I agree that a lot of SP folks don’t know how to just let things go.  There are those kind of folks in every town, especially where sports programs are at the forefront.  Two wrongs don’t make a right.  All the going back and forth is wearing me out.  I don’t claim to be “in the know”, but even I can see why the game was mutually agreed upon to not be played.  Listen, I’m loyal to the kids regardless of school.   Yes I’m more partial to SP.  I want every kid in the valley to succeed.  I want every kid to have positive memories of their time playing sports.  Just stop and think for a minute.  If this game stayed on the schedule, with all the crap being said by the adults about each school and that has trickled down to several of the kids on both sides, this game would most likely go down in that Hargis man’s book as another time these two schools couldn’t play each other due to all the violent threats made.  Think about it.  Kids like to mouth during a game.  If one little thing is said about all this mess, then it could get ugly fast for both teams.  Both teams have a chance to do big things this 2021 season.  Do you want that to all be taken away because of some little rivalry??  Like you said a lot of behind the scenes turmoil that would likely carry over into that game.  Neither Coach wants that to happen.  You know it would.  This has been done in the past until things cleared up.  Let’s all just chill and let the kids enjoy their football season.  

I can agree that it's the adults that make it worse but I had more than one kid tell me last year they were tired of the "chicken talk" about the game not being played. Those kids had no say so in the playing of the game but had to hear that BS for the past 8 months. Whether or not MC and sp ever play again in any sport is fine with me. Also from what I'm told it wasn't mutually agreed upon. It's a home game for sp and it's their choice to play or not and if they choose not to play that's their option. If not it's up to our administrators to enforce the buyout.

I don’t see what the big deal is here. We broke the rules as they stand and we paid the price. We can still play football and compete for a championship. I feel for the player who has to sit hopefully

I personally think it's a horrible decision. Too much history and tradition.  They'll say we're scared of what's coming in the next few years. We'll say it's because of last year. Either way, thi

Pirates are scared to death and everyone knows it. Is this what happens after the coach meets up with his players and has done an assessment? Does he not have any faith in his team with what all the r

IMO it would be a shame if this game isn’t played. It is without a doubt the best rivalry in 1A/ 2A and more than likely any class in the state.

 

Im sure these kids have grown up wanting to play in this game. IMO it would a disservice to the kids not allowing them to play each other!

Listen folks, unless you were actually in attendance during the meeting between the coaches to discuss playing this game or not, anything you say is simply a rumor. That goes to fans from both schools. Remember, “hearsay, even from those we consider close, doesn’t equate to gospel truth!”

It may still get played. Actually the kids are pretty much friends. It's some of us that make it still so heated. It's not like it used to be though. It used to be pretty bad. We will just wait and see the official announcement on it. Some one jumped the gun trying to cancel it and didn't talk to the people in charge so there may still be a chance.

I'm not really terrified but I think it would've been interesting series again because MC is about to go on a run for quite a while.

I do think it benefits you guys to drop us for the foreseeable future though.

Kinda like when Jasper dropped Whitwell to avoid the Red Tygger scare from 2017 & 2018?

Well reading above Marion is about the only team to watch!  “ They are going on a run”

I’m not a fan of any team in the Valley. Nothing against them my team just lies out West. But let’s be serious about this. If I was a football fan in the area and wanted to watch good games I would  probably go watch some Marion games.

Whiwuhl stinks and Secrotchie Co is only slightly better. South Pitt will destroy everyone on their schedule. Marion would really be the only option.

      2024 Heritage Mountaineers

      I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"

      2024 Mustangs

      Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
