one of my favorite threads was the Burns/Franklin thread a few years ago. I laughed every 10 minutes it seemed. I know quite a few Franklin ppl and worked there for a year, nice area..safe travels

Of course I'm biased but that was the greatest thread ever on this forum. It had it all & had everyone's attention. Even spilled over into the stadium with the music that was played.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Franklin posters, Shelby posters, & the whole NC Prep family. Hope it's a great, safe Turkey day for all of you. Please take a moment to think of those that are less fortunate & esp. those that are away from loved ones while serving the country.

Shelby rolls, the only shocking thing that could happen this year is if the lions don't win the state title.

pffffft

Theyre good for 3A/3AA because 3A weaker than wet paper this year.

They're not getting passed the 2nd round in 4A, going through Kannapolis(who Shelby has never beat even when they were both 3A), Dudley, Catholic, East Forsyth, and Scotland would never happen.

Take Scotland out and they MIGHT get to the 4A lEast LOL!!
For the record Mr Chopper if you check back I believe we beat Kannapolis(AL Brown) 7-6 in semi finals in 1988 in an over achieving year as we went for our 3rd straight championship appearance. Check your records

We stopped you guys on 4th and like 6 inches and of course your fans in which one was sitting behind me on Shelby side talking smack the entire game thought it was controversial spot but yes we won the game

Not much to talk about in this game so, a heads up for the Heel fans. I live in Navarre down here & a RB named Michael Carter is coming to Chapel Hill next year. He's not the fastest or strongest but he's savvy & knows how to follow blockers. He needs a year in a college weight room but, he's going to be a good one. Had 300 yds rushing with 4 td's + a 99 yd KO return in a second round playoff game last week. Remember his name!

41-0 3Q....Coach Brooks gives permission for the running clock. Wanted to take time to wish the Shelby crew good luck the rest of the way. Not that we were ever a threat but all you guys have been nothing but class this week. Everyone associated with the Franklin program has said the same about your program. Will be rooting for your team to host another trophy!

That Franklin fan base was great they were good and loud for their kids ! I like that

45 needed 24 for his 2000 yards wasn't it ? He got exactly that in first half

Congrats to the Lions on to round three and best of luck in the future to the Panthers

LA your sons long passes were absolutely beautiful tonight
