“Yeah, I don’t know about that.”
“Why ‘-county?’”
“… You? Really?”
It took me hearing a few of those in November 2005 to create what we now know as mocofootball.com.
In case you weren’t keeping count, this is our 15th Maryland playoff chatter as proud, “MoCo” football fans. A decade and a half of our existence (or survival?) is a credit to you and the 8.5 million unique visitors you took with you to check out our unique, online community. Huge for us is the trust of coaches, alumni, and diehard fans. I am grateful.
Our MoCo pride is unique, and I am glad it exists. I’ve shaken the hands, hugged countless men and women, former players, coaches, and parents. I’ve heard their encouraging words, heard stories of their fathers and their sons, saw their beautiful smiles that made emotionally draining 3 A.M.’s, fact-checking, creative brainstorming, and time away from family.. worth it.
I don’t know where else outside of the big, “football states” is this being done in the high school level. I hope this community has served you well, made you proud. Can you help us keep at it?
Friends, if it’s not much of a burden, we’d like to extend our meek hands in asking for donations in this time of giving. We totally understand if you cannot. We’ll take what you can give. And what you give can help us stay online, get better.

Thank you for your time.
