Its already 1-3 isn't it?

Yeah, PV is 1-3

but I feel if they can beat JIB,JJK,Pound, and Appy, they would make the playoffs.
I think playing such a murderer's row will help, maybe steal one from GC/CW.

I liked Robbins' quote in the paper, "They have a nice ball club, not a great one, but a good one." Classic Robbins.

Here's my personal favorite:
"Are we a 10-0 team? I'm not going to tell you that, but I'm going to tell you that we could be."

So his (according to him) potentially 10-0 team being blasted 35-0 by an opposing team means that that team is good, not great.

Makes sense.

Now don't you know if a Phil coached team is 4-0 now instead of 1-3 its great coaching, if they are 1-3 its players not doing worth a crap. Thats always been my problem with Phil. He is a legend, but he's the star of Varsity Blues. Its about him, seldom about the players. PV could turn around and end up 7-3 for all I know, but if they do, it's going to be due to the players, not due to him.

Could this team be 10 and 0 don't know that but if the had scheduled some of the pancakes some of these other teams do they would be 4and 0 right now. because Phil tries to play the best teams he can get to prepair for district play he is now 1 and 3 lets see how the boys respond now because the important season begins Friday. With what they have been through the last three weeks the season won't get much tougher, they need to get healthy and prepair for one game at a time. as that will be the most important game of the year for them now the next one. Take care of business and the playoffs are possible, if not 1 and 9 could be the end result if they dwell on the past.

Agree 100%.

I'd much rather see PV test themselves by playing really tough OOC games, instead of breezing thru ****ty cupcakes.

If PV uses their losses the right way, and the toughness from losing those games helps instead of hinders, they can win 4/5 out of 6 remaining games.
Hell, 6 out of 6 if they play their hardest, and catch a few breaks.
PV always plays GC tough, GC(3-1) people I guarantee will not count PV as an easy game, neither will JIB(4-0), CW(4-0), or JJK(4-0).
