[Fly Like a Duck]

Or how about this? Realizing that sometimes, you just get your butts beat by a better team? Why is that so hard to realize? Dang it bothers me so bad to hear this type of crap when one or two teams slip up.

Do you really want to know why Central beat Bell? I'll tell you why:

1) well coached, just as Bell County and several other mountain teams. Believe it or not, there are a lot of good coaches out there.
2) Athletes. Flat out. Central was far and away more athletic at every position on the field last night.

If you couldn't beat Central by lining up and running right at them, you sure as heck weren't going to beat them if Bell wanted to turn it into a track meet (spread the field). I get so sick and tired of hearing this crap once somebody gets beat! Bell just got beat. Accept that, but in order to do that, you have to come to grips with the fact that, "you know, Central was just better." But, no; let's not do that because it's a hell of a lot easier to point diners elsewhere, like the coaches and there ways of doing things than to accept the fact that my baby boy and his buddies had a great year, but in the end, they were just beat by a better team.
