Holton High School's football team will have to cancel its Week 8 matchup against North Muskegon due to a lack of depth....

quote:
"We were already low number-wise, and then we have a game Friday and get banged up pretty bad in that one,” Moore told MLive. “We lost our second-string quarterback to a concussion and our original starting quarterback isn’t even back yet either. We also lost some other kids to injuries, so we are down to two available upperclassmen on our roster right now. We have 13 total kids who could potentially play right now and putting that many underclassmen up against teams who are going to be primarily 17 and 18-year-old kids wouldn’t be safe for them."

I don't know if it's worse to be the guy that has to originally report this or the guy who thought it made sense to post it on here.

We won the 6 man flag football city (pop. 100k) championship with a total of 7 guys. Suck it up pansies, haha.

The team West Monroe played a few weeks ago had 22 players and 2 coaches. They had to use WM’s trainer, two kids from the local Jr High as water boys and part of the student section went to their side to give them some fans/someone cheering for them. Apparently they had more players when the game was scheduled, but that’s what they showed up with.
