WINNING IS THE ANSWER

749 — All-time wins by South Pittsburg, which is celebrating its 100th season as a program. The Pirates’ overall record is 749-254-39, and they are the only program in the state, regardless of classification, that has played in a championship game in all seven decades of the TSSAA’s playoff format. South Pitt also has 95 all-time playoff wins, which is 31 more than the next-closest area football program (Georgia’s Calhoun) and ranks fourth among all TSSAA programs, trailing only Maryville (137), Alcoa (134) and Brentwood Academy (108

It is understandable that area opponents have a dislike & commonly bad comments for OS. I'm not going to waste time on discussing cheap shots and the like. But the prevention of visiting team's fans & parents on the field after the game while allowing home fans is terrible. However, with Coalfield next door, perhaps the decision, according to security was an administration rule. Other regular common opponents may have more comments. OS should not be a regular scheduled game. Congratulations to the Pirates on the win & for remaining relatively composed.

Great matchup, the Cougar's crowd was terrible for a team ranked #1. Congrats to the Pirates on the huge win against very good tough opponent.

Michael was a part of a great group of kids I coached during little league. Michael has always been a True Pirate. Thoughts and prayers for an always supportive & loyal Pirate & fan!

The Pirates really came to play tonight while displaying a glimpse of their potential when playing as a focused team. Congratulations to the players & coaches, absolutely the best performance to date. Those close to the program know / realize the challenges & distractions this team has battled through to this point. Celebrate today & then refocus on a very good Gordonsville team coming to town with plans to end your season! On another very important point, it is embarrassing to see the stands showing the appearance of a visiting Lookout Valley team! Who ever is in charge of allowing streaming the game next week need to put an end to that! The Gordonsville game will be the last home game of the season, so get your azzes out of the recliner and support the team by filling the stands up! GO PIRATES

I'm a guy of few words, however there comes a time & place to speak. You sir, although supposedly new on these threads. You and several of your friends are embarrassing to people that know you. But since you hide only in the shadows few can identify you face to face. I rarely come slumming in this cess pool of BS. You guys up the road need to worry about who your next coach will be. The Pirates will fine, like they have always been. If you would like to talk man to man about real problems, pick up the phone and call. Johnny Stone, grow up, you guys sound like a bunch of girls.

I have to respond when a democrat speaks, these days usually there is a lie coming. For those who had head their heads in the sand. The democrats are the ones that supported a socialist in Bernie Sanders for POTUS, Had to cheat Bernie Again to push China Biden to be their puppet of the seriously corrupted political party. Joe Biden can not complete 4 sentences without a telaprompter without getting lost. You have the audacity to speak about where someone lives mentally, Sad. Donald Trump will be your President again. Countless corrupt politicians mostly on the left will be behind bars and should be hanged! Make them pay President Trump & Go Vols! A shout out to all players & especially Hunter Frame, Jared Stone, JJ Beene & Gio Davis of SP.

Pick up the phone and call me. I will be happy to provide the answer you seek, privately. This site is crazy bad. Feel free to block your # too, I do not care who you are.

It is sad, there are so many grownups on this site that set terrible examples for our kids today bashing coaches & kids. The Pirates lost to a very good Fayetteville squad who did what they had to do to win. My brother lived in the Fayetteville area and we talked about the great opportunity for this program to prosper quickly. This success will bring even more continued success for the program. Regards to all. Regardless of the lies written in these prior pages, the Pirates proudly took their Runner Up trophy. In fact it was loaded onto the ATV that hauled my grandson Jared Stone after he ended his career on crutches facing surgery and equipment back to the buses. Now to address my local neighbors up the road that regularly misrepresent honesty & good sportsmanship. The Pirates will proudly put the trophy in their trophy case for all you jealous neighbors to view regularly. Life is too short to waste so much time regularly responding to people that usually have little integrity, knowledge or plain jealous of the accomplishments of another group of young men. That said, this football fan would like to give a huge shout out to the Fayetteville Tigers for winning their 1st State Championship. I was lucky enough to be on SP's 1st State Championship way back in 1969. As my teammates number diminish it increasingly becomes more important what is truly most important. Congratulations to the seniors for the Pirates for displaying leadership throughout your high school careers, while most can only wish for such success. Thanks for the memories, the Pirate program is strong and start the 2021 season off with expectations of returning to the state championship, as they do annually. Happy Holidays

Agree 100%, I wear a mask when needed. Outside in wide open spaces isn't one of them. National Political politics bias narrative has trickled down to TSSAA and local government .

You still trying to tell posters to shut up? lol

Thank you sir for showing some think they know more than they do and are easily herded like sheep. Your name calling is laughable and usually comes from a liberal. The game attended sold 150 tickets to visitors. A local family of 3 none were wearing masks which included 1 in the medical field & I were standing talking . This guy comes into the 6 foot distancing guideline telling us we needed to wear masks. We immediately look around, the majority of those breaking the 6 ft guideline was him, officials, law enforcement and the 100+ football players between the lines. I have plenty of family & friends in the medical field and few agree with what is being forced on the public. Yes kids do need to be in school to become educated. BTW, I am far from uneducated.

You are entitled to your opinion. Politics is at play here and to refuse to acknowledge is a mistake.

Politics has taken a strangle hold of most things. We know viruses come and go yearly. It is terrible our kids are becoming victims of political agendas for power. It makes no sense to me for the justification. I was approached at the LV game last week because I did not have a mask on by a man that was not practices 6 feet distancing. He told me and a couple we had to wear masks. I simply told him I didn't wear masks. Our country is being taken over by extremist. I laughed as the little dictator walked away. Was he not breaking his own rules by being in our space? Short of a vaccine, we will be lucky to see the end of the season. I know there are those who disagree my stance of defending my personal freedoms and that's alright. Their freedom ends where mine begin but the kids have no say and are the ones suffering the most from these crazy times we each individually allow to control us. I am easy to find if you would like to discuss.

Ladies & Gentleman, this is why the election is so important. Remember to thank all your liberal socialist democrat friends for the memories lost by the outgoing seniors. Dang shame, our country has become so politically corrupt. TRUMP 2020

Good Luck to the Pirates, should be a great game.

Good luck to the Pirates. Every alum should proud. I agree the pregame is special.

Normally I read only, but this consolidation issue needs addressed forcibly. Here are facts for Marion county tax payers. SPHS burnt in 1964 & rebuilt from insurance compensation on the very same piece of property. The SPES burnt & rebuilt on the very same piece of property. All the students,parents & teachers adjusted to the loss realizing progress for each building project was forthcoming. The property that the current football field occupies was donated by the city. The practice field was donated by the city. The baseball field property was donated by Lodge Mfg. Both football field houses were Not financed by the county or school board. The upgrades at the softball & baseball fields were not financed by the tax payers or county school board. Now here are several disturbing facts for the tax payers. Jasper has received 3 new schools since SPHS was built. Now the 4th is in the planning stages. Yes, the new school scheduled will replace the current school that was built years after SPHS. Reportedly JMS is a dump but no one has answered some common core questions! How did it get to be a dump years before it should have? Who is responsible for the neglect of this building? What & where is the possible renovation estimate for the JMS? What known elementary, middle or high school has a 25 acre campus? The Jasper supporters are asking for 25 acres for the proposed Jasper Middle School. The request is also for a new football facility and lord only knows what else at a reported price of 22 Million Dollars. The Marion County School Board once owned 90 acres where the Jasper Elementary now sets. Acreage not used was reportedly given to the City of Jasper. The proposed new JMS 25 acre campus has to be purchased from some land owner. The City of Jasper reportedly will not give the property or any portion of it back to build the reportedly much needed school! An architect has provided a 40+ Million estimate for a consolidated high school. County sales tax is maxed, so that leaves only 1 avenue to get funding for either building project, much higher property taxes! BTW, SPHS, now obviously the oldest school could use some updates but a major portion of the original tile flooring is in remarkably good condition for a 50+ year old! Some complain, the maintenance department is to blame for the poor condition of the JES. Huge and very important questions immediately surfaces, Why, How & Who is really responsible? It is glaringly obvious there is or has been a serious lack of accountability. As an avid SPHS supporter, I see the enrollment increases at South Pittsburg High School. The argument that parents are seeing the advantages of smaller schools is easily recognized. In closing, The importance of rivalries & athletics has been called into question. Rivalries are needed for successful athletic programs and vital to all schools. My class was a part of a very successful run. It was common for students to quit school & take jobs. Players often worked to pass only to stay in school just to play football or basketball. Three classmates became ineligible due to age, two of the three quit school after football season. I had the pleasure of having breakfast with several members of my 1972 class Saturday at the Cracker Barrel. The 100+ 1972 class produced 3 doctors, many successful career professionals. One doctor is known nationally as a top brain trauma physician specializing in blunt trauma deaths and Dean at Emory University. I can proudly say, SPHS has, does and will continue to provide a quality education with a close family type atmosphere for students to be successful and have memories of close friends and often times great experiences & athletic achievements.
