parsons 178 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) Didn't mean to touch a nerve big fella just saying they have competed with the man and yes they have beat the man and yes apparently losing to the d4 champion by a touchdown and a point over a two year period is definitely competing with the man. A school with 1300 kids year in and year out. I have no fight with you on this just stating some facts. Oh and those two games were within the last EIGHT YEARS The "man", to Cave Spring in the playoffs, is not Salem. It would be whomever they are competing with for a regional championship. The closest they have been to "challenging the man" over the last 8 years is two 21 point losses in regional championship games.

..... 10 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Yo parsons why trip you don't need to get cought in what critics say. anybody can give there opinion it means nothing and marion has been playing well lately and seems to me all richlands is thinking about is cave or is it just you. 6 weeks ago i wonder how many people would think graham would be in the posistion there in now....not to many.....graham has proven what people say doesn't make a difference. Hell half the people who post on here is probably bored sitting in computer class or killing some time at work. All i'm saying is every post that is made on this board makes no difference in the outcome on friday night. It takes zero know how to criticize.

They have not won a regional title this decade I guess. I guess by your definition they have not competed with the man either. I was making reference to facts that they have played some pretty good competition and won or hung right in there. Hard to believe the next smallest team in the river ridge is almost 1100 and the biggest is 1600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmmountaineer 10 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Yea maybe...but at least we got there. It may help too that our coach actually knows the rules of football...but good luck next year! Maybe you'll beat Grundy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I didn't take issue with making Cave the favorite. I didn't take issue with predicting Cave to win by 10+.........If you will read my posts, you will see that I said every team in the River Ridge would finish 1st or 2nd in the SWD. I took issue with his assertion that a 10+ point victory was an "easy pick" and to "mark it down". So, somebody picked the other team....get over it...you haven't gotten past Marion yet. and CS hasn't gotten past Graham yet...Let the kids play the game and talk about Richlands and Cave Spring next week.....if it happens.

Let's not have debate on a sports forum........ But I do appreciate your post.......it points out that nothing in the playoffs is a given.... As for your wish that I "get over it", I appreciate the concern, but really, I don't think that the stress level caused by my debating folks on here is going to cause any heavy harm.

grahams hero 10 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Whats the point in arguing what someone thinks. It's like a player arguing with a reff you're not going to change what he thinks. So just move on and screw what other people think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 So now we're arguing about arguments??? I think that Marion will make a good showing tomorrow night, the kids believe they can win and that's what's important. Marion has been getting more and more confident the past couple of years. They believe they can beat Richlands. I believe the can make a good game of it and beat Richlands if they stay focused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally expect the game to be a bigger blowout than last time, but you never know. Over the last few years Marion has only been competitive against Richlands when playing at home.

Let me be the first to tell you that you are correct if the blues come out sluggish they could be in a 14-21 point hole in a hurrie and then marion eats the clock. This game is going to be a classic and people are taking for granted that we beat Marion the first time I am telling you that game was alot closer than the scoreboard said it was Marion went step for step with the blues just got hurt on the big plays if they can somehow stop the big play then Marion wins this game. Trust me THEY ARE NOT PUSHOVERS it will take the blues A game to win tommarrow I will be stunned if it is anything more than a 1-3 point victory for either team.

Rhschamps04 15 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 With all due respect, I think you went to far out on your limb, but I would love to see the Gmen in the upset. It has all the signs for a upset. You got Cave Spring probably looking ahead to Liberty in the state semis. They probably think they can just show up for this game since they blew the gmen out in the first one and we all know that the g-men have improved alot since then. The g-men come in off of a huge win against a rival as cave spring is coming in after blowing a 14 point lead to Hidden Valley. If cave spring is not very careful they could lose this game easy the G-Men are going to show up to play they have been in playoff mode for weeks now and I just have a feeling Cave Spring is going to overlook them.

Nadoball 18 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 I do see CS overlooking Graham but I still think CS gets the win. If Richlands beats Marion I don't see CS overlooking Richlands b/c of our history in the playoffs. I don't think your looking at another 55-12 game but I can see 42-14 or 42-20.

CPF 411 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 I love how all the Richlands fans are thinking Graham is going to win, or rooting for us.......It may just be so they don't have to go down there next week, or so they might have an easier game against Graham in a rematch. Sorry, but it isn't happening. Graham has improved, but lets be realistic here. 2 wins versus Tazewell, one against Grundy,Carroll County,and Abingdon. The only team that might be considered above average is CC. Tonight they play a quality team once again, probably the best team we have faced this year and although I would like to see us win, we probably won't. Get ready Richlands, we see what you really have next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
