1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Losing Campbell was a big blow to Burton. Hes a kid who can go off for 30 at any moment. To me Culbertson was the key to that team but Campbell was a great compliment. Great season for Burton. I was hoping they would win it because it may show that the Cumberland was one of the toughest 1A districts in the state this year. Burton, TS, RC and Eastside were all solid. TW even came on at the end of the season to challenge each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I’m sure little ol’ Radford is ducking the big, bad, 1986 Celtics lookalikes called Union. That’s absurd. BigWinners 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say that? I'm implying they're trying to assert their dominance psychologically and trying to bully and push Union around. Basically the exact opposite of what you said. You just keep on being wrong. Your wrong streak is reaching epic porortions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're trying to play the state title game Sunday. As of now, the winner of the semi has all of one day to prepare but I'm also confident if Radford wins they won't play Sunday. Union would have to, if they win, but Radford? Doubtful. you guys are acting like I'm implying Radford is dodging anyone. False. Read my posts in the other thread, a Union fan called me out for being too pessimistic. You may have not saw the posts that's fine, the other person most certainly did and still decided to pretend that's the point I was making. I'm implying Radford was using their considerable power to decide when the game gets played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said at 10:00-10:30 the weather was starting to get bad in pearisburg and I'm sure Radford too...by the time they get back home it's past 10:30....as I said better safe than sorry...it's a game....those roads could have made something worse happen....for a basketball game that can and was easily moved to another day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it's all gonna magically be fixed by tomorrow. If I thought it was a serious hazard, I get it, move the game. But to me what made the most sense was move the game up an hour or two and play and get Radford home by 10pm or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm not illustrating my point very well. My point has been pushing the game to Friday, after the storm hits and the temperature drops, seems less logical than to get the game in, maybe earlier Wednesday, and then let the storm hit. I can't find the most accurate weather history maps, this one keeps going from Radford to Roanoke, says precipitation didn't start in Roanoke until after 1am. So in the hour or so between the two places, seems like the weather would start, not at its worst but simply start to rain/snow, at 11pm-midnight. https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/va/radford/KROA/date/2021-2-18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 I expect Radford to win. Never once implied or stated otherwise. My entire point was it did not make sense to me to try and play the game in the immediate aftermath of a storm as opposed to before the storm. All indications were the weather would start to get bad in Radford around midnight on Wed. To me what made the most sense was to attempt to get Radford home by midnight, but I guess I'm wrong. Not the first time, won't be the last. I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they were, I was wrong. I believe they would have been fine Wed, to me it made more sense to try and beat the storm as opposed to waiting and hoping but it cleared up and everything worked out.
