bandsucks 10 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Personally I hate band with a passion. I use to be in it when i waz in high school and IT SUCKS!! I dont c y they are even at the games. they should do their little competions wat they do best at and the football team should play their games what the definetly do best. I dont c how u could even call band a sport or even a semi sport. It prbly is a little hard work but i mean seriously NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING A SPORT!

Fresh_Prince 10 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 band isn't a sport so all yall band people just stop trying to get it called a sport. your not ever going to be on ESPN for breaking a sweat on 110 degree turf for 10 days or however long band camp is. REAL ATHLETES spend over a month in 110 degree heat every year. you may like band in high school but i know way over half the people in my grade are only taking band for a high school credit then dropping out. i really dont see the point in doing it for that, BAND IS NOT A SPORT, get that in your head. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are cheering competitions.  Do yourself a favor and go to a band competition next year. I bet you'll find new respect for the band when you see that what they do really isn't all that different from what you do.  By the way, that month the football team spends practicing in 100 degree heat... So does the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumpet1988 289 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Buddy, I never said band was a sport. I said I really don't care whether or not it's a sport-I still like it anyway. I'm sure most other band people feel that way. Â I was pretty much telling that guy who defined a sport that he might want to use a better argument. I could really care less whether band were a sport or not. It won't make me like it any less if it were or were not. Â I respect that what athletes do is hard work. I expect the same.

Fresh_Prince 10 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 yeah in those months the band is practicing in 100 degree heat, what are they doing to break a sweat besides doing those little step us things or running a couple laps. i watched them practice all summer while i was playing football, they didnt do anything hard. if you think those little step ups are hard, try doing those on bleachers instead of just standing there lifting your legs up in the air, try doing wind sprints instead of running a lap. big difference between those two...and the only reason band competitions come on is because the bands pay ESPN x amount of money just to be on ESPN like all the athletes.

Fresh_Prince 10 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 not as good as Hidden Valley's band, they were awesome. best band ive heard at a high school football game. i have a question about the RHS band, "Why were there college students playing in the band yesterday."

thundercloud 179 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 From what I understand a couple of students had to take the SATs so the band couldn't have done the half-time show for the fans without them. They wanted to make sure to do the show, to show support for the team. You would have to be sitting on the other side to see how impressive our band is. GREAT JOB BAND, GREAT JOB TEAM. Boy, I'm PROUD to be from Richlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh_Prince 10 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 people from richlands that sat on the other side are the ones that told me that Hidden Valley's band was better than ours. It seemed like they actually knew football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 They did have a good band but I wish Richlands could've had everyone there. The TV guys made the comment that "The Richlands band put on a nice show before the game but they're a 10 point underdog to Hidden Valley!"
