VivaFutbol 10 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) The game was more lopsided than the 18 point difference suggest. But with about 9 minutes to go, #81 (Jordan Blevins I believe) looked to have a serious injury. The game was stopped for about 20 minutes and he was taken away on a stretcher. Holston fans, if you hear anything let us know. And keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Edited October 11, 2008 by VivaFutbol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VivaFutbol 10 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 1st off you scored on our backups backup DB on your last TD. And we are up 18, why take the starters out? Refs? How could they be bad. I saw the clock was at 0:00 and then the ref threw the flag. Excuses, excuses. You (Holston, even though you are a Marion fan, I believe.) are mad because you got blown out. The score was kind to Holston, the score makes it sound a lot closer than it was. And still hoping the young man is ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefactman 10 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 well to shut everybody up i like to see holston beat chilhowie(not going to happen) and chilhowie beat wyheville(probably not going to happen) and we get one BIG OL' TIE!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballFan 10 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 First off I must say that I hope Jordan is ok and I wish him a speedy recovery. I saw him and Will collide and immediately knew something was wrong. Obviously nobody is smiling because a player got hurt. The refs seemed to make a few questionable calls but I don't think it was that bad. And I'm pretty sure there wasn't any time left on the clock when the ump threw the delay flag. He was too busy staring at his play clock the entire game to be watching the game clock. Holston ran the ball very well tonight. Seemed like they had a lot of 2nd and short situations but just couldn't capitalize. I can see why #15 is the leading rusher in the Hogo. Not a very big back but he's got some moves. Usually the running game opens up the passing game first but for GW tonight the passing game opened up the running game. Jacob threw very well tonight. It's always nice to see the good kids do well. Good win for the Maroons tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â Â Jordan is OK...I talked to a few fans and they said that he was released from the hospital...Good Game (It sounded like it on the radio)...What calls did you question?...From what I can gather the only two calls that I question is the spot on the play before the half and the block in the back to take away a TD in the 3rd (those were the officials calls...Would have made it 30-27 in the 4th)...Seems like they had success offensively and didn't quit...I mean think I heard the radio guy say last year it was 35-0 at the half...somthing he's calling must be working...Good Luck to the Cavs the rest of the way...They will be my adopted team come playoff time since my falcons don't look like they are going to get in!!!

VivaFutbol 10 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 The spot on the goaline. He was well short of the first down, so I can't see how that was questionable. Â The block in the back call, I am confused on how people think a block in the back is a bad call. If the block in the back didn't happen, odds are, the guy wouldn't have scored. Â (vols4life) Also I yet to see how refs can screw over a team that lost 31-13 which could have been a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ftbll4lfe 10 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 The refs moved the ball back about a half of a yard from where the first ref had placed the ball while the chains were coming out. the ref had that whistle in his mouth the whole game. he really liked to blow it too! only on holston of course bc thats the way it is when you either go to the football field in Wytheville or on the Basketball court in Marion. Jordan is ok, somebody called and they said he was walking around before he got discharged from the hospital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you have questioned the same calls had you won? There are plenty of times, even in NFL games, that we don't understand as spectators why a call was made. It is just easier to blame the refs than to admit when we are beaten. Many times there are good explanations as to why calls were made, but that would take away our excuse for losing. I am not saying this is what you are doing, but it is very common in sports. I have probably done this myself a time or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavdaddy 25 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 First off. I have to vent. We (holston) dont get any respect, not from the football community and referee community. I'm tired of the striped shirts not getting the job done. The qualifications for that job must be breathing. They missed the first down call and I'm yet to see a block in the back. Those would have made a world of difference in the game. We got screwed last year with the refs in the ph game and took another this year up there. Who is over the refs? I liked to give him or them a call! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VivaFutbol 10 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 If you would have got the first down, would you have scored? Maybe, maybe not. You would have scored on the block in the back, but that would have been your last score as we still would of had our full strength defense in and you wouldn't of burned our regular corner like they did. Refs aren't the reason you lost. You were beat by a better football teams. Proves you are still gonna be overlooked until you have a quality win, and PH isn't a quality win.

deuceswild 15 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I don't like that excuse either. Regardless of whether or not that kid was a starter, that was a good pass and catch from what I seen on the video. The coverage was pretty tight..two guys there. (if that is indeed the play you're talkin about). Not many defenders would have been there to cover that given the nature of the play.
