Underdogs We May Be...

[Wordfromyourmutha]

Well, up to this point I've sat back and simply read what everyone is posting. Such as: Gallatin is gonna come to our field and tear us a new one, Hunters Lane is gonna run all over us, and NOW Ravenwood is faster, better coached, tricky...blah, blah, blah....Oh, and did I mention that we've been accused of cheating by some underinformed lady who not only can't spell but apparently can't read a newspaper either?

 

The sheer volume of negative comments made about Hendersonville is almost laughable. Considering our current record and Region Champion status, I feel that there are many folks out there having a heaping plate full of crow for breakfast, lunch, and dare I say, dinner.

 

Our team has worked with an almost inflexible sense of purpose. They have showed up every gameday with that goal in mind...and have accomplished it nine out of ten times. Did I mention that they have done so with grace, discipline, and humility...something that can't be said about most teams we've played.

 

So, go ahead and continue to call us underdogs, we don't mind. We rest our heads at night with the knowledge that we earned every ounce of respect that everyone is now begrudgingly giving.

 

COMMANDO PRIDE!!

Though you can't tell from your user name, this is actually a pretty intelligent post.

 

My only question is though, if you don't mind that you guys are still the underdogs, why would you make this post?

Thank you for the backhanded compliment...I think...ha, ha..! But seriously, as a parent who has been to every game, listened to all the talk, and seen all the hard work, I felt it was time to give my son and his team the praise they have earned.

 

By the way my username is merely a joke....you know the old school saying "Word to your mother"?

I understand. Sometimes ya just gotta let the kids know that somebody cares.

 

Yeah, I know the saying. I'm glad you're using it ironically, though.

I'm sorta liking this underdog roll. All our guys do week in and week out is WIN. In the end that's what matters.

 

I do however agree with the cheating comments. These players have been through alot this year and for someone to come on Coach T and suggest these kids be penalized more is rediculous. Even more so because it came from a Gallatin suppoerter that that was basically crying because they got beat.

 

Take care of the business ON the field Commandos as you have been. Keep bringing it every play, one week at a time.
