First off, Poky is short for Pocatello, and the Indians are their mascot. As a Poky Alum who hates the bitter cross town rival Highland, I say it's disappointing. There should have been a flag on the play and that should have been the end of it. Coach Harrison has since been reinstated as the coach with no further actions being taken. Just for the record though, screw Highland, Go Poky, and Poky Pride Never Dies!!!

Tom Harrison is a bastard.

That shot's cheaper than a sale at Wal-Mart.

That was the opening kickoff. The next time they cut the kid, and after that poky sent two kids at taysom which is ridiculous because taysom kicked it in the end zone everytime. It was an illigal hit because you can't hit the kicker until he goes 5 yards, the ball hits the ground, or another player.

“several times”?…certainly cheap, but why not kick the ball OB and send a swarm at the guy making a beeline toward your star…matters might change the next time. point of confusion…did the future Cardinal just repeatedly absorb the hits? what gives?

That wasn't an illegal hit. The way to stop that crap from happening is:
Block the punk from getting to your kicker
Execute an on-side kickHave a less tempting target kick off

Ia linebacker gets to the quarterback well after the ball is thrown, the it is a personal foul for roughing the quarterback. This is no different.

I kind of like Berman's & Rod's ideas for retaliation.
