I am glad that I am more blessed to allow myself to be "sad" over "my team" having to play "that" team.

It's called being dedicated fans no matter how good their team is. It's called parents, family, and classmates cheering for their loved ones no matter the score. I suppose if Elizabethon has to travel in 2nd/3rd round of playoffs, that you won't travel to see your team get smoked?

Make out a complete list of what is wrong with WG. Don't mind the fact that they are teenage boys...just go ahead and make that list.

Keep in mind...this is a HIGH SCHOOL team.

I would like to be the first to commend you on your class and sportsmanship. Good luck to your team on their way to State!

I agree also. It would be such a shame for Elizabethon to have to play those schools who have no chance at ever competing with them. Also, not having anywhere to sit at these no-good-for-nothing small schools would be an absolute travesty. CD, WG, and Claiborne should feel honored to be able to be on the same field with Elizabethon.

And it should be even worse, if it weren't for the officials allowing that last TD! He was clearly out of bounds. Even people sitting 50 yards away could see that.

Wow, what a statement. I am so glad we don't have a meth problem in our county.

Of course

You are a class act!

Actually, probably at a friends house, at a movie, or maybe at the Greeneville game watching some classy fans be escorted away by police for picking on GIRLS!

Anytime something negative thrown their way, the 101 excuses book gets taken off the shelf.

Must not be actual Greeneville fans, they always show class to their opponents. Must be some people posing as Devil fans.

Typical response after a reasonable reply about someone calling out a coach. Someone who knows NOTHING about coaching high school football. As far as my team, they are doing fine...thanks for asking.

I love how bleacher coaches know more than the ACTUAL coaches who work hard ALL year long to prepare their teams. Did Ballard coach a horrible game last year versus Fulton?

I agree with you. However, reading Greeneville fans posts I would have never imagined it was even this close. I thought only the schools twice Greenevilles size could have an advantage in a series. I mean all these teams "dropping" Greeneville from their schedule and all.

Interesting!

Hope they saved enough to replace that ball they lost in the woods.

No, but Greeneville has been known to have kickers with a pretty good foot. I don't think they were running score up by going for 2...they were doing just fine scoring 8 first half touchdowns.

No double standard and also no chance WG would ever lose a ball at Greeneville...1-it would mean WG scored, 2-kicker has good accuracy but not THAT much power. Listen, like I said before WG got hammered and if they don't like it they need to learn how to stop a team from scoring. No crying here, just can't believe Greeneville was so concerned over $70.

You further proved my point, thanks!

1-I never called Ballard classless, he is a great coach. I called him childish (and only when he plays against Case...seems he stoops down to his level). 2-My point is that it seems like a sorry excuse to go for 2...they have a $50,000 rug on their field... Worried about $70 balls (although it would have been about 8 of them). 3-Greeneville has an unbelievable football program and I have never complained about them running up the score. The 2 and 3's deserve to go out and score too. WG couldn't stop the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd's and that is their fault. 4-I have also never defended coach Case's actions. What he told the players and coaches to do was absolutely wrong and unsportsmanlike!

True, but Cody played much tougher opponents. Congrats to Finchum though, having an astounding season.

That entire decision is on the head coach! The players are taught to do as the coach says. They should have never been told to do such a classless act, but they were obeying their coach. Their were 2 brave ones who disobeyed, along with ALL assistant coaches, and went out to shake hands.
