taz_11 10 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I usually start enjoying it about 2 weeks in when you actually start doing something. Our first couple of weeks in nothing but run,run,and run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHS06 10 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 i have been enjoying soccer the past couple of months we have been playing whenever possible the first couple weeks of practice will probably suck, ah heck all of our practices will suck, no full field scrimmages!

Highlandsfan 10 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I just saw where Tazewell opens up with Virginia High, Abingdon, Marion, and Virginia High again. This should give everyone a pretty good read on how well the two districts compare with each other since this is suppose to be Tazewells best team ever. I know Marion will be a very strong team this year, Abingdon is loaded again, and Virginia High returns pretty much everyone and they added two exchange students that are suppose to be pretty good. I cant wait to see how this turns out. Good luck to everyone and i hope both districts are strong this year so we can bring the region championship and runner-up back to southwest Virginia.

beano5 14 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 well...dont necessarily think that...Tazewell always says they have the best team at the beginning of the year...they always talk about how they are gonna kill everyone...but truth is....Graham is a soccer dynasty and we will come away with the district....we have one of the best teams in Graham history....

carrollfan 15 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Soccer dynasty HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Now I am not saying that Graham is not a good team but if you want to talk about a dynasty then you need to talk about Blacksburg. Until Graham or anyone from the SWD can win the Region or even win a state playoff game then I would not be talking about a dynasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahamcmid08 10 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 granted we aren't a dynasty in the state we are by far a dynasty in the district...and movin up to becomin a dynasty contender for the region Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 usually Graham gets whipped by single A Radford every time they play them. Last year, a Floyd team loaded with Freshmen and sophomores gave them a hard time. Floyd was practically a J.V. team. And Floyd usually finishes 3rd or 4th in their single A district... Dynasty? I think not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsoccer10 10 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 dynasty as far as the SWDis concerned.. absolutely.. winning 13 out of 15 district titles is a dynasty.. enough said.. if you are really gonna say that 13 out of 15 championships in the district would not be considered a dynasty.. just wait til graham makes it 14 out of 16 this season and beats some sense into you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrollfan 15 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 We are not saying that your school has not controlled the SWD. But when you talk about using that word dynasty, then you usually are talking about being the best at what you do. Take the cowboys of the 90's, they were a dynasty because they won the superbowl like three times not because they won the NFC east. When you start talking about a dynasty in soccer then you would have to be talking about blacksburg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend11 32 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 I totally agree with Carrollfan on this one. Graham has, sort of, had their way within the SWD, but struggle when they get outside of it. Once Graham can move to the next level, they can be considered a dynasty. Another trend that I am seeing, is the increased play and ability of other schools, for instance Tazewell. It wasn't too long ago that they were getting beat 12-0 by teams, while now, they are putting up better fights. It should be an interesting season. Good luck fellas.

[/ QUOTE ] your whole statement is wrong, we had no trouble with floyd and radford never whips us. i consider the atl braves a dynasty, and they only have one world series graham is definitely a dynasty, if you dont want to call us a dynasty, call us a powerhouse.

carrollfan 15 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I would agree with the powerhouse statement. I would like for you to know that in the ten years that we have had a team we have won the district tournament three times and the regular season two times. We have not been in the SWD for all ten years either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
