CaptainGuru Posted September 15, 2023 Report Share Posted September 15, 2023 Region games have to be played. Its understandable that it would be played before a meaningless game is made up from last week. I am Captain Guru and I approve this message. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDaddyDave Posted September 15, 2023 Report Share Posted September 15, 2023 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KPTwrestlingfan Posted September 15, 2023 Report Share Posted September 15, 2023 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tackleberry Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Maybe Elizabethton should look into playing someone inside Carter County? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll never happen. There's not a team in CC that would want to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
