Hey wolfie: Grad has played more ball than you can ever dream about. Let's just say he has a very strong interest in what he talks about. A legit interest and that's all you need to know about it. With only 12 posts you need to just stick around and read and learn. Grad, I need to talk to you. I'm in the book, give me a call.

Ballard High School, Louisville Ky, linebacker, class of 73.

I would say it has to do with John Allen.

Team Mom: We love watching those boys. Along with O'Dell, those are the only 4 we know from our boy's days. After this year we may not see any games. The end of an era!

Remember, he said most not all.

Yes they lost their qb. What was the score of the RB vs SD games the last 3 years? So even with Fabry, how well did they do? Anybody have those scores? I can't believe anyone is even discussing RB having a chance!

Red Bank to score 7,or 10? They only scored 3 against 3A AE! How in the world will they score on SD defense. Are u guys saying AE has a better D than SD? I didn't think so.

That student from SD that started this, is a bench warmer on the basketball team. He started some crap on here last year about a former football/baseball player and got a real "beatdown" and doesn't have Coach Blue to save him again. You would think he learned something last year. As for the rest of you, don't you think it's time to move on. Yes, even you adults.

Hicks has looked at Temple and Bryan College. It sounds like he is leaning towards Bryan.

It was probably Albert "Bert" Gertz.

Everyone keeps forgetting about Matt Hicks. Led SD in average last year and can hit the long ball.

No one has mentioned Matt Hicks at Soddy-Daisy. I believe he had the highest ave. on last years state tournament team.

Brian Kelly "vanished" after the school year last year, he was a no show for the baseball banquet too. Austin Dobbs is at Texas A & M, but decided not to try out for the baseball team. Of the 5 SD seniors last year only Phelps and Boron are playing baseball. Phelps signed a scholarship at Southern Poly, in Marietta, and Boron walked on at Centre in Danville, Ky. Boron is also playing football there.

Well I was at the game .I heard there was a fight in the Hixson stands . It was a black kid in a gray sweatshirt named Ray, flailing away on somebody. Mr. Swafford got in the middle of it to stop him.It appeared he took some punches,too. Then I saw McNeil trying to pull Ray away. He was trying to stop the fight from what I saw. I don't believe that Ray is his brother. He goes to Sequoyah Voc. ,but he's from Howard.He comes to Soddy to catch the bus to Sequoyah in the morning. He also shoved the police officer. In my opinion , he should have been cuffed and arrested right then and there. The only thing I saw Russel do is pull the kid away and have some words with Mr.Swafford. Then his mom pulled him away and Russ's dad took Ray out of the stands. That is what I witnessed. I don't know if this Ray is the same kid who started a fight one morning at Soddy a couple of weeks ago. If it is, he needs anger management! The officiating was horrible again. Well, really there was only one ref who made all the bad calls or ignored calls he should have made.

Coach I: You left a life long mark on a lot of young men in your short time at SD. The last of "your hogs" will graduate next year but the stories of Coach I have been passed on to the little piglets. Yes we were all sorry that you couldn't stay, it would have been icing on the cake to have you there now, with Coach Weathers. Who can forget your leading the team headfirst into the mud (?) after a game. Those kids would have jumped in front of a train for you. Good luck to you.

Be careful oldschool, joel is getting ready to disappear. Don't go with him.

*yawn* another Soddy bashing comment from a bitter Soddy graduate, who happens to be the founder and president of the 1 man L. Wood fan club. Yes, news flash, Sd will lose more games in the next few weeks. No one said they wouldn't. This is the first year of a rebuilding process, and so far it has exceeded expectations. What's the matter your kid not playing, hey, I know, claim the coach has misused booster money and everyone will beg laura to come back. That hasn't been tried in at least a week.

Glad to have you back from tv land. Good that you could spend some time with us internet geeks. Get that makeup off your face though. Learn anything about big time tv from Stump? I didn't think so. You're the only one in the bunch with a "face for tv." I said "O outscored Sd by 17-6 in the 4th, pretty impressive". The comment about free throws indicates that I didn't attend the game and was only guessing that SD used the common tactic of fouling when behind late to get back in. I have no idea what happened. See any of my boys at the game? They lost their grandfather last Sat. We have spent alot of time in Louisville in the last 2 months. Haven't seen SOS in a while. Congrats to Ooltewha on a big win.

Oh and can't new players make a difference without the team winning. What was the margin of victory last year?

Only zander has said anything about "state" and I hope I don't have to explain zander to you by now. I didn't even say they would win this game.

So you actually didn't see the game.....oh.

and my guess would be most of those were free throws

An eternity? Half the margin of victory came in the last 4 minutes.

So ooltewah outscores SD 17-6 in last 4 minutes. Pretty impresive. SD is still 8-1 and we are very happy with that. I'm sure the meeting at SD will go a little different. McNeil isn't a problem because he gets 1 technical. Churchballers? There are only 2, and 1 starts, and they have only played 9 hs games, they will get much better as the season goes on. They are doing fine. Good luck to Ooltewah, and keep your head up and on straight SD, it's still a long way to go.

Denlron: Rende was gone most of the season and never approached coach wood about anything. Why the snide remarks about Rende? Ask Doddle and Orr about coach wood? One of those guys called her wacky wood and didn't like her. Don't want to go there. You seem to miss the point, it's not that people didn't think she knew bball, it was all of her pesonal problems that bled over onto the bball team and affected her mentally. She played mind games with the players, saying things about players to other players, saying one player said something about another player that wasn't true. Also involving other coaches in this. All of this was going on during practices. I think her boyfriend working at SD also created problems. Someone asked you earlier about the bitterness towards SD, since you and you bro graduated from there. What happened to cause it?
