locally?
The reason I bring this up is because I think we can discuss this fairly adult like, give our reasons, and maybe some of us can relate.
I will start by saying that Im from norton and I do not like the Crowder family being involved in sports the way they are. As long as I have been a fan of sports, I dont remember reading articles so one sided towards pro-raider propaganda. When it comes to announcing Mr Crowder seems to be very biased as well. I love the raiders but I feel that it gives us a bad name and its not fair objective reporting. As some have said, he has a complete and utter hatred for GC. I know during tennis season, he once threatened to pull all 3 of his kids off the team if one didnt get to be in the top #6.(starters). I feel the guy is just too involved and because he is respected by older members of the community(mostly country club members that he has bonded with) he gets a pass.
I know most if not all folks in this forum dont play tennis, but around here you call your own lines(make your own calls) and its really easy to cheat if you want. I respect the game and would rather just get an arse kicking than cheat to win. His kids have a bad reputation for making bad calls(call it cheating, call it blindness). Ol Dad is around for all of his kids matches and he doesnt bother to get mad at them for blowing calls. Ask Wave10s, ask GCD22, ask State81, I know what Im talking about here. Ive seen some of the most respected fellas in our area get cheated by these guys, I guess you clintwood folks know Dillion and Derrick Sutherland. Both tremendous players who would never lose to a teenager but even against guys like this, the Crowder kids still blow calls.
Anyway, I thought this would be a good thread, lets keep it as positive as possible, I stated my reasons. So PVfan, heres your chance to rant about Crockett some more. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
