| Saw the Adams vs Rochester game. In mid 4th Quarter, Adams 1st offensive unit was throwing to deep patterns with a 3 touchdown lead. I also saw the Stoney game in which they did the same. Did Adams do that in their other lopsided wins or is that something that Patritto only does to his sister schools? Sure looked pretty classless to me.

| I certainly don't take it personally. I don't care what they do up there. I was just wondering if that was their normal mode of operation. I have heard a few people talk well of the program but from what I saw, Patritto and his staff simply "don't get it."

| Hey Ex..whatever?
Why r u such a sissy to aire out a non-issue like this in this forum. Sounds to me like u want to stir something up. I pretty much think your classless with your comments... If u want some more ...come on back.
So much for being PC but I loved doing this guys!! (Hee hee!)

| I am Glad that Adams kicked our butt's (Farmington) because we found out what kind of team we had and won 6 in a row. The Kids said we want to be like them and we know after getting our butt's kicked we can take anything. I sure hope they don't impose some stupid rule to protect from a good _ss whopping.

| Hey,
I just a reminder u get back what u give out.....come in with class and u r treated with class.
Rccola ... u r on it!!! Farmington is not the same team they were when they played Adams ... by the way no one from Farmington came in here and complained about the loss ... instead u learned from it ... u got better and u have been rewarded I wish u guys the BEST! Now thats a life lesson we can ALL learn from ... CONGRATS. Apparently Exorp is still learning how to man up (Grow up).... Gosh there I go again ...Hee heee

Not particularly investing much thought into whether or not Adams engages in a sportsman like conduct. However, I find it quite unfortunate that the LO coaches weren't allowed access into the coaches booth during the recent beatdown. Plays were called from the sideline.
....whatever!

| I've filmed many a game over the years at Adams High and you shouldn't feel bad... no opposition gets in the dreaded box. That thing is tiny anyway, they just pack it to the gills with alumni anyhow. It's just better to set up shop with your head sets somewhere up high in the bleachers and go at it from there.
On another note. Stoney Creek, Rochester... and now how about upgrading the facilities at Adams please. They need/deserve a nice one, wouldn't you say?
Roll Rice like dice boys.

| i've filmed at adams a couple times too and i actually got up there when they played farmington, after that havent even gotten in the door way lol, southfield doesnt let ya up there either filmed a couple games there this season, stoney has a very cool mural on the back windows of their press box of all the athletics at the school its a very cool idea, rochesters press box is pretty big one thing i do like that rochesters had that i all the other schools didnt have was the fact that u didnt go on top of the press box like u didnt have to climb a ladder up to the roof u could go in sort of like a crows nest thing on either side or even stay inside the press box itself, groves was nice too pretty, lake orions press box idk i felt like i was too high up, like too far away from the field if that makes ne sense, but it was still nice, although lahsers was small it still does the job and the staff there is pretty cool with scouts bein up there, along with troys staff and their press box was also nice

| As I stated before, I don't care what they do up there. I have no ties to any of these schools. If Boon would have bothered to read more than every fourth word like Evelyn Wood, perhaps he would have understood that. Fact is, I am on contract to evaluate players and programs for two D1 schools (one Big Ten and one MAC)and wanted to learn more about that particular program. I simply asked a question in order to get a better feel. Apparently I was asking too much.

| ok well to answer ur question expro about their normal mode of operation the answer is yes, adams is a very high powered offense that puts a ton of points on the board no matter who they r playin really, and they do it all four quarters. Not many teams have stopped the trio of waszak reynolds and wilson, along with the rest of the highlanders offense

| geralldd, what does Expro need to prove?? That he's really scouting for two D1 universities? What difference does it make? Everyone on this forum has tooted their 'expertise' (opinions) about Football at some time or another.
I think his initial question about Adams using their starters mid-way through 4th quarter (even if they're up 3 TDs) to 'stack up even more points' wasn't absurd. Gentlemen, greed comes in all shapes, sizes and forms.
Scouts aren't there to look at who's winning, but rather the talent of a player, his willingness to be 1 of 11 cogs, and most of all if the prospective athlete is coachable. Ego isn't something a coach is looking for.

| geralldd,
I am not interested in detailing where I played, coached, or am currently aligned in an effort to satisfy your doubts. If I can use this site/forum to gain meaningful insight related to the OAA players and programs, then great. Along the way, if I can provide meaningful thoughts or topics, even better. On the other hand, if you are skeptical, that's ok too.

| That makes no sense. What are you talking about? So a team is up 3 TD's and there is over a half game left. Check the history books, there have been many teams down by that many points that have come back. What is it they don't get. The desire of every kid who play's is to SCORE it's a rush! If a team want's to score many point's then let it be. It's come to the point that were raising kids to be wimps. Please don't run up the score Mr Coach, my team's feelings might get hurt. Like I said to the kid's after Adams kicked our _SS, you have to learn to hate getting your but kicked if your ever gonna kick but! I still don't get your insight.

| Yea, the point was really that it was the entire 1st team offense with 3 TD lead or more, mid way through the 4th Q, throwing 40 yard passes to the end zone against both of your sister schools. Necessary? The kicking was already very complete.

| Opps on the bad. I think there's some dislike between the 3 schools out in Rochester. It's worse in the PSL in Detroit. They use the N word while they play each other on the field.

| yes there r definetly some tension between the three schools especially rochester and adams, and personally i dont think its necessary because if ur up by 35 or 40 u have proven that ur a good time the first three quarters so y try to jam it down their throats even more, put ur backups in there and let them see the field, now i know i have seen adams backups on the field just not a whole lot

| What a ridiculous question and phrased in a unprofessional manner ... he had even drawn his own concusion/opinion anyway. If this so called scout had done an ounce of research he would not ask such a stupid question. Bottom line this was a rehtorical question looking for some support and Im glad hes now a bit more educated. Next time do some research before u roll in a forum and call a high school team classless. That was the real classeless act.

Thats it .... I said my piece.
Hey I was looking at the running back sats for our league pretty impressive. I wonder how r stats match up against the CHSL (for example) basically a strong run oriented league might be revealing.

| Yeah Bo, the successful OAA teams were able to run the ball well, no doubt. As a whole, the White was dominate in that category... even with Orion and C'town leading the Red. If Baker had a decent situation at Oak Park then maybe it's a different story. Looking forward to seeing Avondale's Mathews run soon.

| Boonazz, just signed on and read through the comments. Why do you find Expro's question so difficult to answer? I found it to be pretty straight forward. The question is: Does Adams usually have their starters go in mid-4th quarter even through they're up by 3 touchdowns? If No...then OK.... if Yes, why so? Your team (Highlander's) are one of the top teams in the OAA. There's no need for you to get defensive if someone asks a question that might seemingly tarnish their integrity.

I do not think he cared about an answer he already had formed his opinion. Several posters answered him and boonazz has tried to end it - let it go.
This cry baby stuff about running up scores is silly. I personally witnessed Orion losing it's 1st game to Harrison after leading 21-0.

| Boon, glad to see you are staying loyal to the brown and gold. I was hoping for as much. The only thing that could've been better was if my post would have actually generated some good bulletin board material for us to use with the kids before the big game with Rice.
