Bradley Central at Blackman

[pattonboysdad]

lol patton, maybe they can choose game time next year! and just think if one of your boys could have been playing maybe they could have knocked heads with tucker lol and just think if blackman had to travel thru the boro to get the inferno "sometimes it takes me an hour to get from one end of the boro to the other during rush hour" lol

 

this IS funny!

tucker WAS a stud for sure...

he and jess actually did play together in east west all star game...but on same side i believe...

the boro is the BIGGEST small town in america...to many cars for sure...

just think had bradley played blackman when they had the 3 headed monster in the backfield, ooohhh what about armstrong or mimms just think if he still played for blackman or even wallace man if blackman still had all those guys on one team! maybe they can start redshirting over their! lol

No excuses made at all, we were beaten by a great player, you should rename your school Mathers High!

Moving on to Rhea Co....whew!

 

well...Mr. Mathers is a "Black Man"...

so we could actually rename the school... "Itavius "Black Man" High School"

[Preacher210]

a question for ya...

if blackman is a one man show...how come the bears could not score but 14 points?

Better to say "one man show on offense"...but even that is not entirely accurate. O-line looked very good; the I-train would be spectacular no matter what, but without a decent line it would be much harder. Only negative thing about having a clear superstar is that other positives (like O-line or defense) can get overshadowed. Defense looked very solid - lowest offensive output of the year for Bradley.

[alt1958]

this thread has takin a serious turn for the worse...

if you go back to the pre-game pages...it was the bears friends and family talking about the great speed of bradley that would match the I train...the great reciever of bradley...the great offense of bradley...and predicting a bradley win...etc...etc...etc...

 

now in the post game pages...it's whine...blame...tired...next year...mercy rule...knocking heads with tucker (who graduated last year...LOL)...etc...etc...etc...

 

my goodness guys...if Blackman had made that 2 hour trip over the mtn...the oline of blackman would have still dominated yall...i train would have still run like a scalded dog...and the score still would have been lopsided...and the weakest part of our team...our defense...(because we lost 10 senior starters last year)...would have still held your high powered offense to 14 points...

 

yall have turned your program around...have good coaches...and good players...now let's be good fans by saying... "we got beat by a better team...congradulations blackman...it's time for us to get back to work"...!

 

OK now, you done raised my ire.

 

I never NEVER EVER made an excuse. I said we got beat by a better team. I said Mathers is the best HS RB I have ever seen. I said before the game the line was impressive and it still is. I said beforehand that Blackman's strength pointed right at Bradley's weakest link this year. I predicted beforehand, to those I know, that Blackman would win that game. How much clearer can I get. I have not said a word about a questionable call or two because those are the breaks of the game sometimes.

 

My statement about the speed is still accurate. And if you go back you will find I said we have players that can match his speed, but I was not sure they would be able to get him on the ground. Quit paraphrasing my statements and comments into something they are not.

 

My comment about the drive was directed at the fans moreso than the team. Maybe that was wasn't clear enough, but that is what it is. Not a word about it causing us to lose in my post. Heck, I know Bradley left at 11:30 and stayed at church in Murfreesboro and ate before the game there.

 

Now as to Tucker Bolton, I did not use that as an excuse, just a statement of a match up I would have loved to have seen. Not going to happen, nor is it an excuse. Tucker Bolton in his own right was a very impressive player and fun to watch. No runner he got his hands on got away. Mathers broke tackles left and right. That is a head to head match that would have been fun to watch, no matter who you are a fan of.

 

No excuses: simply comments from a fan who has not missed an average of 2 Bradley games a year over the last 40 years now, and followed Cleveland's great teams of the 90's through their threepeat as well. Heck I can even claim watching BCHS when Steve Sloan, and Bob Johnson played and won a State Championship by AP voter in 1962.

The Blackman defense did a great job on Bryce's running and shutdown Stovall, Houston and Goldston, something no one has been able to do with much success. Baylor beat us but we still rolled up 570 yards of total offense. Blackman didn't allow much of anything.

 

Interesting stat in the paper this morning is that not only was Mathers' rushing of 336 yards was a record for him and his school (at least that is what I heard over the pa on the way out), it was was record for what Bradley's defense has ever allowed to a single player. The previous record was 254 yards to Gerald Riggs, when we played Red Bank (eventual state champions)in the playoffs back in 2000, and later played for Tennessee.

Don't Coaches in east Tn plan AHEAD and get their teams places more than an hour before hand so their players can rest up after a long bus ride. If not then somebody needs to explain the 6 P's to them for planning!

Got to agree with that! Only quibble: I neither have nor claim superpowers. I just have figured out that the TSSAA bracket machine works in mysterious and inscrutable ways, and almost anything is possible.
