Crazy things at games

Ok. If you go to Clinch, something crazy is bound to happen. Three years ago, the gym had a wasp nest in it. We almost got swarmed. <_< Two years ago, the gym was infested with lady bugs and flies, and they had to stop the game ever so often to sweep all the dead bugs off the floor......

 

But beat this. Many years ago at the Unaka at Clinch game (we're talking about Ronnie Snavley's 1st stint as coach, about mid to late 80's) the roof was leaking, but since this was such a common occurence (Clinch's gym has to be one of the oldest in the state) that they didn't halt play, they just put trash cans out there to catch the water! But thats not the best thing about it: Coach Snavley was setting up plays that used the trash cans as screens and they were playing pick and rolls off of them :lol:

I have few...

1. Cj Black breaking the backboard against Cleveland in the region finals off a vertical jump

2. At midnight madness at CSAS back in 98 Kenny Mobley shattered a backboard, and then in a scrimmage at McCallie he shattered another, essentially breaking two backboards in one day because the 1st one occured after midnight and the second one was the same day

Wouldn't happen to be Smith County, would it????....and I'm not being sarcastic.....

 

And the funniest thing I've ever seen at a ball game was when a team was getting killed on the road and (probably because they suspected they might) brought a guy who'd never played before, just for kicks. Well, sure enough, the game was very one-sided, and in the 4th quarter, they put the kid in. He had a jersy, but no shorts, only snap up warm up pants to match the color of the team's shorts. Well, about a minute later there was a loose ball, and a guy from the other team went after it, and caught his hand on this guy's pants and ripped them almost all the way off. Well, since he was running, he obviously got tangled in them, fell, and finished the job. Not only that, he didn't have on under armor, or even boxers, but whity-tighties! The ref stopped the game at the next dead ball and one of his teammates had to help him off the court. I laughed until I cried!

 

That is hilarious.. <_<

Icecold - I remember that also!! Kenny Mobley breaking two backboard in less than 24 hours is a feat that will never be accomplished again. I'm just glad that I was one of the few that had the chance to witness it. (If I can remember, I think YOU were winning the dunk contest at the time Kenny ended it all at midnight madness... :thumb:

Have to agree Clinch gym is one of a kind. I remember playing there in the late 70's and there was no heat and it was freezing outside. The players played in their warmups and the refs wore their jackets during the game.

When Ooltewah beat Central in the District Tourney at the buzzer a Ooltewah fan said something to a player and the whole central team surronded him and then Centrals coach ran over there getting in the fans face cussing him and the fan walked away but the coach keep walking with him yelling at him then his dad ran down there to try to fight the coach then Centrals assistant Principal threw a punch at the parent (and missed) and all crazyness broke lose! lol not as funny as most of these but this was pretty cool to witness. The funny thing is that the students girlfreind was a cheerleader and her parents were there and that was the first time they got to meet his father!!

Joe Shivers from Humboldt shattering the backboard at the Gibson Co. Christmas Tourny at Gibson Co. against the Milan Bulldogs...delayed the game for about a hour and a half...I believe the player giving chase to Shivers when the backboard shattered was Henry Atkisson which was cut by the falling glass

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
