rjhall71 got a reaction from Hokie Bound in Important…
14 years I have been a member and I have never seen anything like I've seen on here lately. This board was my go to back in the day when I lived in Carlisle PA because I was able to still keep up with all the football in good ole SWVA. GMan can't say I would blame you for doing it but I hope it doesn't come to that. No matter what is chosen to be done though thanks for all of these years of having us a place to talk and discuss SWVA sports.

I don't have a dog in the 1A Region D or C teams but a fully healthy GW might beat Grundy with no problem. It's not 100% a given and Grundy may end up in Salem over the Region C Champion. If they do, I'll cheer for them being from SWVA. But any team on any day can lose for a myriad of reasons. I just wouldn't count those chickens before they hatch.

I just think you should play where your numbers put you.

rjhall71 reacted to GMan in Graham vs Union
I'm closing this thread with a final thought...
The rest of the Mountain 7 fans are correct...Union fans are the biggest bunch of crybabies in this end of VA, not to mention the rudest bunch at games.
It's really sad that some of you take this so seriously. I suggest you get help or stop going to the games because there is way more in life to be bitching over than a penalty or two.
Sorry about that...rant over...

rjhall71 reacted to stu_bean in Can an announcer????
That's almost as laughable as anything. So shouldn't that include Grundy announcer taking five seconds to say first down for the goooolllllddddenn waaavvvee?
Plus I can think of several other places that get very energetic over a first down as well.

rjhall71 reacted to sixcat in Can an announcer????
Carroll County filed a complaint with VHSL last season resulting in Galax High School receiving a $400 fine by VHSL because a Galax fan had a cow bell in the stands. It was a topic of discussion a few weeks ago leading into the beginning of the season. Galax Administration met with the Marching Band, Band Boosters (me) and the Band Director to discuss what would be allowed and where we should err on the side of caution. Fast forward a year, during the 3rd game of the season week before last at Carroll, their band played while our offense was on the field several times. The PA announcer made several references to "helping out our Cavaliers" by getting loud, their fans had numerous cow bells, and their band walked over behind the endzone and attempted to play over our band right before halftime.
My point is, I don't know what's allowed and disallowed anymore. It's all gotten ridiculous given we live in a perpetual state of butthurt in this country nowadays.

Man why are you always downing the Canes, you do understand these are just kids going out and doing the best they can do right? They can not help the cards they're dealt the most important thing is that they represent Marion each game the best they can.

rjhall71 reacted to Deleted Account in Will a single game be played?
The battle lines for this were drawn when these vaccines were in Stage 2 of their clinical trials. Unless Jesus and Donald Trump hold a joint press conference encouraging people to get the vaccine, no public sentiment will sway the ~30% of "never vaxxers". The only thing that's going to get through to them is to have their father, mother, sister, brother, or child die from COVID-19. That's the ONLY way, and it's so disheartening. It took having my church's children's pastor die for my church's congregation to start giving a semblance of a damn about it. And I've known so many people who thought it was "just the flu" until they had to see the effects of it Clockwork Orange-style. People who get their "news" and medical advice from sites like americanpatriot.baldeagle.beatthelibtards.trump.us aren't going to listen to logic. They aren't going to look at how stark the difference in data is between vaccinated and unvaccinated people. They're only going to listen when they have to carry the casket of someone who died from it. Until then, the stronger their views can be marginalized for the worthlessness they are, the better.
If not for that ~30% of the population, we'd have this thing in the rearview mirror. Instead, we have ~30% of the population brainlessly volunteering themselves to be the control group in this Machiavellian experiment, volunteering themselves to be the breeding ground for sneakier (if weaker) variants of COVID-19 that will eventually evolve to evade vaccines altogether. I'm growing weary of missing activities I used to enjoy and taking umpteen safety precautions to help protect people who don't give a flying fig about protecting me. I'll still do it, because I still love them, but I believe some righteous indignation is in order.

The only buses getting lost at Riverheads are the Augusta County school buses on the days VHSL counts Average Daily Membership!

there y’all go. Need 9 players.
what day do we want to draft? We’ve obviously got a bit longer since the season is still several weeks away.

rjhall71 reacted to Deleted Account in VHSL adopts model 3
For the 742nd time...
Approximately 1 in 6 (16%) people in the US had H1N1, and it killed under 13,000 people. That’s roughly in line with any standard flu. Approximately 1 in 50 people (2%, and I’m rounding up) has had COVID-19, and it has killed 172,000 people (I’m rounding down).
Let’s recap. COVID-19 has affected 1/8 the people of H1N1 and has killed 13 times the number of people of H1N1. You’d have to be willfully stupid to consider this a government conspiracy. Is it politicized? Of course. Are people worrying needlessly? Of course! But my goodness, intelligence seems to have left the building in 2020.

rjhall71 reacted to Ryan4VT in Mance news
Loris is closer to the NC line than it is South Myrtle. This is a chance to retire in VA, go to a vacation destination type of job, not have to teach and get paid to coach while pulling from his VA stuff. Smart life move, IMO. I know I'd do it in a heartbeat.
I only wish we had gotten the chance as a town and fanbase to come together and say thanks for all he's done for our little town.

How many of the folks in the thread can be seen in the infamous viral video from Wise County sandlot a couple of years ago? I mean, odds are pretty high for at least one, amirite?

Regardless of the result, a trip to Wheeling is a successful season. Proud of the Beavers! Just wish they could have brought the title home for Little Tony.
