Ok Shutdown, who you got?

KM or the Mighty Lions
It should be a good one no doubt

Were gonna do our best to introduce that freshman to Williams, Hunt and Company....Then again that kid can flat play

Shelby by 6
A tough week 1 matchup for both teams. Great matchups all over the field. Shelby has a good defensive line but KM counters with a good o-line. Strength on strength. A lot of talent all over the field for both teams. Shelby had the extra scrimmage so once we get through the first qtr that will balance out. I have Kings Mountain pulling it out on the road.

Gaston County logic: Cancel a 6pm high school jamboree at 4p (92 degrees) with 15y-18y olds because temps are above 88 degrees. Gaston County middle school football teams (11y-13y) played today at 4pm when temperatures are 98 degrees. I guess it makes perfect sense to someone on that side 🤦
Makes absolutely no sense

The reason scrimmage was called off in Gaston last Fri. Is what's called wet bulb humidity.
The norm is 88 and below and it was 94 at SC fri...
Those are state rules not by school..
Only reason I know this is I was informed last week cause alot of practice for other sports as well as football were called off.
I never knew this... Interesting

Perhaps we should have stated it as high school football’s most talented county in NC.
Of course the larger cities counties such as Mecklenberg and Wake produce more D1 recruits, but that is a function of total population and number of schools.
On a per capita basis, with 4 medium size high schools, Cleveland County may match them.
But that is not the metric we choose.
Our metric is rings, not D1 college recruits. Championships. Proven performances over a significant time by the high school programs in that county.
That means the most to most of the participants.

In developing high school football talent to a championship level within a team concept, it includes not only players, but coaches, facilities, community support and tradition.

If you are to criticize us as “ ludicrous “, please name for us, other than Cleveland County, any NC county that has produced from its high schools, 26 State Championships, additional multiple (10) Championship Game appearances, and consistent Top 10 rankings and deep playoff runs for over the last 6 decades.

Do the homework, DeBoar.
We have. And you will not find one.

You jerry rigged your way into the bug league, being a weight bully for over 2 decades. Take away those easy titles and ya'll are riding on the back of Crest. I've obliterated your case with 3 sentences.

This thread exists because CRESTRULZ started it. That’s it.

You better show me the respek I deserve you Doc Brown looking Honkie!

I don’tknow who smokes better weed, Bob, You or the 4 starters that had a stern tongue lashing and had to sit out of practice.

Lastly the playoff run we made and Shelby made were two different ones. You played one team that wasn’t a cream puff. The team you win your piddly ring of of literally had ghosts plying defense. It was a JOKE


beat East Lincoln. Then South Point and Hickory on the road and then holla.

Crest is the STANDARD PAL. You’re living in a new world. You just haven’t figured it out yet

Think about it Potsie.

Another clarification is needed before the season starts.
Your absurd continued attempts to diminish Shelby’s victory in the State Championship game last December is so pathetic.
In your effort to highlight the Crest win later in that day, you give the most ridiculous reasons for the Shelby victory.
Any fair minded football fan could only marvel at the precision offensive display by our QB and his receivers, coupled with a stubborn offensive line and a remarkable freshman running back.
Equally precise was the Kinston offense, focusing on the NC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR Copper, with an outstanding QB themselves and other multi talented skill players.
Both offenses were unstoppable in the first half, and many feel the massive DE hit on the Kinston QB just before the half was the main reason their offense slowed in the second half.
Kinston had State commit Copper and a D1 Marshall commit IN THEIR DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD.
Ghost defense? Far from it.
Did Wilson Hunt have that?

Why not acknowledge a 3 year starting QB and his many receivers on the exact same page creating openings against their opponent that were indefensible. Kinston did the same to us in the first half.
Go back and watch the replay.
No ghost. Precision football.
Shelby was once again Champinship worthy and it crawls your butt to admit it, and we took attention away from your first title in 10 years.
So you make stuff up.
You are such a child.

5A Champion Crest with 50% more students defeated 3A Champion Shelby last season by only 7 points, in the 4th quarter, on a Shelby mistake.

Re-write that one with ghosts, clownrulz.

OK. But you said "most talented". That has nothing to do with rings, cheating or anything else CC has become so good at. Very talented - yes. But you didn't say per capita (still wouldn't be right). Ya'll aint Rock Hill. In the last 5 years.....go schedule a big time private. PD or Ch Christian. They recruit too. You will get to see how that talent looks. Kudos KM for putting that one 7-5 Ch. Catholic team on the schedule. Ya'll are still 0-3 lifetime vs. them. They recruit, too.
THE MOST TALENTED county of football players in NC? Laughable .... even with the recruiting/cheating. Yall need to get out and see some more football.

Call a spade a spade. Shelby hasn't been "SHELBY" since about 2019. Burns has had those 7-8 years of really good football teams the last 45-50 years. KM.......super bowl champs every year in early August. 7-8 Win team every November. Nobody gets clowned more than the overzealous parents/hype mongers of the greater KM/western GACO area who send their kids to KM. 100 years of talking and 0 years of payoff. Crest has recruited the best and combined it with good coaching, community support, etc so they've been the class of CC the last 15 years. I'm not wrong.
Get up.

You don’t get it. And you probably never will. Please don’t digress into nonsense privates, SC, and recruiting to avoid answering a simple question.
And you reference a period where Shelby was champs 7 out of 9 consecutive years.
And that’s not enough?
Do we have to win it EVERY YEAR ?!
How many does it take for you?!

So answer our question.
What NC county tops Cleveland County in PUBLIC high school football accomplishments in the last 6 decades?

Understand?

Facts......... But they're chasing us now. That's why that dude types unsolicited testimonials that we can all see the bull-squirt in.

Bunch of micro-penis having cheap ring winning weirdo's.

Clowns! Weight Bullies is fantastic Chopper. That's exactly what they are.
