On a warm fall's eve
With a team bound for somewhere
I met up with ol 'Motown'
At Waffle House on Churton Street
At the menu he was a-starin'
He ordered buscuits and breaded carcass
The riverstench overtook us,
And he began to speak

He said, "Son, wif my fork and knife
I've ate in real bad places
Knowin' not what tha contents were
It made water run outta my eyes
So if you don't mind me sayin'
This is the worst of dem places
On my plate I pour whiskey
Tryin to cover these livin' rice"

So I handed him my bottle
And he began to choke and swallow
Then he said I'll make a bet
And he challenged me to a fight
And the night got deathly quiet
And his faced lost all expression
He said, "The one that eats this rotten game, boy
Has to lose the parking lot fight

My team sometimes I scold 'em
Then refs miss their offense hold 'en
I just cant walk away
And I aint never goning to run
Panther fans think its funny
Like a dog that runs outta' cable
There'll be time enough for laughin'
When the seasons's done

Now gambler 'Mo' knows
If ya aint cheatin ya aint tryin'
An which straw to throw away
And knowin' what straw to keep
'Cause three are tied as a winners
And I aint about to be a loser
Cause the best that I can plan for is to hide
the short one in my sleeve

And with a toothpick he was trimmin'
He said when they aint a' lookin, this one in the hat I'll throw
Without any moral regrets
I aint no Lil Bo Peep
And somewhere in that hat O' darkness
The other toothpicks are broke even
Anythang less is just absurd
Panther boys a championship they'll keep

Upon reading your searing, innovative, and physho dellic essay, Tater Mommy, Gladys Knight suddenly appeared in the cranium area. Has this occurrence ever happened to your cranium area ?
P.S. Orange by thirty or fourty.

 
Just when Oranges offense looks like a bar fight along comes Alex Long and he scores four touchdowns. Well who is Alex Long and where did he come from. Did Coach Moser pick up some dust and breath into it, again. And Cody Evans has appeared as a legitimate wide out threat when he has been of the field all year. Suddenly in the last several games he has turned into a catching machine. With as many injuries as Orange has had they should be through instead of being 9-1 and tied for first place in the conference. The hidden truth may be in the offensive line lead by Austin Sykes. The offense runs the ball and runs the clock and scores more times than they punt. Then the defense takes over and they tackle the opposition ball carrier like he is giving away free pizza coupons. But watching Drew Lemaster slam into the line and refuse to go down until the ref rips the ball from his hands is worth the admission. His future is in the MMA.
 
Well Orange loses just one game and is dropped from the AP top ten. Orange gets dissed by the Shrine Bowl picks and by the AP All State team picks while they have one of the highest winning percentages in the state, i.e.(88%), over the last four years.
 
The end of the year for Orange at 9-1/ 5-1 conf, Northwood at 5-4/4-1 conf , Southern Durham at 6-3/3-1 conf and Chapel Hill at 5-5/2-3 conf are going to be interesting. The end of the year should be OHS 10-1/5-1, SDHS 8-3/5-1 and NHS 7-4/5-1. There is going to be a coin flip if two are tied and straws in a hat if three are tied even though Orange has the better overall record. CHHS may get in and they will surprise somebody. These teams may start meeting each other in the second round and for sure in the third round. The state championship should go through the conference again. SDDHS could be a third seed but has the athletic ability to compete in a championship game.
 
'MaytagMo' was washing unis, late one night
When his beady eyes beheld an eerie sight
From the pile they, began to rise
And suddenly to his surprise

They did the mash, They did the 'Motown' mash
The 'Motown' mash, it was a gridiron smash
They did the mash, the double wang is a flash
They did the mash, the defense is like a railroad crash

From his laboratory near the Eno east
He cooked pregame feast with roadkill yeast
The fans all came from their humble abodes
Their screaming is heard round Mt Eno echoes

Teams they did mash, they couldnt make no cash
The 'Motown' mash, other teams were badly gashed
'O' did the mash, they made the scoreboard flash
They did the mash, teams whined and tears did splash

No local teams were having fun
They dropped football like a brick ton
After Earnie hired 'Motown',
Winnin football south of I-40 is done

The stadium was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Offense broke chains, defense chased like baying hounds
Over the PA system the announcer played jive
While the fans pleaded for some, 'Tunes fum 1975 '

Teams they did mash, they couldnt make no cash
The 'Motown' mash, other teams were badly gashed
'O' did the mash, they made the scoreboard flash
They did the mash, teams whined and tears did splash

Out from his office, Earnie's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He slammed the phone and shook his fist and said
"I cant find any county teams on my schedule list ? "

Teams they did mash, they couldnt make no cash
The 'Motown' mash, other teams were badly gashed
'O' did the mash, they made the scoreboard flash
They did the mash, teams whined and tears did splash

Now everything's cool, Oranges the only team in Eno land
Their travelin cost are gettin outta hand
The Board of Ed may have to move the school
Just over the line in Alamance would make some drool

Teams they did mash, they couldnt make no cash
The 'Motown' mash, other teams were badly gashed
'O' did the mash, they made the scoreboard flash
They did the mash, teams whined and tears did splash
 
The coin flip or the hat pull will be interesting. S. Durham will want to decrease the number of toothpicks in the hat to one and demand that they have the first pull. Hillary will draw for Orange and she will steal the hat and hide the toothpicks on top of her emails. Northwood will cut off the lights in the room and turn loose that running back till the other two surrender. Cedar Ridge will look in the window and complain about the other teams running up the number of toothpicks. Chapel Hill will stand beside Northwood and flood the room with water. (eg Two years ago Chapel Hill discovered the sprinkler system had been left on all night and day just as Orange pulled into the parking lot)

I remember 'the waterbed game'. Ky Muller from Orange found the only dry ground and caught a 50 yard bomb for a touchdown with no time on the clock for a 6-0 OHS win.
 
If the NCHSAA has anything to do with it had better be recorded. Of course if it is recorded and something fishy happens it will turn into a 'Zapruder Film' and the NCHSAA will turn into the Warren Commission' and proclaim the 'magic toothpick' theory thus telling Orange they must play a first round double-header because the 'hat pick' was by Skype and evidently they and Northwood didn't get the email.
 
What should a coach do when teams will not play his JV team. Or when teams he is playing on Friday night just fold up their JV programs. What should a player do who wants to play football but there is no middle school program and no JV program. How much responsibility does a Board of Education have to provide, by however that is defined, an athletic avenue program for a athlete. Is an athletic scholarship just as valuable to society as an academic scholarship. Are athletes being discriminated against by the B.O.E. by not providing a path to a secondary education.
 
The answer is some learn by seeing, others learn by hearing, then there are those that wee wee on the electric fence. My Mother once told me I would never find a better woman than my Dad married.
 
My grandmother told me that beer was horse urine. If that was the answer then was the question about the look or taste...
 
What city should host the NCHSAA which is now in Chapel Hill. Pick a city and explain why.
 
The Orange High JV program is super. They finished undefeated again and had several teams decide not to play them. Why are some football programs in Orange County slipping while the OHS football pipeline is surging.
 
Orange High has a pipeline to college. Recruiters visit the football facility frequently. The coaches preach the core courses and the GPA that it takes to qualify for a college program.
