I'm sure he'll like Coach Carroll.

I'm unaffiliated with Mr. Cook, however, I did take some summer courses in Ewingese at VHCC.

I know it's kind of a distant memory, but it's a memory nonetheless; Marion is a very proud basketball school. They've put players in the pros, have two coaches in the VHSL Hall of Fame, and (albeit a LONG Time ago) have beaten both the red and gold teams of Oak Hill. Most folks remember if you didn't beat the end of day class bell into Hurricane House, you weren't going to get a seat in the home bleachers. Marion has always sat in both the home and away bleachers, but they're traditionally kind enough to stay behind their bench. Just like GC in football, just because the team isn't drawing the crowds it used to, tradition says that fans are not going to stick to the home side, even if there are seats available. That is "old school" for Marion.

How'd'ya'll feel about Miracle Whip?

Any Marion uniform that doesn't feature the arching "CANES" text on the helmet is trying too hard. Red helmet or white helmet, I dont care, they got it right 35 years ago and didn't need to change it. Not the best picture, but it's best I could find: I like the new Marion logo in theory, but I think it was a little poorly executed. The flag coming of the edge is kinda difficult to discern. I'm pretty sure the logo is based on a concept logo for Carolina that made its rounds on the internet a few years ago that was a much better execution of the same thing, in my opinion.

If I may be so bold, I would like to extend a few predictions of my own: 1. Someone not named John Battle will win the M7. 2. The Hogoheegee will change its name to something more sensitive to Native Americans. Chilhowie will change their name to something less sensitive. 3. The fine folks in Wytheville will determine, much to everyone's surprise, that Maroon is just a color. 4. Union will hire the ghost of Harry Ragsdale to lead their football program. The entire state will quake in fear at the thought of the single-winged bears. 5. Many parades will be held in Tazewell. A couple might have something to do with football. 6. Ridgeview and Union will play each other. Someone will win. 7. Watch out for Garden, Rich Valley, Fries, and Shawsville. They're all overdue for a run. 8. Chris Akers gets a Regional Championship Trophy, but someone accidently mails it to Gate City.

There's a team down here in Smyth County that might take offense to that.

Playing at Brushfork Armory on Monday, at Hurricane House on February 4th.

I don't want to be cryptic or "that guy," but if MSHS/SCSB decides to hire a particular applicant that I know has expressed interest, you might want to get a bottle of A1 to go with your shoe leather.

If we could stop having the Back of the Dragon Trophy, and by that I mean keep the game and ditch the incense burner, that would be great.

That is correct for most school districts. Vaccinated + no symptoms = no quarantine. If you are not vaccinated and exposed, it's 8-11 days quarantined (depending on school district), but either way, if an unvaccinated player is exposed this week, they would miss state.

If he's getting from BSG to Rose Ridge in half an hour, he deserves the job 🤣

Should Patrick Henry win, Holston fans will not be clamoring for Akers to be fired... Gate City and Fort Chiswell fans will do it for them.

How could you @02GW12?

Battle is the worst team in 2D by at least two scores; let's not get silly here.

Chilhowie throws interception deep in PH territory with 1:22 remaining in the game. Patrick Henry 14, Chilhowie 10 - likely to be the final

Patrick Henry 14, Chilhowie 10 4:43 left in 4th

Nobody said anything, but one guy in the back thought about him really loud 🤣

Chilhowie 10, Patrick Henry 7 7:30 left in the 4th

Chilhowie and PH still tied 7-7 in the 4th

Scorestream says NW up 3-0 in the 1st, but take that with the grain of salt

Chilhowie 7, Patrick Henry 7 Halftime
