Jacob C. Ball

I could understand that, if he is not throwing to commercial or throwing out a sponsors name that is...

I'm telling you, the refs in this game (just judging from Ron Brown's reporting) sound absolutely pitiful in this Union/Richlands game.

Got to catch this game, Grundy played alright, but the field was god awful. Even the refs couldn't get around that field. Every time that ball hit the mud/grass it would just make a thud in the mud. Truly was a mud bowl. But, Grundy will be something in the next couple of years, I keep hearing that their team is really young this year.

What happened? The VHSL got a gag order on all of you? Post 'em!

Hey, could you post that vid if possible? Would love to see that, had to leave at the end of the 2OT to head to work.

So, is this over with already? Damn, I was just getting into it, can the bickering go on for about 10-15 more pages?

Well, damn, the wheels on this thread graudially fell off over the course of ten pages. lol. I am taking Richlands in this game, I will be on the sidelines rooting that way, but VA High may come in determined and take this ball game. Just don't want the blues coming in with their head so full of air because of all the praise the last couple of weeks has got them.

I knew I would be in for a good thread when VA High won, but Jethro is knocking it out of the park this week.

Anyone hear anything about who Richlands will have in the playoffs?

There were a couple of fouls, celebrations and some pushing after the whistle this go around but no fighting.

I say they will have some "cheap seats" for this as they will want to fill out the stadium to break the attendence record. I am there either way.

Now, correct me if I am wrong here, but isn't Fort Chiswell #1 in Single A and Galax #2 in 2-A.

I was too far away to see both, but I agree with the "pass vs fumble". I even told the people I was standing with that it looked like a forward pass to me.

Richlands was without a starting running back, both tackles, a quarterback (technically), plus Frank was hurt and Zeke got hurt half way through, so I was say injuries were all around. Tazewell played a HELL of a ball game and should have won that ball game by 6, but Richlands captialized on those turnover and the very few mistakes that Tazewell made. Hopefully this week off should help the boys get ready for the final three game push to the post season. I think the big thing that hurt Tazewell and call me crazy here, but trying the onside every time they kicked off, they had Richlands beat on yards the entire game, but that is only because they squibed it every time. As for ref goes, you will get all the compliants and I get that, but for every call on Richlands and Tazewell, I could see a reason for. Unfortunately, them rambling around the field was not wanted though, I guess they wanted to look like they didn't know what they were doing.
