What is so "skilled" about falling down? Anybody can do it, though not as much as Shelton, but anyone could do it whenever they want to. And yes, this is a rivalry...but of course I see and understand why you fall down on the floor everytime...but really. Does it have to be everytime? Why risk injuring yourself temporarily and let your team down by doing so. But I guess everybody has their faults about doing certain things...even if the risk is injuring yourself your senior year and maybe sitting out the rest of the season.

Well, I have a couple things to say.

1. Yeah, Harppeth plays a little dirty at times, but who doesn't? You do it to number 13. I'd say your name, but I won't. We see those bows you throw from the stands.

2. Montgomery Central would be nothing without Kelly Shelton. So Harpeth can down them all they want, but, remember you can't stop her with words

I DO NOT understand why players fall down on the floor so much! I hate to see players flopping to get a foul called. In fact, I have heard officials talk about how they despise players who flop, and have noticed refs not calling as much of that stuff. Guess they are wising up. I'm not as concerned about a player getting injured as I am that player has taking herself out of rebounding or the play itself. Sometimes you do get knocked down and get a legitimate foul called, and then on the other side, there are plenty of players (see them a lot) who are trying to get something for nothing. Stay off the floor on flops and the player will find she is even better than she thought...however, for some players, maybe they flop to APPEAR to be better than they are! ;)

Like I said what is so skillful about falling down? And yes...what you do does get noticed. It gets noticed as stupid and uncalled for.

 

Birdie- you made a good comment about the officials "despising" the players who fall down consistently and purposely. Guess they're just sick of it too...

    • Easier said than done. The man who ran for 250+ yards and 3TDs is gonna be back….and a lot bigger.
    • plus it removes the pressure around winning.
    • You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.  
    • He was pretty darn good for a freshman, but he will have a hard time seeing the field at Oakland for a good while, I’m afraid.
    • Dang I feel bad for the kid. I’m sure he loves his dad and wants to do anything for his dad but I don’t think he realizes his dad isn’t doing the best for his football career if he keeps jumping schools.
