I believe, for an added attraction, that at halftime of the game there should be an alumni wrestling match pitting Steve Bledsoe and Todd Upton versus Mike Casteel and Brett Coulter.  Best two out of three falls, with the winning team getting to shave the losing teams heads.  I think if word of this event got out, the gate would increase at least two-fold.

You could hold the wrestling match on Saturday night and fill the stands again -even with WB playing across town. I'd pay to see it.

It sounds to me that if anyone dislikes a team to just go choke their best player and he is gone and then you can say good bye to them for the rest of that game and the next. Its not right and not right at all. I mean would it be right for Alcoa to stick their 2nd team in start choking Mary's first team just to get them all kicked out. Now what would you think about that?

I think we've got to stop making excuses. It comes with the territory. When you're the top dog everyone is trying to knock you off the porch. It's a tough lesson to learn and one he should have known by now. It wasn't the first time he's been the victim of a cheap shot and it won't be the last. He knows how to retaliate within the rules and confines of the game. It must have been the heat and/or playing at 12:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning.

I hope Warren gets to play Friday. It would be nice to see the 2005 Maryville/Alcoa game played without an asterisk. However, a one game suspension for their top player might be the best thing that could happen to the AHS squad. The criticism of Warren is unwarranted. I'm told he is an outstanding young man, and he has to be dealing with a great deal of pressure. I would say walk a few miles in his shoes before you criticize, but that would be too easy.

Although I didn't see the game Friday, it sounds like Alcoa is Lo Lo Loaded. Shiverdecker gives them a whole new dimension and will make them even harder to stop. They are really going to put the Gaylor/Pinkerton Mojo to the test. How did Lindsey do? I've not read a lot about him in the previous posts.

BW is not an idiot and that is uncalled for!  He may have been provoked and probley was.

 

Having been a few moons back around Fort Campbell/Hoptown I can tell you it can be a rough place to grow up around. 

BUT if a player is ejected from a game it will most likely be result in a suspension, anything less is an injustice to the great game.

 

I am sorry for Warren; I know he wanted to beat Maryville very badly.
