You make some brave accusations there. First of all, I haven't played ball since high school. I am merely a spectator with a love for the game. I just enjoy a great game. I feel like the Cheatham fans have been beat down for so long in previous years as soon as they have seen a speck of light with this senior class led by Harlan, they are taking advantage of it by posting and talking their team up to others. This CC team will go down in history... but only to the fans of Cheatham county basketball. Next year the team will be back to normal, Douglas will be the leader and the only factor next year. This team has undoubtedly made a statement, and they have had a great season. But the adults and coaches around Jake Saunders have raised that boy wrong. He could be a phenomenal basketball player but he has been in too much trouble off the court to even have a shot at being anything more than an average JuCo player. The boy has below a C average at a failing public school. He is a risk and colleges don't want a put money into that big of a risk. Saunders is a punk or at least he comes off as one from the stands. When you find out where he's going to school let me know. Has he even gotten any offers?

I'm sorry to rain on your precious parade here CC moms and dads, but in my opinion, Saunders shouldn't even be in this equation. Saunders spends more time in in school suspension than he does in class and his GPA is sub-2.0. If I was his coach, he would not be playing for me. Those are facts. When East defeated the Cubs on Thursday night, the Cubs looked like punks. Saunders had his jersey off before he went to the locker room! Even on the message boards the Cubs fans have made every excuse in the book. Whining about Darden getting poked in the eye was my favorite excuse though. He gets himself in foul trouble nearly every game. Therefore, you can't blame him being out of the game on anything other than he was sitting his normal foul trouble time just for a medical reason. Going back to the televised district championship game, I don't believe Harlan got the credit he deserved. Harlan played his tail off. I completely believe if Harlan didn't play so well that night the underdog would have gotten the win! He should've gotten MVP. The Harpeth squad were obviously not prepared for Harlan to light it up that night. Saunders of course threw up his normal 20+ shots, with nearly 10 points coming from free-throws. I think that's expected from him every night though. The CPA club will defeat the Cubs on Monday night, unless the planets align and CPA plays their worst game and the Cubs play inspired by a greater power. There is no possible way Darden can match up well with Blackwell. Blackwell is too strong for him and will most likely eat him alive on the boards. And sadly, one of my favorite players, Harlan, won't match up well with Bonds. Bonds is so long and athletic. I hope I am wrong though. Lastly, Douglas is the key to their win. He must grab several boards because Darden will have his hands full. The CC club must play their best game by far. There can't be any flukes if they have any hope of winning Monday night. Maybe Saunders and his fan club won't embarrass Cheatham county too bad if anything goes wrong. Good Luck Cubs.
