i think it was fare as could be i mean they have playoffs coming up there gonna leave there starting players in maybe a little longer for practice and there's nothing wrong with that but that was very nice of them to do what they did but i can see what you mean i no i would feel like a fool if i was losing to a teams last string when they weren't trying that at all well........they got beat and by a very strong team
NOT A SHOCKER!
but good luck greyhounds and go and get your programs first win!

A nice little read that sounds familiar.

Middletown beat Portsmouth at the Trojans homecoming in 1965 by a score of 98-14. PHS had a bad team and paid the price for it........Middletown and Portsmouth were playing a Greater Ohio League game. I have talked to some people who were at that game and none of them complained about Middletown running up the score.

2 years later, at Portsmouth's homecoming, the Trojans beat the Middies 36-20.

Manchester is just beginning a football program, and unfortunately things like this happen. Within a couple of years if the Greyhounds do it right they can build a respectable program. I think it's great to give the kids who like football in Manchester a chance to play.

exactly. . .this is dumb. .

and I don't even agree with kneeling or running out of bounds. .

you put in your worste players and practice. . .its football. . the mistake was scheduling the game

if you want to worry about the kids. . .I say get rid of them. . .if losing hurts then they don't need to play the game
you should always do your best, and if their JV is that much better than the other teams varsity they would konw before the game
