It's HIGH SCHOOL football season, too!

The Rivals rankings for top 100 high school football programs came out today, and there were a few notables to... well... note. Damn that limited vocabulary of mine.

(1) Trinity - Euless, TX: Of course its a Texas team from the middle of fucking nowhere at the top of the list. There's shit else to do in bumfuck Texas than play high school football. They just picture that the tackling dummy is someone wearing a polo shirt and tackle it extra hard out of spite. "You think you're better than me, city boooooooy?"

(22) South Panola - Batesville, MS: I dig SP because they sell t-shirts outside their stadium that say "University of South Panola". I dig it because they make no bones about being a football factory and not giving two shits about educating anyone. Sounds like Florida State.

(44) Brentwood Academy - Brentwood, TN: We played against BA in high school, and I can attest that they are the toughest group of incredibly rich white kids you'll ever meet. I'm serious. You get dirt on his Lacoste sneakers or scratch his diamond-crusted Rolex, and Manfred Thurston Hallowell IV will fuck you up!

(66) Olive Branch - Olive Branch, MS: Don't know anything about them, but they've come up second to "the U" for a while now. North Mississippi ain't big enough for the two teams! Seriously, north Mississippi has two high school football teams in the top 100? No wonder incoming Ole Miss players can't read.

(78) Montgomery Bell Academy - Nashville, TN: Again, played against MBA back in the day. No new jokes about white kids. Just refer back to my BA comments, and add in something about how gay their logo is. Way to just slap together your letters without regard for aesthetics!
