Ready for football?
Hank Williams, Jr. will soon be
screaming the question into tele
vision cameras, so let me go
ahead and ask it. “Are you ready
for some football?”
Now I realize that might sound
like a rather odd question, here in
the middle of the summer with
afternoon temperatures reaching
into the upper 90s, but just as sure
as day follows night, we’re gonna
have football before you know it.
The professional teams are
already engaging in those so
called controlled scrimmages, and
the Falcons can use all the time
possible to try to sort out their
personnel mess. There will be a
new quarterback, for sure. Former
Houston Oiler Chris Chandler
will call the signals for new coach
Dan Reeves.
That’s just one of the prob
lems. You know there are more,
since the team finished 3-13 last
season.
The University of Georgia will
be looking for a full season out of
running back Robert Edwards of
Washington County. If he’s
healthy, and if Mike Bobo can
complete a few passes, the ‘Dogs
could be considerably better.
The defensive secondary, for
once, won’t be a problem. Half of
it could be manned by the talent
ed Bailey brothers from Folkston.
And don’t you think Georgia
coaches already know there’s
another Bailey brother at Charlton
County who is perhaps the best
player in the family. Drool, drool!
It’s on the high school level
that I get my greatest satisfaction,
though. Quite simply, I love high
school football. It’s still pure,
competitive and entertaining. 1
always say the few bucks you
shell out to see a high school foot
ball game is your best entertain
ment value.
The high school season will be
here before you know it, with the
Corky Kell Classic at the Georgia
Dome on Aug. 30 kicking off the
public school season.
