Week 1 - West at Fairland
Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
I was at the game what happened fairland was down when the incident took place. A player for fairland came off the bench running onto the field ran right into the west huddle and took a cheap shot at one of the west players (looked like a spear shot) then the 2 got into a schuffle other players from both sides were trying to seperate the two, it did look alot worse then it was both players were ejected and it was over, thats all, nothing else, it was over, I mean over nothing else the game continued till the clock ran out at the end of the 4th qrt. No after game fights, as a matter of fact they even shook hands after the game. So all you haters read whatever you want into this your going to anyway and say things, but we are going to talk and play some football here on the WEST SIDE!!!!!
Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
I thought all in all the officials did a good job of handling things,Good job by them!
Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
Haters is right Fan4sure. Since coach has been here we don't see the 15 yard penalties and stupid stuff like we used to. They are disciplined. Even after the tempers flaired last night we never had 1 unsportsmanlike. You always have these Minford and Burg fans on here saying stuff, even when they have no clue what happens. Just like the West/Burg game last year. Who was the team getting the 15 yard penalties? Heres a hint, it wasn't West.

Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
Nobody knows better than us West Siders what people think about us and most like me could care 2 hoots in a Pea Pod about that. But someone needs to tell me what teenage Football player is going just stand back and let a guy on the other team do something like this and not retaliate. Lee Compton is a very good and respectful young man and doesn't go looking for trouble. But sometimes trouble comes your way and you have to defend yourself at the very least.
Its Football and sometimes becomes a test of strength, then when a kid gets the best of another tempers flair and we all seen the results of that. Feel so bad for Lee because he has to set out a couple of games. Sorry Lee its sure going to leave a hole next week.

I seen it and it was just a routine shoe string tackle, Ratliff "I believe" just wrapped him up around low.RedmenPirate wrote:It is in the Ironton Tribune that a Fairland player broke his leg. Does anyone know how that happened?

Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
Fairlands RB was running hard and kept his legs movin and the pwest guy tended to get a bit upset and he grabbed the guys facemask and started hitting him in the face....then a fairland player ran from the sideline to defend his teammate!!!!!! Some people may call it cheap but I see it as a good teammate!!!!
As for the game...Both teams played very hard with pendelton doin what he does...very good running back, midkiff broke his ankle on the second play and Im very sorry for him..Fairland just had too many mistakes in the special teams department, like 2 blocked punts deep in their own territory which led to scores and also a snap over the punters head which led to the same...but a hard fought game by both teams and goodluck the rest of the year to both!!!!!!!!!

Why in the Hell are you bringing me on this and just who do you think you are??? I have never said I was better than anybody. I haven't even posted on this thread so why is my name being dragged through the mud.

Your going back as far as Brian Howell...?? Are you forgetting someone......Initials MH should help ya out :122249siderman wrote:. I believe Ratliff is the best passing QB we've had since Brian Howell. This team is only scratching the surface of what their capable of.
Anyhow..... your right Ratliff is very well put together and is a really good QB.

I want to see the film, I know someone had to record the whole incident, because there is 10 different versions of what happened, so let's roll the tape.

Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
did you notice the word passing? Alfie rarely threw the ball. Wait till you see Ratliff wing it. He's only a junior also.Bleeding Red wrote:Alfie Bricker is the best QB West had in 15 years.

No problem. I couldn't figure out I was being singled out and I hadn't said anything negative about anyone. Thanks for the explanation.
Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
My next door neighbor told me, Me and my 3 dogs together could have beaten Fairland. he said West better get their act together! Im just sayin! He is a long time West fan!!!! I am sure West will do just that!!
Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
Fairland isn't great. Their not Portsmouth or a couple other schools on our schedule. But their not bad. They are well organized, run alot of complex stuff, and for a first game they are extremely tough to adjust to. In no way did West play great, but they did the things they had to do to win. They blocked and tackled well.
I agree, Portsmouth will be a big step up in competition. Good thing is we played with them last year and there is no doubt we are tons better than last year, we'll just have to see how much better they are.

Re: Week 1 - West at Fairland
Fairland will win more ball games than you think and probably could beat your neighbor too!
