I think as long as it not a deluge and very light , shouldn’t be much of an issue except for us old people (speaking for myself only) who hate sitting in cold & wet rain to watch high school football. Rain can make things interesting, that football gets slippery to hold on to...Marion was horrible last year but on turf not as bad as pastureland. 

Stuart's Draft is equally as tough in Region B as the two teams you mentioned in Region A. 

Best chili around 

So I can come to Union and shine a flashlight in your player's eyes while they try to shoot free throws?

Some people take things way too seriously...

Because you post stuff that's false trying to stir the pot.
I'm the only one allowed to stir the pot.
Don't like it?  I can take care of it...

We have a better chance of beating VT than Wise does of pulling this off...

Looks like the biggest upset of the year might have been Union over Graham.

Update. Stay tuned. Evidently this one fan wasn't the only one upset at the horn during the cadence. Monday, Graham will file an official complaint with the VHSL not on the horn, but on the horns use during the cadence and snap.
Stay tuned.....we can revisit this thread Monday afternoon after the official complaint is sent, then we can talk about "who cares" about the use of the horn. Blow the horn and have fun. Blow it repeatedly during the cadence, and you will get dealt with. Union crossed the line. They also got shi* kicked 48-7

You know, this morning after talking to some parents of the Graham players, they were happy as heck with the win, but very upset with the train horn with Graham standing at the line of scrimmage and well past being out of the huddle. That's about as low class as you can get.
Whoever the two or three FOOLS running the train horn were, I hope the decent people in Big Stone and Appy discipline or fire that guy. I have no problem with train horns. They are awesome. But sounding them when the opponent is at the line of scrimmage in the middle of the cadence? That's pathetic and even though it's the actions of a few, it reflects piss poorly on Union.
Incredible class by Tony who called the Dogs off in the late second after the acts of classlessness against his team and his kids. I would have put up 80. That type of beating would have forced the VHSL to take a look at the train horn DURING the CADENCE due to the amount of attention it would have recieved.
The Union AD and Coach Turner should issue an apology to Graham High School players, coaches, and fans. Will this happen? I doubt it, but it might. If it doesn't, Union will have dropped a notch in my book.
Horns are all good and blowing them tons of times is great. I wish Graham had one. But........blowing them during the cadence is absolutely sad, pathetic, and low class. This is why I titled Tony in the post. This dude is a damn class act! To show that kind of restraint speaks at his character and maturity level.
My COY for 2019. Tony "Bone" Palmer. A true class-act.

If you a have a beef with the AD and you breaking rules, you don't take it out on Graham kids by sounding a train horn during the cadence. You can label me what you like, be it bad, the Devil, Manson, Jesus, or Ronald MacDonald. What Union did was wrong. You show great intensity with me saying Graham should not have put up 80, yet not much with the low class BS Union pulled on the Graham kids last night. I can be as unpopular as you wish. That's fine. What Union did was WRONG and nearly a day later, not ONE, not one has came out and stated, the train horn was uncool at the snap.

Nope, I stand by the post Regardless of how popular it is or isn't. What Union did was WRONG and it shouldn't be allowed in High School Football.  It's laughable that in the year 2019, a team can actually blow a train horn while the opponent is calling the cadence. It's wrong and shouldn't be tolerated or allowed simply because the score was a blowout.

Yes, Ridgeview is really 3 TDs worse than Glenvar. 

I blame the Soviet government which shot her full of steroids when she was younger. They did the very same thing to her husband.

Congrats G-Men you smoked us tonite like I said. Union was way too beat up but healthy i still think it would have been the same. Know 1 thing i will be rooting for you guys next week can't stand the Walmart warriors. Man what game next week we have the Walmart Warriors going to The McDonald's G-Men

Yes it was. Very classy. 

Graham 48  Union 7

Congratulations to Union on another good season. Those kids were just flat out worn out.
As for Graham..........WOW. I can't recall a game with a better defensive stand than that. They came to play. On to Central. I hope they stay focused this week.
@Hokie1Pokie you were right on your defensive post earlier. 👏👏😂

Ouch. Brigitte Nielsen, what happened to her?? I blame Flavor Flav. Lol

Tony understands the following concept well, and how to make it happen.   Get your athletes out in space and in one on one situations.  Graham does exactly that.  Credit the other Palmer on defense.  Since this man has arrived, it's like Graham's defense literally turned it around from day 1.

You know, they stopped sounding the train horn about midway through the second qtr, LMAO.  Also, the Union stadium announcer is a guy I feel sorry for.  This guy is so depressed that his voice is actually cracking as he's calling the game.  I think the guy literally might have been crying a bit in the late 1st qtr.  Also, Union played the train horn up until the snap of the football all through the first qtr.  That's a bad look, period.  I'm a horn man.  I love horns and whistles and stuff, but playing them literally during the cadence is not cool.  Either way, the train horn has ran out of gas.
