  1. The rings have been ordered and will be given to the players at the football banquet at a date yet to be determined. The players have not seen the rings yet, the design was left solely with the coaches. Also, the rings have either been covered or almost covered through donations or fundraising purchases. (Per the Principal). Also, the associate selling championship gear said they were blown away with the amount sold so far. They have over tripled what theyd normally sell and alot had to be back ordered. So, all is well in Tiger country. Have a very Merry Christmas. I pray all is well with you and yours. And to all my Pirate brethren, good luck on your coaching search, im sure you won't disappoint, and you never know, our rivalry may be renewed again next year. Football 2013 is one week away!
  2. I guess in my older years that im not as healthy as some of you old Tigers. Ive got an arthtitic condition that makes it painful to stand for several hours like that. Too much wear and tear on these knees and ankles over the years. Id sacrifice the pain to do it if i had to, but the point is that i shouldnt have too.
  3. Tpay, Im so obscure to the Gordonsville family that if i gave you my name, you still wouldn't know who i am. Rkw, when we got there at 5:40 only a couple people were on the fence and you weren't one of them. Once i finally got a seat, i never got up. Btw, someone needs to address seat saving at the jungle. Thats two weeks in a row that ive been there an hour and a half before the game and there are as many jugs and stuff in seats than butts. Come on people, im paying my 8 bucks too! Lol
  4. Congrats to Coalfield on a tough win last night, and welcome to Gordonsville. Thankfully because of how you played and where you did it, you wont be overlooked. And thats something that none of the teams remaining can afford to do at this point. Obviously these teams have just enough athletes to pull off the unthinkable. Should be a great one in the jungle come Black Friday. Looks as though the cream has risen to the top and now there's a bigger prize at stake. Only one thing is for sure; Huntingdon, Nashville Christian, Coalfield, or Gordonsville will be 2012 State Champs and everyone else will be lost in history. Let's get ready to rumble!
  5. I am not much of an apologetic, unless its religious, so here's my summation ; nic suiting up was huge tonight and next week, if we play like we did tonight, we lose. The coaches have to make sure our players arent caught with their pants down, like they were tonight. Everyone knows that our D is designed to stop the run, but tonight against Eville we were trying to do the old bend but dont break on the pass and continue to load up on the run. Eagleville had their chances tonight and i kept waiting on the D to adjust and it never seemed to til the 4th and after Nic was involved. Its not going to get easier, we've got to be able to adjust to the oppositions game plan faster or its gonna cost us. Obviously in the playoffs, teams arent just lining up with what got them there, theyre trying to adjust and gain an advantage by using unorthodox or element of surprise. (the eagles were successful tonight on a halfback pass, a reverse, a couple screens to keep us off balanced, and even blocked a punt; which im sure they saw on film) Where is Gordonsville showing anything but the same stuff they run all year? Please, when we're getting our regular offense stuffed, use a little creativity and it will pay dividends.And please, for the love of pete, stop with the two return men on punts, WE'RE GONNA GET BURNED by a well prepared team. Eagleville my hats off to you. Good, hard fought game. And Tigers, learn valuable lessons from this game and never give up. Go Tigers!
  6. 28 to 13 with 2 to go, and did i mention coalfield won?
  7. 21 to 13 gville with 5 to go, AND Coalfield won
  8. Tigers are playing pretty even right now (excluding penalties) but id have to admit we're getting out coached. You have to be READY for trick plays when a team has nothing to lose.
  9. No. I was after your time; from 86 to 90, and have lived in another town since the early 90's, but ive always continued to support the Tigers.
  10. I don't think there are many on here. Tpay, you get that boy healed up. We're going to need him.
  11. So, in football, each of these teams now have 6 non district games to fill?
  12. So, in football, does Goodpasture only play in 9AA, Region 4, or a mixture of both 9AA and Region 4? Im a little confused with schools that play in different regions or districts depending on their sport.
  13. Dang, bro. I'm glad we won't still have FCS to go along with Goodpasture or you'd blow a gasket.
