And that shtick is exactly why the plug was pulled indefinitely on the game in addition to previous shenanigans.

Your coached declined and it makes you look bad.

Only ones that seem to be upset are the ones that wear purple...... Sp has nothing to gain by playing MC

With the bad blood between these teams it is best that the rivalry take a break. I won’t go into it here but for you late to the game, look up the news story’s from November 1, 2013. I have a ESPN video story about what happened but will not post it here due to embarrassing MC.. I say let’s start anew by ending this rivalry for good. It’s not good for the players or fans.

I heard today that South Pittsburg declined Marion County's invitation to renew the State's oldest rivalry starting in 2023. Most people know that South Pittsburg's former head coach Chris Jones cancelled the rivalry and then resigned after only a couple of games. Both the new coaches know what this rivalry means and all the credit goes to the MC staff for trying to renew this great rivalry.

FACT

Just when I thought I was done posting on the T, God gave me this thread! LMAO. Gotta love an old rivalry. Thank you...you've made this old man's weekend

Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it Pruitt that canceled the first game and then refused to reschedule it.

Maybe that Reeves man that took over for that Childress man can come up with a better playoff formula in a Z plan type alignment. That way, regardless of who ended what, we would be back in the same district once again. Then your annual butt-whooping would recommence.

Pirates picked up a better rivalry game with a very lucrative gate

I know a little more than you think I do about old Jasper...I wouldn't be bringing up recruits if I was you!

just like y'alls recruits

About the only thing that Starky man could run up is 300 yards of Krylon.

You are welcome to go up to Canada and pat Jasper Jones on the back. Just double check which team he is with before you head out.

We can be certain that Trousdale will be in the thick of it and Tyner will underachieve

Living rent free...nothing more to talk about. Games not happening so move on.

It’s not the states oldest rivalry that ended 2 years ago. Tap your self on the back for that.

It is the State's Longest Rivalry, no one else can say that, you have something that Chattanooga, Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, all other cities and counties in TN doesn't have and they can't get it, as long as you get these 2 teams back together, once 2 other teams take your spot you will never get it back. It is the ultimate Friday Night in TN, they made movies about this stuff. South Pittsburg and a guy that has been in Canada for the last 25 years ruined it. MC's new head coach is the one who has moved on and said forget about the past 2 years and let's play. But NOOO! South Pittsburg "we don't want to play, we ain't got nothing to gain blah blah blah". Whatever thanks ruining it!

First it’s not hearsay, it’s 100% true. Second, this is a terrible excuse. We have heard this before and the kids done great. I’ve seen two teams that hated each other, I have seen two teams that showed more class then the parents off the field. If you want to get into embarrassing stories, then go ahead because Pittsburg stories are just as embarrassing.

Much larger? It's a 1A and a 2A school...

The 9th grade team looked solid last night against Bruceton Central’s varsity in 7v7 action.

My guess is that Marion County has a much larger enrollment than S.P. I suggest that M.C. call up Murfreesboro Riverdale to start a rivalry with them.

Would hurt to see in the news that Marion reeled up 300 + yards rushing most likely. Any other reason not to play st this point?

Me too, and I was looking forward to finding out if he had "real" opinions on different regions and classifications. PayPal would have been nice, and would have made DS more money.

Whether you like him or not , he did a great job of promoting Tennessee football.

Tennessee finishes in 6th place overall in Cadet Greco. 6th freaking place. This has to be our highest finish ever. I would doubt we’ve ever finished top 10 before. Tennessee finished ahead of Missouri, OHIO, Minnesota, Illinois, Georgia- just crazy.

Rhea County at Sequatchie 7/29

Thank you. This Band of Pirates will come together and give it their all.

Unlike Biden, we keep our pipeline open.

School consolidation solves this problem.
