How unappreciative. I am in the press box every game. The sports director from East Ky. Broadcasting, Andrew Joyce, personally helped the Russell radio crew get on the air. The line was there the whole time,but it was not labeled properly and it was at the other end of the press box. It did take too long to find it, but it was found with the help of Andrew Joyce. Please tell the whole story and not bits and pieces. BTW, I know for a fact that radio equipment for cell, or any other way to transmit, would have been provided by EKB, had it come to that. I also know that most radio stations send backup plans for their broadcasters, such as cell phone equipment, should the original plans not work out.

I called Andrew and made a desperate plea for help. The other 2 radio guys could have cared less if we had any problems or not. The AD who assured me everything would be ok wasn't there and everyone else in the Press box was just shrugging their shoulders.

In 2004 we had the same problem, plus we got kicked outside and treaded extremely Rude. No one from the school wanted to help. My partner at the time said "we should just pack up and leave" before the game even started.

I had to run 60 feet of extension line and use a calling card on someone elses phone line. They had a booth but didn't show up.

No thanks to the staff at Belfry High School. Just to Andrew Joyce.

If you want details I got em.

Additionally, over 6 seasons Belfry is the only place we had this bad a problem.
