I will be there for the great tasting Big Chic fried chicken and to get the Bear's autograph on my 3 volume box set. I also heard the legendary clock keeper Travis McKissack will be there autographing his new book, "WHEN MILLISECONDS COUNT--KEEPING THE CLOCK-KEEPER ON YOUR SIDE ". Here is an excerpt from the New York Times book review on T-Mac's hot new book: Basketball is a game of spirited rallies and fabulous finishes, truly a game where every second counts, where the very rules of the game have been drawn to help teams mount late charges and come from behind to win. With shot clocks and three-point shots, no lead is safe until the final buzzer has sounded. Drawing from every level of the sport -- junior pro, middle school, and high school, men's and women's basketball -- this book will put you in the middle of the fast-paced, heart-stopping action that can only be experienced as a clock-keeper. See you all Saturday!

That was a great move by Tyler. I would like to replay it for those who couldn't see it. Okay, it was the 4th quarter, about 3:43 left in the game. Giles County was up by 38 points. Coach Holt was gonna pull out the starters but Tyler waved him off and told him he was gonna stay in to dunk one more time. Holt sat down and nodded his head. Smith stole the ball from one of Lewis County's freshmen and then went down and dunked over another freshmen who is 5'6". He charged into the kid but the ref called a block. I think he missed his free-throw. Great sportsmanship from Classie Freddie Blassie, aka Coach Holt, for leaving in his starting 5 over halfway thru the 4th quarter with a 38 point lead and playing against Lewis County's freshman squad. That shows a lot of class.

1. Cannon Whitby - one of the greates scorers in TN history (w/o the 3 pt. line) 2. Jimmy "Snap" Hunter - A true scoring machine 3. Trenton Hassell - Tremendous all around player 4. Albert Ellison - made the game look easy, couldn't be stopped 5. Tony Harris- most explosive guard to ever play in TN Honorable Mention: Someone I thought most people had forgotten about but I see has been mentioned on here, Larry "White Lightning" Keltner. He was a hard-nosed, tenacious forward, and one of the mid-state's all-time best defenders. During his 4-year career at Hay Long High school under Tennessee Coaching Legend WC Johnson he represented the epitome of the blue-collar basketball star. The dark-haired, rugged-looking Keltner roamed the hardwood with a determined grimace, a set jaw, and a jersey drenched with perspiration. Rival players knew they were in for a hard night's work when they faced him. After graduation, colleges everywhere beckoned, but Keltner decided to join the Navy and fight the communists in Vietnam. He was recently honored at a Veteran's Day Program in Hohenwald for his services and sacrifices made on behalf of his country.

Uhhh, here tha schedule fo Friday: 3:30 - Lady Raydas vs. Sumatown Eagus 4:45 - Raydas vs. Harput Injuns 6:00 - Coughmun vs. Nu Prospekt Lady Tygas 7:15 - Nu Prospekt vs. Cheetum Co.

Yo, Yo, Yo. Dis ought to be a reel good game 2-nite between 2 district rivalz. Hunt4 u b right about tha Pantha girlz needen to play tha whole FO quarterz to win. I herd dat Helton wuz tinkin bout implementin tha STANLEY STALL early in da 1st quarta if Lewis County got a lead. Iz my homegirl Britny gonna play? Dat will be a biggie.

If dat fo 18 holez ya'll iz good, but if dat fo 9 ya'll is bad. How can a man only be playin' in 4 (les dan haf) uf da turnamentz be ranked no. 1? Sound like e-quake shud be no. 1.

I caint believe tha newz from ESPN dat star LB Joey Porter was involve in a gang bang shootout Snoop Dogg style ova tha weekend. I thank tha Steelerz are a bad influence on our youth. They nickname "Stealer's" even promotes negativity and thievary. Holla if ya hear me.

I agree wit tha professa in many wayz. This plus stuff was optional for extra services but now dat all changed. At first tha plus memberships wuz for scholarshipz but now it be for coacht's bank account. If I signed up for plus, would any negative postz get deleted? Do moderatorz have tha las say like they do now and can lock postz for their own reasons? What happened to good/bad marks? Can my membership get canceled for what is perceived as a bad post by some but not by others? Will the fee for plus membership jump up when only a few people getz it and coacht need mo money? Give me some answers befo I sign up?

I gotz a few questions fo anybody who can answer dem. Is Kelt still runnin' in dat 5K run on Saturday? What iz tha detailz on dat? Why woncha let da Bates Ballaz play wit ya in tha gym? Iz Kelt gonna box da Pearl?

Yo doggz I wuz on my bests behavior las night. Good recap but yo you forgot to talk 'bout Rob's opening act. Give him some propz.

Yo we went down hard las nite. American Dream was tough and the longball was fall'n for Smith. LD was his usual self with good play and lots of hustle, and Phil played well also. It is tru dat I didn't no what kind a defense we be playin' cause back in Dirtyville, ARK we don't play no defense. It is all fun-n-gun down there yo. And if the stupid mutha T-Mac would've let me shot mo we wouldn't have lost any games. When we play make it take it, you gots to feed me da rock cause once I gets hot its all over wit for tha other team. Good games tho, and I hope Duvall will sho up next time so we can rastle. I will pin Ricky D.....1,2,3.

Yo u is crazy. You mus not have eva seen us Legendz play. Dem boyz at da State aint got nutin' on us. Not even dem boyz from Linden, who I wishizzit tha best and hope dey win it all. As far as gettin' it on 2nite dat is ok by me. T-Mac couldn't handle my game in da past and caint 2nite. Richard don't won't none either. I throw dat fool 'round like he nothin'. Also if tha wall of granite Hugh Smith play 2nite he betta not set no illegal screen or throw a cheap bow at me in da post or me and him be fight'n to. I aint skeered uh nobody. MEEEEE READY, MEEEEE READY, MEEEEE READY, FOR Y'ALL.

I heard dat Coach K has recruited legendary player and coach Tommy "Tha Fuhrer" Fuhrman as another coaching assistant. Any truth to dat?

Josh is da SRO at LCHS. He still play hoopz a lot and is good. He also be an avid reader of CoachT.

Yo I fogive u dogg. I do tha same thang. I was just tired of Smith and his illegal screens all nite long. I 'member how he nearly ended my career at tha courts not long ago. I had to take it out on sombody. As far as T-Mac go, our rivalry will never die. He betta be glad Rodjo held me back. I was comin' strong at 'em. U mess wit me and roll da dice you pay da price! As far as my suspension I will appeal it. Nobody can holdz me down.
