  1. As a Richlands fan, I wasn't upset with the caliber of play by the Blue Tornado. They stuffed the Gate City running game, and both major drives by Gate City were sustained by long passes on 3rd and forever ... passes on which the defensive backs either had position to make a play or the ball just happened to be placed in the perfect spot. Credit should go to the Gate City receivers for making better plays on the ball than the defensive backs. Regarding the offense, they were able to run the ball well and they hit on big passes when they did go over the top. The dedication to run by both teams shortened the clock.
  2. They just need to learn to play the ball. Coverage wasn't really the issue.
  3. I won't be surprised if this is a close game. Season openers are unpredictable.
  4. Strangely enough, most of the points I've seen have come from explosive passing plays. I'm not saying this team is anywhere near as explosive as last year's team, but I have been happy with the big play potential as shown in the scrimmages.
  5. Out for the year. On the bright side, Richlands has what I believe to be their greatest kicker ever. Thursday night he was constantly kicking the ball into the endzone on kickoffs, and he also made a 47 or 48 yard field goal with distance to spare.
  6. Preach on ... DV cheated everyone associated with the event. I believe Richlands would probably have won without them, but any improved footing on a field in that shape would make some difference.
  7. Any other observations on Richlands?
  8. Cause it's harder to commit to Tazewell football??????? ðŸ¼
  9. I will not accept the position ... unless it's offered to me.
  10. Colobro at Tazewell ...Mance stepping down ... tonight's nightmare will no doubt feature Bulldogs52 and me switching roles on this forum.
  11. Well I heard you were looking for a place to fit in Full of adherent people with the same objective A family to cling to and call brethren Come and join us All we want to do is change your mind All you need to do is close your eyes So come and join us Come and join us Come and join us Don't you see the trouble that most people are in And that they just want you for their own advantage But I swear to you we're different from all of them Come and join us I can tell you are lookin' for a way to live Where truth is determined by consensus Full of codified arbitrary directives Come and join us All we want to have is your small mind Turn it into one of our own kind You can go through life adrift and alone Desperate, desolate, on your own But we're lookin' for a few more stalwart clones So come and join us Come and join us Come and join us We've got spite and dedication as a vehement brew The world hates us, well we hate them too But you're exempted of course if you Come and join us Independent, self-contented, revolutionary Intellectual, brave, strong and scholarly If you're not one of them, you're us already so Come and join us
  12. They should be really good at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.
  13. Guess you had better build a wall.
  14. I've been sworn to secrecy.
  15. just throwing out the old and tired ... figured I would beat someone to the punch.
  16. Probably because most of the players and their parents don't live in Richlands.
  17. Not quiet the first one
  18. One of my favorite players from the 70's https://youtu.be/uMDmphR3iqU
