Sammyswordsman Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 This year we are opening the Excuse Thread to the guys that put out the weekly polls. I am sure @whiteshoes would like that we provided a vehicle for him to excu er explanations about some baffling picks that got exposed right off. At least Whiteshoes put up a poll prior to games. Very gutsy and we appreciated having a poll to criticize. "Some" DLS fans are pissed, and have started blaming the refs, but surprisingly most of the DLS guys have begun to accept these OOS losses and are not bothering to offer "explanations" The South Carolina teams on ESPN were equal to D-2 in So Calif. Not much speed on the field compared to the DLS game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much speed on the field compared to the DLS game. I will start!!!... That was the most Awful and embarrassing officiating I have seen... They gave the game to STA.... That Bogus PI call on STA’s First drive that led to the TD.... And The embarrassing Incomplete pass/Phantom Fumble that led to the FG... That was the 10 points that was the Difference in the game... But the worst thing I saw was calling a Penalty for a fan bumping into a cameraman on the sideline is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen at a Football game... Is there even such a penalty???.. Doesn’t sideline interference have to “Interfere” with the actual game???? WTF is that????....How is the cameraman part of the game????... DLS out hit, out played and way out coached STA... Those Awful Refs took it away from them!!!!... P.S....Don’t worry about the DLS QB having his worst game ever, that had Absolutely nothing to do with DLS losing, it was all the Refs fault!!!!....🤣🤣🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your 14,15,16, all lost. but only #15 was blown out. #16 lost to an unranked team tho. You went out on a limb with them and got burned. The Tiers were unscathed.....of course I have only released Tier 5 and 6 so far. Vanilla Vanilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually there is a sideline warning first. That DLS sideline is ridiculously thin tho. The season ticket holders like it tho cuz they can hear the coaches yelling at their kids. The refs had their hands full with all the opening game mistakes by both teams. Pressure of the speed of the game causes mistakes. DLS seemed to want to prove they can throw the ball, but their passing scheme is basically 1 man routes. Trying to throw is what contributed most to the lostgame for DLS. Although they just got beat by a clearly better team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to know how running into a cameraman is sideline interference with the game... Is the cameraman on the playing field????.... ”Clearly Better”.... I wouldn’t say that... Bigger yes, Faster not so much and Coaching not even close.... STA Coaching was not very impressive.... That was 2 bad calls away from being a 14-14 game....🤣 Man, I am sounding like a fan of “The Devil” now...

That is why the game was somewhat close. DLS had no room for error due to the talent disparity. DLS needed to play an almost perfect game (like the Streak teams would do) to win tonight.

You went out on a limb with them and got burned. DLS lost a competitive game to a top 10 team. That won't hurt them that much. Yes, Cen10 got blown out by MD, but the Monarchs are going to blow everyone else out (except SJB and SFA). Cen10 won't fall that far. As far as PC Central losing to an unranked Hoover, I have to decide whether Hoover should've been ranked to begin with or if I should drop PC Central all the way out. I will probably go with the latter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

181pl Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Armwood over Plant by running clock. Plant is awful this year. No speed, can't tackle, no offensive rhythm. They don't need to make excuse. They are just under talented and soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Gwinnett plays Colquitt at 2:45 today so maybe we'll get an idea of which way that game is going to go afterwards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammyswordsman Posted August 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Quote Report post Posted 3 minutes ago All of this has been said, but it's my .02. 1. As already expressed by everyone, it was a little sloppier than I expected. Early season jitters for both teams. DLS needs to work out some kinks in their somewhat revamped offense...most notably substitutions. That fumble at half was brutal. They'll be alright. 2. Refs were awful. That early PI was bogus...led to a score. The running into the flag on the sideline...led to a score. The "catch and fumble" led to a score to seal it. That said, DLS earned all of those drive-killing procedure penalties. ,588 posts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a joke. Remember the botched fumble at the goal line last year that changed the entire game? #NoExcuses Your fan boy team was beat by a better team. The score would have been worse if STA didn't fumble in DLS territory trying to be cute. STA was CLEARLY better. Your squad had 16 or so penalties, much of which were false starts and 12 men on the field. Total joke. And you make excuses!? Apparently you didn't watch the game like the rest of us. Enjoy #2 in Norcal 😉 PS- Keep capitalizing random letters. It really emphasizes your credibility and education.

The 187 Yards on 17 carries against STA says that he “is” on the same level as Nagata... As soon as Nagata puts up 187 yards on 17 carries against a defense as good as STA, then we will “Know” that Nagata “is” as good as Garret....🤣🤣🤣 Nagata shouldn’t worry about it though... Last year his Brother was dominated by a No Star DB from DLS and he is doing fine at Clemson....🤣🤣🤣 Right @DLS_Spartan ?....🤣🤣🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
