I QUESTION NORTON'S FOOTBALL PROGRAM

**PigskinPete** · September 17th, 2007, 07:39 PM

With the recent observations that I made about Norton being used to cheating, now I wonder what kind of football program they really have down there. Sure, I think they are just an average team here in our state and its apparent they can compete at a sub-state level, but I question the integrity of the system itself. Most people know that about every starter on there team are 18 and 19 year old redshirts that have the experience of playing 5 years of high school ball. Its kinda sad that these 19 year olds run rampant, thug style on the 15 and 16 year old here in the LPD. How many Burton players go on to play college ball, and lets not count the ones that dont last the 1st week of practice????? Hmmm, my minds a blank..., wait, there was that Gravely guy, wait, hes in prison now....Well, I just cant think of one...Im sure the Norton people will remind me...hahahahahah

Seems to me you are the only person on here who really questions Burton's football program. WTF is your problem. Did you secretly try out and Jimbo thought you weren't good enough, or did you play against Burton and someone on their team hurt your feelings. The last two anti-Burton threads have been started by you. And name me one 19 year on on Burton's team. There are a couple who are 18 and no VHSL rules are being broken, sure some red-shirted but they never broke a rule. Red-shirting has been going on for years.

Look moron, you might want to do some research. There are only 5 starters that are seniors genius. Most of our starters are sophmores and juniors. Get a life dumbass. Quit being a sore loser and crybaby.

Ah, man you know everybody hates the winner. Burton has been a successful program over that last couple years and so you get the haters. But, you know jealous is a disease and so people need to make this type of excuses to feel better about thierselves. [censored]'em if they can't take a joke, lol! As in the words of Freddy "F" the haters!

I think most of the delusional Kelly backers have came back to reality and realized they aren't on Nortons level just yet, but this guy is way out there.... DUDE, BURTON COULD HAVE PLAYED WITH 7 AND THE OUTCOME WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANY DIFFERENT.... Deal with it, better luck next year....
