dorman3, that was a very humorous and clever post, however i think you misunderstood my statement, or the intent of my statement. what i said was that in two weeks all 15 teams you have played will be at home waiting for next year....meaning probably none of those teams will reach the sub-state and definately not the state. that is not mentoring nor giving advice, but rather a statement of my opinion. if im wrong, please tell me which of those teams should we expect to see in memphis. you also derived from my post that i am a child that possesses a higher level of soccer skill than you do. in my post i find no such implication. i did say that after the 15 teams you have played are out of the tournament, that you will see a higher level of soccer. now think about that dorman......in other words....the teams you see in the sub-state and in memphis will be better than the teams you have played....the teams YOU see in the sub-state and/or memphis...... meaning YOU , tullahoma, should advance that far in the tournament...and when you get there, the remaining teams will be the best in the state....just my opinion. once again, if im wrong in thinking you will advance that far, please tell me who from your region will. if im wrong for thinking the teams in memphis will be better than the teams you have played, then please tell me which ones. i also closed my post, after predicting that you would advance to the sub-state and/or state, with a "good luck"....... i hope this clarifies my post.
