Pardon me....but maybe some people out there find it funny (just like you seem to find the eurosport rankings so funny) that a team was beaten 6-0 in the state tournament. It's not that big of a deal. They are just that...rankings....opinions. Soddy was fortunate enough to play in a state tournament and be in the Elite Eight. Be satisfied with your accomplishments.

gotta love paigey...i know we sure missed her bein around this year

she fell on it wrong after getting taken down. nothing dirty. just bad luck.

no just for the record brittney didn't open her mouth even after the ref had called that foul. the ball was at her feet and the defender was going for the back tackle and tripped. unfortunate but it calls like this happen more often than not in bigger games like this.

Teaching class on the field wasn't the topic of discussion. The topic was actually when a red card should be thrown and when a yellow was applicable. The reason this topic is being discussed is because it is a serious decison for the ref to make that obviously furthur impacts not only the game at hand but future games esp. with the new two game suspension rule coming into effect this year. I honestly feel the red card should be used more to protect players from dangerous play or any sort of thing that would endanger them on the field. In many cases if it were up to me I would use the yellow for profanity unless it was excessive. Instead of putting all situations under on net solution in the end it's a personal call the ref makes. Even the classiest of players fall into inappropriate behavior sometimes...but more oftentimes than not that happens not because of a lack of class but because it is a two way street. It's easy to get stunk into what the opponent is doing and to resort to those tactics. Doesn't make it any less wrong or any more right. Just the facts. But yes we should strive to stay perfect and preserve our class on the field. Unfortunately no player is perfect.

riverdale i do believe

Well the score at halftime of the siegel blackman game was 1-0. The cavs did play a heck of a game and i really would not classify the ball being in the rhs offensive zone 70% of the time. They tore up the middle third from my viewpoint but to each his own. Honestly doesn't matter too much as long as they advance i just figured they would have found a way to finish those "wide open net misses" and "3 headers over the crossbar" and that's all i was commenting on.

anybody else suprised by the closeness of the riverdale cookeville game?

riverdale vs. siegel wednesday at siegel. always a big district match up....any thoughts?

the riverdale siegel game is wednesday at siegel...can't say i'm not excited

haha that's exactly how i feel reading over that post...but technically we did go home early...a whole 24 hours early to be exact

thanks for that link....but rest assured i have the eurosportscoreboard on bookmark. no that doesn't sound TOO familiar Brentwood Academy and Ooltewah both seem to have winning records...just to name a couple. I'm sure you were happy to hear about the Blackman Riverdale game...congrats on that 2-1 win for Riverdale. Blackman really seemed to contain them in that game huh? have a good one.

How many out of those that you just named did they win?

is soccer dangerous? in a word.....yes

you do recall correctly...but that was actually the record as of 9/12. At one point we were even 1-4-1....the point isn't about the records then and it wasn't really about it now. The point was to find out if i was correct not really put anyone in their place but i guess you've sure put me in mine /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

so what does that put cookeville's record to...4-8-1?

HAHA...i stopped noticing the misspellings a long time ago.

i don't really see what kind of fan can come on the boards with the whole "woulda coulda shoulda" routine. Ooltewah got beat friday night came out played well against BA and didn't? what can you say about that? what can any team say about their losses. obviously there's things to do better when you lose but that doesn't mean you SHOULD have won the game. if you should have won you WOULD have. OHS is a good team no one discredits that...but i don't understand how you can say they SHOULD or COULD have done anything and your very very right that is why they play the game out and come october the game against siegel doesn't count for much. if they win the ones that count it's all good.

Blackman seemed to be about the same as they have been in previous years past...siegel has had very similar scores from previous years...3-0 and 1-0 in '05 i do believe...they always play "competitively" never let a team embarass them. Vice has always done a good job in my opinion. The RHS Blackman game should be a good one. Riverdale will have to play tight. Blackman could pull an upset.

does canesoverhere know anything about soccer or the high school soccer being played in tennessee? i'm just wondering..get back to me on that one

i can't really see them going far and above their recent performance in the past few years unless they're gaining some new talent.

Not that everyone is a siegel booster at all but no one is going to sit here and argue what coulda shoulda happened in riverdale's games. Why they shouldn't have been down and why they were. Everyone recognizes riverdale's talent they have to prove they can win games against bigger competition which is all the other posters are saying. No one is trying to be a warrior hater...always great to have us and rhs in the state tourney and your right that IS why we play the games we'll see what happens huh?

if we re speaking about a freshman....all i can say is your going to have to learn how high school ball plays out....although our team was forced to play with a bunch of sophomores and freshman my whole career and we were all put in the position to play alot and gain alot of experience as underclassmen that is very rare...there is not only the huge factor of age seeing as a freshman is quite a bit smaller and less experienced than the upperclassmen but the issue of team chemistry and leadership comes up especially with a keeper. i don't know who you were referring to or if you were referring to anyone but you might want to let your player whoever your speaking of prove herself at some kind of level with her team before you talk of her replacing a starter.

haha i'm sure sydney will step in and fill meredith's place nicely although i do know it will feel strange to not have meredith in there just because she has been there our whole career....we can all trust syd in goal 100% and i don't really think we could ask for anyone better to step in after meredith.
