catback Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) There are shorter ways than going from 27 all the way down to 24 around through Monteagle. Try 27 to 111 to 399 to 108. Not really hard at all. 399 is curvy and you'll need to take it easy on there but you will cut A LOT of miles off the trip instead of going all the way to 24 and through Monteagle. That's like going around your elbow to get to your..... This game is just like last year. Grundy 0-2. OS 2-0 with 2 big wins. Looks like OS wins but they should have won last year too. I'd call it a toss up. Grundy needs this win. Go Jackets! DL. 399 is VERY curvy and most senior adults would rather go the extra miles than drive a road like that, especially in non-daylight conditions or worst yet, in the rain. But, thanks for the alternate route, I'm sure there will be others who will take it instead! Go Bobcats!!

DelTavian Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) I drive 399 almost every day for work going to Cookeville. It's no big deal. Just take it easy... or drive 500 miles out of the way to go down to I-24 and all the way to Monteagle. Mapquest my way says.. 2 hours 27 minutes / 116.23 miles Mapquest via I-24 and Monteagle says.. 3 hours 2 minutes / 171.58 miles DL.

At my age, i have problems driving at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW, since when did giving directions become a pissing contest, 500 miles, really??? I'm sure their are those who will take 399, and others who don't. Each to their own, right?

But for someone like me and as busy as I stay going the long way would drive me nuts. So I figured I'd do the math and give everyone the details. DL.

Oldschool31 Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Thanks DL for the directions, 399 wasn't a bad road at all, I drive on much worse roads around here every day. Congrats to Grundy, we just couldn't seem to get a stop on defense when we really needed it. While a loss is never what anyone wants, the one positive that can be taken from this game is the kids didn't quit in spite of getting down early. I really thought we might have a chance in the second half, we seemed to be swinging the momentum our way, but couldn't get a big stop when we had to. That double pass for the last TD on 4th and 11, MAN if we can break that one up, but we didn't. Again congrats to the Yellow Jackets, and good luck the rest of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
