soccer is life

Hey does anyone no anything about the Blackman and Wilson Central scrimmage on Friday. I heard something about Wilson Central not playing because of the heat or something? Is there any truth to that cause I was wanting to see one game before I left. So can anyone help me out here?

I have no idea? sorry?

I am not sure that wins in losses in preseason games mean anything. Preseason is a time to experiment with players, try new things, and get into game shape. I mean I realize that getting the wins are nice but in the long run a preseason result means nothing. Just a thought.

yeah definatly. I really hope so. I enjoyed talking soccer with other knowledgable people from 7aaa. good luck this year

ok back to the topic... does anyone know anything about Warren Co. Whitey hows this year looking for the girls?

ok, that standing ovation was because everyone knew that I was going to move that summer. The only reason I did not was because we could not sell our house. TUSC offered better coaching and Goalkeeper training (The lipscomb assistant coach) I decided not to play for Cookeville for reasons of which only me my family and a few teammates at Blackman know. I chose to disclose my reason for quiting out of respect for certain people, But no one seems to know that. Lets be serious did you really think that I wasn't going to play soccer for a year? No one asked me why I quit not even the coach or the assistant, (wonder who that is) and that was reason enough to leave. It's like one of my friends said, God meant for you to be in the boro." Thats all there is to it. but I do take everyone's anger as a complement. As for Falwell, I think its awesome that he came out and took a stance against things like that. I to apologize for going off topic. GO BLAZE

Hey, I can say whatever I want to about Cookeville, you sure seem to have plenty to say about me and my teammates at Blackman even after we wopped up on you twice this year. So, why can't I comment on ONE game in which I did not agree with certain desicions made in a game? everyone else does. I guess the truth just really stinks. It still amazing to me that people are still mad that I moved. Who cares? Get over it! I have moved on and you guys should to. God blessed me with a great senior year and an awesome opportunity in college so please to not mock the largest evangelical christian school in the world. Mr. Falwell was an amazing man and will forever be remembered and your comments are not approriate. I have forgiven the Cookeville faithful for their harsh treatment of me. So why can't you move on? I will continue to pray for you.

That is exactly what they should have done. You take your best player who signed with UT and put her at sweeper with 3 or 4 other defenders, and just look to counter attack, instead of staying with three in the back while becca and company pick you apart for four goals in a half and end your season. But your right that type of logical thinking is just dumb. And why would that be locker room material it was a year ago when the game was played. Who really cares? Get over it. Good luck this season.

No love? What? everyone is picking Riverdale to be in the top two. Oh and I am a blackman fan but I am trying to be objective here

That was actually one of the few girls soccer games that I went to last year (due to club practices) and though Becca did not score the goals, she pretty much did all the work to get them. Plus Riverdale had no buisness getting back into that game, if cookeville would have been smart then they would not have given up four goals. They just kept attaking and Riverdale counter attaked four times and that was it. I just dont see anyone hanging with Siegel this year. The race is for the 2nd spot.

I think Blackman vs. Riverdale will be a big game in district 7aaa also. I am saying that the winner will come in 2nd place.

Even though its senior night I just do not think that Riverdale will give up four goals and I think Becca will get one. Plus I think Riverdale will be just as fired up as Siegel. Not to mention that senior night stuff can often be distracting. but anyway in the end its the same result

Siegel 3 Riverdale 1 siegel 4 Cookeville 0 Riverdale 3 Cookeville 2 I really think Blackman will suprise some people this year. They are really young but seem to have some good talent.

the entire list was in the DNJ yesterday but it would take a while to list all of them on here

the coaches one (TSCA?) is done. not sure if it has been posted anywhere yet. This is what I heard from my coach anyway.

Thank you for the compliment Soccerontherise. I admit I was a little disappointed that I did not receive 1st team honors, but I am still honored to have been selected to 2nd team. God has truely blessed me and rewarded me with a great year, because after all I play for his glory and not my own. I was blessed to play with a great group of guys this year and I am so happy my friend and teammate Matt Reed made first team along with one of my closest friends Kun Chamjock. They both deserved it.

in what area of tennessee do you live?

I enjoyed sitting and talking soccer with you whitey and coachof3. Good luck to your teams in the future. Ill make sure to check in on the T next year.

i have enjoyed watching both teams play and they both deserve to be in the championship game, but i am going to take bearden 3-2 in OT. the bearden fans are awesome! it is wonderful to see that many students/allumni making the trip to support their team with the passion that they do

if i wasn't any good then why are you so upset that i left?

your ignorance is halarious. You might think that you got in paul's head, but the truth is, that he had no idea who you were, so why dont you let it go. Your just a bitter student. Thats all. If you knew anything at all about soccer then we(blackman) might listen to what you have to say. But since your just a hooligan your opinion means nothing to us. oh and I am sure you have lost games before, but you probably never got on the field/court so you wouldn't know what it feels like to play your heart out and come up short.

Thanks for the kind words about us. It was a great game. I wish the outcome was differant but that is the way it goes sometimes. I now you think that #10 actions were unexcusable, but he was not doing it just for himself, he was doing it for the rest of us who could not do anything because Cookeville's principal, Wayne Shanks, was taking pictures of the goalkeeper trying to catch him making gestures to to the Cookeville fans.

just wanted to hear what people thought about the game. I thought it was great game. I also wanted to clear up the situation after the game. The goalkeepers mother was going on to the field after the game when a cookeville parent crabbed her by th shoulders and start telling her what a bad team Blackman was. It was then when she pushed the parent to defend herself. Then the women who grabbed her husband came in and crabbed her to. At this point a dad from the team stept in to defend the Blackman parent. This inccident was started by a Cookeville mom not a Blackman parent. just wanted to set the record strait.

ok thats cool. I was not trying to undermine you or anything. I have a lot of respect for all that you do with High school soccer. I think it is really cool that you take the time to throughly study teams around the state.
