I was wrong though, according to the link, none of the boys had power in their homes when they played the game. In fact, most people living inside the Danville school district had their power restored yesterday or today.

Everyone on NC's team has power ans running water tho...

 

I heard that the Connor family was without power for 3 days???? Didn't seem to bother Jeramie?:laugh:

I'll do you one better, NCC would beat Danville 10 times out of 10 if it was 70 degrees and sunny. Danville wouldn't have looked so undisciplined and they would have looked better coached had they not had to go through the "power outages" that they suffered from last week. That's the only point I was trying to make. At no time did I ever say Danville would win this game, I was simply saying that I wish they could have played under different circumstances and maybe then you would have seen a better Danville team than the one you never bashed.

 

The defensiveness just isn't needed, and I disagree with you. I don't think NCC would beat them 10 out of 10 times. I see Danville as a team very similar to Newport, who beat NCC once this year already. I was just saying the problems Danville had weren't consistent with the excuses you were making.

Yeah they were, you just don't see it. Which is too bad. Adopted Admiral understands exactly what I was trying to say. Everything you said about Danville, you based off of watching them play one game when their lives were in disarray adn they hadn't practiced. Before the Ice Storm, they were arguably playing the best ball of anyone in the 12th region. When you said they look undisciplined and poorly coached, and that NCC would win if it was 70 degrees and sunny, please tell me how I am supposed to accept that when I know what those boys are going through and that regardless of what anyone wants to believe, there was no way NCC was going to get Danville's best game. That was the only point I was trying to make. You can't put a whole team/community through what they had to go through and expect the best of that team. It is unfathomable. Like I said, Adopted Admiral knows exactly what I am trying to say. I am done with this thread, and I hope no community has to endure what a lot of people are still going through in this county. It's a whole lot bigger than a basketball game anyways.

^^^I Definitely know what your saying...

 

 

Once again here is the Link I posted earlier...
