Thanks! Its always been a dream of mine to be a sports broadcaster and ive made it quite a hobby to do my homework about sports (especially football and soccer) and know as much as i possibly can from the high school levels all the way to the pros!
As for that taunting....yeah...not one of our proudest moments, but you gotta realize that adrenaline a crazy thing and once it takes over before a game, you've most likely lost total control of your mind/actions. After the Nikki Rowe playoff game, the Smithson Valley coaches talked down to us through the coaches meetings with Coach Cherry (rumors were they said that we valley teams were always worthless and not disciplined)The week leading up to the game was filled with lots of trash talk by Smithson Valley players towards us (specifically on MySpace) and how they only expected to steamroll over us (which they did lol). Add all that fire to adrenaline before the game and a few of us players just lost it. Of course we did realize our mistake afterwards and we apologized.
What about during the actual game itself? Was it still going on from both sides?(taunting)
Yes, during the game, TONS of trash talk and taunting (especially of the racist kind) was being thrown around by both sides...but honestly, what football game doesnt have that? Im sure the little virtual players from the Madden games would even throw around crap like that if they could lol.
On to the scrimmage...
The Hawks seemed much improved from last week's disaster and the Redskins looked like they could use some extra work in a few departments. But I still was not satisfied with the performances by either team.
