[Watchful Eye]

I heard Jared Crum's dad last night tell a fan from SC to "wait til next year". Implying that Paintsville will be way down after this Sr. class graduates. We all know they will be down, but for a guy that sends his kid to JC from SC has a lot of gall to say anything to a fan from SC trying to consol their feelings. That was a real slap in the face IMO.
It doesn't matter who you root for, if you were at this game, you had to leave impressed.

Very True. Every team has their particular year of advancement. When making statements like "wait till next year", it is perceived that they have already give this year a wash. Johnson Central will have a great team next year, I personally think that is wonderful. Hopefully Sheldon Clark the next year and so fourth and so on. That will make our district look and appear that much stronger to high school sports writers across the state. As I have said many time before we do more damage to ourselves on a state level with negative comments that the rest of the state does to us (the 57th District and 15th Region). Example: If Paintsville were to beat Central or any team in the 57th one time during regular season next year, then that team went went on to sweep the district and hopefully the region. While setting at Rupp, the Paintsville or Sheldon Clark fan to turn to their neighbor and say " ya know we beat them once this year". Now how adult would that be? Congradulating accomplishments is an ADULT trait. Whinning like a baby is the act of a small child.
