that definitely could've been the Polk you speak of. Long story short, to bring in a few extra bucks, I would stay late and perform maintenance duties around the building. Well, I couldn't resist the temptation of solving a few math problems other instructors had been working on and left unfinished on their chalkboards. It wasn't long before they discovered who did it, and they didn't appreciate the assistance. Anyway, my mentor at PPIH always spoke of the 4 tds he scored against Andrew Johnson High School. Deep research revealed AJH allowing 4 tds by 1 runner just once in school history. That was the 1966 game vs Polk High.
 
I love it. Two of my favorite shows good Will hunting and Mary with children all in one paragraph. Genius
