Listen anybody who comes on here and says that 51-22 is a close game deserves what they get. I constantly see on your posts that you are always playing the "numbers" card. If everyone in the Phelps community thinks like you do its no wonder they struggle year in and year out. It appears that you accept mediocrity and are more than willing to come up with an excuse as to why you cant win instead of facing the cold hard truth of how you could win and be competitive. If your kids are constantly told that they cant beat Pikeville because Pikeville has more kids or the even more pathetic excuse that Pikeville "recruits" are just that: pathetic excuses. Instead of giving excuses as why a team beats you all the time why dont you put all that energy into trying to find a way to beat them. I dont blame the kids at phelps nor will I ever but the adults need to quit giving excuses and treat football as somthing other than a pastime till B-ball starts. Belfry is a much bigger school thatn we are but you dont hear us using that as an excuse about losing last friday night.

FIRST off... I don't play the number card... WHATEVER you think that is... and secondly, I don't have to MAKE excuses for the kids at Phelps... people like YOU do it for them! BY reading the stuff that is posted (ALWAYS negative) about them! As for the "amount" of kids at PHS.... I bet there are more than 55 in the senior class over there aren't they?? I don't knock ANY child.. and these kids are just that... KIDS... be it from Phelps, Pikeville, Belfry, PC, or SV... it's NOT the kids.. BUT the adults who tear the kids down!!! Kids can sling trash at each other but adults shouldn't throw it back!! THAT was my point!!!!!! I don't condone a losing attitude BUT you play with WHAT you have! PERIOD!!!!!! Your pride can get the best of ya and some of these kids wear it on their sleeve! I only pray that the adults can contain themselves during the game and let the kids be kids and play the game! (HOW is that for some NUMBERS????)
