Notice the blurb at the end of the article about two of the arrested players.

[salisburye]

As a former player from Salisbury's team who still attends the university, please don't comment on a situation you know nothing about. It's not always your actions that get you in trouble, sometimes it's just the color of your skin. Let's just say most of those guys were innocent and had nothing to do with the situation and WILL be back on the field and roster.

Sorry for those of you that take offense to another posting about this -- I'm sorry, I just can't let this comment go.  I read the article and saw some of the pictures of the mugshots of the people involved.  Lets just say this doesn't appear to be a "color of your skin" issue... and any non-biased observer can see that by viewing the photos of each person that was arrested. 

Another thing... most teams would suspend or kick off the team, players who are even involved in situations where a police department calls for assistance from 6 other agencies. 

I commend Sherman Wood for taking action right away.   Hopefully the players involved are accepting the appropriate level of responsibility unlike the poster I've responded to.  FYI, its nearly impossible to get out of disorderly conduct charges that result from a fight in a parking of a bar. 

Good luck to the rest of the year, Salisbury fans.  Nice win last weekend. 

Again...like I said before...please don't comment on something you know absolutely nothing about...and don't believe the media. I mean the first reports on the local Salisbury news was that a brawl broke out between Salisbury and Newport News players in the bar  , so you know to take everything they say with a grain of salt. Anyways The players that didn't do anything have been back at school and will be back on the field shortly.

Let us know when you here anything about the injured player.

He was ok and rode home with the trainer and our former coach

nnasid,

Oh yay!!    That is REALLY good news!  Thanks for the update.  It is hard to see something like that happen.

I spoke with him today and he told me it was from a hit by his own teammate 
Couple coaches said they were rattled to look his way, but he's doing fine.


Now we need Wesley to put the hammer on Webber this week  (Webber at Apprentice November 1)

Yeah, there were 3 defenders that hit each other when attempting to tackle a Wesley Tight end.  They ended up taking eachother out and he escaped.   

I'm sure Wesley will do what it can for you and Webber International.

nnasid, glad to hear that the young man injured on saturday is doing well.  it is never good to see the ambulance come on the field.  you have a scrappy team and they gave wesley all they could handle in the first half.  good luck the rest of the year.

Looks like Halloween weekend will provide another great game between the Gulls and Wesley.  Salisbury looked good over the weekend, even if the competition was weak.  Wesley will certainly be favored in this game.  Beavers will be a headache.  But if my Gulls can win the Special Teams game; we'll have a thriller.  We have to take care of Becker first, and I hope the team isn't looking ahead even though I am. 

Go Gulls

[XSUGull]

I agree with you GOLDPRIDE; Halloween weekend should be another great game between Salisbury and Wesley. If the last two years are any indications of how this year's game will be it should be a classic.

Both SU and Wesley have strong teams this year and both lost a game they probably should have won. However, if the birds and wolves don't take care of business this weekend the game might not carry as much importance. SU should roll over Becker and Wesley should dominate Webber International.

The teams might not be able to look ahead to November 1, but the fans certainly can.

[Teamski]

I know I will be requesting another day of leave from work to go see the game.  Oh yeah I will!

We'll lets open up the Betting.  Any Spreads yet? 

[XSUGull]

I'll start the over/under at 45 points.

I'll wait til next week.....   But remember one thing, Wesley defends Salisbury's O better than anyone 

[wesleydad]

hey all, leaving for fla thursday afternoon.  landing in orlando, almost chose tampa bay when we booked over month ago, would have been fun to be in the world series town.  oh well, if all goes well and i know that is a big if when flying, we should be at the hotel bar by the middle of the game.  plan on a trip to epcot on friday to enjoy the beer, wine, and food festival that is going on there.  this is weird for me since i am a teacher and never take off from school, some other teachers are in shock.  gotta do what you gotta do when your boy is a senior.  found out that webber plays at a high school field so that could be interesting, but it is florida so the field will likely be nice, not sure if it is turf or not.  webber seems to be struggling according to the website and i expect wesley to take care of business.  i doubt they will get caught looking ahead to the salisbury game.  wife is taking the lap top so i will post with some info if i get any.
