I'm tired of hearing about the 1 and done trend for db football... Given they have lost 2 straight opening round playoff games but that makes for a grand total of 3 of 1st round losses since 97... in fact they've only lost in the 2nd round once since that date, they have lost in the quarter finals 3 times, and they have made it to the semi-finals 3 times so if you are counting thats 7 out of the last 10 seasons that they made it past the first round... in comparison everyone is talking about William Blount but in the last 10 seasons they have made it to the 2nd round only 3 times, they have been knocked out in the first round 5 times, and they did not make 2 of the playoffs...

Man I hate those pesky State Quarter Final losses dont you? I mean dang whats wrong with a team that can't beat another one of the top 8 5A teams in the state?

I played football for Dobyns-Bennett and we never won a state championship... Sure I was disappointed when my senior season came to an end... but it was not because I had never won a state championship... it was because I would never again get to put on that maroon and grey and go out and compete friday nights at J. Fred... The memories from those seasons are some of the best I have... and I would not have rather played for any other school in the state... not maryville, not oak ridge, and not riverdale... I wouldnt have rather played for any other coach either...No where in the state is there a high school program with as much tradition... It was never about winning for winnings sake... it was winning to carry on the winning tradition that has led to Dobyns-Bennett having the most all time wins in the state... So do I wish DB would win a state championship? Yes Will I still concider them the best team in the state year in and year out if they dont? I don't think I even have to answer that one... ROLL TRIBE ROLL

what does any of this have to do with anything?

Dude, that was over a week ago... get over it...

A once defeated team leading a bunch of undefeated teams in the poll? that makes a lot of sense...

I just wish I woulda remembered a coat when I came back for this game... cause its gonna be cold

Maybe... or maybe maryville will find out what its really like to play a traditional 5a power-house...

If the press box falls or anything like that I'm gonna stop coming to games cause the only other game I've made it up to this year I got cut by falling glass...

All of yall are some clowns for even having this conversation...

Look what you started reno... I shoulda known you woulda gotten all the crazies riled up...

Congratulations for the top 500 posts that probably had the least to do with anything... haha thats ok though... you coulda gotten told to stay clear of this website like a certain friend of mine did a couple years ago...

sorry g-georgia... thats not possible... but you get an A for effort

alright lets not start saying db is going to the state championship just yet... lets take that district championship first... then lets take it one playoff game at a time... we have been let down too many times in the past to be saying that this early in the season...

Ok I was thinking you might have meant to say biggest deep threat in years or something along those lines... and I was gonna have to disagree with you...

you didnt answer my question though

Alright guys lets not let this become another 34 page thread of other people coming on the thread and talking trash about db... this thread is about DB and the smoky bears... lets try to keep it to that

How about you tell me on october 20th...

DB's already beat one of the two...

Reno has to listen to me though, cause if it wasnt for me he probably wouldnt be alive today... LOOOOOOOK OOOOOOUUUUUUUUUTTT...

You should be reno... you should be And besides... posting at 9:17 am? Dont you have something you are suppose to be doing around that time?

I dont know about hoople but im predicting big reno to get a big swirlie once i get back to kingsport...

I heard open date got a lot of transfers from bye high school... dont know if thats true or not though

I dont know... this is the best team open date has had in years... if db fans keep overlooking open date then they will be in for a surprise friday night... mark my words
