In my opinion the handling of this whole situation will be a watershed moment that will have lasting effects on the Shelbyville sports program. I wasn't there because of work but I watched it filmed from the Shelbyville sideline on social media and it miraculously cuts off before it gets bad and it makes Joaquin look like the aggressor. The game video was deleted from YouTube but if you'd like a better view of what happened you can add me on Facebook and I'd be glad to send you the game footage of it. This could be a nail in the coffin or it could be a turning point for that program and as someone with kids I pray that it's the turning point because those kids who didn't act stupid and those kids sitting in the stands waiting for their turn to be a Dragon deserve better.

People say it's always been like this but I can 100% for a fact tell you it wasn't from 2007 to 2010. But I can tell you the exact moment it started back up. Shelbyville made a hire in 2013 and than man came to Shelbyville and almost instantly just pure hatred seemed to manifest itself on everything Dragon related. The man showed his butt on the field after a game was cancelled do to weather and Tenaha wouldn't make it up the next day because they had a students funeral to attend. Right then I personally decided I hated him and if the Lord sent me to the bad place for it I was fine with it and I still am to this day. It just got worse from there I swear on my children that if you watch the 2015 film you see #1 from Joaquin get hit 75% of the plays he was in regardless of when he had handed the ball off. There was a player who's job it was to plant that kid every play and I promise you he was told to do it. The kid would literally hand the ball off and see his teammate get tackled and begin walking to the sideline to get the next play and BOOM he gets ear holed. And it was celebrated by the vast majority of the people in the visiting bleachers. Then as everyone knows that coach ended up doing something that shocked NOBODY and he was gone but the hatred didn't stop. This is just my opinion and I speak for nobody but my self, This is karma and it's well deserved. I remember all of this and I agree about the coach. He was a lunatic and carried things way too far. After he caught the assault/family violence charge he had to resign. Eventually the charges were dropped and a lot of Sville people wanted him back. To include youth coaches, board members and people from all walks within the community. For this I have no words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen7Dragon Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I know this is the Garrison / Joaquin thread. I will stop with the Sville stuff. I was just responding to some of the comments about the fiasco in Joaquin Friday night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there and it was ugly.. I thought pre-fight that Joaquin was involved in alot more of it than after. It was getting very chippy early but afterwards I didn't see much from Joaquin other than being very physical between the whistle. I thought the coaches did a great job of getting everyone to not retaliate even as Shelbyville got dirtier and dirtier throughout the game. (i.e. pressing down on Joaquin players helmets to get up, sticking fingers in facemasks, cheapshots way away from the ball, etc..) Just a quick watch of the scoring highlights, you can see glimpses. (12 yard line at 0:30, and 10 yard line at 1:54). It went on all game long. https://www.maxpreps.com/tx/joaquin/joaquin-rams/football/media/videos/?videoid=3382f4ff-223c-40ac-aae1-ec4d6641cc81 Bottom line is Shelbyville came in off of whipping up on a private school thinking they ruled the world and got physically manhandled all game and didn't like it. But somehow it is all Joaquin's fault to a lot of folks on Facebook. Thanksfully there are some good folks and fans down there like @Gen7Dragon that could see it both ways. As for this game, I don't think Garrison will match up either. I think Joaquin is the second best team in this district and its not even close. On a normal year (one that doesn't involve the potential state champion in our district), I think Joe has a district champion type team and one of the best in the region. Unfortunately, it is that year and Timpson is that good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others are tough because of who you’re playing. Garrison is the latter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
