Band parents? We picking in the band parents now? LOL. BTW, for those of your who don’t know me, I wasn’t just a football player In high school. I was also a percussionist in the marching band. So nobody understands both sides of the conversation more than I do. And no, I didn’t ride the bench. But that was in the late 80’s. Like, back when there was no internet. You know….. the DARK AGES.

I did not play in the HS band but sure do appreciate them being at the games.     Maybe every band does not have so many members like DB's does (DB's band has their own zip code BTW..... just saying....) but they still add a lot by playing in the stands as the game progresses.    I've been to a few games where the band did not travel and the atmosphere was not as good.

Band parents are very upset when thousands of dollars are taken out of their program because a couple of Daniel Boone coaches had tickets to the TN football game...

enough already.  your administration messed up.  no one else.  Be mad at elizabethton.

How? That's the stupidest thing ever. BOONE SHOULD HAVE PLAYED WEST THE NEXT DAY LIKE THEIR CONTRACT SAID. ELIZABETHTON CONTRACT WITH BOONE SAYS WE PLAY TOMORROW IF THE GAME GET RAINED OUT TONIGHT. SO EXACTLY HOW DID BETSY MESS UP?  NO WONDER YOU LOSE 30-0 TO A TEAM BETSY WHIPPED.

Im not really sure what I just read through, but ill say this. 

 

Region games take precedent, so it makes sense for MO West and Boone to be rescheduled first. Either side not wanting to play on the weekend sucks, but it is what it is. Its hard to cancel plans youve had all week late on a Friday night, then try to find travel accommodations to get back down to Morristown.

 

I agree with the sentiment that Betsy admin screwed the Betsy fans for having so few home games. Maybe they have a hard time finding games, but maybe they should reach out to schools outside the area. Im sure Knox West, Maryville, Alcoa, Fulton (maybe?) ya know other schools with scheduling issues could try to schedule each other then maybe they could find more games. Also I get a smaller school may want to dictate they get to play at home, who wouldnt, instead of traveling an hour to go get beat by 70, and DB is gonna DB theyre not giving up their home games. However, I find it hard to believe schools like West, Maryville, Alcoa wouldnt sign home and home games.

 

Lastly at the end of the day mother nature won, thats something that neither you or I can control, its frustrating, but thats just how life goes sometimes. If the worst thing you have to worry about is a cancelled high school football game, then youre doing alright.

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • 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"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • 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!
