I never said I wasn’t proud of these kids or the way they take care of their business. They can’t help the fact that the competition is nonexistent most of the way. As a fan though, it’s difficult to get too excited when most games are over before the half. I guess I miss the day when there were rivalry games, challenging conference opponents. It’s just not that compelling to be up 42-0 before half most of the time. Most of the teams in 1A have zero history, tradition, infrastructure for highly competitive football. Tarboro has all that because they have dropped from higher classifications and those things have been in place for decades. With teams like SWO, WRH and JK all up in 2A, there aren’t many chances to even be challenged.
