I've been away for the holidays so I couldn't comment until now. Congrats Henry County on a well played game. I must admit, when I was in Nashville and I read the Saturday morning paper ... I cringed when I saw the score. Then, when I read the accounts of the game ... I felt a tab bit ill. One tremendous play by a Henry County player and one unconcievable loss for Melrose. I can imagine a lot of ways to lose a football game ... but to have a man run through the line and take the ball away from the QB and then run 40 odd yards and score the winning TD with about 2 minutes left in a hard faught defensive battle .... well ... that's got to sting. Tramarcus Toney ... hold your head up young man, you played a whale of a game ... don't let depression set in. It's a team game young man ... a TEAM game.

 

I must admit ... when I heard that the MLB and the DE for Melrose were hurt the game before ... I thought it severely hurt their chances ... and here they go with an opportunity to win the game. I'm impressed.

 

That was a good win HC ... a very good win.

 

 

You are right about your QB. The game is not close without him. He played well and the his last play was probably not all his fault. The DE played very well but I'm sure you missed the LB, but injuries are part of the game. It was an exciting game.

I just got online a few minutes ago to read the Commercial Appeal article about the game and read some comments from some disgruntled Melrose fans. They were on there whining about the officials. First of all, I would assume the officials were from a neutral site ( at least that's what they do in Mississippi). Secondly, while you had substantially more penalties, you were also the recipient of a touchdown after the worst call in the history of the game. The "lateral" call was not a good call on the flare pass to Allen, but the Melrose player that was lying on the ground with the recovered "fumble", should not have been allowed to get up and score. He was down with the ball. You Melrose fans know your football and you know better than that. You put a lot of players in the NFL, but the guy who recovered the so-called "fumble" is not in the NFL yet, so he can't advance the ball. Stop whining because it should be Henry County doing whining. That terrible call was worse than all of your penalties combined.

 

 

Can someone please point me in the direction of this article?

    • It is what it is. Sorry DFL.
    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
