Sportsmanship typically is regarded as a component of morality in sport, composed of three related and perhaps overlapping concepts: fair play, sportsmanship and character.[6] Fair play refers to all participants having an equitable chance to pursue victory[7] and acting toward others in an honest, straightforward, and a firm and dignified manner even when others do not play fairly. It includes respect for others including team members, opponents, and officials.[8] Character refers to dispositions, values and habits that determine the way that person normally responds to desires, fears, challenges, opportunities, failures and successes and is typically seen in polite behaviors toward others such as helping an opponent up or shaking hands after a match. An individual is believed to have a “good character†when those dispositions and habits reflect core ethical values. An example of poor sportsmanship is exemplified in a team's calling timeouts to run up the score on an opponent when the former team already has a sizable lead.

 

 

Why don't we just give everyone a trophy just for participatiing. That way there are no winners or losers. If you strive for excellance, you will achieve that. If you strive for mediocraty, you will achieve that also.

I think both teams will play their hearts out and leave it all on the field. I also believe the players and coaches will conduct themselves appropriately.   But I will go ahead and say it now. Thi

Thanks for the concern, but....Don't feel sorry for the Indians. I get sick of hearing how bad this is gonna be! Signal keeps saying "How jealous everyone is of their team".... Why would anyone be jea

I think you should go into every game with the intentions of hanging as many points on a team as possible. It is not water polo it is football and the other team has to stop you that is the mentality

Just so we're square with all the Sequatchie people. So far the people talking about putting 100 on the board haven't been from SM. I think most people will tell you we enjoy playing you guys every year. I think your stadium is the best we will get to play at this year and I'm looking forward to coming down.

 

As for all this other stuff. Don't know who cried to the TSSAA and don't really care. But I do care that they drug their feet and I think the reason is obvious. I also have a problem that your principle who is on the Board of Control admitted he knew about this on Sep 22nd. IMO he should have talked to our AD at the meeting and not doing so leaves a bad taste in the eagles mouths.

 

Before anyone tries to defend him by saying he didn't know, here it is in his own words. "There are rumors out there that Sequatchie County turned them in. We did not," Layne said. "The first I heard about it was a comment from [TSSAA executive director] Bernard Childress at the administrators' meeting on Sept. 22." He clearly knew and Childress was clearly talking about it with others and not our AD.

 

Whats also clear is the game won't be won or lost on this thread and there will plenty of non-SM people on here running their mouths about what SM is going to do. Plus I think there will be plenty of SM people on here that are not happy with your principle for not speaking up.

Why should he speak up, it's not his mess. And maybe he couldn't have. Everyone and I mean everyone knew this was going to happen, sooner or later. Childress is the one that should have been doing the talking. I think you need to look internally for the so called whistle blower.

 

Now, after 50 different SM vs the world threads and 1,435,687 posts,lets move on. This thread is about the game in 11 days not anything else.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that.

      The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.

      I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
