I think most are realizing that. I think you are the one with the problem of envy... Richlands is not a good team this year compared to teams past but they still beat the best team Tazewell had in several years...

Combination of both 

By "The Price is Right" rules you're the clear winner

As a Richlands fan I feel a little bit more at ease about the game against va high at the end of the season, now absolutely terrified of what may transpire next week though..

Looking forward to seeing them and Richlands play. GMen definitely dominating tonight. If Tazewell can hold Richlands to 7 until 4th quarter and if we maintain what we've been doing, I don't see Richlands winning even though it will be at Ernie Hicks. 

I've been telling everyone graham is the real deal guys. Best football team I've seen this year.

My 42-7 prediction isn’t looking so bad after all....

Pick 6. Gmen score  

What a run!

A lot of people doubted the dogs, thought Richlands would win by 40 etc. Tazewell played tough against a much larger team that had a 40 more kids than their 21. I think Richlands is better than what you think... and many people thought Tazewell would go 0-10 this year. I see the dogs winning 3, maybe even 4 games. Best of luck to both teams moving forward. 

I was very impressed with the way the Bulldogs played tonight and the fans that backed them the whole game. With just twenty some players on the sidelines...it was impressive. The Blues are solid if not very good on the defensive side of the ball but just don't have the playmakers on offense. They play hard but with no speed to speak of, it's going to be a grind the rest of the way.
Just wanted to eat some humble pie and give credit where it is due. Good luck to the Bulldogs the rest of the way.

Belong? Belong where? In the VHSL? if so, then you are correct. 

Speed hurts Richlands....if the coach at tazewell plays it right, sweep left and sweep right then bomb to Mullins. Richlands has no identity this year, still searching for who they are. I think Richlands still wins but not like the past.

Me and Ryan were just talking about him the other day funny enough.  I am going to Charlotte tomorrow and had thought about going to an Intimidators game since I'll be down that way and was wondering if he still played there and Ryan informed me that he didn't.
Wish him well in what he decides to do in the future.

I have no idea what is bothering you, or why you are beating yourself up. You certainly seem to have always had your act together, and gave wise advice to others. I am probably twice your age and more. There is very little that I have not seen or witnessed over the years. God has been good to me, and I will always be thankful to him for all the blessings he has bestowed upon me. Have I ever been down on myself? Sure. That's when I need my spiritual guidance to help me.
There are times in life that we go through that seem helpless and unforgiving. We do not know what tomorrow has in store for us, we can only hope that what ever comes our way, we will be able to deal with it. Life gets tough at times. Don't sweat the small stuff. Sometimes all I need is a talk with our Holy Father. Poor it out, My Friend. He is listening when no one else is.
As I look at the world today and see all the problems of terrible hurricanes, homeless people, wars and rumors of wars, well my problems are small in comparison to what many folks are facing everyday.  Would they trade places with me or you? You bet your boots they would. It is good that we take the time to evaluate ourselves at times, and see if we are headed in the right direction. Sometimes the olé ship may need to change directions, or rethink just what we want out of life...... What is really important in this short life on this place called Earth.
Relax, My Friend and have a serious talk with God. He will give you all the answers. May God Bless You!

If I did that every time I said something "out of character", I'd be a hermit.
Can't live life in the dark behind a closed door...
Sometimes the words that come out are truer than most people want to hear or believe...if you said something that people got pissed about, it is more than likely their problem, not yours...

Cooper looks pretty good throwing downfield.  Mookie dropped one that hit his hands would have been a TD and the other one that went to Mookie he caught in the third quarter for a 51 yard TD.  Both throws were very good and right where they needed to be.

True, offense doesn't really have a running or passing game. They lost some talented players last year. 

I would agree with this more if it were at Richlands.  Since it is at Mitchell, I stand by the 2 scores.

The RB tandem I saw is the best I have seen in a long time.  Mookie is very shifty and able to make cuts and weave in and out through traffic.  The other, let's just say there is a reason he is called Truck.  More like a Mack truck running through and over players.  I know we didn't have size against them but still impressive.  Hard to get a deep ball on them but crossing and simple out routes seem to be there all night.  They don't hold the line as well as others I have seen.  I just don't see Richlands with their lack of offense being able to keep up in this one.  Look for turnovers to be the key in this one.  Bluefield by 14

I’m gonna take a few steps back for the next little while. I said some things that were highly out of character for myself tonight, and lost my cool in a way I’m 100% not happy with. It’s not who I am or who I want to be. 
I’ll still keep the pickem up to date. I’ll decide on the Podcast after the weekend is over, but I feel I need to put myself in the penalty box. 
Good luck to all the teams the next several weeks. 

Beavers still flying high...

And contrary to the bizarre ramblings of this board, Bluefield can hit as hard as anyone and has respectable size to boot.

Dang...gonna be some disappointed people later tonight...
Speed kills...

Also, for future reference, we are doing a Top 10, not 5
I included the ballots with only 5 teams for this week, though that may have caused the data to be slightly skewed
 
Thanks to everyone for participating and I look forward to charting our progression as the season goes on
