Put Doug out for the year. This is why we put Ham #11 on our arms with tape.

Other than the the loss I remember it was the first time I had ever seen those long plastic horns at a football game. The horns I refer too are generally used at soccer games (or they were then) and it was like playing a trumpet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8721194350980199858.post-51572857710247276422009-12-30T07:43:21.722-05:002009-12-30T07:43:21.722-05:00anon,
comments like yours make this site great. I...anon,<br />comments like yours make this site great. I'd love to know more details, but I understand the need to protect those involved...from something that happened 20 yrs ago. :) There may still be warrants out.<br /><br />As far as that project you mentioned. A noble cause for sure. As soon as I'm compensated (handsomely) for doing the research that would be required, I'll get right on that.<br /><br />It's not a bad idea, but would take so much research and knowledge. The more recent ones would be easier, but there'd be tons of players who played at small colleges, or walked on that never got any mention in the paper.<br /><br />I would really like to compile a list of Orrville All-Ohioans. Again, easier with the more recent years, but the ones from several decades ago would be tough...and research would again be required.Red Rider Sports Blog (Tim Snyder)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16834154643268803651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8721194350980199858.post-51696216984459256732009-12-29T20:58:22.766-05:002009-12-29T20:58:22.766-05:00yeah you forgot to mention there was a Red "O...yeah you forgot to mention there was a Red "O" in the middle of the field that royally ticked off Ironton. Alledgedly there were a couple of Orrville Alumni who were OU students who painted the field the night before. There's more to the story, but I need to protect the guilty. It had nothing to do with the outcome...but still a good story. <br /><br />The 1989 team had 5 seniors? One of the smallest senior classes ever at Orrville I suspect. A great junior class that had at least 7 college players carried that team. <br /><br />I think your next project should be to track down all the OHS graduates who played in college.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
