What a game....they tried to give me heart attack at the end though!!!!!!!!!!!!

and how bout our band! What a great halftime show. Mrs. Green has really turned the band around. Yes, I know without football, there wouldn't be a halftime show. We have alot to be proud of this year!

#7.1 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 09:39 AM

Our band needs to crank it up a bit during the game! I know there are limits, yet we were out classed by putnams band when they hit the bleachers to pump up the crowd. It seemed like the crowd was a little flat in second half. If band would play, atmosphere changes.

#7.1.1 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 04:08 PM

We would like too. However, Coach Strickland told us to be quiet!

#7.1.1.1 SMB on 09/26/11 at 07:55 AM

thats probably because during the playoff game last year the band got a very costly penalty in the 4th quarter because they were playing while the game and plays were being ran..it probably wouldn't have been a problem but the refs had already warned the band previously.

I personally have no problem with the band playing

#8 cats on 09/24/11 at 08:15 AM

So much for that trash talk, eh, Putnam?
Trouble is, you gotta back the talk with action.
Go Trojans!

What has happened to our band. They are AWESOME!

#10 recruit. on 09/24/11 at 11:06 AM

The entire defensive line played their butts off! Great game 51, 45, and 79!

Georgia, the fourth best team in the State behind Georgia Tech, Lamar County, and Georgia State!!! Life is Great! :)

#12 Proud Trojan for life!!! on 09/24/11 at 05:38 PM

Great game Trojans as usual I have been to all the Trojans game this year and I've notice a trend, since Bleckley county when we are ahead we tend to lay down a little giving the other team a chance to come back, the score from Bleckley, Morgan, or Putnam does not reflect what a blow out those game were other newspapers write these games up as near losses for the Trojans when actually the Trojans led the entire time and may had a few penalties or bad plays calls that let the other team back end but film doesn't lie and you guys are a great football team. We don't have a great #1 player like Morgan and Putnam did because our whole team is #1 continue on with your great season!!!

#13 Anonymous on 09/24/11 at 08:19 PM

Let's give the offensive line some credit those guys hav the hardest part

#13.1 Synonymous on 09/25/11 at 12:24 PM

You're right. The offensive linemen do all the dirty work down in the trenches and rarely ever get their names mentioned. So here's to the great job that #78 Michael Bannister, #60 Tanner Korb, #58 Jantzen Honeycutt, #55 Deontae Barnes and #68 Johntavious Walker have done this season. Keep it up men. Take us all the way!

#14 Pirate Dad on 09/24/11 at 09:12 PM

Come on across potatoe creek because we gonna kick a Trojan or should I say bust a Trojan!

#14.1 Trojan dad on 09/25/11 at 08:37 AM

Only time will tell. Let's remember it's all about the kids having fun. However, I'm ready for some FOOTBALL! And we do the butt kicking.....

Pike County doesn't have to worry about a pass defense verse Lamar.. Can Lamar pass?

The difference in Putnam and Morgan County games was Tyler Scandrett. Way to go Scanman.

According to the AJC

The State Ranking for football is as follows:
Class AA

1. Buford (5-0)

2. Calhoun (4-0)

3. Carver-Columbus (3-1)

4. Lovett (3-0)

5. Greater Atlanta Christian (4-0)

6. Brooks County (3-1)

7. Elbert County (4-0)

8. Cook (3-1)

9. Fitzgerald (3-1)

10. Dublin (3-0)

Is the "DOME TALK" a bit premature?

#15.1.1 Anonymous on 09/28/11 at 06:06 PM

A little bit further down, 12th on the state AA list and 1st in the 4AA region: Lamar County Comprehensive High School. As of 2011, this school has more spirit and athleticism than ever before. Unless you want to coach and/or star on the Trojan football team, why don't you just let them have their moment?

come on people we gotta make some noise at the home games

#16.1 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 08:25 AM

We need noise at away games, too!!

#16.2 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 04:26 PM

Flat crowd... Band not playing.... no one yelling, sounds like were losing. Go to other high school football games and it is noisey, band plays, and people are excited. Shows you we really do not have an understanding of how the crowd can impact a Football game.

You need to go sit close to the 50 yard line. It gets crazy down there!

i don't know where you sit or what game you were at but the lower section was crazy crunk friday night.sit around the 50 you'll see,or just look for that crazy guy!!

beatdown?? who has won the past 2 years???oh yeahh.. GO LAMAR!

#17.1.1 Anonymous on 09/26/11 at 07:28 AM

You are correct. However, Pike won the two years before that. Since 2004 Pike and Lamar have played 7 times. Pike has won 4 and Lamar 3. Friday should be a good game.

#17.1.1.1 M.S. on 09/26/11 at 07:58 AM

Can't remember exactly what it is, but I do believe its something like Lamar leads the series 21-7.

#18 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 10:33 PM

yeah nothing is premature 50% of doin something is beliving and that dublin team Struggled against putnam and we was up 24-0 until we let up on them nothing is premature and that Bleckley team loss by 3 to dublin and we pretty much handle Bleckley

#19 Anonymous on 09/25/11 at 11:17 PM

Is everyone serious about the band? When they are actually playing their instruments, it is a mess musically. When on the field in order to showboat, they spend too much time playing toward the end zones instead of toward the crowd. Can't hear it with so few members playing. Now if a dance crew holding instruments is what excites you, then you've found it, but don't call them a good marching band. Call it what it is.

#19.1 Anonymous on 09/26/11 at 07:39 AM

They are not a Marching Band. They are a show band. They could not go to any competition and win. All of this dancing is nice. However, they are losing musicianship. No trophy's or anything to show.

#19.2 M.S. on 09/26/11 at 08:01 AM

It is what it is and it is highly entertaining. Did you not see that split? U know!

#19.3 BAND MEMBER on 09/26/11 at 11:59 AM

It's funny that you would say that we aren't a marching band considering the fact that the etire first half of our show primarially consist on to DOWN the field drills, designed to entertain our fans visually and musically-- as all MARCHING bands should. The second half of our show is designed to feature our auxillary and to entertain the audience furthermore by engaging them is popular tunes and dance routines. And Unless you have expirience with a traditional style marching band and you have recieved 2 degrees in the area of music. I think it would be safe to conclude that you're pretty much ignorant to the subject of MARCHING bands, and I'm sure many would agree.

#19.3.1 Anonymous on 09/26/11 at 12:57 PM

That is not marching. Maybe too Black people. GET REAL!

#19.3.1.2 BAND MEMBER on 09/26/11 at 01:52 PM

Take a look at Ohio State, Michigan State, etc. The ORIGINATORS of traditional style marching. Race has nothing to do with it! But hey, all good things, have haters--like you! L-C YOU KNOW!!!!

I am the poster of the original line 19, and line 19, and 19.3.2, but had NOTHING to do with 19.3.1. I agree that race has nothing to do with it and the poster of 19.3.1 should stay out of the conversation.

First of all you WILL NOT cross the line with my BAND DIRECTOR or anyone that takes time out of their life to keep us KIDS uplifted. You're the person sitting behind the computer basically wasting you're ADULTHOOD bringing down us kids and the work that we put into the show to make the crowd happy. TAKE YOUR ... back home during the 2nd half and watch some t.v. for 20 minutes then come back sweetie. Not only do black people give us a standing ovation but the white people do too! GET A LIFE, MOVE THE HELL OUT of LAMAR COUNTY if you do not have the SPIRIT! Have a nice day, boo! (:

I have over the years had plaenty of involvement with marching bands at the highest level. I have worked with the Fayette County marching bands (7 grand championships, 16 Drumline championships) Lagrange High school (4 grand championships, 3 drumline) Newnan (Several grand championships) and a few others. I know marching. I am far from ignorant on the subject. You can call some of it marching if you want to, it's just not that good. The part of the "show" that people like is just "dancing." That's o.k. just call it what it is.

#19.3.2.1 Anonymous on 09/26/11 at 03:07 PM

Who cares what you think you know about marching bands it is for entertainment, how dare you talk about Mrs.Green, Mrs. Fletcher and the hard working kids that are trying to do something positive they put in alot of hours away from their families so that they can perform,what the hell are you doing besides complaining go back to Fayetteville, Newnan and where ever else because The Trojan Band is Superior--- YOU KNOW!!!!

#19.3.2.1.1 Anonymous on 09/27/11 at 08:43 AM

Guys, I was in the band back when Mr. Bell was the B.D.. I used to get upset with our home crowd because the did not appreciate all the hard work it took to put together a show and learn music each week. The crowd only responded when we tried to play music from the radio. Most people don't want to here a real "marching Band" sound. They like that dancing with sunglasses or something flashy like that. I have been to many band competitions, and only the exibition bands like T.W. Josey danced like the were at the club.. It seems that this is a no win situation for the band: If they perform a traditional show, the crowd does not like it. Now if they do a club show, people still complain..

#19.3.2.2 anon on 09/26/11 at 06:18 PM

If you are all that then push your lazy butt away from the keyboard and go offer your "plaenty of involvement" experience to the band director!

#20 Lamar on 09/26/11 at 07:52 AM

Good job to all the players, coaches and band members. I enjoyed the game.I like seeing the fans in the game. Can't wait till next Friday. Everyone go and get in the game so we can bring another win home.GO TROJANS!!!!!LOVED THE BAND PUT ON A GOOD SHOW FOR THIS WEEK.

#21 THOR on 09/26/11 at 09:15 AM

Word out of Zebulon is that the Pike folks have already sold tons of tickets and plan to fill both sides of the stadium before the Trojan fans even get there so go early and in abundance and get ready to get loud and shake down the thunder. Tailgate in their parking lot and when we win victory parade around their square on the way home. GO BIG BLUE!!!

#21.1 SMB on 09/26/11 at 12:31 PM

heck yeah I am game for tailgating in their parking lot...I think everyone should be down for this like a flat tire

I was being serious about tearing down their side...

LETS START A RIOT!!!!
BOOOOOM!!!!!

#21.1.1 Anonymous on 09/26/11 at 02:55 PM

Im all about having fun and cheering for your team. I love to get excited for our communit yand school, however, lets not get redneck on them. Lets treat their campus with class and respect. Yell and scream all you want, but violence? Whats the point? Class and dignity, like our team shows on the field!

#21.1.1.1 SMB on 09/27/11 at 07:46 AM

I may have said I was serious but I'm not gonna do anything stupid,but if the Pike people are planning to sit on the Lamar side then they better be ready to hear some good ole fashioned battering and bantering,if that leads to them getting pissed off,then I can assure you Lamar side will be ready!!!!

#21.1.1.2 M.S. on 09/27/11 at 08:23 AM

Haha this guy actually thinks you want to riot and cause violence. People on bville.com takes stuff way to seriously.

Now, if those ragged bleachers break on us it won't be our fault, or maybe it will. Regardless, I will not have a voice at the end of the game.

LC is in the ship sinking business, and business is BOOMING!!!

good job guys but walter how bout the middle school football team they have killed every team they played and they are 4---0 you give the softball team coverage these guys are the future they would like to be recognized also

#22.1 just you on 09/27/11 at 07:19 AM

There is a nice article on the middle school football team every week in the print edition of the paper. Stop being a cheapskate and put your quarters in the box and buy one and read all the news (and sports) that is news. There are only tidbits on here.

#23 Anonymous on 09/27/11 at 12:07 PM

Why all this bickering about the band? Big Blue is about to play the Battle of Tater Crick for supremacy in the region. I think the band and cheerleaders and announcer at home games and everyone involved do a fantastic job of showing spirit in their own way. I wish everyone at the game this Friday, when the Trojans make a first down, would yell in unison "FIRST AND TEN LAMAR"!!! The bottom line is, if there wasn't a FOOTBALL GAME on Friday nights, where would the band play or who would the cheerleaders cheer for? It's a school and community thing. Let's all get behind the team because this is going to be a special year!

Go west on Hwy 18 til you smell it then west on Hwy 19 til you step in it.

#24.2 bobo on 09/29/11 at 06:53 AM

Take Hwy 18 from Barnesville to Zebulon. Go to the second light and take a left. Go about 2 miles or so, the school and field are on the left.

Pike will easily counter the speed and athletism of Lamar's athletes with strength and knowledge. Pirates players far more intelligent. Pike 38 Lamar 12
