I just learned about this web site a few days ago and each time I have been on it I have read new information about our football team. What a terrific idea to have a web site like this for a high school activity. A special thanks should be given to the person(s) who have created this web site and keep it updated so often. This is definitely better than waiting a week to read the football articles in our local newspaper. That paper has written some very NEGATIVE comments in articles about the football team. The writer must think that he's covering the Chiefs and not high school athletes. Keep up the good work on this site. And Go Pirates. On to the Playoffs.

You finally are having the type of season that Piper deserves; the type of season that my team should have had. You're coming together. I wish I was still playing. I would love to be able to run on the field with you. Just to get in one more hit, to line up and run one more play, get one more sack, celebrate one more win. I still think about it all the time. Soon you will be thinking about it also. And you won't be able to go back. Realize where you are and what you have. Not many Piper teams have been District Champions. But that's what you can be. Win for all former Piper football teams that didn't finish their season the way that you can. I'm proud to have been a Pirate - You guys be proud too. Go take it.

Good job guys. Good luck this Thursday. Regarding the previous notes in this guest book regarding obnoxious fans; they are right. Adults need to stop yelling at players during these games. There is no call for this. These are high school games. If anyone yells at a kid it better be their own. I'm afraid there are going to be fights in the stands unless the administrators remove these rowdy fans from the game.

This season started out really bad and I was afraid that it was going to end bad as well. Practices were starting out just like last year. Nobody was putting in the effort that we needed to win and I don't believe we ever started putting any effort into anything we did until the second half of the Imac game. Finally I'm actually tired when I go home from practice becuase we know that in order to keep winning we have to work hard all week. I just wish we had realized that sooner. I can't wait to see how far we get this season and I hope the rest of the players are looking forward to it as much as I am. I want to thank Coach Lipovac for getting on us at practice all the time. I think those up downs really changed our practices for the better. Before you coach we never had to do anything like that, it was just go to practice and get it over with. You've done a great job with our offense and I'm glad you came to Piper this year. Hopefully the coaching staff doesn't change at all for next year.

Well, the e-mailer was right -- the Pirates have won four straight games and have clinched one of the two berths in the state playoffs from this district. A win over winless Basehor Thursday will make the streak five and give them the district title.

We have really enjoyed wathing our boys play this season. The turnaround has been fun to watch. Sitting in the stands watching the games has been fun, but what has been even more enjoyable is knowing that our boys know what it means to be a team. The type of players we have on our team is why we are so proud of their success. Our son has told us many stories throughout this fall about the type of players we have on our team. Maybe others aren't as aware of what has been taking place. The wins seem even more enjoyable knowing what type of players we have. Our son tells us stories about the team almost every night. They are so fun to hear. In the game last night Scott Lipovack was so sick that he spent most of the day in the nurse's office. He could barely talk during the game but played the whole game and Aaron Dulaney the center called the snap count for the team. Jeff Hamilton has been playing the last several games with a broken foot and Keith mcKinley still practices with an injury from the first game of the season. Nick Jobe has his own fan club at the games. Every week the linemen go out to eat together the night before the game. Sam McCord's parents provided a team dinner for the team on Wednesday night and had t-shirt's made for the team. Jake hendrix has had a very good season and this is his first year playing football. The entire defense has come together to play so well. My husband and I get on this site all the time to read the news of our team. We would like to hear more about our individual players. Maybe some players could write stories about each other and have news that most parents don't even hear about. We like this site very much and would like to hear even more about our boys. We know they are all WINNERS. We are so proud of them. Maybe some of us parents can all get together to do something for our boys before Tuesday's game.

But you have to take it. The other teams won't give you anything. You have to go after it. Don't let up. Keep your intensity and focus where it should be. On the field as a team not as individuals.

Although I haven't been able to be in the stands at your games, I have been there in spirit. And now, finally it's "Piper Spirit" and from what I hear it's contagious. Sounds like everyone in your area is getting a serious case of "Piper fever". And you know what - there isn't a cure for it. The only thing that makes it feel better is - more wins! Thanks for this web site. I and everyone else who may be located far away can actually feel like we are there (well almost there). Guys, you're living my dream, and you're living you're dream too. If you don't realize it, you will someday. Sounds like you have a great group of coaches- LISTEN to them. They will pull you through, push you through, believe in you, LISTEN to them. Their words will echo in your minds for a long time after you've taken off your pads for the last time. I love your web site, the music (We are the Champions", "Right Now")those were the perfect songs to have on there. And thanks to the dude from "class of '03 ?" who put the lyrics in this guest book. Go back and read those lyrics again; they describe your team. And the new countdown is great. It now says that the time is ticking down until the opening kickoff. Don't let the time tick down to the end of your season. Keep playing. Keep playing hard. I'm envious. I wish I could be on your sideline with you. Continue playing. I'm proud to have been a Pirate.

Great season men. I never intended to sign on, but I have to share a story with you that happened last night in the backyard next door to me while I was raking leaves. 3 young small boys are playing football. Tackle football. The boy playing quarterback keeps refering to himself as "Scott Lipovac", another boy calls himself "Shawn Lampson". So I stop raking and watch. The boy who is "Lipovac" throws a pass to "Lampson", "Lampson" is running across the backyard for a TD, and then the third boy, a much bigger boy, runs after "Lampson" and tackles him hard, real hard. The third boy gets up and yells "I'm Nick Jobe". I laughed and laughed. Just to let you know that there are a lot of little boys looking up to you. All of you are the heroes to a lot of young boys. Good Luck Tuesday.

You showed everybody what you are made of and what a lot of heart and hard work can do. CONGRATULATIONS! This is something you will remember for a long time. Our size of our crowd was unbelievable. What a turn out for the team. Here's the big question. Why don't we get that turnout for all of our games both home and away? let's make an effort to be this impressive at all of our games. The crowd was definitely the 12th man on the field and you players need to know that every person in our stands was cheering for you and is very proud of you.

The season game ball goes to Coach Dorian for coaching our awesome defense and making adjustments when necessary. He did an awesome job and kept us in the games to the end! Here's to you, Coach Dorian. Can't wait until next year.

This was a really fun year for the football team and the student body and all fans that attended the game. We started off the year only beleiving in ourselfs but when that Imac game came I think that gave us many believers. Now it is a tradition that needs to be carried on in piper that we will "refuse to lose" it is no longer and option. This was a really fun season and next season we will no longer be the underdogs in everygame we will be the team that carries on the pirate tradition and everyone fears us. Thanks to all of the students and parents that came to support our team on Sat. night i really don't think that we could have gone this far with out u guys thanks The pirates will be back and better next year

And another season game ball should go to Coach Lipovack for coaching the Piper offense. The offense improved 200% from last year and from the start of the season till the end. It sounds like he also got the players to believe in themselves. Other game balls should go to Coach Tatro for his organization of the whole program. He now has things going for Piper. And Coach Hartzorn and Coach Ash for all their help and support that they gave to our boys. All the coaches should be commended for an amazing season. And special thanks to all the Pirate players for their hard work during the whole season. They played hard. It was a great season.

My first comment goes to the whole team...AWESOME JOB THIS SEASON! I have loved every minute of every game. I hope as fans we did your job! When some people got really down on the team you didn't listen, you kept your head up and stayed focused. You believed the whole time that you could do it and I am Proud of you all! To the seniors: You boys showed a lot of leadership. We will miss every single one of you! Thanks for making this season fun! GOOD LUCK IN ALL THAT YOU DO! To My Junior Boys: I don't know where to begin Though we had some injuries you stayed tough and made it through the season. Next year we are going all the way! Stay focused in the off season and keep working to get better. P.S.~From your guy's first win of the season at Immac my dad has not stopped talking about how proud he is of you boys and how he just loves to watch you all play. He said you all played one heck of a game against Eudora that no other team could have. HE IS SO PROUD OF ALL OF YOU!! (ESPECIALL YOU NEWT)

Wow! what a season! I just wish I could go watch you boys play another game. Our weeks will just seem empty until basketball starts. It was fun. I hope that there are a lot of football players that go out for basketball and wrestling and spread "piper fever" to our other sports. Thanks for making this season so enjoyable. I will always remember seeing the hard hits on defense and seeing our passing game go up and down the field in the Eudora game. We were close. Next year can't come soon enough.

Great year guyz. It was awesome to watch your games. I like reading all of these messages. We hope basketball has a web site like this. I know of others going out for football next year who didn't go out this year. I want to know who is Marlo and who let him be in charge of giving out game balls?

A special "Thanks" to all you coaches. You all have your own jobs to do and you did it well. I truly appreciate all the support and hard work you have taken to make our kids better. I hope they have all learned valuable lessons this year. The words of support and how they also need to lead each other was so great to hear at the awards ceremony last night. It was their time to be recognized and you coaches did a great job in doing so. We are so proud of their accomplishments and hopefully they realized that in receiving your kind, funny and to the point comments. Also, a special Congrats to "Get er Done". Thank you and many other guys for being leaders. Look forward to seeing more of that next year with all our seniors. Thanks again.... See ya next year!

Not out for a winter sport? Then, the weight room is where YOU need to be! Coach Ash and I will be there, will you? If you guys would just come to the weight room and put in some work you would find that you like lifting and you would be surprised with the success that you will have. Coach Tatro has a great program and it will be done the right way, so don't be shy. Get it done now so you guys can really get er' done on the field next season!

Is there going to be a basketball web site like this? If so, what is the web site address? This was fun to read. All sports should have a site like this.

Another game ball should go to "Observer Sloan" for his column "Just My Observations". How do you "observe" the outcomes of the playoff games this week. (Who are Marlo's 1 and 2?)
