Clintwood-Haysi thoughts

[R0cketer]

Well, I can definitely say Haysi handed it to Clintwood. Came out of the gate, put it on Clintwood early, maybe shell shocked the Wave a bit. Clintwood, to their credit, didn't give up and had a chance before the half to put it down to a 1 score game, but Haysi stepped up and made a big stop.

Simply put, the Haysi lines dominated the game.

I'll post more later but for the moment, well my birthday is ruined. I don't mind losing so much if you play well, but I can truthfully say we didn't. Not taking anything away from Haysi, they executed pretty well all night.

Congratulations Haysi

Well, happy birthday anyway.

Maybe our favorite Clintwood fan can give some perspective on the game after you give your thoughts. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Well since your favorite poster hasn't got on here yet, I'll chime in. Tell me something GC1, you have the ball first and goal with about 2 minutes to go. All 3 timeouts, and bam you hurry to the line and ground the ball. Then time -out. Well in short we end up getting an intentional grounding call which was correct. In short, no score and go in the locker room with 2 timeouts left. Halftime-27-13, could've been 27-20. Thoroughly outplayed and outcoached. Haysi is the real deal again.

I'm so danged tore up, I'm rambling on like LPDFTBL and Spuds. I hope I made a little sense. Those Tigers are one heck of a team!!!!!!!!!! And that my friends{and many enemies} is the ole ballgame!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i know that im going to sound like a sore loser who is try to make excuses but the tigers have one of the dirtiest players that i ever saw. #7 (dont know his name) would take you after the ref blew the whistle and wasnt looking and throw you to the ground. Then when you get up he is standing there like nothing happened. It happened to everyone one of our recievers tonight not just me. The refs shouldve called the penalty or something.
But i have to give congrats to the tigers they whipped us tonight on the lines.

He had a nasty streak a mile long didnt he Tim?? He had the mentality that some of our players need.

[timmy_v]

I mean i can understand him hitting us and throwing us the the ground but waiting until the whistle blows to do it is just wrong. Now if he did it before the whist i couldnt say anything about him.

[greencrest1272]

I seen him knocking you all down left and right, but I never seen him do it after the whistle. Not to say that he didnt because you could just tell that he was nasty, but I didnt see it. He was just like the school yard bully and unfortunatly, it looked as though you were one of his favorite victims.

[timmy_v]

Yea he looked around to make sure that the refs werent looking and then do it. He was mean but i guess he just liked throwing someone like half his size(me) down a lot. We i cant complain a whole lot i did get a way with blocking him in the back once.

I agree with what was said for the most part. The Haysi O & D lines dominated the game. They're just a much better team right now. Starting only 2 seniors and 1 or 2 juniors against a seasoned team like that can be hard. I think they're the favorites again for the Region D Championship. They play hard fast and just smack you in the face. It reminded me of some of the old Appy teams.

I was pleased with the way our guys kept fighting. It'd be easy to give up down 20 in the first quarter but they stuck with it. That first quarter killed us. We looked like crap in every phase of the game. I thought we played much better for the next three quarters but not near enough to win.
