Cheerleaders is normal people, or so I thought. I sent a reporter from Marshall University’s student paper The Parthenon to spy on a WVU cheerleader and compare them with a Herd cheerleader.

Here wuz the student journalist’s report.

It seems the WVU cheerleader wuz drivin’ her car and ran into a truck. The truck driver made her pull over into a parkin’ lot and git out of the car.

He took a piece of chalk and drew a circle on the pavement and told her to stand in the middle of the circle and not to leave it.

Furious, he went over and slashed the tires on her car. However, the cheerleader just started laughin’.

This made the man even angrier and he smashed her windshield. But the cheerleader laughed even harder.

Livid, the man broke all the car’s windows and then keyed the car. Now the cheerleader wuz laughin’ hysterically.

“What is so darn funny,” demanded the man.

The cheerleader giggled and said, “When you weren’t lookin’, I stepped out of the circle three times.”

Rah, rah, rah or is it raw, raw, raw?

Ennywho, last week I wuz a little off at 10-4 fer a 37-8 season mark. Can’t do that agin. Let’s try to git better in week four.

Ashland at Ironton: The home team keeps winnin’ this series. Let’s keep it goin’ at least this year. Ironton 17, Ashland 14.

South Point at Coal Grove: The Pointers has been sufferin’ injuries lately. The Hornets may or may not hurt them physically, but they will bruise their feelings. Coal Grove 38, South Point 14.

Rock Hill at Portsmouth: The Redmen will use their plethora of runnin’ backs against the Trojans’ star freshman back. Go with the groupies. Rock Hill 26, Portsmouth 21.

Gallipolis at Chesapeake: The Blue Devils likes to pass. The Panthers likes to run. Welp, this game wuz invented as a runnin’ game so I leans to the run. Chesapeake 42, Gallipolis 12.

Fairland at Waverly: The Dragons is better this year, but so is Waverly. Lots better. Waverly 31, Fairland 13.

Oak Hill at Symmes Valley: The Oaks is the preseason favorite to win the SOC, but they ain’t no favorite with the Viking fans. Oak Hill 24, Symmes Valley 21.

Sciotoville East at Green: Let’s talk about the real SOC favorites. East 36, Green 22.
