Bell has proved a lot over the years and deserve to be proud I agree with that. But the reason I am such a heckler is posts similar to yours, you say HC gets mad when we aren't picked win, but some Bell posters get mad and basically tell people they are ignorant, stupid, mindless, idiots for saying bell will lose. So the way I see it neither of us like to be told we are going to lose! Which is what I base a lot of my thinking on, you should never think your team will lose.

You didn't get the point. Every team has posters that say stupid things and go off the deep end if someone picks their opponent to win the game. BELL has them for sure. But HARLAN CO. does as well. There's not a thing wrong with supporting your team and believing in them to win a game.
I've seen posters from Harlan Co. picking their team to win. That's just fine with me. They should think that unless their team is just horrid. Harlan County is far from being horrid. My point is this, posters get on here slamming the other school and making one degrading remark after another. That's just stupidity of the individual. That's not stupidity of all the posters who back that same team. It's an individual, not a whole group. I don't judge a teams fans based on one person. Just like your ranting about how bad you hate Bell. How you just hate everything about them, period! Hate is a strong word. And then you say, they think no one can beat them. Well, they better have that mentality. If not, don't even show up for the game. Bell has been one program who stands out in this area for all ot their success. Whether you like that or not. They'll show up Friday at Cawood thinking they will hand Harlan Co. their butts. That's what they should feel. But, that doesn't say they nothing about disrespecting Harlan Co. What it says is, we believe in ourselves. We're the better team and we will win this ballgame. That's what every player should think. But, they have to go out on the field and do it.
Just leave the hatred you have for in your ownself. I don't hate Harlan Co. And yes, I pull for them through out this season. As most in Bell supports Knox and Whitley as well. Here's an old saying one of my buddies came up with that are on many t-shirts now. It says, don't hate us cause you aint us. Bell should be commended for all of their accomplishments along with many other programs here in the mountains. Prime example, I really respect the Belfry program and their coach. Appreciate all of our mountain teams. Just pull against them only when they are playing your team....... Let's grow up a little. And remember, when you say you hate Bell, you're hating those kids that play the game for Bell. That's sad....
