    Shrine Bowl Discussion

    It is not personal to me, other than the fact that I will stand up for any kid from the West. I just do not understand why you chose to blame one kid, a kicker. I watched the game with no bias toward any kid. I also looked at the combine numbers from across the state. My main beef with some...

    Shrine Bowl Discussion

    You may not have named the kid, but your criticism is obvious. So you are going to blame the only kid from Western North Carolina to make the team for the loss. You could not possibly be talking about the kid that missed his block on both the field goal and the extra point. I guess the kicker...

    Shrine Bowl Discussion

    If you were at the game, then by all means go ahead and name names. What the heck would you like to say about the kicking game. Read my previous post so I do not have to restate it here. You cannot possibly be talking about the kicker, so what are you referring to? I just checked the roster...

    Shrine Bowl Discussion

    Seriously, what are you talking about? The kicker did not miss any kicks. He never had a chance to kick a field goal, because. they were all blocked by a defender that was on the ball the second it got placed. He has the leg to kickoff to the back of the endzone, and I have heard that he put...

    Did any SMC players make it to the Shirne Bowl?

    http://shrine-bowl.com/a-c-reynolds-combine-results/ This is a link to the Asheville Combine. The players are selected by the Shrine Bowl position coaches based on their combine results/numbers, the eye test, and film. There are several combines across the entire state. The kids with the...

    Important note from NCHSAA Winter Sports Meeting

    I really want to agree with you, and I do agree with most of it, but the proof of my point is the fact that much lower seeds beat top 4 seeds every year in the first round. There is so much diversity of football across the state that pure winning percentage is only one factor in determining how...

    VIKINGFAN08's PARTING SHOTS

    I am going to back you up here. Robbinsville plays with a chip on their shoulder as does Swain. I think the gauntlet that is the SMC regular season turns sweet kids into angry men. I don't necessarily think the "dirty" play is intentional, but a fight for you life until the ref drags you off...

    Important note from NCHSAA Winter Sports Meeting

    While I understand your concern about teams with low records entering the playoffs, consider this: There are teams out there that are stuck in a split conference against their will. There are spit conferences where there are only two teams of the lower classification stuck with a conference...

    Richmond Senior HS the true Dynasty

    Cleveland County has a population a little more than double Richmond County, so for the sake of argument let's consolidate Burns, Crest, Kings Mountain, and Shelby into 2 schools, each about the size of RCSHS. I am pretty sure you would have no. 1 and no. 2 in the state just about every year for...

    East Lincoln - Washington updates

    Congratulations to EL. After a 2-0 start by the East NC teams the West has come roaring back to take a 4-2 lead. As difficult as it is for me to pull for a Meck team, I'll be pulling for a Saturday sweep by the West. Great season EL, Shelby, and Crest.

    Black Knights win State Championship

    Congratualtions to Robbinsville. It has been a long time coming. You guys played great on defense and ground it out when it counted.

    Winning at small schools?

    Huh? I thought Robbinsville's 7-8 grade students were on campus? Are you saying those kids don't play football at all before high school?

    2A Championship Shelby vs Clinton

    SHS LION, I have been debating whether or not to come see this game. If you can get up with the guy with 100 years worth of personalities posting under one user name and have him bring the dude that played on the 1917 team, I might show up. I would love to meet a guy that played before they had...

    Week 4 Swain @ Starmount

    Quote: Jungleimk I decided to wait a couple days to see who gloated, who whined, who trash-talked, and who made excuses before commenting on this game. Thankfully, theres not a whole lot of any of that going on. I dont mind getting a little smack talk thrown back at us after a beat-down like...
