With over 70 players dressed, does this mean they move up to 6A where they should be?

LOL. The class designation is based on ENROLLMENT. The Fact that the Community supports the Pirates 100% and they start football seriously in Elementary School, is the reason the Pirates are in the Top 5 each year. By the way, South Pittsburg has 3 Redlights. So sorry you are that jealous.

Big shoutout to Sequatchie County baseball this weekend. Enjoyed meeting their team parents and watching good baseball. Has nothing to do with South Pitt but I hope some SC folks are tuning into this thread.

I guess they don’t play much soccer in SP! Jones is a heck of a Coach with an impressive resume. With all the talent they have down there I assume they will stay in the top 5.

I haven't got to any Indians baseball games in a few years. I've read in the paper they are having a rough year but apparently the middle school teams have done well over the last couple of years so maybe things will look up.

My ex-wife of many moons ago was from South Pitt. Sounds like they added a red light. maybe two. If we make it far enough in the playoffs, we usually end up getting curb stomped by them or Meigs. Well, she was from Kimball and went to SP. Other end of road basically. I'm sure he's long passed away, but an older gentleman at her church owned that fireworks plant that was in SP.

WTF?

You still live there? I got to know a few people, but it's been a really long time. Late 80's, early 90's last time I 've been on or around that exit.

I doubt it. No reason for South Pitt to drop the LONGEST Running Series in the State! Of course, JASPER hasn't been very competitive of late. LOL

Split time with Mobile Al. Most all my family still in South Pitt and surrounding area. It was the BEST place on Earth to grow up.

Most of the people I knew there went to SP Church of Christ and/or worked at Lodge. The preacher was a great guy back then. Ex-father in law (deceased while married to daughter) was a manager at Lodge. Robert Chambers and wife Whitney. He's also passed.

Not to flood you with this but I found another Chattanooga station with a little video about this. I get the "snitched on us" angle but that rivalry game has been around forever.

Longtime South Pittsburg-Marion County high school football rivalry is over

THAT doesn't make a Lick Of Sense. NADA. And I'm not even gonna read it; it's so asinine. I remember when we lost rivals Bridgeport & Stevenson; never felt the same. But JASPER? Someone's NUTS.
