Last week was more fun when the opposition was showing their ass. I think that helped us.

Turkeysalad, do you care to say our kids aren’t worth a nickel and they’re slow and soft and don’t talk right? Just need some bulletin board stuff. Ashland made it a little easier.

Your kids aren't worth a nickel and they're slow and soft and don't talk right.

Happy? nicker:

Belfry needs to insist on the far sideline. That way, they will not have to wipe spit off their helmets.

That's assault. And it's a shame that it is allowed to continue.

With all due respect, the candor falls short.

There was ONE Officer at the Bardstown game, and he was powerless to do anything. There were 3 “Event Staff” women who were all over 60 years old, and did absolutely and positively nothing. And I’m sorry, but the old guard Desales crowd stood idly by and watched it happen. They did nothing, and in all fairness could not have done anything because the ugly truth is that there are more bad actors than good actors. If I were from Belfry, I would bring weapons. They spit on players, and there was a fight in which a 9 year-old child was assaulted and hospitalized. They formed a postgame group that laughed at the inconsolate Tiger seniors, and a coach even participated from the locker room. This is neither hyperbole or sour grapes; I have several of the incidents on video. Be proud, Archdiocese, they are yours!

If prior evidence exists of these things, and those people are still allowed to attend games, then the administration should be considered an accomplice. Simple as that! They should be just as guilty as the people who engage in this behavior.

It will be.

But listen to yourself. You are actually here, telling the assaulted visiting fans to do something. YOU DO SOMETHING!

Bring the Archdiocese down. Make a statement. Shut the season down. Forfeit to Belfry, and let your fan base know that Desales High School will not permit itself to be demeaned by base thuggery.

Exactly!! The entire program should be wiped out until the fan base can be controlled. I cannot believe, if all these accusations are true, that someone hasn't brought charges against them. I've heard a whole lot about Scroggins and how much respect he has from programs all over the state. I'm very surprised that he hasn't done more to stop this!

That's for damn sure! They won't be getting many INT's from us! 😂

Hmmm......don't I remember a 76 yard passing TD from last week???

I agree my friend. Shouldn't even be an issue, especially when kids are involved. Crazy.

Belfry fans are just as fanatic as anyone else but we cause no problems and are VERY respectful to visitors who come to play. At least it's been that way the 4 years Ethan has been there. Ask most people, and they'll tell you Pond Creek was a great high school football experience.

Okay, even I can attest to this. Belfry fans are fanatical and some are even arrogant, but I have never felt more welcomed than when I visited their stadium.

We already have. The Pike County Superintendent has been notified and responded. We'll just see what happens from here.

That's a great start!! But don't stop with just that. If an incident does happen, charges should be filed and you should contact every media outlet in the state! I haven't heard about anything that has been listed, happening at DeSales. I know it's very far away from here but that sounds like stuff that would make national news!!!

at first I thought all this desales stuff, was just "talk". It's sad that a fan cant go to a game and enjoy watching kids play, but instead have to worry about their own safety.

If its that bad, why doesn't the school handle it? If they know about all of this, and its true, one would assume that's some liability on the school and they wouldn't want that.

Yes, liability should exist. The school has the option to not allow those fans to attend games.

And I will say this; if a high school football game cannot be played because of fear of injury from the fans and the school cannot or will not control those people, then that school should not be allowed to compete. PERIOD

Violence tends to create violence. God forbid, but they will attack the wrong fan base one of these days, and it could turn out to be devastating!
