Wait, Lion. Were you at the Burns game this past Friday, or no?
I was there for all 3 exits, and can tell you that there was plenty of bi-lateral bad winning and losing going on. I saw you at 2 of them, but not this week.
I agree that the exit is problematic, and funnels both teams toward one another. That has seldom been a problem for many years. Forever, both fanbases and teams went out the same gate they came in...Not sure how your additional info to the helmet story helps your case, tho. The injured child was innocent, non-culpable, a mere bystander. He saw plenty of classlessness masquerading as hardness.
I took multiple cursings from fans and one "coach" after our playoff loss, because I was not allowing them to walk thru the Lincolnton families waiting at the fieldhouse. I was routing them out the new gate, and around the corner of the fieldhouse where your buses were parked. That is our county's answer to the problem.
Remember your fans trying to climb the 8 foot fence to get to our players? Remember the players filing past with that big speaker on wheels, stopping to laugh and taunt our folk? And the group of Lion coaches strolling along watching and smiling?
I was there 160...I know I'm soft, but I cant figure out how shared bad behavior is a Lincolnton problem. We spoke before the game, and you were much more pleasant before, than after your win. I think you are pretty decent dude, in real life. But like you say, I can't prove it.
BBD...I hope you get over your historic win. You are a hard guy. If you could see the world thru "sawfter" lenses, maybe you could see there's more than one perspective, and a lot of people, players, coaches and real-time posters could learn some class or decorum...but then, they'd need midol for their softness.
Funny how there was never a problem with Shelby until we get good enough to fight back, talk back, and compete. Now, something needs to be done, lol
I have always respected both your teams, fans and traditions. This board used to be fun, to. Things change. Now, its just another facebook, where people can crow, blame and accuse...
