    Who Is That Player/Coach?

    Definitely Coach Gill. We loved watching him and always felt we had a chance to win with him on the sidelines. Tough was a stud on both sides of the ball. But I remember several other kids in that era that were pretty special too. Perkins was a great rb & db for 4 years. Really enjoyed...

    2C Regionals

    Two totally different programs in appomattox from what I’ve seen. One based on faith, class & sportsmanship. The other, not so much. I don’t know how many of the kids play both sports but it sounds like at least one. Not a very smart comment when getting beat by 30!! 😂 I tried watching it...

    Sussex vs riverheads

    I humbly disagree. Appomattox might win more than half the time, but I think it would be more competitive than you are letting on. I would say out of 10 games Appo 6-7, RH 3-4. Why does it feel like Appomattox is in that love/hate area? Last year they were the feel good story, this year is...

    Sussex vs riverheads

    So let me get this straight, it's ridiculous to say a 1A champ could give a 2A champ a good game, but certainly logical to say a 2A champ would beat the 3A and 4A champs? Not to mention the games aren't going to happen this year anyway. Wow.

    Sussex vs riverheads

    Congratulations Riverheads!

    Appomattox vs. Goochland

    Haha. Nope, not what I meant. Goochland will definitely show up and definitely play and will definitely play to win. They are 1 of 4 2A teams playing for a reason. I'm not playing, coaching or honestly going to the game. I'm just a fat dude on a sofa giving my 2 cents worth. Yes, I'm primarily...

    Appomattox vs. Goochland

    No disrespect to anyone or any team but Appo will win by 25-30. Without any Seminole teams to watch, this is how I see it. Districts competition = even. Both teams play in traditionally strong districts but both districts are very weak this year. Non-district competition = Appo. Rustburg...

    4A East Semis: #1 Dinwiddie (29) #2 Lake Taylor (15) - FINAL

    Agreed!! Way too many teams in the playoffs now. 3A East had a 1-9 team make it only to get shutout and beat by 50+...go figure. Sounds like the Dinwiddie/LT game lived up to the hype. I wish I could have seen it. Still a lot of football to be played yet so I'm not ready to hand them the...

    Thoughts on this article I saw on Yahoo? I would play em anyway!

    The article is a little vague to say the least. "18 players over 200 pounds, 6 over 250, 3 over 300"...so? Advocates' raiders (according to maxpreps) have 17 over 200, 7 over 250, & 2 over 300. Dan River 18, 5, 2 respectively. Amherst has 20, 9, 2 respectively. These were the only area teams I...

    Best team in 4A?

    Statistically speaking the 2007 Amherst team was the best out of the 2006-2010 span. For those interested, based solely on statistics the 2007 team beats the 2016 team 40-28. Again, this is purely from statistics and not a knock against any of the Amherst teams...and I'm surely not getting into...

    Seminole starting to define itself

    For whatever reason Brookville seems to play Amherst tough (even pulling an upset last year @ Amherst if I remember correctly.). I don't think this will be another upset but if Amherst looks past them for JF revenge, Brookville could make it close.

    Byrd for real. Blast Stanton River

    Impressive win by WB last night. IMO I would say they made strides to get into the top tier of teams. Where does LCA fit in the mix? Also JF had an impressive win last night to make a claim for the 2nd spot in the Seminole with a showdown against Amherst coming up soon. There are a lot of games...

    Any Lord Botetourt fans here?

    Whatever dude. I countered your opinion with mine and you counter with go eat a shoe. Big man. I never said you were a coach, I did say you were on the sidelines not in the stands. I never said your last name was the same as a coach, I did say your son never played for smith as you say. Need...

    Any Lord Botetourt fans here?

    Baker...Jack Baker...Rustburg's HC... Wow, you called the man an idiot (on several occasions), said the Appomattox/Rustburg game was a huge rivalry and didn't know his name?!?! How many state titles do those "idiot" coaches have? If I were Coach Smith I think I would have a problem with you...

    Any Lord Botetourt fans here?

    I agree if a coach leaves starters in to run up the score that is not good business. I haven't meet Coach Harless, so I can't speak to him or his program. The only game I saw LB play was close and running the score up wasn't an option. Most coaches put in subs when the clock starts running (up...
