tbgfan 855 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 I have become a fan of the Holston Cavaliers and hoping they can pull out the win. I think some may consider it an upset if they beat Burton. Holston's QB has so many dimensions in his game, he will be a threat from quarter one to quarter four. The Cavaliers have very capable receivers also and a "tackling machine" named Blevins. His first name slips my mind. That_guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW_VA_boy 492 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Between the two, if Narrows can finally get over the Galax hump and that's a HUGE if, I'd prefer Burton. Only reason being is if I can't obtain a ticket and if you guys would have us, I'd probably try and park in that church parking lot behind and above the press box at Lawson-Fitchko and watch it from there like we do from Holston St. in Narrows.

Imagine the lawsuits should evidence of a school/parent/coach/community coverup be found. That would be one idiotic way to eliminate public school athletics altogether.

If the kid is symptomatic, of course get them tested; otherwise if they've just been exposed quarantine them. That's what happens anyway to kids who are asymptomatic. They really do nothing to treat them, maybe tell them to take Vitamin D and/or Vitamin C. There's really no need to get tested otherwise in my opinion just self quarantine and don't expose others.

There are districts in our state where kids haven't stepped foot in an actual school building since last March. We won't truly know the negative impact and ramifications of these restrictions and lockdowns on our kids, their social/emotional well-being, & their education for many years to come.

I understand what you're saying with asymptomatic kids but if someone's been exposed gotta get em tested because gotta try and control the spread and reduce chance of a larger outbreak.

I didn't get tested when I was exposed. Self-quarantined. If you quarantine, you're not spreading it. Kids don't effectively spread the virus and much less likely to give it to adults according to most up-to-date research. Health department told me there was no need to get tested unless I developed symptoms. The protocol is a lot different now than a year ago especially with so many that have chosen to get vaccinated. You don't even have to quarantine if you've been exposed and had the vaccine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with quarantining and such if the person hasn't been in close contact with others before they realized it and went into quarantine. But if the person didn't realize it and was around others, it's prob safer for those people to get tested and make sure, there have been cases of coaches dying and stuff.

I hate hearing this for the Burton Raiders. There is an article in Bristol newspaper today on the Culbertson kid. To have this game gone "in a heartbeat, " aren't any words to ease the pain.
