Lol. I’ve got my handle wrapped with a baseball bat grip. So I’m thinking batters gloves haha. Swapping hands didn’t help. I had these two by the first qtr and they were busted. Devotion haha. Plus the bell is about six pounds. It’s not Thor’s hammer. Maybe it’s little cousin.

Just gonna throw out my thoughts on this game. With the rushing yards appo has given up in the past two games I don’t believe they can’t stop the U. But I also believe it will be difficult for union to stop all of appos weapons they present and the triple option plays they run are difficult for any defense to stop. But at this point in the season unions defense is lights out and I believe they will cause the only turnover of the game giving them the win 27-21 bear roll

I think in the long run, we could all agree that Mitchell makes Owens better and vice versa. Same with James and Qualls. What has made this years Union team so deadly is they are not a group of good athletes. They are a sum of all parts. A unit, a team. Battling of each other and having the next man up attitude. Each of the formentioned players could easily be the stud for several teams in the Region D. But their team oriented and understand that the "we" is bigger than the "me".

Are you guys coming early enough to enjoy the fire pit and corn hole.

Also worth noting Thor's hammer has received some upgrades.

Just talked to Unions AD Mr. Goforth and asked him about the Giles train horn he said if they want to bring it. Tell then to come on with it. Just had to be on Unions side he will be getting Lee Highs train horn as well all we need now is the 1 from Gate City.

Seems odd that the VHSL would have made this change.

I tell ya what I would like to see for 2A. Each region has a nice field that can be played on so why don't we rotate every 4 years? Region D could use UVA Wise, C could keep Salem if they so choose to, Im sure one of the colleges in A and B would rent out there fields for VHSL playoffs. Either that or go back to power points host all the way through.

I just found out that if Union wins they will play at Salem. If Appomattox wins, they will play at William and Mary to help with travel cost. If Staunton River beats Heritage, they will play at Salem on Friday night. I find this kind of strange.

Taymon looked pretty fast when he had to run down 17 on that real long run ?

Lighten up. I'm sorry to hear about the kid that got injured, and hope him the best, but on this board we all joke and jab at each other, and as a Richlands fan I have heard about anything you can hear about recruiting, but when our team is out, we pull for the team from our area that is still playing, even if it is the team that just beat ours, whose fans may have posted about recruiting. IMO if you are coming to this board, bring a tough skin, take everything lightly, be a good sport, and know that if Appo wins over Union, we will be pulling for them in the State final. That's just the way it works, no need to get all huffy and out of shape about it, just learn to enjoy the atmosphere. A Richlands Fan that says GO BEARS!!!!!

Coach Smith is a class act no doubt. I have nothing but respect for him and the Appo community for how they handled the tragedies.

BearDawg reacted to EH31 in The rematch: Appomattox @ Union
You gotta learn to take a joke lil buddy. I don't honestly believe you recruited a kicker out of a private school but you yourself have accused Richlands of recruiting so I had to get a jab in.
Also.. why would anyone get a memo about your kicker?

BearDawg got a reaction from AdvocateOfMany434 in The rematch: Appomattox @ Union
Same answer. If our D stays strong, he should only get a couple few kicks anyway.
Hope he does well in college.

APPOMATTOX has seen more than it fair share of heartbreak in the last few years loosing its young people to accidents and death at every turn, last year in the early morning hours on game day they lost a beloved teammate on the baseball team to a car accident but they still played on and beat UNION .within just a few hours the UNION family lost the mother of one of our cheerleaders JANINIA JEFFERSON (JONES)to a murder by ERIC MONROE JONES(WHO IS STILL ON THE RUN).APPOMATTOX WAS CONTACTED AND ASKED TO PRAY FOR THE FAMILY, THEY DID, AND ALSO LOWERED THE FLAG TO HALF MASS AT THEIR NEXT HOME GAME.This shows the true heart of the real football families from APPOMATTOX and it speaks of real class of the fine people that the football team represent.They also carry the PO1 slogan on their backs into every game and have their prayer circle before each home game, so regaurdless of the score they are winners,they have inspired me and even though I am pulling for the BEARS , I already know these young men on both sides will make us proud

He was only giving a solid compliment to the caliber of athletes y’all had. Not a slight to ur coach.

Agreed on the turnover game. Take always for the D is huge and will be in this game. As for our late arrival, I’m sure it’ll be a little different at our home field. Congrats on the back to back titles. That requires respect. Great run. But I’ve got a gut feeling the run stops at the Park.
On a a side note, your coach seems top notch.

Three games out of 13 we were held u see 14 points. And still won. Twice against a stingy Richlands team with no quit in em and once against a 6A Tennessee Morristown West. If three is a majority of 13, then sure. We only allow 10 per game though.
I’m not really sure of the point u were trying to make Sir
Edit: I see where u mentioned u read the wrong line. No worries.

Just a thought Re: concrete bleachers. RIchlands has concrete bleachers and they took out about a 10 foot section of metal railing at the 50 yard line and installed a 4'x15-20' platform on the front of the stands. If the aisle on the front of the bleachers is too narrow for a wheelchair, maybe put a platform at the top of the current ramp leading to home side. Just a thought.
Side Note: Not sure if Bullitts track is used for meets. Richlands is and the platform did eliminate two running lanes (I think)
