[PaintsvilleTigerfan]

This will probably be the biggest crowd Paintsville has all year.... NOT because of the wonderful stadium Paintsville has or because of all their "D-1" recruits. But, because Johnson Central isn't playing. I'd say there will be more Black and Gold there than blue and white........ And the sad part is, both P-ville and BL's school colors are blue and white.

Oh, and by the way.... Paintsville even using the word 'Apple' and it dealing with football in any fashion is just wrong!

A post like this makes johnson central's fans look terrible. Do you honestly expect a Class-A school to have a stadium like centrals? Or to get as many people to a game as central does. For the simple fact that central is around 4 times larger than paintsville so they obviously have alot more alums, and students. Not to mention money.

as for the bolded johnson central took their licks in the apple bowl and lost more than they won till matney came but those were all close games. Paintsville only truly blew out johnson central a couple of times.

If you go through the actual scores of the apple bowls it becomes Painfully obvious that Paintsville won those games because of superior coaching. But even in their darkest hours central kept it close. Like I said only getting blown out 2 or 3 times. in thirty years. Then comes modern jc football in the last 5 years of the Apple Bowl JC outscored Paintsville 258-40. Compare that to centrals worst part of the series 1975-1982. Paintsville won 8 in a row but the score comparison is 155-24. Wth Paintsville having 4 shut-outs, and only allowing 6 ppg in each of the other four. If the games were close like that then there would be reason to continue the series. If there had been one game where it looked like paintsville had a chance to win after the first quarter there would be reason. What good would it do paintsville to get beat to death every year by their biggest rival. Other than to further degrade a already degraded program. And what good would it do for Johnson Central to play a gimme game against a class-a school when they need all the tough games they can get to get ready for the playoffs. Quite frankly Paintsville wanted to play a game and call it the apple classic if central wants to do it let them do it too.
