Nicely Put. Valley gets the same type of "snobbish" remarks from many but I have been proud to raise my kids in Valley schools. GREAT community!wobycat wrote:To axe
You know with the country in financial debt, Ebola, brink of war, amongst other crazy things, I'm sure fans of other teams are strong enough to handle a couple of pokes.
It's like the above poster said, it's burgfan. Com for a reason. No one has to listen. But I will tell you this, when I meet new people from anywhere in the area, I cringe when I tell them from where I graduated from. Usually the first thing they say is I hate burg people, or they're arrogant, stuck up rich people. Every single time.
Well guess what? I'm not rich and I would give you the shirt off my back. I laugh at and poke fun with the best of them and not afraid to own up to a mistake or eat some crow. I'm not perfect, I believe Jesus, I'm a family man, and I truly care for my community.

I was wondering if his 3rd grader got on his account.nutronron2012 wrote:Just sounds like a sarcastic statement to me.

You have to realize Coach Crabtree had major surgery the day before the game. I know people will say that he didn't take a snap or make a tackle, but their week of preparation without him and a game without him on the sideline had to be a huge distraction. Even though he will not be on the sideline this week, they know he made it through, is recovering and that distraction is no longer new. I was not at SP last week, but I can imagine that this week's Indians team will not resemble last week's team.unclebob wrote:After watching Valley play last week at South Point. I was not impressed at all. For the Pointers to keep it 0/0 in the first quarter says a lot. SP gave them the ball on 3 interceptions and a fumble on a kickoff on their own side of the field. They should have killed SP with such great field position. SP"S defense did keep them in the game and make some stops and forced fumbles. Valley needs to work on better handling of the ball. I wasn't impressed and it wasn't the same team I watched play Portsmouth earlier in the year. If SP had any kind of offense this year this game would have been very close.
Valley also fumbled on their own 20 and muffed a punt on their own 30. No doubt that the Indians were lethargic and did not play well, but the fact of the matter is in the middle of the 4th quarter it was 41-0 and SP had 6 yards of total offense.unclebob wrote:After watching Valley play last week at South Point.

Valley has not played well for a couple weeks. Hopefully they have it out of their system now. They will be ready tomorrow night. SP was never a threat last week. At no time was the game in question. The only question last week was, when will Valley stop shooting themselves in the foot and execute. They did just that at the start of the second qtr. Tomorrow night cannot get here quick enough. The team with the fewest mistakes will win.Crab's brother wrote:Valley also fumbled on their own 20 and muffed a punt on their own 30.
