[EagleFootballPride]

Typically, when it's a mountain team playing a non-mountain team, it doesn't make much of an impression on them. You'd get more credit for beating Bell County on there than you would Highlands. Just the way of things. I'm not sure they realize there what a significant win this is, simply because most of the mountains outside the Ashland area has no clue what an Ironton is or what you'd do with one if you had one. Derek reads the message board, so I'm sure he's got an idea, but if you want people to watch your show, you show your target audience what they want. And more people in the audience are interested in a graphic breakdown of Hazard-Prestonsburg or Breathitt-Magoffin than some team on the fringe of the mountains playing a team up in Ohio.

Glad your here to take up for them... Fact of the matter is true football people would much rather have watched our game than any you just mentioned. Tonight was like an old fashion title fight. Tough and physical. Awesome atmosphere... Felt like the playoffs. Once again so proud of our Eagle team!
