WELCOME BACK, HOOP. WHERE YA BEEN?? HERE YOU GO AGAIN STEPPING ON TOES. LOOKS LIKE YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME COMPETITION THIS YEAR WITH YOUR HATING ON THE WRONG PEOPLE ANYWAY, GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK. PERSONALLY, THE VOICE OF THINKS WC WILL BE BETTER WITHOUT HIM IN THE LONG RUN. HE HAD MAXED HIS ABILITY AND THIS GIVE WOOD AND WEITZEL ROOM TO WORK. IN THE SHORT RUN, MAJORS AND SWANN NEED TO STEP UP TO REPLACE HIS SCORING. ANYWAY, JUST THINKING ABOUT THAT FIRST GAME, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE STARTING LINEUP. THINK ABOUT THIS MAJORS 5'10" GLENN 6'2" SWANN 6'6" WOOD 6'5" (with hops) WEITZEL 6'8" I KNOW SIEGEL HAS TWO BIG GUYS, BUT CAN ANYONE STACK UP WITH ALL THREE OF THOSE GUYS?

pssssstt....siegel boys......the pump fake king quit

HERE WE GO... 1. KEITH RAMSEY, SIEGEL 2. KEVIN SMITH, RIVERDALE 3. CHAISSON ALLEN, OAKLAND 4. WARREN SWANN, WARREN COUNTY 5. JIMMY ODEN, SIEGEL 6. JOHN GRIBBLE (IF HE PLAYS), WHITE COUNTY 7. MICHAEL HILL, COOKEVILLE 8. BROOKS MAJORS, WARREN COUNTY 9. KYLE DELANEY, WHITE COUNTY 10. SCOTT THOMAS, RIVERDALE YEAH, I KNOW THERE IS NO ONE FROM LEBANON OR BLACKMAN. DOES ANYONE THINK ANY OF THE DESERVE IT? DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR THESE, HERE'S ANOTHER VIEW: http://www.unapproved website.com/showflat.php?Ca...sb=5&o=&fpart=1

THE VOICE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THE OBSESSION WITH ONLY A FEW PLAYERS FROM WARREN COUNTY. THE ONES YOU GUYS PICK TO LOVE MAKE NO SENSE. I PERSONALLY AM LOOKING FORWARD TO ADAM WOOD PUTTING ON AN AERIAL SHOW EVERY NIGHT THIS YEAR. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE RETURN OF SHAY GLENN AND HIS HANDLES. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING CHRIS WEITZEL GROW INTO HIS BODY AND DOMINATE. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO WARREN SWANN DROPPING THREES AND PUTTING ON HIS AERIAL SHOW. THERE IS MUCH MORE TO WARREN COUNTY THAN BRANDON ADCOCK AND BROOKS MAJORS. NOT A SHOT AT THOSE GUYS, BUT THEY ARE NOT THE "STARS" BY THEMSELVES.

I'LL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW, RYAN SMITH IN WARREN COUNTY HAS ALREADY MADE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE BEFORE HE HAS EVEN COACHED A GAME. THINGS WERE REALLY BAD HERE AND NOW THERE IS HOPE. I REALLY DON'T CARE IF THESE BOYS WIN A GAME. IT WILL JUST BE NICE TO SEE A WINNING ATTITUDE ON THE SIDELINES. GO PIONEERS!!!!!!!!!

YYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! IT'S BASKETBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE!!!!! MY PREDICTIONS: 1. SIEGEL: 14-0, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, MAKE THE RESERVATIONS FOR AT LEAST FINAL FOUR IN THE STATE. 2. OAKLAND: WASN'T SURE ABOUT THIS SECOND PLACE, BUT WITH WADE ON THIS TEAM, AND COACH KING ON THE BENCH, THEY MAKE THE LEAP. 3. COOKEVILLE: HENNIGAN, WOLF, AND HILL WILL "HOOSIER" THEIR WAY TO THIRD PLACE. 4. WARREN COUNTY: THIS TEAM IS VERY DEEP. THOSE WHO DON'T AGREE DON'T REALIZE HOW MUCH DIFFERENCE CHANGING COACHING CAN MAKE. 5. RIVERDALE: I JUST DON'T SEE THEM AS HIGH AS OTHERS ARE SAYING. ALL THEY HAVE IS SMITH AND HE IS MORE OF AN ATHLETE THAN A BASKETBALL PLAYER. 6. WHITE COUNTY: JUST TOO YOUNG RIGHT NOW. MAYBE NEXT YEAR. 7. LEBANON: GOOD COACHING, NOT MUCH TALENT. 8. BLACKMAN: WELL AT LEAST THEY HAVE WADE, WHAT THEY DON'T? UUHHGGG!!

JUST THOUGHT I WOULD ADDRESS WHAT THINGS HAVE COME TO. SOMEONE BROUGHT THIS TO MY ATTENTION. THIS IS A COPY/PASTE FROM TSSAA.ORG: BBk - Warren County High School in McMinnville, TN has an opening for head boys basketball coach. Valid Tennessee license required. Will try to work with almost any certification. Email resumes to Roy Pierce at piercer1@k12tn.net or call (931) 668 4022 ext. 226 for more information. Please, do not apply if you do not intend to accept job when offered. (05/03/2005) WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THAT? THAT'S KINDA PROOF THAT PEOPLE HAVE TURNED IT DOWN.

THE ONLY ONES I KNOW OF THAT DEFINITELY WERE OFFERED AND TURNED IT DOWN ARE BOBBY LUNA FROM GALLATIN AND THE FORMER HEAD COACH AT SYCAMORE WHO ACCEPTED THE POSITION AT OBION COUNTY. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHERS BUT DO NOT WANT TO STATE NAMES AND EVENTS I AM NOT ABSOLUTELY SURE OF.

I WAS WONDERING WHAT EVERYONE HAS HEARD ABOUT THE SEARCH FOR A WARREN COUNTY BASKETBALL COACH. I KNEW THINGS WERE GOING DOWNHILL WHEN LUNA TURNED IT DOWN, BUT MAN THINGS HAVE GONE EVEN FURTHER. SUPPOSEDLY, ANYWHERE FROM 2-4 MORE PEOPLE HAVE TURNED IT DOWN NOW. WHAT'S THE PROBLEM? WHY WON'T ANYONE TAKE THIS JOB? WHO WILL BE THE NEXT COACH? WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?!?!?!?!?

HAVEN'T YOU HEARD HOOP?!? THE BOYS "WON IT FOR COACH TURNER".

OK MUSICMAN, YOU'VE GOT IDEAS, LET'S DISECT THEM: 1. GREAT IDEA. DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN?!?!? THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP AREN'T GOING TO GET RID OF ANY COACH, ESPECIALLY THE WHOLE STAFF (PARTICULARLY FAMILY). 2. I THINK THE PLAYERS ARE THE ONLY ONES TRYING AT THIS POINT. 3. WHAT PAST MISTAKES? I DO AGREE ON THE LUCK. GO GET EM BOYS!!

OMG, THIS IS A NEW LOW. 67-30 TO THE 7TH PLACE TEAM IN THE DISTRICT!! WITHOUT THEIR COACH!!! HIGH SCORER WITH 6 POINTS!!! 30 POINTS BY A HIGH SCHOOL TEAM THAT WASN'T STALLING, JUST STALLED. WHAT NOW??? I HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH YOU POLE, THE PLAYERS AREN'T THIS BAD LEMONS. WE MAY NOT HAVE A SNEED OR A RAMSEY, BUT THEY AREN'T THAT BAD. WE HAVE SOME PLAYERS THAT CAN PLAY BETTER THAN THIS. MY ONLY EXPLANATION FOR A GAME LIKE THIS IS THAT THEIR MORALE MUST BE AT AN ALL TIME LOW. WHAT NOW???

OK, LET'S SAY THAT HAPPENS. TURNER DECIDES TO RETURN TO HIS ROOTS. WHAT THEN?!?!? DO YOU THINK ANYONE FROM OUTSIDE THE COUNTY WOULD WANT TO TAKE ON A TEAM WITH A 31 GAME DISTRICT LOSING STREAK BY THAT POINT?!?!?!? DO YOU THINK THERE IS ANYONE IN THE COUNTY SYSTEM ALREADY WHO WOULD WANT THIS JOB AND IS QUALIFIED?!?!?!? WE'RE IN A MESS, AND MRPOLESIT WILL LOVE TO KNOW THAT I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE BEST ANSWER IS. btw, MR, THANKS FOR AGREEING WITH ME, EVEN THOUGH IT KIND OF GIVES ME THE WILLIES~~~~~~J/K I WANT TO KNOW WHAT PEOPLE THINK THE ANSWER IS. I AGREE WITH MOST OF YOU THAT IT IS NOT IN PLACE NOW, BUT WHAT IS IT?!?!?!? I REALLY DO THINK THE TALENT IS THERE, HOW CAN WE GET IT GOING FORWARD?!?!?!?

OK SPORTS FAN, YOU GOT ME TO THINKING SO I USED THE WONDERFUL UTILITIES OF THIS WEBSITE AND WENT BACK, BACK, BACK TO FIND WARREN COUNTY'S LAST DISTRICT WIN.....DRUM ROLL, PLEASE..... DTDTDTDTDTDTDTDTDTDTDTTDTDTDTDTD... FEB. 20, 2003 V. WHITE COUNTY. SO THE TOTALS ARE: 1 LOSS TO END 2003, 15 LOSSES INCLUDING DISTRICT TOURNEY IN 2003-2004 SEASON, AND 9 LOSSES THIS SEASON FOR AN ASTOUNDING TOTAL OF 25 STRAIGHT DISTRICT LOSSES!! .......................A...................... ...................P.......E................. ................P...............S............ ....................L........U............. .........................A................... HE, HE, I JUST LOVE THAT ONE SERIOUSLY, THIS NEEDS TO STOP SOON!! WHAT WILL HAVE TO HAPPEN?!?!?

13, WELL, I DIDN'T SAY A KID WOULD BE WELL-ROUNDED. I DIDN'T SAY THE KID WOULDN'T MISS A SPORT. THERE ARE COMMUNITY LEAGUES, ETC. FOR KIDS TO PLAY SPORTS THEY WON'T PLAY AT THE NEXT LEVEL. LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE. LET'S SAY A KID IS GOOD AT BASEBALL, HAS A REAL SHOT TO GET A SCHOLARSHIP. HE LOVES BASKETBALL AND SOCCER. IN THE FALL, HE'S PLAYING SOCCER, NOT LIFTING OR THROWING FOR BASEBALL. IN THE WINTER HE'S PLAYING FOOTBALL, NOT LIFTING OR THROWING FOR BASEBALL. IN THE SUMMER AND FALL, HE CAN'T PLAY WITH THE TRAVELLING TEAM TO IMPROVE HIS GAME. NOW, THIS PUTS PRESSURE AND STRAINS THE KID'S TIME, BUT YOU CAN'T ARGUE THAT CONCENTRATING ON ONE SPORT YEAR-ROUND WON'T MAKE A KID BETTER. THERE ARE SOME KIDS THAT ARE SUCH WONDERFUL ATHLETES THAT THEY CAN PLAY MULTIPLE SPORTS THROUGHOUT HIGH SCHOOL (ALLEN IVERSON). MOST CAN'T. MOST NEED THE HELP AND EXPOSURE OF PLAYING ON TRAVELLING TEAMS. AGAIN, THIS IS TO MAKE THE PLAYER THE BEST AT HIS BEST SPORT. THERE ARE LEAGUES FOR BASEBALL OR BASKETBALL THEY CAN PLAY IN THAT DON'T DRAIN TIME LIKE HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS. ALSO, MOST COACHES KNOW THIS AND THEY FIGURE IF A KID SPECIALIZES IN HIS SPORT THE WHOLE YEAR, THEY WILL BE A BETTER PLAYER. IF THEY ALL DO, HE WILL HAVE A BETTER TEAM. ONCE AGAIN, I'M NOT ATTEMPTING TO BE P.C., JUST BEING PRACTICAL. DON'T BE OFFENDED, JUST THINK ABOUT IT.

THIS IS JUST ANOTHER CASE OF INCONSISTENCY OF PLAYING TIME. I'M NOT SURE THE CAUSE OF THE CHANGES, BUT A FEW PLAYERS HAVE SEEN THERE MINUTES FLUCTUATE (sp?) THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR. I UNDERSTAND THAT COACHES MUST REWARD PLAYERS WHO IMPROVE AND WORK IN PRACTICE AND GAMES, AND VICE VERSA. HOWEVER, SWANN, WOOD, MORRIS, DUNN, CRISP, NUNLEY, WOMACK, MARTIN, THESE ARE JUST A FEW NAMES I CAN THINK OF RIGHT OFF THE TIPPITY TOP OF MY HEAD THAT HAVE SEEN HUGE SWINGS, POSITIVELY AND NEGATIVELY, IN THEIR PLAYING TIME. REALLY THE ONLY TWO THAT HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT HAVE BEEN GILLEY AND HARRELL. EVEN ADCOCK AND MAJORS HAVE SEEN SIGNIFICANT BENCH TIME. WITH THAT SAID, WE AS OUTSIDERS, DON'T SEE MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, AND THURSDAY. WE ONLY SEE TUESDAY AND FRIDAY. THERE MAY BE ATTITUDE, WORK ETHIC, OR OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THESE KIDS. THERE MAY BE PERSONAL ISSUES ALSO. WE JUST DON'T KNOW. ONCE AGAIN, WITH THAT SAID, SWANN AND WOOD AND EVEN WOMACK DO SEEM TO HAVE TOO MUCH TALENT TO SEE IT SITTING ON THE BENCH FOR OVER HALF THE GAME. IT WOULD BE NICE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS BEHIND THOSE CLOSED DOORS. MAYBE THEN WE WOULD ALL KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS

TELL YA WHAT JBO, I DON'T REMEMBER AN 0 FOR 22 DISTRICT STREAK AT ANY TIME. THINGS DON'T LOOK GOOD. I'M NOT REAL SURE WHAT KIDS YOU MIGHT BE TALKING ABOUT THAT AREN'T ALLOWED TO PLAY MULTIPLE SPORTS. ALL OF THE KIDS I CAN THINK OF THAT AREN'T PLAYING BUT HAVE THE TALENT CHOSE NOT TO BECAUSE OF ATTITUDE OR LAZINESS ISSUES. HOWEVER, SPECIALIZATION OF ONE SPORT USUALLY HELPS. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, BY A KIDS JUNIOR YEAR, HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE WHICH SPORT HAS THE BEST CHANCE OF HELPING HIM GET TO THE NEXT LEVEL. COMMON SENSE WILL TELL YOU THAT THE MORE TIME YOU SPEND WITH A PARTICULAR SPORT, THE BETTER YOU WILL GET AT IT. THIS MAY NOT BE THE MOST P.C. ANSWER, BUT I DO THINK THAT AT THIS LEVEL, A KID SHOULD SPECIALIZE IF HE WANTS TO PLAY THAT SPORT AT THE NEXT LEVEL.

WARREN COUNTY IS THE ONLY HOT SEAT RIGHT NOW.

THIS IS HOW I SPEAK. IT MAY BE A SHOUT, BUT I AM THE VOICE. ALL WHO HEAR SHOULD SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! CHECK MY POSTS, IT'S JUST MY THANG, DEAL WITH IT.

OAKLAND BY A BUNCH. THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE THIS TEAM IF THEY HANDLED LEBANON SO EASILY. I WAS REAL HIGH ON LEBANON. WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT GAME? IF OAKLAND IS ALREADY BEATING THOSE BOYS LIKE THAT, THEY MUST BE LOADED BIG TIME. WATCH OUT DISTRICT 7 AND REGION 4. OAKLAND COULD MAKE IT FURTHER THAN THEY DID LAST YEAR.

HARDBALL, RIGHT ON, MAN. THAT WAS THE BEST EFFORT IN A LONG TIME. I PERSONALLY DON'T THINK RIVERDALE IS ALL THAT THEY USUALLY ARE AND I THINK THEY MAY NOT EVEN MAKE IT OUT OF THE DISTRICT TOURNAMENT THIS YEAR. HOWEVER, OUR GUYS PLAYED AWESOME!!!! thumb thumb WHITE COUNTY IS A VERY TOUGH PLACE TO ROLL INTO, BUT WE CAN ROLL. REMEMBER, ALL YOU WARREN COUNTY FANS, FOUR POINTS OF ADVICE IF YOU ARE TRAVELING TONITE: 1 -> WEAR SOMETHING REMOVEABLE BECAUSE IT WILL BE HOT 2 -> BRING EARPLUGS BECAUSE OF ALL OF THOSE MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS IN THE VISITOR SECTION 3 -> BRING BINOCULARS BECAUSE SPARTANS DON'T LET YOU SIT WITHIN 100 FT OF THE COURT 4 -> BRING YOUR VOICES BECAUSE OUR BOYS NEED YOUR SUPPORT!!! THE VOICE WILL BE THERE, WILL YOU?!?!!?

DOH!!! HOMER ( ) TRIED THIS THE OTHER DAY AND IT'S GONE NOW. DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS A BRIGHT IDEA. thumb WHAT DOES EVERYONE THINK OF THIS YEAR'S TEAM? IT SEEMS THEY ARE PLAYING BETTER, BUT WAS THAT JUST FRIDAY NIGHT? WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH THE REST OF THE DISTRICT SCHEDULE? WHO IS THE MAN ON THIS TEAM? I DON'T SEE ONE RIGHT NOW. I KNOW THIS IS USELESS, BUT CAN WE PLEASE KEEP THIS THREAD LIMITED TO DISCUSSION OF WARREN COUNTY BASKETBALL BY WARREN COUNTY FANS?

WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE WATERBOY DECIDED TO JOIN YOUR BOY RON ARTEST AND EMINEM AND JUST LOSE IT... AAAHHH AAAAHH AAAHHH AAAHHH AAAAHH!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE PIONEERS REALLY NEED TO DO IS JUST GO OUT AND PLAY WITH THE INTENSITY THEY HAVE SHOWN IN THE FOURTH THROUGHOUT THE GAME. COME ON GUYS, PLAY HARD, WITH CONTROL, AND HAVE A GOOD SHOWING. DON'T LET LAVENDER HAVE AN OPEN LOOK FROM THE CORNER, HE WILL LIGHT IT UP, NO DOUBT, AND THEN I WILL HAVE TO LOSE IT.... AAAHHH AAAAHH AAAHHH AAAHHH AAAAHH!!!!!!!!!!!

HHHHHHEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! EASY, DON'T THROW THE VOICE IN WITH OTHERS. WWWWHHHHOOOOOAAAAAAAA!!!!!! 25, I THINK YOU NEED TO CHECK YOURSELF AND YOUR FACTS. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ON HERE AND POSTED NEGATIVE COMMENTS. I HAVE GOTTEN ON HERE AND POSTED FACTS, GET IT, FACTS. DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT PRIDE. I JUST DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT. I POST POSITIVE ANNOUNCEMENTS. I TRY TO DEFEND THE INTELLIGENT ONES OF US AGAINST THE ATTACK ON OUR BRAINS BY THE MINDLESS HORDES FROM SIEGEL. I JUST THOUGHT HOOP'S COMMENTS WERE KIND OF FUNNY AND BASICALLY I WAS MAKING FUN OF THEM. IF SOMEONE CALLING A SPADE A SPADE OFFENDS YOU, THEN MAYBE THEY ARE HITTING A LITTLE TOO CLOSE TO HOME ?!?!?!? I KNOW YOU ARE DEFENDING FAMILY AND THAT IS ADMIRABLE, BUT DON'T LET THE INNOCENTS GET HIT WITH THE SHRAPNEL FROM YOUR VERBAL GRENADES!!!! THE VOICE HAS SPOKEN....DON'T QUESTION THE VOICE. thumb

I WAS JUST PRESENTED WITH THE BEST STATEMENT I HAVE EVER READ. THE BOARD JUST TOLD ME MY LAST POST HAD MORE EMOTIONS THAN THE BOARD ALLOWED. I THINK THAT SHOULD HAVE POPPED UP ON HOOP!@!@!@!@!
