I agree on the poor coaching, but the entire scene reflects WAY more than that...

To answer one of your questions, why shouldn’t they play? Agree or not, they made the cut just like everyone else. They should play and play to win.

I struggled with writing this post since the Train played Wheatley last year in the playoffs. This year’s game setting was very similar to last year. The opponent, Wheatley, with good sized kids and athletic ability made a horrible showing. Not just on the field, but in the sidelines, in the stands, everywhere you looked in their direction. The band. More like the size of a garage band than a school band (helluva loud drummer and cymbal player though). I’d be stretching the truth to say there were a dozen kids in their band. Even less were the number of cheerleaders. No drill team, twirlers, flag corps, etc. to be seen. Parents/Fans probably were fewer than 2 dozen. And their coaches - good lord. They should be ashamed to take their paycheck. They should be ashamed for the product they’re turning out. They should be put in jail for both stealing and child neglect. It was sickening. I felt bad for those athletes and the other kids (band, cheerleaders, etc) that it actually took some of the fun out of the game for me personally. This topic could actually spawn hundreds of pages, but I’ll leave it at this... Kids, parents, coaches, community, be thankful for what you have. I know we all like to come on here and piss and moan (me included) about play calling or down years or so many other real issues that need addressed. But I thank God my kids never had to experience the downright negligence that the Wheatley school and community has dealt out to those kids. It’s about as disgusting thing as I have seen. I literally prayed for those boys on my way home last night.

I’d definitely take him as a defensive coach.

🤔 Hmmmm.

Yep, there’s always 2-8! 😬

So, you’re a drinking man, are you?

It was actually a vicious head slap to the back of the head. Hardest hit produced by Wheatley all night! Lol. 👋

Good job Double H.

Hell, I do! Starting off with a snarky, “Trust me...” already says you’re waiting in line for a block of government cheese tomorrow, but too ashamed to admit it... but if you have any left over... Not that I really need it...

Or ZZ TOP to finish what Physical Atmosphere started. Just let me know...if you wanna go...

Nowhere close. Wheatley’s coaches should be embarrassed anywhere they could be recognized.

Carthage vs. Athens, 11/15 (Winner to face the Train)

Way to go boys!

Sometimes a team plays to the level (up or down) of their competition. May not be the case, just some perspective.

Why is Bickham leaving?

I figured the 2 seed would be home and the 3 seed would be visitor. Shows you what I know! Lol.

Thank you sir.

Hello Raidergirl? What side?

Is Lumberton the “Home” team?

“They will never be WOS.“ They could be. Wouldn’t be easy, wouldn’t be quick, but I refuse to place limits on anything because of perception.

See y’all at Stallworth for The Train vs. Wheatley!

I’ll take Carthage and spot you 11.

Let’s go Bears. Hope y’all show Channelview how good your QB can really be. Good luck and hopes for a safe game!

The 3 team with a bye is what I support. Thanks for your insight.
