Why would I be upset if someone criticizes the officials? All I’m trying to do is give some insight into the situation. I have no idea who worked your last two games, no idea whether they were good or bad. I’m certainly not going to put a lot of stock in what any fan would have to say. Nothing personal towards fans, they just don’t know/understand rules and mechanics. That’s not a slight, it’s just a fact. One thing you need to absolutely believe, if you think it’s bad now, just wait, because guys are retiring and they’re not being replaced. Fair enough point. 1 Quote
ragdoll Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 I have come to accept that likely we are just fortunate to have a crew to officiate so the game can be played. If they seem to not stand out negatively, that is a major plus. High school on down, it is passion only, just as stringers used to be. Best to just thank them for putting in the effort of showing up and trying. A lot of car miles with gas so expensive. Quote

I.O did make some outstanding points. No argument here. Every fanbase has people who get upset with officiating. That's the first time in my life of either being a Floyd Central fan or player, which is about 30 years worth, that I've actually seen the crowd boo the officials off the field. Justified or not, they weren't happy either. Edited October 3, 2023 by Fkfootball Quote

Frozen Tundra Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Boring week for picks. These should be unanimous. Columbus East (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Jeffersonville (0-7, 0-4 HHC) Jennings County (3-4, 0-4 HHC) at #8/#10 Floyd Central (6-1, 4-0 HHC) New Albany (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Seymour (4-3, 3-2 HHC) Madison (1-6) at BNL (4-3) Quote
Impartial_Observer Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 I’ll be honest fellas, I took Seymour, but historically NA has been a thorn in Seymour’s side. Seymour has lost some games to them they shouldn’t have. But this is another year, perhaps I place too much importance on historical data as it relates to today. Hopefully everyone plays their best and stays healthy, let the chips fall where they may. Quote
Frozen Tundra Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Still need picks from @LawrenceGreene, @mamasa, and @swcgillespie Quote
Fkfootball Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 I hope Floyd Central doesn't overlook Jennings County. They did last year and it cost them. Quote
