SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 Donate the horn to Graham for Saturday. It really echos in Mitchell Stadium and the guys on the other side of the field will fear for their life when they hear it.

Appo hates noise. 😂 They had someone come over in 2019 & tell our band to quit playing while Appo was on offense. I only know that because I was sitting on the end of the bleachers next to the band.

While I will say Appo may not like noise I was disappointed when I went to the first Graham/Union game this year and the PA announcer told Union’s band to stop playing 🥴 I’ve never heard an announcer say that.

City of Whiny Wimps. Champions don’t go crying and whining to get the VHSL to move playoff sites because they are afraid they are going to lose like Salem did to Grundy in 1996. A true champion reaches down for that little extra to overcome an obstacle to be a winner. A wimp arse loser whines, complains, makes excuses, and tries to get things changed to their advantage or to disadvantage their opponent. As for City of Champions, you might ought to check out how many state championships Martinsville has in football and basketball and Grundy has in wrestling (20 plus). Hokiebird, after reading some of your rude comments to a couple of posters on this site, we have figured you out and which of the above is the best fit for you. Uncle Percy says you need to change your handle to Arrogant Peacock. Mr. GMan, Uncle Percy says to cash in all of his Mulligans if you think this is too bad or just go ahead and slam The Hammer.

Other than after a touchdown or first down that’s the time the band should be playing is when the opposing team has the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 If BR says it didn't happen, then it didn't happen. If he would have done so, he would have said so. Honesty and BR go hand in hand, but his ability to "influence the officials" in favor of those Beavers is like something out of a storybook.🤪🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefield researcher 1,195 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 You know I got to thinking. I suppose IF Union's band was there AND they were playing (most likely) AND I was not specific about which band I was asking (I don't remember my exact words) I could see how Union's band could misconstrue my intent. If that is the case then I apologize for not making my intent clear. For instance, if I said, "Will the band stop playing while Graham has the ball"?. Then who could be sure which band was being asked? Now if I said something like "Will our band", or "Will Graham's band" the it would have been clearer.
