Bring back Vaught?  Are you sure?
 
 
 

I was stationed at Langley for 6 years and our kids went to Poquoson school system when they were young before we moved back home and out of the Air Force. We lived on base and the demand for their school system was so high that Langley had 2 busses that took kids to and from the base. We had to pay a fee for it, but it was available. About half of Poqouson students are from there and half are military or fed government/NASA kids that are transit. Thst school is loaded with athletes and they are good in nearly every sport

No offense, but I think you are underestimating Poquoson. I know there's the thought about Poquoson as a bunch of slow white dudes that can't run, or that's the perception. At Poquoson, they are big into Olympic type sports. Kids down there are just all around athletes. Watch them on defense against Lafayette or King William and how fast they close. Poquoson has not just average, but very good overall team speed. They have lots of track guys on their team. My wife is from Poqouson and lived some in Nottoway, so I keep up with those 2. 
Perception of Poquoson is good football players and not very athletic. It's almost the exact opposite. They have far more athletes than truly good football players. Lots of their kids come from Langley Air Force Base and NASA kids whose parents have traveled. Langley and NASA border Poquoson. They've been exposed to Olympic type sports, training, distance running with their military parents etc.

Be sure to tell Adrian to tell Rocky to tell Princeton that they might win this weekend with a few breaks, but the show is over after that. Princeton isn't within 3 tds of the top 3 in the state

Leave my wife out of this! 

Mountain Lake takes dinner reservations as long as you don’t put Baby in a corner. 

Yep, that owner, Maggie O'Quinn runs a damn good restaurant 

Even with 1 good hand, I can still take you cuz.

This is what happens when you hire someone with Parkinsons (like me) to do a job requiring a steady hand and good balance. Maybe next year, Tazewell will hire a blind man to paint the endzones.

Ok buddy whatever you say. Now go away.

There's the more advanced faulty logic condition that goes far beyond fallacy. It's the condition that is diagnosed after one displays the inability to understand his fallacy after it has been clearly shown to him. The condition is known as dumbassedness.

This fallacy is one I studied at Tech. We had a great ethics class my freshmen year. We learned all the fallacies of which we all use. The fallacy you have used is known as "Strawman." Strawman is a distortion of the opponent or other persons position. You personally KNOW the posters aren't personally knocking the kids. They are knocking the admins/AD/Coach, yet you distort that.
Second fallacy type that this kind of fits into is called "Playing to the audience." You know kids are a protected population and our values agree to that. You use Strawman in conjunction with Playing to the Audience.  
Stop using fallacy dude. Some are intentional and the ones you are using are on purpose. If you are going to do fallacy (like we all do), use them accidentally, without intent.
 

You said the words "kids from Blacksburg." I could be wrong, but I have read a grand total of zero times, any poster on this board putting down the KIDS of Blacksburg. There's a gigantic difference in the Kids at Blacksburg and the administrators/AD at Blacksburg. I've been critical of the AD/Coach/Administration of Blacksburg like a few others on here, but ain't the same as the kids/players. 

I played for Grundy against Shane Compton and Tony Palmer at Graham. Compton was the best pure shooting HS basketball player I've seen. He could shoot the eyes out of it.

Speaking of cancels.....John Marshall, yes, that John Marshall, just canceled on Riverheads for game 10 due to lack of players. Evidently, they only had 3 point guards, 2 shooting guards, 3 power forwards, and 2 centers available to suit up.

Giles is getting out coached tonight! Anybody watching the game can clearly see we are a lot faster, a lot bigger, and we should be ahead! Just far greater talent for Giles.
 

We can.

And one more thing, I don't know if it's West VA rules or Tazewell County rules at Mitchell Stadium, but God forbid somebody farts the wrong way or has their cellphone ring during the game. "Off with his head!"

Hey guys, are there still any thoughts on how this WW 2 thing is gonna shake out? 

Well, his first name is Robert, but he goes by Bobby.  He likes to hitchhike with Janis Joplin in the Southern Louisiana area. 

This is my takeaway from Bluefield as well. Hairston is so good at receiver and has mismatches against almost anyone against him but has no one getting him the ball. Lack of depth showed against Woodrow down the stretch. Everyone was tired. They really can't afford anyone getting injured. 

I think Bluefield has 2 issues. No traditional QB and lack of depth. I have watched all their games on the internet and they pretty much play the same guys on both sides of the ball. You never really see anyone coming in to give someone a break. Maybe one or two guys at best. No solid rotation to keep players fresh.

You can predict all you want it’s your opinion no problem with that all we’re saying is there’s not much chatter around here about a state title.  We’ve been here before and have 0 championships in the trophy case so let’s not celebrate yet
