goosevol Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I agree. I don't think the kid should be taken out and flogged, but it was unnecessary and I think it deserved a flag. I just hope Edmonds is okay for Kingston. He's a tough kid and is going to be a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deion24 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I hope the kid is ok and wish him a bright future...but you cant just throw a flag and say that was too rough! It was a legal tackle...no horse coller, no face mask, etc. It was just a big strong kid grabbing a much smaller kid and throwing him backwards. Again, I hope he is ok and wish him and his team the best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENEDEVILARMY Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 It was fun to see CAK Coach Rusty Bradley and Pop scouting Alcoa & Kingston. I guess that makes them tornado chasers. The best way to study an F5 is as close as you can get to the down draft without getting hurled! now that's funny I don't care who you are.

So all this time i have been teaching my son to play hard and give 100% he is suppose to take it easy because some kid is 130 pounds. The kid had momentum and my son grabbed him and done what he had been taught get him to the ground at whatever cost at no point in time was he looking to hurt the kid. No if the kid had landed on his feet and kept running and scored nothing would have been said except that the freshman should have been on sports center. With that being said he is my son and i am very proud of him and expect him to do give all he has for his football team. Also what is classless is that a parent came over to our sideline and was yelling and curssing at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you guys should just get stronger or go play flag football or Soccer wait thats rough to. I guess #55 #74 #3 and #10 are also to rough because the play with high intensity and bring the wood.

goosevol Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 He is a heck of a player, and I don't think he's a dirty player. I do think there should have been a flag because once he had his feet off the ground he could have just taken him down instead of flipping him over head first. But that's just my opinion. I also think it's classless that someone from Kingston came over and cursed at him. That's the person that needs to be flogged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flag was against the Kingston Coach for comments made to the Ref on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Maybe the parent should have been on his own sideline yelling at his coach or his son's linemen for leaving a beast like #57 unblocked. I would never, ever want to see a young man injured, but don't know how you could fault #57 for physical play. It is football, players are taught (as they should be) to try to break the will of the opponent by being more physical than they are. He was just doing his job.
