He’s right! In all honesty, I hope I can achieve his skill level one day. Most people think we just drop out of the sky on Fridays and will never understand the work, level of understanding and people skills involved in our roles as officials. 

I hear good things about Ridgeview. 
A few fans will even walk you to the parking lot after the game.

Ended up working and got in late. Yeah I got lazy because I'd then have to explain what PK stands for.  I will fix it for ya in our week 9 run.

You're correct. I didn't mean to put them in there as Grundy's competition, but as River View's lone win. Then I lost train of thought because of ADD. haha

This poll cracks me up....it obviously doesn't take into consideration class, right? So, how does a 2-3 record team rank higher than a 6-0 team?  This basically boils down to "what school has the most people posting on this forum" poll. 

I’m very well aware of that fact. I’m only referring to the programs as they refer to themselves, Central Warriors and Clintwood Wolfpack. My insinuation was not to reflect on Coach Owens or Mullins, but to the little league organizations themselves. Some that are not as in the loop as we are will gloss over and paint all football represented under one banner though and there is no changing those folks minds. That is why I said there needs to be serious examination of all that represent their community on any level of football or any sport for that matter. 

Piggy backing off of the fantasy team convo from weeks past, if you were building a coaching staff made up of current coverage area coaches, who do you pick? You have to choose a head coach, OC, DC and Special Teams coach.

The game was well in hand for Wise, and one coach standing on the field was jawing with the Clintwood staff essentially the entire fourth quarter. The game was stopped once to tell them to cool it, but the jawing and trash talk from BOTH sides was prominent. Cooler heads did not prevail and adults from both sides decided their own personal pride was more important than the youth they a supposedly serving, and providing leadership for a few days a week. 
As someone stated above, this is the second MAJOR issue in two years with RV, and I’ve seen it escalate a few times other than those incidents as well. Their bad apples right now are really making it tough for the good ones (and there are wayyyy more great folks over there than not so great), to shine. The culture definitely needs to focus on who they allow to represent them in a public setting. Sure you’re going to have loud mouths everywhere, but a serious adjustment needs to be made, especially with a great program on the rise.

Not the image we want to project at Ridgeview... that's for sure.  In the past two seasons, we've been involved in two ugly incidents (incident with the ref at the end of the Grayson County game last season) and it's just a sad, sad situation.

I heard you can only "transfer" funds to Richlands. Apparently if they go anywhere else, it's chalked up as a loss.

Show me on this doll where the poll hurt you.

No, but they also did not return 20 starters from a state championship runner up.

3 easy payments of 19.92 and you get them all.  The mini helmet, the cleats, D.V. bobble head, and order before the playoffs and you'll get a laminated copy of the letter from the VHSl.
While supplies last.

I think they should start a go fund me page to get an asterisk to put behind the 92 on the press box at Bernie Hicks. 😄

For 92 you should have done mini cleats not helmets 

For those that had week 5 on the under for GC drama to fire up, congratulations and you can collect your winnings at the Hob-Nob during regular business hours. For the rest of us, I'm going to the concession stand, how's everyone like their hot dogs, and let me know if I you want regular or diet pop.

I don’t think anyone should panic yet with it just being at the halfway mark. As far as 2A West goes, IMO Glenvar is at the top. Followed by Appo and Ridgeview. Union, Va High, and Graham take 3-5.
In all of 2A, I think Region D is behind everyone but I also think that Ridgeview and Union can play with the top dogs of A, B, and C right now. I’m not completely sold on RV yet but last season I also wasn’t sold on Union until late in the season.
