Bristol already behind schedule (updates added)

[Volador]

The owner of the contracting company, Chad Baker who is on the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission with me said that he could finish the work in a couple days. There will be no delays.

Ummm, sorry to inform everyone that the Battle at Bristol will be played at Bluff City High School field down the road.....

Of course there will not be a delay - we are playing on grass, peat moss, chewing tobacco, hay or a combo of the above. This is not baseball where games are rescheduled!

Not ready until there are some orange and white checkerboards!

Omg! Those people look tiny in the pic on the website.
Coaches aren't going to be able to see the game from the sidelines.

No way it's a result how cameras take pictures.
