I actually can not disagree with you. My vote went to Raydar's performance (429). That is the way an open vote works. I did not vote for Obama either.

Millington is overrated? Thats why the last two years we were one game away from a conference championship and this year we won it. I dont really think Millington is overrated. If nate richardson had the best rushing performance in the state how come Mayville didnt make playoffs. Hoffman didnt just have 12 tackles, he had 6 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, 2 point conversion and a touchdown in one game.

Millington is far from overrated, those boys work hard on a daily basis. Hoffman kicked butt this year and the team as a whole was Excellent!! Like someone else said if Richardson was so good why didn't Mayville make playoffs? Millington Rocks and thats all there is to it. Hoffman is the bomb and there ain't no arguing that. Check him out on Youtube!!

I have to agree with a few other comments, Ken Hoffman may have laid down some of the hardest hits i have ever seen this season, but I too think there are at least two more people more deserving of the award.

Nate Richardson- Mayville
Raydar Williams- Kingston

Still talkin' football

First top ten of the year. After Friday's opening games, the TCA released it's first Area Top ten of the young season. In association with four area coaches, representing the four area conferences, along with the sports staff of the TCA, here it is: 1. Millington (1-0) 53 pts (2) 2. Reese (1-0) 52 pts (2) 3. USA (1-0) 45 pts 4. Frankenmuth (1-0) 37 pts (1) 5. Birch Run (1-0) 32 pts (1) 6. Marlette (1-0) 19 pts 7. Ubly (0-1) 17 pts 7. Harbor Beach (1-0) 17 pts 9. Cass City (1-0) 12 pts 10. Garber (1-0) 11 pts All of this will ofcourse settle itself out as the week goes on, but I think the biggest surprise is the fall of Ubly after the opening game loss to USA. Word out of the Thumb is that Bearcat QB Jordan Kaufman broke his collarbone and is out for 7 to 8 weeks, which essentially is the entire season. Ubly must now rely upon a sophomore quarterback to lead them in the GTE, which could open things up for Harbor Beach and Marlette to take the reigns in the conference. As for

The Big Game.

Here it is. Well, it's here...the game that everyone around here has been looking forward to all season long. Frankenmuth at Millington. Both teams are 7-0 (6-0 TVC-E) and the Cardinals and the Eagles could not be more evenly matched. They have the exact same number of playoff points (85.714) at this point of the season; both teams blew out Vassar and held the Vulcans without a defensive TD (kickoff return against the Eagles and punt return vs the Cards); both teams blew out Bridgeport and North Branch. And both teams had to play their best to hold off Garber (Muth won 17-7 at Muth while Millington won 20-14 at Garber). One game where things were different was when both played Birch Run. Muth had to use a last minute field goal to win 23-20 while Millington blew out the Panther 45-17, both games played in Birch Run. The game also has the best storylines associated with any game in the area. Roger Bearss, who was the Frankenmuth head varsity football coach from 2001-05, is now
