PS, I’m sitting on my porch with my wife, pretending like I’m doing something vital, instead of getting off my butt and doing something that REALLY needs doing. Like beginning to wage war on the leaves. So if she ask you, tell her the entire football season will be cancelled if I don’t make this post.
A lot of neat stuff this week.
Colonial Heights blocking Caroline’s 19 yard field goal attempt as time expired to preserve the win.
Chilhowie scored with four seconds on the clock but could not convert the 2 point attempt and lost to Rye Cove 39-40.
Hayfield got beat. What’s next, Maury getting beat???
Fuel up the busses. Northampton on the Eastern Shore has rolled off six straight wins. And are highly favored to win their last two games, to finish 8-2. Somebody will be making the long but beautiful trek across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel for a first round playoff game. (I assume Region 1A sends 8 to the playoffs?)
Little ole Randolph Henry in Charlotte County won their second game. And there is scuttlebutt that Amelia, whom
R-H beat, is going to fold up shop and end their season early.
Another story that is not specifically game related is; I heard that Bland County is ineligible for the playoffs. By rule, they are ineligible because they don’t play a complete district schedule. Their Region has the right to grant a waiver, but they voted not to. Pretty much irrelevant anyway, because their chances of qualifying on their record is pretty low.
I noted that Appomattox has won three in a row. I know their victories have not been over particularly good teams, but glad to see them winning.
I was slightly surprised that Manchester beat Bird. And surprised that Kings Fork didn’t didn’t give Oscar Smith a better challenge. And Kecoughtan has scored points for two games in a row!! Lest you not appreciate it, that’s the only points they have scored all year, sans a safety in their first game.
I don’t know about you guys, but I still find it astonishing that Lake Taylor has won only two games this year, after losing to Churchland Friday night. And Hampton’s skid has been a little longer than LT’s, but the idea that the Crabbers would be beaten so soundly, shut out in fact, by Warwick would get you laughed off these boards just a few years ago. Sure Hampton has six wins, but look at who they beat. The only three decent teams they played beat them, two of which beat the socks off them. My, how times have changed.
Enough from me. How about you. Did you see anything that made you say WHAT!?
