  4. They've got to do something about these playoff seedings. If (and it's a huge if) we beat Lee, we can make the playoffs (with a tad of help), with a 3-7 record. Teams that finish 3-7 don't need to be making the playoffs. It's great for the kids to get another game and experience, but from a quality of football standpoint, they need to make sure the teams that make it deserve it.
  5. We certainly have talent on the squad, but like Bearcat Bob said, I just don't know if I can put a finger on it, but the entire team just seemed off this year. The effort just wasn't there, that is for sure and obvious to anyone that saw games last year and this year, but this is just a pathetic record for a team that has good talent, but obviously doesn't have the star power we had last year, when we had Brown, Kiser, and Miles. Still, with a loss this coming week to a very good Lee team, 2-8 is hard to swallow. There's always next year though. :) Gotta keep the spirits up.
  6. It's possible, I won't deny that, but while I knew the schedule was a bit tougher, 2-8 was not a record I foresaw.
  7. We were good just last year Bob, but this season, wow, I mean, talk about a let down. It's almost like from the V-T game forward, the defense just gave up and there was just something missing. I don't know if it was a locker room thing, a coaching thing, maybe they thought they were going to be a better team than they were and sort of quit a bit, but talent wise, this team should have been much better than 2-8.
  8. I have a hard time putting it on the staff, especially after the tremendous job they did last season, but sure, there is enough blame to go around, so I think everyone could have been better. Perhaps they could have been motivated better, but it's hard seeing us have over 70 kids at the beginning of the year, buy into all the optimism, and see them just fall flat on their faces, game in and game out.
  9. No, we have no chance. We suck.....no other way to describe it, we're terrible. The effort just hasn't been there this year, I don't know what it is, but we just haven't been ready to play and the kids haven't seemed nearly as motivated as they were last year. I don't think there are any real leaders on the team and as bad as we are, we don't deserve to even say the word playoffs, let alone qualify for them.
  10. Nice of the referee's to have mercy on us. Hopefully next year we can actually try to provide you guys with a challenge. Congrats to GC and their fans.
  11. Goodness, we truly suck on every level. Started the season with over 70 players, a gigantic level of optimism, and we're just totally and completely, awful.
  12. Thanks. Not sure what the BHC was smoking, but it's obvious they neither know how bad Central is or how talented Tazewell is. I underestimated Tazewell also when they played my Bearcats, but they are a quality squad.
  13. Sullivan Central isn't very good....let me rephrase that, Sullivan Central is actually pretty bad. For some ludicrous reason, the BHC only picked Tazewell to win by 7 points, but I don't think it's close at all. Tazewell wins 46-12.
  14. It's gonna be a challenge, no question about it. This might be one of those games where you just hope to come out healthy, keep it as close as possible, and call it a moral victory. THS is just too talented and we'll be hard pressed to stay within three or four TD's.

    Well I will say this, Steve Wright is a class act and a great man. Odds are we beat them handily tonight, but given a bit more time, Steve will have this team playing better. I'm sympathetic to the kids, they don't deserve this, and I hope the situation improves for them as the season goes along.
