Looks like a football town to me! Hope all the Rams fans have done well through the ice storms. I came thru on my way to Madison helping EnergyUnited. There is some pretty country out here.
Went thru Reidsville today

Under normal conditions we could have treated you to the bbq at Short Sugars on your way through town!

I'll take you up on that when things get better.
His nickname was "Soday". Faster player on the team. Hurt his back his senior year.
If it's who I think he is, he was skinny but fast. Seems I remember his nickname was Speedy. Oh well, that's a loooonnnngggg time ago!
I didn't realize the scrimmage still went on. Any reports at all? I would probably assume Rockingham looked a little better
Yes. For some reason, they have new alternate gray uniforms.
As the saying goes, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. So I will not say anymore about spending money on alternate uniforms when the athletic department will make no money this year. I will not say anything about they should have just put black numbers on them and changed the name to SW Rockingham Cougars.
I understand grey is a trend in college and before you say ok boomer, I am gen x. I understand I no longer live in reidsville and do not put as much money in the system, but it makes no sense to me. But it’s just my opinion, and I will be the first to tell you it doesn’t have a lot of weight.
Played with both.....have run into Mike over the years...now lives in Belmont, NC...haven't seen "Speedy" in years...he was the first in a line of brothers who all played at Reidsville and were good athletes...............
I played with both of them, too. I ran into Mike years ago at a reunion. Saw Clay Lemons then as well. I haven't seen Speedy since I graduated.
Maybe, the alternate uniforms will not be worn in every game. I am old school. I am not a fan at all with alternate gray or black uniforms. I enjoy Reidsville football very much and I have always like the blue and gold. The kids in this generation think that weari
played with all 3...Bones (now passed) was 2 years older than me and an end..he graduated in 1966....Jon was 1 year older than me...graduated in 1967 and Phillip (or as we called him "Blub") was my age...good player but he quit playing after our sophomore year....we graduated in 1968.....................
yep I complain when it matters to me. I can think of no reason why reidsville needs gray uniforms. If I didn’t care, it wouldn’t matter if they played in oversized T-shirt’s with sharpie letters. I would not be paying attention to them.
just like a certain nfl coach that has been needing to be fired for years. If he didn’t coach my team, I’d be happy if he stayed around.
