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.

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.

    • You defend your little buddy bsatt like it’s the end of the world just as much. Why don’t you go on to Upperman with him this summer… you know he is your “BEST MAN”. 
    • No sir. Not staying at East. But definitely not going to Elizabethton. 
    • Football and basketball coaches should not be making 100,000 not teaching any classes unless their winning state championship every year lol
