Okay all this wildcats have going for themselves is sports because no one with a brain graduates from LVHS at least rancho have people who are intelligent. If rancho moved to a better location like u guys did rancho would murder u. If u noticed las vegas only started to do well when u went to a richer and nicer neighborhood. In general we dont have to do any of that cuz we are gonna be back on top like the old good rancho days.
To Bone stays home: I completely agree! Like...I heard of some great Student Council/ & SBO President last year that was tired of seeing Rancho win the Spirit Links...So he worked together with his council to FIX it. And, for the second year, LVHS has won the Spirit Links competition. I mean if Rancho wanted it THAT bad, they COULD have gotten it. But...Nah. I think Rancho's football peak was last year, and even then, what was the score? A million to ten still? But either way, it was a good game! A VERY good game. It's always a good game when the Wildcats get on the field. Even from Hawai'i we have people cheering them on, sh00t, even in NORWAY there were people rooting for them! I think everyone wished they were a Wildcat though...Really, I don't see why they wouldn't... ;D (& I was jk about the 'great SBP'. He wasn't THAT cool. I heard he just had an amazing Student Body & Presidents...Like the Junior Class President. :)
Eeewww Tommy. you SUCK. We've had the bone for 14 yrs. straight; wouldn't Rancho try to fix something within these 14 yrs. to actually try to win the bone back? I haven't seen it in my 4 yrs. of high school and I didn't see it when I was a cat buddy. I think you're mad cuz YOU WISH YOU WERE A WILDCAT!!!! :)
I wouldn't be too sure about losing the bone. The coaches at Vegas are incredible, and I don't know of any other coaches who can top them. Also, Vegas kids have heart and, though they are a bit big-headed, they always play their hearts out on that field! I wouldn't be complaining if I were you or Rancho, because a 44-0 loss, is...Embarassing, first off, and lets say the kick was not in our favour. We still would've won by over 40 points. Lets say that half...Even 3/4s of our touchdowns didn't happen cuz "we cheated"...We still would've won. Even if it were by ONE point, we still would have won. ...Maybe if Rancho had the ball for an extra 10 seconds the game would've tied? We will never know...But Sir Herk stays home, where it belongs. :)
Who cares they cheat anayway. And they will lose the bone next year. They would have lost thier jv game which they won by one point. Good team don't getme wrong. But when you have refs calling kicks good that are clearly not. And not calling facemask penelties. Thier excuse I cannot call it from that far. But that's ok. This squad will learn from thier few mistakes and take the next one hands down. And what's funny is everyone saw the kick goe way off. Then Vegas' coach had the nerve to complain. You guys suck. But like I said wait until next year Vegas. Just make sure the bone is polished and ready to go.
