I hate to see this great rivalry game end. It always brought out lots of fans and was a good money maker for both teams. As long as the competition was friendly and all in good fun things were great. Now that Greenup has beat Raceland two years in a row the mud has been slung pretty far and wide, from the coaching staff to the players and fans.

Except for the money, why would Greenup want to play Raceland? If they win, they get no credit..just a lot of whining and complaining about a big 4A school picking on a little 1A school type comments. If they lose, well then of course GC isn't any good...etc. What is in it for the team? Nothing except dollars. Maybe a nice two year break will allow some of the fans to cool off a little and realize it is just a football game...One that takes place between neighboring schools, one that many families have ties to on both sides.

Good Post

One thing I'll miss is Greenup fans and Raceland fans going for each other throats every game even when their not playing each other. What are we going to do now? OH wait we both still got Russell I say their threads next year will get interesting.
