beano5 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 and its not the fact that Graham maybe is the better team??? out of all your posts i have noticed you havent really given Graham the credit for winning..you have said that it was Marion's fault..Marion should have done this better Marion should have done that better...maybe Graham was just the better team last night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futbolking Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 It was a good hard nosed competitive game. Marion made some critical mistakes that could have changed the outcome... However, that's part of the game, Graham executed a little better than Marion. I think the difference was Graham's huge offensive line, which allowed Graham to run the ball very well and control the clock. Graham ran about 25 more offensive plays than Marion. And Yes, Marion did seem to get a 10 or 12 yard run, every other time they ran the ball. They had several tackles for loss and qb sacks which hurt their total yardage...Graham is a "good" football team, but I don't think anybody that saw that game, as I did last night was in awe of Graham. Graham has a chance to be very good, if they get their defense in gear. I can tell you one fact for certain, however, is that Graham must have more fans that post on this messageboard, than they do that actually show up to watch them at an away football game. Marion is just a one hour drive, regardless of gas prices, what's with less than 150 people at the game? I counted about 140 sitting in the stands...That's ridiculous, I never remember Graham traveling with such a small crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 haha well maybe frogs do have wings cause lance doesnt seem like he knws to much....the teams were pretty even on the ground but, number 1 killed us on the outside though...plus we had lil mistakes that killed us, u take those mistakes out we keep the ball for prolly 3 more minutes on those drives and score yeah I don't know anything...anyone here can tell you that...I think I was 2nd or 3rd overall in the pickem last year and I was 7-1 this week missing only the GW OT game...I missed the score of the Marion game by 1 point...and I told you guys going in to it how it would play out yet you still seem to not believe it after it's over....but, you are right, I don't know anything.

beano5 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 i would have loved to have been there for the game..however did you not think that people actually have other things to do???? i had soccer practice to get ready for my game tonight (btw Bluefield College vs. Averett tonight at 7pm at the East River Soccer Complex). the fact that i had practice AND i dont have a car of my own as of now due to my old car being out of commission for good now.

I counted about 140 sitting in the stands...That's ridiculous, I never remember Graham traveling with such a small crowd. with the gas situation what it was this weekend, I'm guessing that had something to do with it...word was out yesterday morning gas might be $5 a gallon IF you could find it...I know I had a few PM's from people asking if there was any gas in this area? So I'd say that is probably something to consider...plus you get a lot of older fans at the Graham home games that can't travel...I noticed that myself the last time I sat over on Graham's side...although I admit I felt out of place lol. I think the gas situation kept more than a few at the house though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit the Grundy games mostly, but depending on who they are playing or what other games are going on I might travel to some other place...this week it was Abingdon vs. Richlands....was a toss up for that or the Marion vs. Graham game...but my friend I went with wanted to go see Richlands so that's where we ended up going. Nothing better than going out to the games and sitting in the stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
