44cov3 55 Report Share Posted October 19, 2022 I doubt this years Giles team jumps on that game; they've been beat up a little and still some very physical games left. I'd say they probably just take an extra bye week to get prepared and healthy. It would be fun to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Just heard that Craig cancelled on Narrows for this Friday. And it’s Narrows homecoming game which makes it even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VHSLhelper 571 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Their parade is a couple of hours away.... that should get the word spread if true. Maybe a county rematch? They don't have too many more opportunities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m all for a another county clash rematch but since there’s a chance the two will play each other in 2 weeks(playoffs) I don’t see it happening this week.

I know everybody wants to win their homecoming, but geeeesh. As successful as Narrows has been the last 5 or so years, are they still that insecure enough to have to wait til week 10, and schedule Craig Co.

Pegasus 27 20 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Does Craig mention anything about the Covington game. It matters big time to James Monroe, WV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "kids tried." The only sympathy and empathy allowed is for Graig County only, and Only the teams that cancel during the season. There can be absolutely no sympathy or empathy for the teams effected by the canceled teams. That's not allowed. Once again, if you are without Michael Jordan's number, 23, on the field for game 1, you don't get to have a season. If you cancel mid-season, then you don't get to schedule district games for the next 2 years when you resume football. There are too many teams Athetic Directors getting a pass at the beginning of the season when they do NOT have enough, and ANY one event or hit quickly derails the season because there's no margin for error. This gets chalked up to the ole "college try and effort." In truth, it's borderline ignorance and somewhat narcissistic because I NEVER hear others sympathy for the Other teams effected by the cancelation.

Pegasus 27 20 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 What I've noticed is the elephant in the room. Schools only cancel games they can't win. CPF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, low numbers with ZERO margin for error for injuries or key events. It absolutely does suck for the kids at Craig, but it is also unfair to Narrows. See the problem with trying to make "all equal or everything fair"? We get left with 2 unfairs instead of 1 unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost 20% of their roster from the start of the season. Multiple injuries and players quitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
