Tonight’s crew has to be out of the area. I expect to see stripes from Northern Ohio in Wheelersburg this evening.Westfan wrote: Sat Nov 03, 2018 1:25 pmWhat makes you so sure those holding calls weren't legit?

If Burg which I know they will have a good game this contest shouldn't be close . Burg 42 West 0 end of story!
Of course if Garry Burg Bailey is there I would agree they won't be called. Him and his crew of homers see no wrong

The one holding at the end when burg had the Ball inside the 3 the ref threw the flag at the snap for a holding call. He must have had a premonition that burg was going to holdWestfan wrote: Sat Nov 03, 2018 1:25 pmWhat makes you so sure those holding calls weren't legit?

Well they definely weren't from West. Betting on the game is a possibility., but they definitely aren't West homers. To my knowledge they've never done West games

I don’t know if any fans that would claim that crew. They were consistent. Just consistently bad both ways.Westfan wrote: Sat Nov 03, 2018 2:06 pm Well they definely weren't from West.

That being said, I’m certain the crew tonight will do a good job. Burg penalties will get better IMO. Playoff crews call things a little differently. That hold that’s away from the play on the backside that doesn’t affect the play will disappear.
Look at the finals last year. Eastwood first score was a WWE take down on Lowery right before half, and no flag.

Re: Region 20 #8 Portsmouth West @ #1 Wheelersburg
I'm pretty sure I heard on the radio that last week's crew was from West Virginia. I didn't even realize referees could officiate across state lines, but what do I know? I'm just a redneck from the West Side.

Pretty pathetic crowd on the Burg side. Lot of empty seats!!
Re: Region 20 #8 Portsmouth West @ #1 Wheelersburg
Burg even recruited the train horn sound effect. That was a long time west staple.
Re: Region 20 #8 Portsmouth West @ #1 Wheelersburg
Haha I was way off with my gut feeling.
Burg is far far far superior and deserves all of their praises and recognition.
Go Burg

FIVE TURNOVERS. Ouch. This could be a 1-2 score game right now.
Re: Region 20 #8 Portsmouth West @ #1 Wheelersburg
Terrible clock management by west on last drive cost them 2-3 more throws to endzone.

Just saw West’s band and how are they a D5 band with all of those Burg recruits? There CBB (competitive band balance) has to be around 30.
Sorry just had to do it!!!
