    Someguy, for someone who isn't clever enough to come up with their own name, you sure do have a lot to say. You're a prime example of what I was talking about. You're not some drunk at a major league baseball game, have a little respect when posting, eh? Sorry if I offended you with my "self-righteous" attitude.

    On another note, I agree with Anon and Chris Kal, unfortunately it does not seem that our game will be aired, but hey... those boys will play their hearts out, and would probably appreciate the recognition. However, I guess the excitement of a hard-earned game is all one can ask for! :]

  • DERBYALLDAY - 2 years ago

    Derby's gonna beast. Seriously. You should Show that game. GO RAIDERS! :)

  • northwest fan - 2 years ago

    go northwest!!! we've got the poll so far, let's keep it up!!

  • NH - 2 years ago

    hey cheshire rams person, im from north haven and totally agree. i do hate your town due to ive played you guys many time, but no other teams here or leauge compares to what we have

  • cheshire rams. - 2 years ago

    no scc team is a "has been" school put your rham,rockyhill,or northwest against cheshire even north haven and you would regret typeing those words over the internet. North Haven Cheshire gets my vote.

  • rham fan - 2 years ago

    i am an alumni at rham, and i am a huge supporter of the program. but I have to admit that rham does not stack up against any of these other teams. east catholic is terrible too, thats the only reason that this should be a good game. derby and ansonia are has been schools. their work rate has been terrible from what i have seen this year. north haven and cheshire are both "has-been" programs. they wont bring anything good to nbs. i think the best matchup is the northwest vs rocky hill game. northwest and rocky hill have dominated rham the last 5 years at least. those two teams have great programs and I think they would be best for nbc to air. northwest has about 600 kids from what i have read, and they easily handled new britain a few weeks ago, one of the biggest schools in the state.

  • Chris Kal - 2 years ago

    I'm coming home from college in NY just for the Derby/Ansonia game. I don't care if you air the game on tv and in all honesty, I don't think the students at DHS or AHS care that much either because as far as I know, they will all be at the game anyway. I haven't experienced this game since I was an 8th grader when the "Division Street Rivalry Game" was last played. I still remember that game when they actually used to paint the arrowhead in the middle of the field. All in all somebody better keep a spot for me along the fence because I'm pretty sure the bleachers will all be packed. As the former Mayor Garofalo would say, "LET'S GO WIN BIG RED!"

  • anon. - 2 years ago

    I'm really hoping for the Derby/Ansonia game to get aired. The schools' rivalry has been going on for over a century and I might add Derby will not get blown out of the water, I heard they're not too bad this year. It will be a tough game and there will be so many supporters there, it would be an honor to get the valley recognized for something good for once. So I think we should all stop bashing each others towns because any of the games will be a good game to air.

  • RHAM - 2 years ago

    RHAM ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =]

  • Cho - 2 years ago

    asian who plays football, no one cares what you say, ur asian.

  • sam - 2 years ago

    northwest catholic football!!!!! gonna be the best game. and derby is gonna get pooped on.

  • GO NORTHWEST!!!! - 2 years ago

    Oh yeah, to the guy that left the third comment, we have more like 600 students, but we also have the advantage of kids from other places and maybe other states. Like we have some kids from Mass. Anyways, NWC will beast anyone that stands in their way!
    But I think that the best school rivalries and the best game would be NWC vs. East Catholic (a.k.a. NWC rejects). Unfortunately we don't play them this year and thats a shame because that game would've been intense. Believe me, the Derby and Ansonia rivalry is nothing compared to ours.

  • Someguy - 2 years ago

    Give me a break Somegirl, quit trying to act like youre above everyone.. were all highschool students trying to get our point across. "negative attitude" - thats what we call some true school spirit. Screw Ansonia! Screw Derby! and most of all Screw YOU!

  • The Asian who plays football - 2 years ago

    RHAM will win and it should be covered it's the annual Halloween matchup against east. Everyone vote for RHAM or don't vote at all RHAM 4-3 prediction of score RHAM wins! 30-27

  • Somegirl - 2 years ago

    I don't believe what I have seen in these posts, high levels of immaturity from what I'm assuming are adults? Calling highschool children chumps is quite unnecessary. From what I've seen, although I have not read every comment, Ansonia vs. Derby should be broadcasted due to their school spirit. This may be bias speaking since I am a senior at Ansonia highschool, but I do believe these two highschools have the most support from their small student bodies than any large school could obtain, especially with their negative attitude. However, I do wish the best to whatever team wins this opportunity, it will be a great one.

  • random - 2 years ago

    NH- Chesire should be the game, they both have playoff chances, the other games are either terrible or no excitment, Nh - cheshire is gunna be a hard hitting, blodd sweat and tears game. This should be the game of the week becasue there is no better game, derby is gunna get blown out every one knows that , ppl are saying well the history is big, thats great, however no one wants to watch a 45-6 game, If NH and chesire play then you will see and game come down to the final wire.

  • Go Ansonia! - 2 years ago

    Vote for Ansonia! That game is bringing back the rivalry. It;s gunna be a good game.

  • DERBYYYYY - 2 years ago

    SCC, they are not boring to watch, they have improved and even they go way back, they are just as important as other towns. Derby has its pride and its not about their standings, they keep it real & true.

  • SCC - 2 years ago

    Not trying to put down anybody, but the only game that looks to be good is Cheshire at North Haven. Derby and Ansonia may go back far, but the game will be a blowout and thats just boring to watch. The other two games will not even be that competitive either, although better than the crummy NVL games. Let North Haven and Cheshire be the game for the week, this game decides their post season fates.

  • Jim Spencer - 2 years ago

    To JIM SPENCER out there,
    its not that fly of you to be using other ppls names u rea. k thanks

  • North Haven Vs. Cheshire - 2 years ago

    North Haven and Cheshire are fighting for a spot in the playoffs if Cheshire loses there basically out. If North Haven loses there basically out i dont know how you can cover a game that dosent matter and the only game i see here that matters is the North Haven Cheshire game.

  • bran - 2 years ago

    lol k enjoy your lose to fuckin fermi of enfield u jokes lmao yerr 3 and 3 you dont even have a shot at the playoffs anymore you dont even no what your saying shut your mouth

  • shut up - 2 years ago

    rham ownz everY1 we are str8 up G no 1 can beat us dont even tri 2 g0 again$t us we wiLL rape y0u lyke our teachers rape our stud3nts

  • DERBY! - 2 years ago

    Just because the two smallest towns don't win a lot and aren't as noticed, these games have been intense since 1902. MORE THAN 100 YEARS! They're little cities with big histories. You won't be disappointed watching this game. COME TO THE GAME FRIDAY NIGHT!

  • NoH - 2 years ago

    who the hell cares about those little small towns.. CHESHIRE AND NORTH HAVEN all the way!

  • bran - 2 years ago

    just look at who derby... ansonia... rham...rocky hill...northwest catholic and east catholic have on there schedule like you cant compare one of those schools to who cheshire or north haven play this shouldent even be a hard choice if you no anything about football now a days... you no that derby and ansonias programs have now become jokes and if u want to compete you have to be in the southern connecticut conference... i also find it funny how derby had 1 win in the last 3 years in the SCC then they went to the pequat and now they have 3 and they still dont even have a winning record.... just think about it

  • NH - SCC - 2 years ago

    North Haven Chesire game for the win....derby and ansonia are god awful...hense the divisions...no one cares about derby....they are so great that they moved down a division because they couldnt handle the constant whopping they were taking from every team in the SCC...get a hobby and vote for NH vs Chesire....and derby..congrats on the 3 wins this year...NH would win states every single year if they played midget football teams too...garbs

  • NWC football lover - 2 years ago

    northwest is by far the best...you are all going down

  • NH - 2 years ago

    NH will run over Derby they SUCK. And whats up with the Pequot league? total joke... Lets see a real game North Haven v Cheshire.

    Andrews actually wrong Derby hasnt scored since 1902

  • ANSONIA ALL THE WAY! - 2 years ago

    vote for ansonia vs derby!!!!! you won't be dissapointeddddd

  • nate - 2 years ago

    derby is terrible.. dont vote for them last year we beat them by 50 points lol
    the nh chesire game is gonna be a good one chesire one of the best offense agianst north haven.. on of the best defenses

  • SCC - 2 years ago

    north haven and cheshire is gonna acually be a good game the SCC is 15 times more compediative then fairfeild county or the garbage pequat league if you were to put any team in this poll up against cheshire or north haven they would get recked astleast by 35 points if you want to see a good game where acually good teams play eachother... vote for north haven vs cheshire

  • DERBYY - 2 years ago

    Andrew is really mistaken. Derby won and crushed many teams this year. They were also crushed. The Derby & Ansonia rivalry caused the two high schools to become friends with each other. They still have their town's pride. This game WILL be aired. These teams haven't played in a few years but they go way back since 1902. They are two of the smallest towns/school in CT but their spirit, pride, traditions, and rivalry is one of the biggest in the state!

  • ansonia - 2 years ago

    I may be going for ansonia on the win of the derby vs. ansonia game but who ever thinks it will be a bad game (andrew) you are very mistaken. I do not think it will be one sided this yr i think it will be amazing. i know that both teams have been working there butts off to make this a very memorable game. btw look at derbys record they are only one loss behind ansonia so i dont see where you get the "no points up in 45 yrs" from. but i am going ansonia all the way :)

  • ANSONIA ALL THE WAY! - 2 years ago

    the ansonia vs derby game is going to be an outstanding game! i definitely recommend everyone to be there. ansonia's been working extremely hard and we're ready for derby! GO CHARGERS!

  • INDIANS - 2 years ago

    GO INDIANS

  • Andrew - 2 years ago

    Are you kidding?
    Whoever says Ansonia v Derby has got to be kidding... Derby hasn't put up a point within the past 45 years.

  • ansonia wr - 2 years ago

    this game is definetly no doubt the biggest game of the week and no reason it shouldnt be aired. this will be my first ansonia derby game ever and i just cant wait for friday night 7 pm to come, not even that but its the night before halloween which makes it even better. one if not the biggest rivals of ansonia, cant wait. ANSONIA CHARGERS #1

  • derby - 2 years ago

    derby has so much pride, and they deserve this. this is gonna be a really good game! its a home game for derby, and im sure that after this is aired, everyone will see how much spirit and pride there really is in derby. come on boys, show them how to win :) representttt

  • ansonia - 2 years ago

    I think that the ansonia vs. derby game should be shown for the sheer fact that this has always been our greatest rivalry. even though its been 6 yrs. since the last time we played derby for real, the heat has returned to bring on the best game of the yr. friday night. vote ansonia all the way!!! LETS GO BLUE!!!

    Derby deserves this. This is their first game against ansonia this year, and theyre in a new leauge. The derby/ansonia game better win. Derby is a respectful school, with great students and staff. DERBY DESERVES THIS! :)

  • RR1 - 2 years ago

    You can't really use the argument that the NH/Cheshire rivalry has been in history for tens of years because the Derby/Ansonia rivalry dates back to 1902. The energy at that game is also very high because in the valley its not just about football, it's about respect. You can lose the game but you can play like champions and that's what it's all about. Derby as everyone knows has not been blessed with talent the passed few years but that doesn't mean it won't be an emotional, hard fought game. You can't say Ansonia is just going to roll over Derby because of Ansonia's success in the recent past. Derby has experience in a powerhouse of a conference (SCC) and will put it on the line against an NVL team that might be overhyped because they are in the, at times weaker, NVL. It will be an interesting game since the rivalry is being renewed along with both teams having good seasons thus far. All these games will be good but I am probably going to have to place my vote with the Red N' Blue Bash.

  • tim - 2 years ago

    I also agree with bobby seeing as the north haven chesite rivalry has been in the history of both tens for years even though the teams do not play on thanksgiving it always seems like the energy and the thanksgiving day crowd and feeling is at the game whenever and where ever these teams meet

  • Bobby - 2 years ago

    honestly, not just because im from north haven, but because i know north haven and cheshire is going to be the best game, channel 3 should air this game and show much of it big time. cheshire and north haven is a huge rivalry, and this game dependss on the playoffs for both. Derby is going to get beat terribly, while the other 2 games just wont be as good because the best teams exist within the SCC

  • wh - 2 years ago

    Some schools are at a disadvantage when it comes to size. However, that has little impact on the strength or ability of a good team. Schools with 2,000 - 5,000 students can have a weak to fair team, whereas a team from a small school of less than 1,000 can be at the top. Look at Northwest Catholic in West Hartford - 800 students and one of the best teams in the area.

  • ET 6 - 2 years ago

    I agree that some schools are at a disadvantage. Some schools have more than 2000 students, some much much less. So when they vote it's an easy win. Allot of schools cheat on the voting. They say one vote, not true, we caught a student who had voted 50 time on the same computer. We are in favor of a turn based system.

  • Anonymous - 2 years ago

    Don't you think the poll is a little invalid seeing how the Derby/Ansonia game consists of two of the smallest teams/cities/schools in the entire state but was and still is one of the greatest rivalries in CT?
