It's impossible to ride all the way to state with just one player. You may be able to beat smaller, less skilled, less disciplined teams with that player. Once you get to the top teams, though, that player gets shut down, even if he is good enough to compete with them. I don't see them going through. Sorry.

Ha, I always loved the old Smyrna coach. I loved him at first because he always yelled at his players, but then I finally got to meet him because he was a good friend of my old high school coach. They were both Greek . He's a good guy. It makes me wonder what the new coach will be like and if he can get his players to perform at all. No matter how much I don't like them, they usually have some skill up there in Smyrna. Don't take them too lightly.

Too demanding..? Wow...anyway. I can vouch for Dakis coaching out of state as well. I talked to him in person about it. He'll be big ballin' there Looks like sccrplr5 shows his ignorance and arrogance about certain subjects again... Please keep away from posting condescending remarks or attacks, or else it will force others (such as myself, unfortuantely) to do the same towards you in defence.

Yeah, they are a pretty darn good team, out of the two games I've seen. I can see where you're coming from tiger09. It's Juliet, in case you're wondering. Also, they wouldn't play Rossview in a region semi-final if they kill us like you predict (and let's face it, every one predicts). That is unless Clarksville beats Rossview, which shouldn't happen because Rossview is a much better team, though Clarksville is still solid. Thought I'd share thumb

I'm pretty sure that wasn't a score. I think that was his predtion for seeding....thanks for the confidence though thumb ...

What are the match-ups, time and place? A friend on MJCA told me they play York at 4:30, but I wasn't sure if MJCA is hosting the tournament. Also, who do you think will win? I am surprised with Friendship this year, being undefeated and tying up Livingston. We unfortunately didn't play them this year, nor have I seen them play. Think they could win it?

Does anyone have details of the district tournament game? Besides the score of course.

Well, I didn't see the Smyrna/White House game, and I'm not going to comment on our team because we weren't particularly pleased with our play, but the other two games... For Hendersonville, I can't really say anyone in particular. Out of what I saw (the first half and some of the second), the offence played decently well as a team, with nothing that was all one individual. Kelly had a nice little volley, but that's about it. Other's just seemed to play well, but no names. For LaVergne (Gallatin seemed out of it for most of the game and played the long ball too much), #20, extremely tall midfielder/defender, and #14, small and quick forward, were their key players. Those two are the reason for the first 3 goals. #20 hit the #14 on long throw ins, and Gallatin couldn't mark. #3 (I think) had a nice indivdual play for the last LHS goal. Hope I helped. Does anyone have details of the last game (Smyrna/White House), besides the score? I would have liked to stay, but I was hungry

Mt. Juliet and LaVergne play at 8 PM on Monday night, and I'm sure there wouldn't be a game at 10 PM, so I believe (but am not sure) that Hendersonville and Smyrna will play around 6 PM Monday night.

Alright, time to call it a night, guys. While hilarious, and it seems like it is all in good fun, these topics might get out of hand soon. If you want to continue the banter, either send a private message, or converse on AIM. These posts don't bother me because I'm getting a good laugh, but I'm sure others are getting annoyed for wasting space on the forum. In case you have more comments on intelligence though, sccrplr5, I believe we all live in Tennessee, which (no offence to anyone else) isn't known for incredibly high standards of education. Saying we're stupid for living out in the middle of no where (Mt. Juliet is less than 30 minutes away from Nashville, by the way) is a little pointless. It's Tennessee. While there are exceptions (trying to avoid offending everyone ), we's all some hicks.

I've got some friends who play for Wilson Central, and though it is extremely far-fetched, I'd love to see the upset. On any given day...so good luck WHHS, LHS, and WC! Those aren't my predictions, I'd just like to see those teams win...

See, I don't know what they'd gain from losing on prupose. They would finish 4th or 5th, correct? The only explanation I can think of for purposely losing is that they are afraid of LaVergne, which (don't get me wrong, LaVergne is a decently strong team, and I hope they can pull a win against Gallatin, I'll be at the game) doesn't make sense either. Smyrna is at least as good as LHS. Can anyone think of any other reason for throwing the game? And anyone from White House, please don't take this the wrong way. Maybe you caught them off guard and deservedly dominated the whole game. I wish I could have been there to see the game. Hope you do it again tomorrow afternoon! thumb

Wow. That really surprises me. I knew White House would play tough, so I wasn't expecting a blow out, but especially not from White House. Congrats on the huge win. You upset how the district usually ends up. Will that make WH 4th in the standings now? Congrats again.

Does anyone know the outcome of the Hendersonville - Gallatin game tonight? Or any comments on the game?

Yeah, Rossview is as good as their ranking shows. They are a very solid team, who I personally hope to meet in regionals. First, we have to get out of districts, but I hope we meet them again. I didn't think either team deserved to lose tonight, though Rossview had more chances in the first half. The second was 50-50 mostly (keyword). While neither team deserved a loss, we made more mistakes than Rossview, and they capitalized like all good teams should. Good game again.
