Do what you do best and be that fairweather Lincolnton fan.. You chirped all spring and summer about that defense, about not giving up a single touchdown, blah blah, and Lincolnton once again got exposed just like the semi finals last year..

When you lose back to back to Shelby and Cramer, I guess we wont see you until next season.. Maybe you and Prodigal can meet at BBQ King over some slaw sandwiches and talk about what could have been... When this season is over and the Lynch boys are gone and the LB is gone is back to the cellar the wolves go

Tick tock...
RJ has 1 more season. And we have another Mayfield coming 😂 and we have forced 18 turnovers in 4 games…… when we are full strength…. We are a handful…. You’ll see us twice…. So you get to hear my mouth at least 2 more times… haha

Burns scored 7 points when Mayfield was playing…. Scored 49 when he was gone…. Dang it Max….. Max is still running right now….

Let’s Gooo wolves…..

You're good people Bushleague, dont mind me, I am just shooting the bull on a Sunday afternoon... I respect the Wolves and their fans, who honestly most are some of the nicest people you will ever meet....

heck of a ball club over there, we know first hand what they can do, cause they did it to us last year... gonna take one heck of a good overall game to tame those wolves again

Really weird comments. Kinda creepy.
Im sorry. Metaphors must not be your strong suit I’ll make it plain for you.

Lincolntons defense is soft and it sucks. It got ran through without compassion

Therefore it is curious to most of us why the players and fans ran-off at the mouth.

All you got for it was embarrassment and an a.s.s.whipping.

Enjoy!

I have followed the boards since about 2009 ish

people told me years ago. I should get an account because I joke around and stir things up. I joke around about it.

Burns and Lincolnton play 10 times. I’d say it’s 5-5

Shelby and Lincolnton plays I feel the same way 5-5

Both teams have really good players and coaches

We all can agree we have a few head cases on our teams…. That they are good kids… but will have that moment where they will lash out… and it is what it is

Coach willbanks delt with BS last year

I’m sure burns has had knuckle heads too

Coach Angle is punishing he has set players out this year… starters have set out…

I think that Max Davis is the real deal. When the game got close and in jeopardy for burns to win the game. He came in on defense. That dude is a warrior

He is probably some young guy who is excited about his team. He isn’t a sneering, hateful type of a poster that uses his team to drag others through the mud like the Newton-Conover poster back in 2008-09.

From what I read Burns was missing their staring MLB, down to their 3rd string qb, and lost a starter in the fight as well. I don’t see anyone from Burns making any excuses about anything that happened before or after the fight. Not sure it would have matter, Burns seems like the better team.

And to that point I guess you Burns was down 2 linebackers as Max hasn’t been playing defense for whatever reason.

Looking at max preps he started at LB his sophomore and junior year. Load management maybe. I wound say he’s their work horse and they need him late November/December if they’re fortunate to be playing then.

They whipped us as bad as we’ve been whipped in the second half. And that’s a metaphor, they didn’t literally whip us. But it felt like it. But to use rape is weird. I don’t know what fans ran their mouth after getting whipped but it wasn’t me. Our defense did suck on Friday but it’s game 4 and there’s time to improve. Hopefully we will.

They won so they don’t have to make excuses. I remember last year when we beat them they had one poster that wouldn’t give us credit. Said Burns lost the game, we didn’t win it. Who cares. Let’s all move on. Many more weeks of football to go. I hope Burns wins the 4A title. Would be great for their community. And by the way, they were better off without a passing QB. It worked to their advantage to abandon the pass.

Kids at Shelby throw helmets and hit 10 yr old kids in the face…..
This went before a judge, and was thrown out.
No evidence, so at this point ,you are saying here say...
But I do know that as we were taking our players out, while there were fans and players of Lincolnton out in front of fieldhouse, your fans and players were cuzzing our players and pushing started...
Now Burns folks are saying kinda something and that they had to take team straight to Bus.
And your AD must felt some type way, when we come back for playoffs the Ent. And exit was all different,

If you are going to tell this story tell the entire story of how yalls fans were all up in the players faces yelling and screaming and someone shoved the player.. what he did was wrong but yall aint innocent... Ask Burns about friday how yalls fans were yelling and screaming at their kids and families making it hard to get to the bus to even get out of there

True story, UGLY

bottom line for whatever reason the last two seasons the some of Lincolnton fans are lost on how to win or lose... and they show it after the games...
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...

Sorry sir, I think you have me mistaken for someone else.. I didnt get to come for that playoff game, I went to see my mother at the nursing facility in Rutherfordton and didnt make it back home until around the time of kickoff... Im not sure who you spoke too. Seems like we have met before but I dont remember where? Maybe up at Hibriten years back

anyway I would like to think most would say I am a decent dude in person, as all this nonsense on the boards is just drivel and my way of having a little fun. Hindsight, have I took it overboard, yes sir, I have and I apologize... You are correct all schools have their loudmouths and instigators, lord knows we have a few

Yall got Mr. Lincolnton, pacing back and forth over there, giving me bad looks, and intimidates me with his height and Michael Myers kind of ambience when it gets cold and he wears that dark colored one piece zip up work like onsie LOL ( he will get a kick out of that one)

with all that said, Ill see my way out of this thread gents, yall carry on

Im on Shelby staff, I was in middle of what happened the 1st time Shelby was there. Im not a coach but I am on staff.
I didnt see helmet get thrown if it did really get thrown , it was wrong,
When it went before a judge , Lincolton brought some players who testified they saw our player do it,
It was determined that was false, because they said he had his jersey on and saw his number, when in fact, this player had pulled his jersey way before comming out, this was thrown out ..
But a fact I did experience the cuzzing and the pushing, and even saw a Lincolton coach grap one of our players by head...
I talked both with your coach and Ad when we returned in playoffs,
We all said apologies and agreed when u get alot of idiots together, something bad always comes from it...
Maybe just ned to stop pointing fingers of who done what, but I do feel Lincolton needs better ENT and Exit policy.

I can live with your explanation and conclusion, sir. I wish we had a better setup, but theres a river where the visitor gate should be. There are some things that could be done, but we aren't high on the priority list. You saw the parking lot, lol. That tent yall dressed in has been a permanent fixture, though.I thought yall mighta loaded the buses from that end zone, but that didnt happen. Still seems the best option to me🤷🏼. But very imperfect

Funny you mention this, AMD. We have been informed that due to our failing visitors locker room, that the County is planning to build the Visitors a new, modern locker room. It will be beside of the disputed visitors exit, btw...about 40 feet from the palatial home locker room, circa 1965.

We have been under constant supervision from the County Office this season, so maybe they will see the problems with that plan?

Truth. Spent a couple of playoff seasons recently in your stands. Spent one recently on the visitors hill at Burns. Always treated well. Always wearing L-town gear. We had more free-time during playoffs than the past couple of years, lol.

The whole world seems like that now, unfortunately. Failing to reach for a throat is taken for weakness. I miss Mayberry, lol.

Some people look for fights and drama, some attempt to avoid it.
I heard the words "Straight to the bus" 100 times in 5 min after the game Fri. Burns stayed in the opposite end zone for 30 min to let the crowd clear before even attempting to go to the bus. Fans and family were on the fence line trying to see their kids but they had to walk single file straight to the buses. It was a mess and hopefully will be fixed.

Tried to go see my kid on field after a West Charlotte game. Cmpd officer told me we weren't allowed on field. I said man we dont want to cause trouble we just want to hug our kid. It was the seniors last ball game. Once West Charlotte was in locker room he let us go out there and it was a non issue.

They got a white fence where you have to walk and the players were not allowed anywhere near it. No chance any of us could go on the field unless we wanted Lincolntons finest on us. They went from one end to the other telling fans to exit like a herd.

Is it like that for every game there or are you thinking it was because you won the game? I haven’t been to Lincolnton in a while other than basketball, but we play there in about a month. Lincolnton fans have always been very respectful for basketball. The last time I was in Lincolnton for a football game, I didn’t even get comfortable leaning up against the fence and Goo Wyatt had already busted 2 td’s against my beloved SP back in the day.

I have no clue. We have only played them twice in recent years and this was the first one at their house. We do not have the same issues they do. At Burns the visitors have an entirely different entrance and park on the soccer practice field outside the softball field. The visiting team has their own parking lot down that way as well. They use our old field house as their locker room and we use our newer field house. Everything is always separate so that is an issue we never have to worry about.

I don’t think it was because they won the game, but maybe because of the scuffle that happened mid-game and the intensity of the game. We never had issues until what happened after the first Shelby game last year. That got the county involved and sparked changes. I’m all for safety for everyone involved. No one should go to a high school sports event and have to worry about safety, or even verbal abuse, but obviously times have changed. I hate seeing teams not shake hands after games. But it seems necessary several games a year these days.

Understandable, and very well said.

I have no clue. We have only played them twice in recent years and this was the first one at their house. We do not have the same issues they do. At Burns the visitors have an entirely different entrance and park on the soccer practice field outside the softball field. The visiting team has their own parking lot down that way as well. They use our old field house as their locker room and we use our newer field house. Everything is always separate so that is an issue we never have to worry about.
It has been years since I have been to Burns for a football game but I am assuming it is very similar to Crest since the schools are so much alike. Me, my son, and another player did walk out and look at the field when you guys eliminated us in baseball last year. Wanted the boys to get a little peak about what it will be about on October 2nd.
