This week we'll have the following updates for you:
Tuesday night we'll have an early week update on soccer and volleyball...
Wednesday we'll have Pigskin Preview up and this week's edition we'll have a special guest. In addition to our segment w/Steve Jias, there will be one other guest. Let's see if you can figure out who it is...
1) He's one of my favorite people to "tailgate" with...
2) He's extremely loyal to one of the teams in the Deckerville-Ubly game...
3) He seemed to dissappear out of thin air a few weeks ago...
Got an idea who it is? Then you'll surely want to hear the "Voice of the Thumb" back for ONE NIGHT ONLY!!!!
So tell everyone you know, who wants one last chance to hear this broadcast legend to make sure to download this program...early and often. LOL
Thursday we'll have a mid-week update on volleyball and soccer...
Friday, we'll have complete coverage of both Ubly-Deckerville and Dryden-North Huron. Look for updates as to what happened, lots of photos and of course, post-game comments from the coaches themselves.
In two weeks of posting comments from coaches, we've had those items downloaded a whopping 112 times...
The audio we put out last week was downloaded nearly 200 times combined...
My point, this is heating up and we'll continue to give you the only online audio coverage of high school sports in the area.
With that in mind, I've got a couple of other ideas up my sleeve, but we'll just wait to see how they pan out before we making any announcements on them...

Week six standings...things are tightening up
Rick Glaza continues to lead the pack, although Twocentsworth made a huge move this week to pull within a game. I survived Upset Friday and am within a game of third place, so the question is...can I stop Glaza from winning the prize, by making up four games in three weeks. We'll see...

Rick Glaza 54-12 .818
Twocentsworth 53-13 .803

Week 6 scores
Sandusky 20, Harbor Beach 0 - Steve Jias stopped in there for a quarter and gave the early indication this one was not goign to be a barn burner.Deckerville 42, Marlette 6 - Yes I did say my gut told me this could be an upset, it turns out it was something I ate. To hedge my bets, I picked Dekcerville in all of my picks contests. According to one poster in a previous post, I have no credibility now. As I said to him, If people lost ther credibility after being wrong in one case, there would be no weathermen left.
Still prediciting a 40-20 win for Ubly.
BCAS 31, Cass City - Does anyone want the GTW title or what?
EPBP 16, Reese 7 - Actually it looks like the Lakers do, as they have a shot at a share of the title if they can beat Cass City in week 8. That win would also help their playoff hopes, as EPBP needs to win their last three in order to get an automatic spot.
Mayville 36, Bad Axe 28 O.T. - The Hatchets might not have won this one, but they have suddenly become pretty competitive.
Dryden 22, Memphis 19 - With North Huron's unimpressive performance against CPS, will next week's showdown between the Cardinals and Warriors be as good as everyone thinks it can be. BTW, if you check out the NH Homecoming picture in a previous post, you'll see Anthony Irvine had his arm in a sling, hope this injury isn't serious, because they'll need him Friday.
Peck 42, Kingston 22 - No suprises here.
Vassar 43, USA 23 - The Patriots are asking themselves, how soon to basketball season.
North Huron prepares for showdown with Dryden
The Warriors had total control of this one even though the score (28-16) would not reflect that. CPS didn’t put up any points until the third quarter – and they were defensive points when they got a safety.
The D stood up well for North Huron, not allowing any offensive points until the fourth quarter when they gave up two quick scores. One of the highlights of the game was the goal line stand as the Warriors turned the Tigers away only to give up two points on a safety three plays later. They put some of their younger players in to get some reps, but the D held tight when it mattered as Erik Dhyse came up with a big interception that sealed the deal for North Huron.
Kevin Rice had a big night for the Warriors with 3 TDS as a wide receiver and also had a big sack toward the end of the game.
The Warrior will prepare for a huge game this coming Friday against Dryden. They need to get a victory on enemy ground to keep their hopes alive for a league title alive.

A look back at Ubly's win
BROWN CITY - Another dominating performance this week by Ubly, who jumped out to a 36-0 lead at the half en route to a 48-8 win.
For a team that prides itself on running the ball and controlling the clock, the Bearcats scored so quickly in the first that Brown City had a time of possession edge of around 16 minutes to 8 minutes.
For Ubly, they scored 2:12 into the game when Keith Kramer scored on a 5 yard run. Later in the first the Bearcats got the ball back with 4:03 in the quarter and 40 seconds later they scored on a 30 yard Td run from Jordan Kaufman. Justin Cleary ran in the 2 point conversion for a 14-0 lead.
Ubly got the ball back with 1:18 remaining in the first and scored on the first play from scrimmage when Kaufman reached paydirt after a 55 yard scamper.
Justin Cleary and Kramer added one more TD each to give Ubly the 36-0 half time lead.
In the second half, Eric Booms and Bryant Messing scored for the Bearcats.
While this wasn't a perfect game for Ubly, it was a little sloppy at times, as coach Sweeney put it, the effort was there. The Bearcats clinched an eighth straight playoff appearance with the win and can clinch a share of the GTE crown with a win over Deckerville next week.
Early predicition, Ubly wins 40-20.
