Didn't think it would. But just trying to eliminate all the options for reasons of complaining. ;-)

Some of you aren't, but some of you are (jarhead, BigWinners). And I heard a lot of crying and whining at Bullitt Park last year after the Glenvar game in person from A LOT of Union fans about the possibility (Richlands/Appomattox hadn't gone final yet) of having to go to Clarke County. Granted, even in jarhead's case, he mentioned he still makes the trip, but he certainly whines about it. This seems to be a Wise County thing. I will give you all some credit, at least you're willing to at least go to Richlands or Graham for a game without whining. If it was J. I. Burton, they whine about just having to leave Wise County. In closing, I'm not flaming or bashing or trolling. Just making a poignant, astute observation. If you're forced to make the trip, embrace it, enjoy it, treat it like an unplanned vacation. Google stuff to do in the area. Appomattox is a very historical area. Plenty of stuff to see and do. Being a Ridgeview fan, I would love just the opportunity. But that isn't going to happen ANYTIME soon, except for maybe girls basketball. I pull for every team in the Mountain, except Central, so come playoff time, I'll be a Bears and Blue Devils fan and possibly a Trojans and Generals fan too if they make it as well.

Yeah, I was wondering to myself this morning if those 2 extra bonus points from Grundy over the River View game would make a difference for Hurley...

Someone posted it on this board several weeks ago. It's too complicated to even go into really.

Were you at Marion Friday night? If not, you missed a lot of angry fans.

I believe they already have based on my count and others on this site who do it as well. Hurley fans will not take too kindly to this I believe. Lol.

What is it with Union fans and whining about travelling? Get over it. At least you'll have a playoff game to travel to. Better yet, just throw the game to Gate City in the first round. I'm sure they would love to travel to Danville, and then you won't have to worry anymore about it.

Hurley message board fan rage activated in 3.... 2.... 1....

Yep. We're in a free falling state of chaos right now. Kind of finding it rather humorous at this point to be honest.

Yep. Arcadia is about 15-20 miles even more north of Nandua. Lol.

Trust me jarhead, if there EVER comes a day when Union EVER has to make a trip to Nandua or Arcadia... you will be begging that it was Clarke County instead. Google Maps lists it at roughly 5.5 hours from Union to Clarke County. Google Maps lists it at 8.25 hours to Nandua and 8.5 to Arcadia.

Yep. Whining.

You'll have to forgive jarhead's plethora of emotions Observer, between all this yelling about flags and whining of possibly having to travel far for a Union game again this year, I think he's just in dysfunctional disarray at the moment.

Is there ANY chance at all this game gets postponed to Saturday with the rain coming in tomorrow? I've noticed these Hogoheegee teams don't hesitate whatsoever to postpone games so they don't have to play on a muddy field. If it gets moved to Saturday afternoon, I most likely won't make it. Saturday night, I could make it. But hoping it doesn't get postponed at all.

Are you talking about when John Battle played Essex? If so, Essex fans are far from intimidating. Those people were some of the nicest fans I've ever met when Haysi played them a couple of years ago.

No wonder J. I. Burton beat them so bad. The entire school plays on the team...

Ridge View? Two words?

I'll be there... but this is more of a home game for me than an actual Ridgeview home game as I live in Bristol now. Lol. Last week, they actually threw the ball a LOT more than run. They threw for over 300 yards last week. Normally we're a running team though. I would like to see more of what I saw last week.

This is the stuff that gets to me each year... people whining about having to travel. Get over it. Make the trip, wherever it may be or stay home and listen to it on the radio. It could be worse... one of these days, maybe you'll wind up going to Nandua or Arcadia over on Chincoteague island.

I imagine that IF Hurley makes it to the final four then Richlands would be the closest suitable stadium or Graham. Although, I don't know if Bluefield is closer than Richlands or not from Hurley cutting through West Virginia roads.

Yeah... but what I was getting at was it seems as if everyone is assuming Hurley would meet GW/Galax earlier in the playoffs. I don't think that's very likely at this point. Fort Chiswell seems to be the sleeper team. Possibly Parry McCluer as well. Regardless, I think anyone from the West will have their hands full with Riverheads once the inevitable occurs.

To be fair... isn't it likely that Hurley could potentially avoid GW/Galax until the title game in Salem? I'm thinking the scenario if Hurley finishes 1 and GW/Galax are 2 & 3. Who is likely to get 4th? PH, Chilhowie, Fort Chiswell?

There's just something about this bozo that really annoys me.... ^^^^

65% chance of rain last check for Friday night... I was getting ready to say, come on now, just wuss out like these Hogoheegee teams and postpone it till Saturday and then I remembered that Marion is a Hogoheegee team as well. Lol.
