It would be nice if these threads were limited to just score updates.

When will we finally get a decent coaching staff? I’ll tell ya. AFTER THE BEST FOOTBALL PLAYER EVER TO COME THROUGH LEBANON TRANSFERS BECAUSE HE HAS NO SUPPORT 

He’s undisciplined period. He’s suppose to be a mentor. You can’t teach a kid something you do yourself. 

The two in particular were a clipping hit towards the head of creasy and the wrestling supplex on the rb earlier so I can understand 

It’s sad when a head coach gets an unsportsmanlike. Shows why Tazewell is undisciplined as they are. 

I went it for surgery on my wrist one time out in San Francisco and when I woke up from anesthesia, my wrist was fine and didn't hurt, but for some reason, my as$ was on fire. 

Every year people from Central get on the message board and proclaim that. 1. They have this "super group" of athletes coming. 2. They are going to dominate the next season 3. Not just in football but every sport. Same post every year, same results every year!

The whole community of wise seems to have an air of superiority about them. They’re usually one of the worst for smack talking in any sport. 

Been awhile think where getting ready to here Hammer Time 

Watching the body language of the players and jawing back and forth — I don’t think it was about “teaming up.” 
Also, if it was truly about teaming up — wouldn’t Richlands has ran out with them? 

Not sure the story there as.they were lined up at the corner for the regular run out then were signaled to move over there

After 3
Grundy 14
Tazewell 13
Going be a good finish!

That honor goes to Ridgeview 

Seems like Richlands is a mess in general right now. From the school system to the police department. Lol

Richlands has the worst coaching staff in the state of Virginia out of all classifications. 

Well y’all more than made up for not having one then 😂. It’s like a kid with a new toy for the entire game 😂. Bullit Park is a great atmosphere for high school football though. 

The first time I went to BSG to watch Graham, there were Union fans, students I presumed, sitting on the visitor side when we arrived. They yelled and talked crap to fans and players, specifically using the N word regularly in a derogatory way towards Graham fans, players, and coaches. That made me think Union did not have any Black players. I was wrong with that assumption.  I was appalled at those young people. I wanted to shut them up myself, but being a grown man I of course could not.
That was my worst experience as a fan.

This part right here. Fans for the most part are adults. Talk crap to other fans who are also adults. Say what ever you want to the coaches that is just part of the job. Heckle the officials not that it helps but if it makes you feel better go ahead they know what they signed up for. Dont say a word to the players.. These kids are 16 17 years old you are a grown ass man let them play. Now the players shouldnt be talking to fans either but at the same time they are playing an emotional game and are still children. I blame the dude that had one too many natty lights before the game and "paid his 6 dollars" 

The county seat , new field that cost at least 4-5 million but was described as 2 million donation ????? ROTC started at Powell Valley but moved to Central, weight lifting equipment donated by TJones and J Jones stolen and moved to Central , new baseball facilities at Central , new tennis courts and swim team and future swimming pool moved to Central all the while nothing given to Eastside or Union???? I guess that’s what happens when the lawyers and republican leaders kids go there. Yet only the girls bring home the state titles

Central takes the cake.  Several reasons:
1) They are Abingdon lite in their self perception….look down on their counterparts.  An unearned arrogance…..especially with their “super class” last couple of years.
2) Spoke to the Richlands coaches after Mance’s last game (playoff game loss) and everyone of them asked “Are they always this mouthy?” And “mouthiest team we’ve ever played.”
3) Was talking with Trenton Adkins after a RV win at Central and the kid had about 300 yards and dominated them and he said “They trash talked me and called me names up to the last minute and we won by 20+.”
4) They started the practice of taking a team picture sitting on the other teams logo with their “W” sign and then had an absolute fit when RV did that to them last year in the playoffs.
5) Absolutely responsible for the handshake line throw down with the RV Little league team.
Just a team and program that takes every opportunity to rub it in your face when they win.  And a crappy place to watch a game.

Depends on who the hostility is directed at, opponent's fans, players, coaches, our own, or officials.
I hear quite a few insults hurled at officials and our own coaches from the Union fans on a weekly basis. As far as hostile to the visitors, it would have to be GC back in the day, and even so recently. I heard some GC fans yelling at the Radford players after the game last year, calling them cheaters. No reason for a grown man to be yelling at teenagers just trying to play a HS sport. It's different if they're on your lawn. haha
Nicest place would have to be David Crockett. Very nice folks there. I will say that I think Richlands and Union have a mutual respect for one another. I've had several friendly ribbings with random Blues fans over the years, and they've all been great.
The all around just sucks place has to be Central. From students yelling racial slurs to smack talking fans or just beyond rude gate workers. Can't stand going there.

Fort Chiswell comes to mind for me as being one of the worst fan bases. I recall a game at Mitchell in which they talked trash non-stop. The following year I got to the game late and decided to just sit on Fort's side. That was a mistake. Kinda surprised me honestly. When I think of Fort Chiswell I think of a quiet farming community. They can sure raise some hell on Friday nights.

It was blown as soon as the Graham player caught it. But there wasn’t any time left on the clock. Should have probably been halftime. But hey, I’ll take the points 😂

It depends on when the whistle happened.  If it was after Graham took possession then Graham could take the play at the time of the whistle and keep possession. If it was when the ball was loose, then Richlands had the option to take the results of the play at the time of the whistle to replay the down.  A few variables on that play. 

Easiest way to fix that is for VH$L to reduce the number of classifications to 4.
But that won't happen because of the $ in VH$L.
