Dickey throws a fit...
Good job Tri-Cities, way to step it up and beat Touchet! In my book, you played a quality game and handed it to the Indians, fair and square. Enjoy your victory, you earned it!!
I am actually and admirer of Coach Dickey and I think he has done a great job there in Touchet. But, this is a little over the top. Perhaps I disagree with the pass play, but this is 8-man ball and lots can happen. I mean geez, Touchet had the lead in the third qtr. It's not like it was a blow out... then a couple of quick scores and TCP is up by two, Two, TWO touchdowns. This is not a big lead in 8-man ball... Geez Dickey, how many 45-0 games have you won?? So, is TCP supposed to now let up on defense and just allow Touchet to score? Would you? So what if there is only a minute to play... Does that mean the TCP team should just roll over and let the Indians come within a score, just to give them a little pride... and really, what kind of pride would that be? How would any team feel if somebody just gave you a td out of sympathy... poor poor Touchet... they got beat and we are supposed to feel sorry for them.
You know me, I am no fan of the private schools, but this is just a sorry excuse by the Touchet coach to try and belittle another team for beating them... too bad Dickey, you lost - take it like a man and lose with some grace and dignity.
