Gregg Brandon...lacks class
But form your own opinion. Maybe some BG fans can give a different viewpoint. Here is what happened before the game. BG's team enters the field from the North endzone, coming out of their nice new lockers. The visitors (Miami) enter the field from the South endzone, still using the old lockers under the stadium. BG came out first, ran through their band, and then headed downfield into the South endzone, crossed the goalline, and stood in the endzone as Miami was coming out single file, jogging toward the goalpost where the cheerleaders were waiting with the Flag to lead the team onfield. As Miami players were jogging past the BG team, the Falcons were yelling and taunting (according to those who were sitting down in that corner) the Miami players. The Refs woke up to what was happening and a couple of them came sprinting from midfield and tried pushing the BG players back. The Miami players just ignore them,jogged on past one by one as the BG players were yelling at them. When all the players came by, the BG players turned and ran back to the bench, with a few of the players stepping on the big Miami flag which the cheerleaders were holding, waiting for the BG players to get out of the way so that Miami could take the field. I don't really know what Brandon was trying to accomplish, but I do know that Miami was more focussed early in this game and played with more inspiration than they have early in a game all year. There are certainly some teams that would have reacted to BG and started a fight right there in the endzone, but Miami players just ignored BG. To me, that was a pretty classless move by Brandon, and it made the victory over BG much sweeter for us. BG fans, am I missing something? Do you do that every game?
