I think that the rain had a bit to do with the anger over Talley's injury, considering I think we've had to pull out a gun and shoot a player before to get them off the field as quick as possible on a cramp, and it seemed like that went on forever.
If when Coleman was injured, Norton hadn't pulled their team to the side, and then when Clintwood finally got the refs to get them back out there, I thought I was watching a slow motion instant replay (with all Nortons speed, they sure left that sideline slowly *lol*). That being said, thats not really Nortons fault for taking advantage of it, as much as it was the official on that side for not stepping in at first. I think it was a snowball at that point (and you gotta give Clintwood a little rope, for years we've seen Haysi be in a situation where they needed a blow and a Haysi player having the worlds worst cramp for 10 minutes, go off the field and come back in the next play and look faster than they ever had).
I think most of the fans from both sides respect the other and their teams, so i'm not gonna judge Burton by the idiots booing during warmups, don't judge Clintwood by a couple who yell at refs the whole games.
