Okay. White flag. I am a Greenfield fan. Last post. I promise.

For the record, I am not a Bradford homer. I have not lived in bradford in almost 15 years. I was just giving my opinion.

What did you edit out of this post? I am just curious. I have not had a hard time crossing over, but I am beginning to think that you are having a hard time accepting me.

You are entitled to your opinion and I knew you would disagree. However, I don't agree with your argument about how good the team would be doing. Meredith Richardson was a 2 time Ms. Basketball from Bradford and the teams she played on were not very good. As far as Lake Co. goes, I think Carnation Hart might be better than T.T. She was the dominant player against Greenfield anyway. Again these are just opinions, and like I said, my opinion is that Street is hands down the best player in the district.

Well, I was a bit off on the score. lol Bradford looked very good last night. My opinion is that Street is the best player in the district and I don't think it is that close. On another note, could we please stop with the arguing back and forth. I am sure there are kids on every team that have bad attitudes from time to time or just have personalities that some people do not like. I for one have never seen a player on Greenfield or Bradford show an attitude on the floor. That being said, these kids are 15-18 years old, and this public forum is no place for this kind of talk. These kids read this stuff. If you want to talk about things they need to improve on, that is one thing, but let's leave the topix type talk for topix

Wow!!! I am crazy? How realistic was your projection against Lake Co? I did not call you crazy my man. Even after the game I still did not call you crazy. And being as Gleason beat Bradford twice this year, I would have to disagree about Bradford being better than Gleason. I thought so before the season, but the games have been played. The scores tell us different.

Game has been moved up 1 hour. The Tip off is now set for 5:30

Come on over and be optimistic for a change man. We started the season a bit rougher than we wanted, but we went on a 7 game win streak including a 22 point win a Humboldt. We had a hick up against Gleason that I am sure many of us are still sick over. We rebounded and beat Halls the very next night, and then took the #1 team in the state to double O.T.

Greenfield by 20

I am not going to get into a spat with you over this. I just find it very funny is all. I have never seen Lake Co. get beat or even when a close game and not complain about the refs. That is all. Take it for what it is worth. Also, my comments about T.T. were never that she was bad. I just thought she had a ways to go to become what Lake Co. was billing her as. The potential has always been there.

Sometimes those refs smile because the crazy things the fans say are just down right funny. Every fan thinks they can ref these games. I say go get a uniform and run up and down the court. I am not saying that there are not bad calls. Of course there are, but every time we see a Lake Co. loss or close win we hear about some bad calls by the refs. Of course it is always followed or preceded by the phrase "no disrespect" to whatever team the opponent happens to be. 99 out of 100 times that a player goes into the lane out of control they will get called for a charge. Mark it down. It is the way it is. When T.T. realizes this and proves that she can alter her game, she will really be a good player. Great win Lake Co, and I loved the effort out of the Jackets. I believe these are the 2 best teams in the district.

Bigster, T.T.'s 4th foul was most definitely a charge. The coach even jumped her over her poor decision. His words were "when you are out of control, they will call a charge." I was sitting right next to your coach. That is what he said and it is true. Our player had position, and T.T. went in out of control and definitely made contact. I mean she did not tackle her, but it was definitely the right call. We have been saying it for 3 years. T.T. is an amazing athlete, but until she learns to play in control, she will continue to get those fouls. A reason why her fouls seem to come in bunches is probably because she gets frustrated.

Lake Co. won 47-45 in double OT. It was a great game.

You might be right, but the point is that we fought you hard and we can't get out of our district most years. The level of competition is a bit different. Any objective person would agree.

We are 12-6. The boys record is one game behind the girls

I believe we are 13-5 with the win over halls.

Greenfield got a good win tonight over Trenton. Final score was 65-58

According to the article, the reason why so many free throws were taken was because of the attitude of the entire team. The kid in question mouthed off. The coach mouthed off. Then the bench went off. If there is no one on the team that is going to get the players under control then it is left up to the officials.

Last night at the Greenfield/McKenzie game, a McKenzie player fouled out and immediately untucked his jersey. His coach did not hesitate to make his player tuck his jersey back in. The coach was very animated telling his player to get that jersey tucked back in. Wonder why? People need to stop complaining every time something happens against a player of a team they root for. Most of the time the refs are right guys.

Actually, I think it is about disrespect. According to the article, the kid untucked his jersey. That was one technical foul. The coach got another one, and then some on the bench if I remember right. I can somewhat understand the coach, but the bench has to move on.

I agree with you theoretically, but if you don't give respect to a bad official it will cost you. You have to be respectful of the position at times.

Like it or not, the refs are the authority in the game. I get so frustrated at the disrespect that many kids today show to authority figures. What is worse, is that many kids get this from their parents. Many parents think their kids do no wrong and it is always someone else that is to blame. If he would have obeyed the authority, no technical fouls would have been called and then there would not have been 10 free throws shot on one play. You can blame who you want, but the blame truly rests on the player and his coach/father.

You really think Greenfield is that low? Not a chance. Greenfield is 2nd or 3rd at worst in this district.

Wow!!! Anyone that disagrees with you, gets zinged apparently. I may not know who the leader in the locker room is on a team, but I know who the leader on the court is. Molly Wallsmith was the leader on the court. Everyone on the team looked to her. It is apparently very obvious to everyone except you. I watched her even try to get other players involved and they still looked to her. She made Bradford click. Also, I never said that the best player is the leader. If you want my opinion, it does not look like Bradford has a leader this year. That might be part of the problem they are having. Just sayin' And one more thing, if Molly was not the leader of last year's team, who was?

Tubbs and Oliver were not on the Bradford team last year. It was Wallsmith, Combs, Bratton, Street, and Renfroe. Molly was most definitely the leader on that team. I would even argue that she was the leader when Tubbs and Oliver were on the team.
