Football High

Well the Muleshoe mules had another great season this year but unfortunately they had to move up in class and hit a Wall in the process that's right a small town south of San Angelo. Wall is a town that has a program
unlike most schools they just wait every ten to twenty years and then they have a class of kids that can play and have size. Wall player are standing on the backs of the players from 10 years ago yes they are pushed and praised to the point they believe they are better than everybody else And it works because they play that way. It is also conditioning they start at a young age getting these kids ready to play basketball. And they always have great basketball teams boys and girls.And that training transfers over to make really good football players speed and ball handling skills are what you have to have to play both games. And if you start working with the kids young they will have skills.
 It's like Shallowater they start these kids playing basketball when they are in the first grade and by the time they graduate they can play some ball. Specially the girls they don't have all the distractions the boys have  Hunting Motorcycles football baseball and everything else you can think of sports wise its basketball or you are know body. I had a man come up to me the other night and he said if your kid don't make the A-team in basketball you are not nobody at Shallowater. And that is right but it is also that way at Idalou in football
every little town has there thing.
 And what happened to the Paducah Dragons they had a great season until last night. Oh well I for one am glad the football season is coming to a end and hoping no more young men get hurt. This game does produce
way to many injures and some catastrophic. So the sooner its over the better. Just a few more weeks and it will all be over and we can get down to the real fun that is basketball. The big Caprock Tournament is right around the corner. Some of the best basketball in the state will be played right here in Lubbock Tx.that week. So come on down.
