Mount Airy vs East Wilkes Rematch

[buzzcoach]

Daddy Doug MA Bear Historian sent me info saying MA is 7-5 against SMC all time 3-2 over Murphy...1-0 over Robbinsville west Finals....2-2 with Swain.....0-1 Hayesville....1-0 over Cherokee. Met Murphy twice in West finals I think and we're 1-1. 7-4 since 96

 

[buzzcoach]

I think MA showed up in 2nd half and played with some get up very flat in 1st half. This is play offs I think Bears lay the smack down Fri night I really do.

 

[EWCards#1]

Very well possible. I still think EW will have a better outing with the Graham kid.

 

[Griddie]

I don't think Adkins really shut down the game plan in the 2nd half. Personally, I think Wilmoth went away from his game plan, or whatever was working in the 1st half and in the 2nd half started throwing the ball down after down with pressure all night and Mt Airy forced interceptions. Then ultimately just ran away with the game.

This. Wilmoth obviously had a great game plan coming in and kept it close for a half. But in the end Mount Airy just had way too many horses, no matter what the game plan was. Like Phillip Fulmer said one time when asked about how important recruiting well was, ‘You can’t take a rented mule to the Kentucky Derby and expect to win’. If you are outmatched talent wise by a significant amount it really doesn’t matter how great a coach you are

 

[DaBluePrint1]

Not true at all....ask Surry Central...there is no way talent wise that they should have laid a goose egg on yall..a few years back...but..every now and again the sun shines on a dogs azz..sometimes...it's almost a foregone conclusion that MA wins big tomorrow...EW if they can play up to their full potential...can keep it with in 35...if they dont show up..it could easily be 50 or more....MA homefield advantage..bigtime....EW hasn't played MA at all under that Behemoth of a Video Board...they may get StarStruck..here's to an injury free, game..btw EW...you have no room for error..please keep the flags to a minimum...they have killed successful drives down the field....all year long!!!!

 

[sbbbfan]

EW may have the Graham kid back but MA will have several players on field that missed the first game. Hoping for an injury free game on both sides.

 

[buzzcoach]

EW will get.to meet #8 aka Beast Mode. Y'all watch that video before MA comes out pretty.cool. EW.fans you may want to bring ear plugs.

Welcome to the home of the Granite BEARS !

 

[EWCards#1]

Guys you do realize that I'm clearly expecting a terrible butt whipping. No where have I stated ew will win this game nor be close. Yall act like Graham being back isn't going to change anything, but yall haven't saw what we have. Same goes for the players yall didn't have when we played the first time. I'm not having a pissing match with yall on which injured player from the 1st game is a better player. We all know yall are loaded with talent and speed. We all know what to expect tomorrow night.

 

[Bearfan71]

East Wilkes I'm sure will bring there all let's hope for a injury free competitive game thank God this one is on Friday its no fun staying up til 10 when you have to get up at 4 :30 am next day

We're just picking at your posters and not the team. We all know what to expect and any thoughts of Mount Airy embarrassing an ex-Bear coach badly just won't happen.

 

[TD-FridayNight]

According to the weather channel, it looks like a great night for football. Game time temperature in the low 50s and with sunshine all-day and a moon lite night. No rain for the game. Looking for a safe injury free game on both sides of the ball. Go BEARS 🏈 🏈 🏈 ! ! Score prediction MA 55 EW 14, maybe.

 

[REWhitley]

TGIF!!!! This game and all games on Friday nights give that TGIF new meaning. Is it not wonderful that the over whelming majority people on NC Preps would rather have fun talking about, watching and supporting our kids play a great game rather than take part in a lot of the negative things happening in the world these days?

While I hope this game is 50 to 0 Mt Airy, if EW Cardinals come in and gets a 28 to 27 win, the sun will come up tomorrow (ok, maybe in the west rather than the East) and life will go on. Some how us Bear people will get by, maybe we will just hibernate until spring but we will live on.

WELCOME to Mt Airy all Cardinal fans that come tonight.

 

[EWCards#1]

Out of all the places to watch football, I've traveled with EW to several different high schools but have never stepped foot at Mount Airy. Looking forward to the journey over there tonight for the first time and hoping for a magical upset. Good luck to both teams, may it be a injury free night.

 

[buzzcoach]

Rained hard last night and MA men's soccer play a 4 OT thriller to advanced to west.finals of the Charter school invitation. Feild looked tore up a little.

REWhitley, did you play basketball at Mount Airy in the 1990s ? if so I'm pretty sure I know you and your Dad who has an office Downtown.​

My son played Basketball and football at Mt Airy his freshman and sophomore years then transferred to North Surry. He played football in college.
My younger son played soccer and wrestled all 4 years as a Bear. He wrestled in college 4 years.
And I was in the investment business and then H&R Block since then.

[TD-FridayNight]

I thought I knew you. I was a photographer for the News when your son played basketball and came to your office when on the corner of Willow Street. Was your son REWhitley Jr. ? Most locals know me but I don't use my name on here because some of us like to take have fun with others that do the same. Sometimes I can't take it. Getting too old, LOL

 

[REWhitley]

Nice to reconnect and I do remember.

EWCards#1 At Mount Airy, there is also a visitors gate on the visitors side as well as parking.
If you choose not to park on the school campus.
Just Google the football field. And you’ll be able to see it.

You and your son are really great people. You both were so nice and professional to be around. I guess you know I am a completely different and professional person than I am on here at times. I think that is very true about most of the posters on here.

I think that is down Hay street beside an old Hosiery mill. That is the way the visitor buses would go to get to the visitor's fieldhouse.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for in the info!

I hope EW has a better game tonight to give MA some good competition as they move on to the 3rd round. It will also give your next year's team confidence for 2022 but got to pull for the BEARS to move on. GO BEARS 🏈 🏈

His first name is Richard but he has always gone by Alex.

 

[REWhitley]

TD, I agree about the name issues but before I decided to post I carefully thought about it and decided that I would use my name. It requires people (or at least me) to think about what I would say if I were facing the person or group of people. I want to be positive in all that I do and if I were to say something cutting or glib, I want to do it in such a manner that any reasonably smart person could see the humor, or jab, was in jest.

Sometimes I wonder why some on here delight so much in down grading someone else. But then when we have people in the public eye that relish in the hurtful, stupid, even total lies, criminality, etc. I guess it is no wonder that a third of the country thinks it is ok and thinks it is their God given right to share their ignorance and hatefulness with others.

So true and I do know where you are coming from. You have done well by having way more likes than posts. As you said, it is good to reconnect. Go Bears 🐻 🏈 🏈 🏈 🐻 ! !

Tonight at Wallace Shelton Stadium at 7:30 will enter Sandman!

My oldest niece lives in Wilkes county is a kindergarten teacher I believe her kids will go were her husband went Wilkes Central

You might better make plains with a friend or family member to spend the night.

 

[Bearfan71]

You have nothing to worry about

 

[TD-FridayNight]

The count down is on 2 hours & 40 minutes till Friday Night high school football kickoff.

 

[DaBluePrint1]

love the hype..but EW is seriously overmatched. They need to finish the season on a good note.. compete to their potential..if EW can hold MA to less than 44 or if EW can actually score a TD on MA's defense..(starting defense)that would be a good feat.

 

[REWhitley]

The Simmons predictions has Mt Airy a 43 point favorite. That is the third highest, widest margin of all 4 classifications. Hope it is correct, not because I want EW embarrassed, but to help solidify that the Bears are as good as many think. You realize "we" have not played anybody! Everybody says it.

Talk about disrespecting all 11 on our schedule.

But to whip EW again isn't going to gain you any respect as you have already done it once. Not sure what your expecting out of a win tonight?

 

[sbbbfan]

We expect to win and advance. That is the goal this time of year and to keep fine tuning every aspect of the game

I think both teams have all their players back and this is the playoff and we want to see the best out of both teams. Mount Airy won't run the score up on EW. They were pulling starters out last week in the 2nd Qtr once the running clock started. It all depends on how good our 2nd string is to what we score. They did not try to put 75 points up last week. JV quarterback even played. I think everyone may have got to play. If EW is not better than MA 2nd string, that's not running up the score.

Yes as it is for all teams but beating a team by 40 for the 2nd time in a season isn't proving anything to anyone about how good you are.
