We've come full circle on where the Tri-Cities start and "Knoxville area" ends. I always said the vortex was between Mo-Town and Greeneville. Now the Knoxville media is pushing on up I-81. I agree they do. The Rivalry Thursday goes don’t seem to like them tho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Greene county is in NET,and I don't care how they try to move it around. I know that NET poll I seen,Cherokee was in the top 10 and Greeneville was not.If Cherokee starts winning state titles,Hawkins county will probably be kicked out of NET as well.Some new maps show it two ways Edited August 23, 2018 by BatmanDevil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noonesfool Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) Seems like DB has always had trouble with a playoff system regardless of the Decade. Thank goodness for unofficial mythical titles. Doug Fritz, of the JC press is a tremendous Betsy homer. The sports page looks like it should be called the Elizabethton Press. I believe Fritz has pushed the Devils west. I would be more upset If I was a current Topper in a city of 70,000 (newspaper potential sales) always having less or equal print than a neighboring town of 15,000.

I know that NET poll I seen,Cherokee was in the top 10 and Greeneville was not.If Cherokee starts winning state titles,Hawkins county will probably be kicked out of NET as well.Some new maps show it two ways Knoxville media adopted Greeneville when they started winning state championships, so they could say "Knoxville area teams win 3A, 4A, 5A, and 6A state championships." In contrast, Johnson City Press and their sport editor (who has the least amount of football knowledge of any sports writer i have ever seen) decided that Greeneville wasn't considered in Northeast Tennessee, i guess because it made Science Hill, DB and Elizabethton look bad if they couldn't get to Cookeville and Greeneville was winning gold balls. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
