and when some of us were at the tennessee-florida game on saturday, charles little was just starin us down and all he said was....Thursday...so we have also been challenged by him, i can't say that i have been more pumped for a game yet this year

i admit that their may have been a bad call, but every game you play will have one or 2 bad calls, but those just happened to be at the end of the game to make it more obvious to everyone, but cleveland did give up a 16 point lead, and still all you have to do is win your games cleveland and you get another chance at them, so just take care of business and show who the better team is

when did i ever contradict myself saders? and thanks 141111 for seein what i am upset about [Edited by mnewballer21 on 2-17-03 11:10A]

yeah and then read what kellen pickel had to say on here, its terrible that the paper had to make up that story like that

cleveland better watch out and not think they will just steamroll over ooltewah on thursday, last time at ooltewah they were within 3 pts with 3 minutes to go when they started fouling and ended up losing by 17 b/c cleveland hit almost every free throw, and it is also to be mentioned that ooltewah was playing without their best player sherman moton b/c he broke his cheekbone the other day, and now they are on a roll winning 4 straight including wins over brainerd at brainerd and central, so hopefully it will be a good game

ok, and like i said in another thread, yall beat us fair and square, i wasn't sayin anything about that anyway, and ooltewah is a much improved team since temple beat them, i was just sayin that i don't think it is right that temple should be praised so greatly for beating brainerd and ooltewah wasn't, it has been like this all year, temple always gets the press, but i guess if our record was 23-2 or whatever we would too, but oh well

oh ok haha

what does having players from another state have to do with anything?

yes, but when ooltewah beat them, it was for the first time in school history, so i believe that is just as HUGE, especially when ooltewah isn't known for basketball, like temple is

nope, they won by 10, not more than 10, and ooltewah was having to foul at the end, and that was when ooltewah was still playin bad, they are on a roll now, and could possible move into the top of their district rankings after a horrible start to their season

stump made a big deal out of this win for yall, but gave ooltewah no publicity when they beat them by 10 at brainerd, i don't why, but it is still a great win for you guys none the less

yeah all i have to say is 50 cent is the man, and that in da club song is awesome, it gets me up for the game, we listened to it before the game today and beat red bank 78-57

what about it would be the upset of the year if ooltewah beat cleveland on thursday, but i don't think it will happen, although i am not countin out the possibility, i mean they lost to them by 17 but they were within 3 pts with 3 min left in the game and they did not have sherman moton b/c he broke his cheek bone the day before, so who knows, hopefully they will play a good game

told you guys that you could beat them, but we beat them by 10 at brainerd..still big props to you guys on a good game

so are you grant?

yeah i agree, but the best dunk i have seen was when trey sharpe threw it down on justin hare, in the first bradley-cleveland game, it was just awesome, too bad i think bradley will win againg tonight.

cool, maybe then you will actually tell us who you are picasso...is this Grant?

yes they have a great chance of beating them, they just have to make sure they box out, and hope ced dozier doesn't get too hot, but then temple has jake to balance him out, so i'm thinkin temple might actually win

how good is boyd this year, i haven't been able to see them play?

sorry for the misunderstanding, but i was using the word "dominate" to mean that they were basically in control of the game for most of the time, i hope you understand what i was tryin to say now, cleveland still played a great game and all credit goes to them, i just think at bradley their players will be more confident with their shots and stuff and they will win by about 10, thats all.

like i said, bradley went through a couple of times where they had mental breakdowns for like a minute at a time and made a few turnovers and let cleveland back in it, and thats not to even mention the lay ups and free throws they missed, that is how i can say they dominated the game

that triple overtime game is misleading, it seemed to me that bradley dominated most of the game, and just had a couple bad minutes when cleveland make a quick run to get back in the game, and then they missed many crucial free throws and layups that would have put the game away easily, from what i saw in that game bradley is clearly the better team.

I'm definitely goin with Bradley...I'd say by 12 or more

ok saders, geez like I have already said, I never said that Caleb was a bad player so just get over that, if thats not good enough for you then I apologize just end that, and I'm sorry if we let personal problems get in the way of our game at the beginning of the year, but we're not the only team in history that has happened to it happens quite a lot actually, I'm not even using that as an excuse that yall beat us, you guys beat us fair and square, I never disagreed with that, all I was tryin to say was that our team is now on a little roll and have been playing "team" basketball now, and we weren't at that point in the season, and I was just sayin that to someone that was tryin to make it sound that we weren't a good team, which our record says we aren't but that isn't true, we haven't lost a game by more than 10 pts except to Cleveland, and that was without arguably our most dominant player Sherman Moton because he had just broken his cheek bone the day before, and that game was within 3 pts until 3 minutes left in the game, then we started fouling/fell apart, etc. That is all I have to say though, and I don't care how many colleges I have looking at me, that doesn't mean I won't play college basketball b/c I would most definitely love to it would be nice if there were colleges wanting me and I want to find out those that would, but I have other plans for my future, I'm sorry, I just have a passion for basketball and enjoy playing it and happen to be ok at it and thats why I continue playing.

Yes, losing Ellison may hurt some, but I don't believe it will hurt all that much, I mean some times he tries to take over the game himself and we all know how that can go, this isn't to take anything away from him b/c he is good and has has had a good season, but we still have plenty of talent coming back next year, and then a few other role players like brandon smith and brandon brown that Fanatic failed to mention, I believe that Ooltewah will be able to play with anyone in the area next year, including Cleveland and Bradley, hopefully we will get them both on our schedule.
