  1. I agree..that would be the best drive in the world.
  2. You are right JW....but 5 years from now that little girl will not even remember doing that. Now if she says it in the wrong place it serves the parents right. I know a couple of little kids, there mom likes to use some rough language, and it amazes her where they learn it, when they say something.

    RAIN!

    Must be nice...we had a sprinkle storm up here.
  4. A pitcher and catcher are the most important positions in softball. You do have to have a complete team to be competetive, but it all starts in the circle..same way it starts on the mound in baseball. The softball teams that are successful can slap hit, bunt, steal bases...not just it homeruns to win. Monica Abbott is the most dominating softball pitcher ever in the college game. If you UT had not stranded double digit runners last night they would be champs right now. But even great pitchers like Abbott give up a run now and then she has only lost 4 games all season and won 50.
  5. Melton still basketball coach at LA By MAC McLEOD, OCN Sports “Richard is our coach at Livingston Academy and will be staying with us. We have had some issues that we had to work through, but we feel those issues have been addressed and we are now ready to move forward.” With that statement, Overton County Director of Schools Michael Gilpatrick dispelled rumors that have been running wild the past week that Livingston Academy head boys basketball coach Richard Melton had been terminated. Apparently the word got out last Wednesday that Melton met with new Livingston Academy Principal Randy Hankins and came away with the impression that he had been fired. He even notified some of his players that he was terminated, and on Thursday, some players and parents met with Director Gilpatrick to discuss the issue. “First let me say that Coach Melton was never terminated,” Gilpatrick said Monday afternoon, June 4. “I am the one who hires and fires, and I never fired Coach Melton, therefore, he’s not terminated. “We have met with Coach Melton several times over the past months to discuss certain things, and hopefully we now have all that worked out and he knows what we expect of him as the head basketball coach at Livingston Academy. “Coach Melton is a young coach, and from what we have seen of him over the past two years, he will be a successful coach. He’s passionate about the game and wants to do a good job. We appreciate that and try to understand what he is trying to do. “Sometimes that passion has created some issues, but with maturity that will come with the job, things should work out for all concerned.” Gilpatrick went on to add that Coach Melton’s ability has never been questioned, and his win-loss record will not be a factor in his employment at Livingston Academy. “There has already been too much talking about this,” Gilpatrick added. “Perhaps everyone can learn something from this and put it behind us. “Coach Melton and the team left this morning (Monday) for basketball camp, and we look forward to this year’s season. The team has been strong in the past two years, and maybe this year it will be even stronger. “But we must not forget that our main goal here is education, and we want to graduate young people and improve test scores just as much as we want our athletic teams to win games.” Overton County News was unsuccessful in attempts to reach Coach Melton for comment before press time.

    RAIN!

    Sprinkles...sprinkles...I want a nice slow rain for about two days. Bet you could get good money for it in some parts.
  9. I hope that don't do that. I think if they can get Stan Van Gundy I doubt they will make him pay anything.
  10. You gonna need a tick bath, flea bath, and then probably a good soaking in bleach.
  11. He is only under a minor league contract right now. It would be funny if he was unable to make the start Saturday, that they cut him and did not have to pay him a dime of his huge contract.
  12. The way Monica Abbott is pitching Arizona might just want to take the runner-up trophy and go home. But with that being said I think the series will go all three games with UT winning it all.
  13. Vandy is looking good..I think they will take the championship tonight and be hosting the Super Regional at the end of the week.
  14. Think it was time for a change, but I wish he could have gotten his 700th win.
  15. It was such a hard decision for him to leave, but that is a problem when you you leave a place you love, where you have had success. This must be what he really wanted, because his wife was all for it. It meant he would be home more instead of recruiting.

    RAIN!

    If anyone gets any rain I think they should catch some in a jar and keep it. Who knows when you might get more...that way you can be reminded what he looks like.
  17. There was a college player...I want to think from Syracuse that found out she was pregnant during the season and did not tell anyone. She had the baby a few months after season, and she plans on being back to play in the fall. As a coach, I am not real sure how I would handle that.

    Funny but very, very true.
  20. A lightning bolt up her butt.... /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
  21. That is funny....... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ........but its sad exactly how many of people there are that are that dumb.
  22. You did a "Robin Hood"....or at least that is what archers call it....the school I coach at has an archery team and there was an elementary school girl who did that at a competition. The fact that I just found out I made an A in a class I thought I had no better than a C in.
