Ahem....Baxter Stadium is at Jasper

 

And anyway Grace doesn't have coaches boxes period

 

Here's a picture at Beene Stadium showing the newly enclosed and air conditioned coaches boxes plus some new paint and trim. Eat your hearts out

 

 

 

Very Nice ZP. I know that was a lot of work. You all should be proud.

You've got to be kidding me! Boyd has a decent crowd but nothing that warrants playing at Finley. Someone said they would bring 1500 to 2000. You didn't have that many at last week's game against Marion. A good crowd...yes. 1500 to 2000.... absoulutely no way... That must be some of that new private school math that you are using to estimate crowds.

 

Our stands seat 1100, they were pretty full. Had another 2-300 sitting on the hill in lawn chairs easy. That is a very conservative count. I doubt we will take that many to Grace, maybe not even half that now that the word is out about their facilities.

That's right. I have slept since last year. Did ya'll redo the press box too?

 

Anything new on the concession stand menu since last year?

 

Yes the pressbox has been re-done also. It is very nice. I am pretty sure it has carpet now too as it didn't in the past. A ton more room than our old press box. Not sure about the concession stand menu, but it is connected to our field house. Not sure if you have seen the new field house or not, but it is very nice as well. The field is in the best condition I have ever seen it in. They did a really good job over the summer working on it. I went out there to work out all summer and watched the field get better and better.

ZP if you keep posting pictures like that on this forum we'll wake up some morning to find that place painted a nice shade of purple and white.

 

Im going with the upset and picking Grace in this game. i dont no anything about either team except that a lady on Mrs. Capones phone yesterday said BBB was awful but jasper was awfuller or badder or worser or something to that effect. So armed with that unimpeachable aadvice im going with the home team in an upset. Go Grace whatever your called.

    • I have no idea who your team is, but Memphis and other Shelby Co. schools have hardly made a dent, if you’re talking Game 15 appearances. Outside of a couple by Whitehaven, I can’t recall the last team in a final. 
    • Robbed you guy at a chance of 3 state championships. You never kne,sond best team in the west my have beat you also,but you sure deserved the chance to play um.
    • Eagleville also loses Brown the catcher, Lamb CF, Mclemore RF (Heck of an athlete) and Drew the 1st baseman. They will be young. 
    • Good thing we aren’t in Florida then huh? It would benefit a ton of the smaller schools  that don’t have the pools of kids to choose from! They should start by policing Shelby County like they do the rest of the state! Something has to change though and TSSAA knows that! 
    • Correct, you can whimsically be fired in coaching. A coach that has tenure can stay on as a teacher if released from coaching. If you don’t have tenure as a teacher, you can fired without cause. Your last year as a teacher before tenure is earned you can be fired, but must be given cause. A tenured teacher can be fired, but it is a long hard process requiring the 3 D’s…. documentation, documentation and documentation. I have released 3 tenured teachers, 2 with PHD’s. However, teacher contracts had and still have clauses that state you can be fired for a variety reasons re: being arrested, public drunkenness, inappropriate relationships ect.
