LOL. I "put the L" on them before they played Union, Blacksburg, & William Byrd because I knew, as well as many rational Richlands fans knew, that those teams were MORE talented. 
You said that you're not from Richlands.. can I guess where you're from? Bradshaw? Berwind? 

Yea they got flat out whipped!! I also didn't come on here claiming they were going to shut down Grundy either. I was just trying to help you take off your blue sunglasses.

And that's the damn problem with this world, trying to please everybody.  You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time...put that in your lesson plan and teach it...

Check out this nice lid in SWVA 

Random thoughts:
* I was a little bummed that this didn't come down to the final play, but I guess that had to end sometime. Still a good game though.
* Good crowd, but not as big as I thought it would be. Uncertain weather may have had something to do with that.
*Thankful that the weather held out for the most part. On the way over from Kingsport it rained pretty hard a couple of times.
*Thought at the half that Union was going to win unless they imploded with turnovers. They really just dominated both sides of the LOS, and probably should have been up 2-3 TD at the half.
*Really surprised Richlands had so much difficulty moving the football, especially on the ground. 
*Also surprised that Richlands punted to Mitchell after angling their first punt out of bounds. I have no idea why any opponent would ever willingly put the football in his hands. 
*Didn't understand why Mance didn't go for 2 after the TD. The way Union was grinding the football, possessions were going to be limited. 

Would be an earth-obliterating surprise if both teams aren't 1-0 entering Week 2...

It's getting harder and harder!!

Gonna have to start making it a requirement for all new players to bring their pads with them 

Brandon Looney, a rising senior at Honaker High School, died following a work related accident Wednesday, July 19th in Lebanon.  The 18-year old Looney was a honored member of Honaker High School's Varsity Baseball team, having received 1st team All-Conference 3rd Baseman, 1st Team All-Region 3rd Baseman and was a Group 1A 1st team All-State selection on the diamond.  He was a 2nd Team member of the All-Four Seasons Country team released on Sunday.  Looney had already graduated from Russell County Career and Technology Center with a certificate in Auto Mechanics according to his obituary.  It stated that baseball was his "passion", but his "lifelong dream was to become an auto mechanic and own his own shop."
Prayers for Brandon's family, teammates and community.  A life well lived but short.  Funeral services are scheduled for tomorrow July 23rd.
"Go rest high on that mountain Brandon"
 
 

And like I said in my original post, pure hatred. I always hated Powell Valley and I'll always hate Union. Rivals hate each other, I'll continue to do so. 

It was in ot! Didn't have a dog in the fight but this was my senior year and having played against both teams I went and it was a great game!!

Yeah but for every Dillon High School there's an East Dillon High School.. right? 

Richlands vs Union!!!

Hands down Bluefield!

Without knowing anything about the situation I would guess their last names are either Lester, Tester, or Justice. Pretty good odds of that, right?

Proud of the boys! That's a great early season win over a great GW team that no one was giving them a chance to win! Great job!

Im a Richlands supporter and I don't care what anyone says. That team went straight down hill when Jody Fuller was fired. Karma is a b!%$&.
