BlackWolf5 26 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Everybody needs to claim down these two teams will play in couple of days and if your a true fan you wouldn't be telling what your team is doing in practice on a message board! As far as #44 for Richlands goes he's a heck of a athlete along with all of his team mates I got a chance to speak to the young man a few days ago and all he want is the best for his team and there is no I to him it takes the hold team to go chase that dream of a state championship that's all he wants for his team is to give them all he has each game and make it back to Salem! So whoever keeps posting just give it to #44 remember it takes a hold team to win! Good luck to both teams this week should be one heck of a game!

I would actually rather face a single wing this year than a passing attack like Richlands had last year. Man he was so awful!! An yes wastes alot of talent when he was there. D coach we got now knows his stuff!! Union_Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniON_FoOtBaLL 68 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Man I love the landsharks!! Some of the fans made a huge banner when the D makes a good play they stretch it across the stands. The whole team does the landshark gesture with there hands on there helmet. I love it gives them something to look forward to if they make a big play. The guy who made the sign, that is awesome man!!

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 13 hours ago, Counts said: There is no way he can be back with any type of mobility A full Achilles tear is a 6-month proposition to something resembling full recovery. However, it only takes about 6 weeks to get to a full weight-bearing load. That’s probably the disconnect...he probably walks perfectly normal by this point, but is just not able to athletically go. If the tear was a full tear and not a partial tear, it would be completely irresponsible for Richlands to send him out there Friday night. And Mance won’t do that. A partial tear? Still, I think it’s much too risky for a young man who has the rest of his life to be active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I know about Achilles injuries is that it usually takes around 6 weeks before you can even START physical therapy. I hope for his case he is ready to go, but I hope he's not put into a situation to where he takes one shot to the Achilles and has to have another surgery. A receiver for Tennessee High tore his ACL against Lee in week 2 and was back and scoring touchdowns before the end of the regular season. Also scored in their playoff game against South Doyle last week I believe. Not sure what the comparison is between the ACL and Achilles as far as which is worse, but just saying people can apparently return from devastating injuries in a fairly short amount of time with success these days.

I mean, you already have that sickening stylized "U" logo, all you need is to have whoever duplicate that chain and paint the "U" orange and navy blue instead of orange and pukey green and there you go. :D Back to what offense Richlands is running this Friday, I hear somewhere they were going with the "oop de oop". Because after all, it did work for Jonathan Moxson at West Canaan, Texas back in the day. :D mv91, Ryan4VT and jarhead24219 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mv91 259 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 If the young man physically feels like he can play and the doctors feel it is ok to give it a shot, I would say go for it. If he was a Junior, I would definitely not take the chance but as a Senior, you know this young man wants to be out there with his brothers. This young man was a beast in scrimmages this summer. I hope the young man gets a chance to play tomorrow night. I would think his body will tell him rather quickly whether his Achilles is ready or not. If he has been practicing, his Achilles has likely already told him whether he is ready to go or not!! From what I have seen from him on the sidelines this season, he seems to be a great team mate and always encouraging the other guys!! Best of luck to him no matter what he decides to do.

Lol. After last weekend, I want to drive to Miami myself and steal the chain and melt it into the fiery depths of hell. I'd rather have a lunch pail than a ugly gold chain anyday. :) 100% agreed on Varsity Blues. Side note, if you have the new Madden video game and play the storyline mode, I'm like 98% sure that those radio announcers in that are the same guys who are in that movie. :) Union_Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it gets them fired up and another "W" in the record then I'm all for it.

Different injuries and different recovery periods, Achilles being more serious and lengthier recuperation. It’s not uncommon for people to come back from partial ACL tears in a matter of weeks, and full tears in 3 months or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May have to pull out the DVD over the weekend. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
