Good Lord quit whinning! The film crews show BIG plays regardless of who makes them. They showed highlights of games such as South Cobb scoring (they lost), Brookwood scoring twice (Grayson won), and Milton scoring several times and losing. They simply look for big plays from big names and this kid is going to Tech in the fall. They dont stay at the games more than 20-30 minutes and work with what they have. They showed the Hiram cheerleaders and band and did a good job at telling how Hiram was ranked and rolled to their 6th straight win. No one around here is a Hiram hater. Most people on here including us Raider fans root for the Hornets to win. However, like East faced 4 years ago when this tremendous run began, winning in the first year of success is slow to get respect. Heck East was 6 or 7 and 1 that year and people still jumped on them as flukes. Last year in moving to 5a I bet I heard East is gonna get a wake up call this year a dozen times.
Hiram will have to earn respect the hard way, a week at a time. Hiram has had a weak schedule. They can't help that. The first year East won they did too. Like East you are doing all you can do-win every week and chipping away at the critics. Until you beat the Sprayberrys and Hillgroves respect will be hard to get. it took winning against a good Cherokee and winning in the play-offs that year for people to realize East was for real. I think Hiram is for real, and respect will come. Just dont jump on people for not annointing Hiram with it. Go out and continue to kick butt and you will get peoples attention! I hope you guys go 10-0 and wear out 4aaaa in state. I am not knocking Hiram at all, in fact my heart is with you Hornets. Just take a big breath and enjoy making people give you that respect. It makes it so much sweeter when you get it and it is fun being that "Hiram team that hasnt played anyone". Heck East is 30something and 7 over the last 4 years and the Cobb countians still pray for and predict our demise weekly...

Just like the same people in Cobb (Sprayberry and Hillgrove) say about you guys...South is a good team and that quality win will continue to get you attention. Heck you are ranked in the state top 10!!! Wow that is awesome!
GO HORNETS AND GO RAIDERS!!!
Way to go Hornets, I knew you could do it. You had me scared for a minute, but I knew you would come back strong. But I have one question, which team was supposed to be team of the week? I thought it was Hiram, but this morning on channel 2, they only showed highlights of Ayers and the Spartans, I mean Hiram did win, why wouldnt they show any highlights of their touchdowns, they did have four. They made sure they showed the interception by Ayers and his touchdown, but they didnt show Ayers fumble that led to the Hornets second touchdown within 30 seconds. Not surprising, Hiram still not getting the respect they deserve. Keep it going Hornets, and remember to make your haters your motivators.
