[ QUOTE ] Michigan style, white face mask, white wings. Same "M" as Michigan helmet (White) [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, they looked pretty cool at the benefit game to night.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Abingdon won the tournament at Draper Valley the other day with 305...as I said, they will easily win the SWD. [/ QUOTE ] I disagree, they may win the district but not easily. [/ QUOTE ] I play golf for Grundy and have played in most of the matches, Abingdon will win the swd hands down. [/ QUOTE ] I guess we will just have to wait and see.

This morning`s Bristol Herald Courier has the SWD preview. 1.Richlands 2.Graham 3.Tazewell 4.Carroll County 5.Abingdon 6.Marion 7.Grundy I figured Marion would be a little higher than sixth. Of course, that is the Bristol paper for ya.

[ QUOTE ] i went haha [/ QUOTE ] Did Carroll look pretty solid? I was just wondering because I know Rural Retreat usually has a decent team. Marion plays Rural Retreat in a benefit game Friday so I was just wondering.

They finished with a score of 317, pretty impressive to say the least.

[ QUOTE ] A boy named Phillip Sheffey committed suicide the other night in Rural Retreat less than a mile from my house. He was a graduate of Rural Retreat High School and a close friend of mine. He was 18 years old. A very sad story..he had people that loved him and he just didn't realize it. Please keep him in your prayers. [/ QUOTE ] I hadn`t heard anything about this but I will keep his family and you in my prayers.

[ QUOTE ] I've heard that the girl's coach at MHS resigned his position for personal reasons recently. Is he still coaching or is he resigning that too? [/ QUOTE ] Which school are you referring to?

[ QUOTE ] Who will be starting qb? Alex Nelson threw the td pass? Is he the backup? I think they will throw the ball around a little more this year...at least I think that's what everybody is hoping. [/ QUOTE ] I`ve heard some people say Nelson was the starter and I have heard some say Noe was. Nelson threw both touchdown passes and he was running the ball pretty well. They ran several option plays and Nelson seemed to have the option down pretty good.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Come on...we need details....details...please. [/ QUOTE ] Futbol, did you go to the Marion/Ft.Chiswell scrimmage tonight? Marion didn`t look as good as I thought they would but they did not keep all of their starters on the field together much. Both teams scored two touchdowns a piece. Brock Hanna scored one touchdown and one of the Dodson twins scored the other one. [/ QUOTE ] The Dotsons are playing football? I didn't get to go, but hey it's a scrimmage. I wonder of those two guys will contribute any to the team, they have good size and are pretty good athletes. I'm worried about discipline issues with them, however. [/ QUOTE ] Yes they were playing lat night quite a bit. Joey is #11 and Jason is #9. Joey caught a td pass from Nelson. They are both great athletes, just hope they stay out of trouble.

[ QUOTE ] No, I went to Bluefield to watch GW. I am not from Marion, if you thought I was. [/ QUOTE ] Oh sorry dude. I didn`t even think to notice there were two futbols. I was talking to futbolking, the Canes fan. Anyway how did that scrimmage go?

Sorry about the last post, as you can see my post is in the middle.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I was just wondering why the main page of schedules and stats has not been updated since last season. Does anyone know if it will be updated for the upcoming season? [/ QUOTE ] Thanks, I was just wondering. I`m getting pumped for football. Thanks again for the info, I will be more patient lol. yeah...we are working on a new front end and new software...so..all in good time. Gman usually updates it after the football previews come out in the papers...just before the season starts. [/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ] i was just pointing it out and if you call that game an upset you obviously were not there.. [/ QUOTE ] Actually, I was there like I was at every game the Canes played. Carroll beat Marion 27-14 for their Homecoming. I said it was an upset merely because Marion was picked by 2 touchdowns in the Bristol paper. Carroll outplayed Marion that night. I wasn`t starting an arguement with you but to me when a team is picked by 2 touchdowns and they lose you can consider it an upset. Good luck to Carroll County and to all of the SWD teams on the upcoming season.

[ QUOTE ] well i see something wrong with this carroll beat marion 27-14 last year [/ QUOTE ] Last year is last year, they upset Marion and this is a new year.

[ QUOTE ] I believe you are all wrong, but I don't wanna get involved in this peter fighting contest. [/ QUOTE ] Tell us your picks, I`m interested to see what you think. Everybody has their own.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] NOBAMA '08 Once again the media is making someone into what they are not. What do Brett Favre and Barack Obama have in common? [/ QUOTE ] I hear Auburn fans everywhere are getting tons of these stickers. [/ QUOTE ] And Tennessee fans as well lol.

This is what I think: 1. Richlands 2. Graham 3. Marion 4. Carroll County 5. Tazewell 6. Abingdon 7. Grundy
