High School band

NOBODY said Band was a sport! nearsports/doh.gif

However, When the football team plays, SO DOES THE BAND! That's why I built a forum for them! If you don't like it, then don't look at this forum! D@MN! Some of you people are just not happy unless you are bi+ching about something! I've had pretty much all of that I'm going to take! If you don't like it here, LEAVE!

#1. We have a profanity filter. If a word is not allowed here, it's in that filter. If you use symbols to circumvent the filter (example: $hit), your post will be deleted, and you will be warned. If you fail to heed this warning, you will be banned.

Grim you sure have been violating this rule a lot lately. You should lead by example, d@mn it!

As a "former jock", I was guilty of making fun of band members. But as I aged, I grew to regret that childish action.

No, band is not a "sport" in the purest form, BUT go to a game without any bands, then go to a game with a strong band, such as West Memphis or Wynne, and you will see that Bands are an important part of sports.

Can you imagine a Razorback or Indian football game with no band playing when the team came on the field, or scored a touchdown?

Be sure to check out Nettlteton's Big PHAT Band for 2008.

Congrats to the Pocahontas High School Band who finished 4th overall out of 23 (and 1st in their classification) competing bands at a recent competition in Petosi, Missouri. nearsports/clap.gif
