Yeah, it's a little personal -- but you don't have to share if you don't want to. I just always think it's neat to try to understand where people are coming from when they post.

That said, I'm from Charlotte, NC. I was born in Charlotte, grew up in Matthews (just outside of Charlotte), went to school in Chapel Hill, and now I live in Charlotte. I've been around, huh?

Went to a party with my dad, came home with my mom. Wheaton, Maryland.

In some ways, it doesn't matter where you're from. If you went to UNC, you always think of it as being like home.

Dothan, AL here.

Yeah, I was at Independence from '93 to '97... although I would be going to Butler if I were in high school nowadays.

Upper Sandusky, OH.... no, not around Cedar Point, about an hour south of Sandusky. In the area of Findlay or Marion.

I was at Piedmont High JD.The school that stole you're football coach (Rusty Jester)He's ben a good one to.Back to back unbeaten seasons in a row.Do you keep up with high school football?

Looks like it worked out for both of us. You stole our coach, and we stole West Charlotte's coach -- and now we're both good.

The only high school football I really follow is what Independence is doing. I usually know who all the other good teams are in Charlotte every year, but that's about it.

I have seen some articles in the paper about Piedmont and how much Jester has turned it around there (weren't y'all terrible right before he came along). By the way, Jester was my weightlifting teacher for one semester.

cool. :) Did you like it very much?

Terrible would be a complement to that program before Jester came back.actualy he coached at Piedmont in the early 80's when i was in school.They went 7-3 in my last year before taking the job at Independence.You guys had a heck of a season last year,Congrats.I don't remember where Leak decided to go to school.You?

Leak went to Florida.

When I was in school (with Jester as our coach), we were okay -- but West Charlotte was the city power. We were usually second-best behind them. Once I left, we got really good. Figures....
