Grapevine Pride!

[dragonfly]

Did any of you other Dragons see the sign that was hung on the In-door field? As if the Dragons needed any more motivation.

Did they also take down all of the signs that the booster club moms put up? Someone called me and told me that. They also said that they saw some kids washing some of the cafeteria windows. I wonder if these are related incidents. Nothing beats the time that Keller tried to burn down the field house.

[ALLIN]

How stupid can some people be? Get ready for tonight, should be good.........now!

[DragonFan]

What happened? I did not hear of any window painting or sign hanging. Could you give details?

I don't know anything, someone just called me and told me almost exactly what I posted above. Maybe I will find out more later

[Sakatha]

So much for me hoping that tonight's game would be a classier showing by GCISD. Apparently they are trying to top CHHS's bs.

I did not think that was possible. The strange thing is that the players on CHHS were probably the classiest team that the Dragons played all year.

[Sakatha]

Oh, I was just refering to the fans.

Ya, the 'game' itself was pretty clean. It wasn't full of cheap shots, and obvious attempts at injury... Which is something we've gotten used to this year.


It's really a damn shame, man. It's pretty obvious that some of the players on these teams have adopted a 'If you can't beat em, hurt em' attitude.

~DnM

[DragonFan]

I believe a lot of that is through frustration! When you have had a good season or run of seasons and you are always getting beat by one team then you tend to be frustrated. It is not unlike Mike Tyson biting Hollyfields ear! Tyson had enjoyed tremendous succsuss and was getting his *** kicked so he flipped out and tried to beat by intimidation. We all know what befell that fine fellow!

[dragonfly]

There was a big sign hanging on the indoor, facing the street, that said "Grapevine Pride." I didn't hear about the window stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if it were true though. Tonight will get ugly. Hopefully the score is the only part that gets ugly and the refs and coaches can keep the other stuff under control.

[DragonFan]

I sincererly hope we do not have the same refs that we have been getting where they call Pass Interferance on Renfro when the other guy has him wraped up and tackled before the ball gets there! The worst refs have been for the Plano East game, and the CHHS game. I am afraid that they may be back for tonights game.

Please don't let us get those guys back. My favorites were the fantom call against Simpson and the double pass interference against Smiter and the Keller db in the endzone. The Renfro one was just rediculous.

[dragonfootballfan]

how about the fifteen yard forward pas.... I mean fumble in the CHHS game or the fifteen minute wait for a call in the PESH

[DragonFan]

I am not one to every want to cast dispersions on the fine gentlemen who do officiate the games, however, it does seem that there are a lot of, shall we say quetionable, calls trying to slow down the Dragons.

FYI I saw a lot of that in the SGP/Irving Mac game. They didn't even point the right way half the time. They would point at SGP and it was against Irving Mac and the other way around. The players would just stand there because they would get excited only to have it go the other way. TERRIBLE
stripes that night. Also, ET's back got an interference last week 2 feet in front of the receiver...right in front of us...no way did he interfere. But I hope that no ref decides the big games by making really bad calls.

[dragonfly]

I can handle a few mistakes by the "human" officials, but it sure seems that our last few games have really been bogged down by the number of penalties on both sides. I don't like when the officiating interrupts the flow of the game. It's not good when you are looking over the field expecting a flag after each play. Not saying most calls were good or bad, just saying it feels like the flow of the game has been severley interrupted lately by the number of flags and the amount of time it takes to make a call.

[southlake thug]

Yeah G-Vine showed their true trash today by painting ridiculously pointless phrases like "RenHo" instead of Renfro all over the school windows. Classic Grapevine.

[drgnbndfan35]

Yeah, I'm at school right now, there's red writing all over our cafeteria and front door windows. Just a lot of crap about 'Hey I'm rich too!' and stupid 1st grade pictures...really unclassy. I know people from Grapevine, and they aren't like that at all, but a small group of them really gave them a bad name today. Grapevine-SLC used to be a really intense rivalry, but a rivalry with class. All this was was a group of punks who tried to beat us the only way they could...last night while none of us were here. Grapevine fans may get a laugh out of it, but Carroll will remember it tonight, and for years to come, that I can guarantee.

[Dds115]

Don't forget about them paintballing at the sign with the football team's achivements. They also rubed an unknown substance on the field house. I hope they get caught, they have a security camera outside so maybe they saw them on it??

[dragonfootballfan]

This is still not near as bad as when some kids from Keller tried to set the field house on fire. That really was hillarious

[gritty52]

I'm with yaw on these bad ref's. Most of our bad calls and there have been some "humdingers" have been from these Dallas chapter ref's. When we played out in Tyler there were some horrible calls too! I believe correct me if I'm wrong if we play out of Tarrant co. we get Dallas ref's if that is the county we are playing in. Guess who most likely will be reffing the playoffs
at Texas Stadium?? You Tarrant Co. folks know that the sherriff Anderson is on a crew and don't do to bad a job. :D :D

i also heard those gpvine punks wrote stuff on windows..and get this..spelled grapvine wrong!!! hahaha

they didnt seem to be to bad at the game..what the heck was with their fans running to our fence and back after their first td?

yes, today is no diffrent, why do we get stuck with such crap?? i was standing on the sideline, and after our 2nd td, coach dodge was chewing out one of the ref's, telling him to call crap and something about a face mask or something

i hope so to, whats next, we need to build a huge gate/fence thing around all carroll things so people dont screw with them..i like the run through banner we had today i dont know the exact words, but this is the basis of it.."Paint comes out, but a loss doesnt come out of your record" something like that..

[dragonfootballfan]

they tried to burn down field house?? explain please
that basically was it. The night before the game some kids from Keller tried to burn down the field house.

[dragons08]

and failed misserbly?

[Dds115]

well I would just like to say that the kids that did stuff to our school were caught and got it pretty big trouble. I'm not going to name names but they did get caught. :cool:

[slcdragons]

They were saying at the game last night that the GHS kids were nabbed by noon on Friday. A Rumor going around also was that these same kids rubbed feces on the CSHS fieldhouse. The link is to a picture of the run through banner that the Dragon cheerleaders made. Its kinda blurry, but I typed on the web page what it says.

http://mikegarvey.textamerica.com/?r=3563263

[Dds115]

One of the kids got a call on his cell phone from the pricipal saying to come to the school that they needed to talk. Kid eventually game names after a threat and now they are in trouble.

[slcdragons]

Having two former CISD principals as the leaders of CHHS & GHS I'm sure played a role in the dealings w/ each (CHHS & GHS respective student bodys). I know Robin Ryan had a pow wow w/ the students at CHHS after they were booing during the playing of the CHS alma mater song, and some of the t-shirts they(CHHS Students) were wearing at the game.

im glad, how many were there?

[dragons08]

more importantly...to have him call you on your cell...

[drgnbkr]

There is a growing problem at the Grapevine Stadium with both sides intermingling in the parking lot and the merged entrances & exits...there were a lot of idiot (mostly HS age) G vine fans cussing & whining about the result in the middle of large groups of Carroll fans, who for the most part, shook their heads and tried to ignore them...there will be a problem someday...

[dragons08]

how would he even get his cell number?

when you were all waiting for the shuttle busses?? i walked back and forth between that line, helping load the trailors with the speaker stuff, and their drill team said stuff to us, i ignored them, i saw quite a few carroll fans turn around look and just ignore them, im glad how much class we have, where we can be able to just ignore them!! like you said there WILL be a problem, thank god our school does the shuttle bus thing

[reed35]

i remember 3 kids from Richardson burned the field in Plano in 1981. They were caught and the parents supposedly had to pay for new turf.

Also, bad officiating is all over high school football. Something should be done.

[dragons08]

i didnt want to start a new thread due to the complaints id get from nonslc fans, so i'll just post it here. id like to say thank you to the many slc fans that complimented us after the game. it was nice to be complimented about our playing, but also some other things. after everygame we clean up stands, one of our mottos is "make it cleaner than it was before we got here", and we have people go and pick up all the garbage and mess we left behind, we got a ton of compliments about how we do that, thank you. also compliments on how were respectful, that means A LOT! i just wanted to say thank you dragon fans for the support and compliments you guys give us week in and week out!

i am getting pissed off about the crap calls we are getting, lets hope come playoffs we wil have a little better refs

I hope that they press criminal charges against them. I don't want them to just be punished for school. I want them to go to jail if they are of age. Atleast they should spend the night. I have not lived in Southlake my whole life, and where I am from nothing gets vandalized, because if it did they would be met with a little vigilante justice.

yea, i hope we use them as a lesson not to mess with our stuff! people need to respect other peoples items

[Dds115]

There were 3 or 4 of them. They were threatened with 180 days of jail, as the (at least one) are of age. I do not believe that they will get it though. But they will get a heafty fine.

lets lock those **** up fine em, and prove a lesson to all those kids who think their cool "dont f**k other peoples stuff!"

[DragonFan]

The sign on the indoor would have been a nice touch for harmless rivalry prank. Painting on the windows and paint balling the sign are criminal mischief that should be procecuted. I think that the kids should be forced to do community service to the Dragons such as making them run with the flags at the Football games. Serving as trash pickup detail after the games, etc.

i dont wnat those losers running with our flags!! cleaning up yes sounds good to me, maybe we can use them as dummies, practice knockng the snot out of them?

[DragonFan]

Maybe they can hold the run through banner right in the middle on the ground level so that when the Dragons run throgh the banner they would be running through them!

As a side note. That actually happened at the last Carroll Middle School game where one of the cheerleaders was in the middle of the banner because she was not yet set when the team went through the banner. She was knocked out cold by one of the guys as he was coming through the banner. She was down on the field for about 8 mins while they took care of her. It was one of the funniest yet scariest moments I have every witnessed. She was alright but I think a lession in paying attention was learned!
