So, Mr. Pitchfork, do you still think your beloved blue devils are gonna win region? ha ha ha ha :roflolk:

 

The Tigers just seemed to have our number this year. They played sound defense last night once we got up on them, and they didn't panic. After chipping away at our lead all night, they capitalized on 3 bad turnovers in the last 11 seconds of the game to come from 4 down and won 50-47.

 

Without sounding like sour grapes, I have to say that one of those officials - wherever we happen to be playing - seems to swallow his whistle. WH never gets a call from him, and some others, even when everybody in the gym can see it. Did it to us at Westmoreland, too. I suppose everybody feels the same way, but the game film doesn't lie. Some of these officials seem to think people paid to watch them call the game.

Any more excuses from the White House fans? I do enjoy listening to these hilarious excuses, they not only crack me up, but also make me shake my head a little bit. :wacko: So, it now looks like WH will get GB or GP in the first round of district depending on GP and GB's two head to head games this friday @ GP and sat @ GB.

I believe Sycamore can win the district regular season title and the tournament title at Vol State if they play together and no one tries to put on a one man show. I like the way Coach Worsley has this team playing down the stretch of the season even though they lost to White House last Saturday. Sycamore's points will come because of the scoring from Froedden, Fuqua, Gentry, and Brown, but if they want to win the District Tournament title then they have to play better defense and if they do this they can make some noise in the Region Tourney. Does anyone know where the Region Tournament will be held at?

I don't believe any excuses were made, Hokie. Read the post slowly, next time. I clearly said MCHS played good defense, chipped away at our lead, then capitalized on three bad WH turnovers very late in the game. No officials were involved in calling the turnovers; they were our fault. I simply pointed out that it seems some officials swallow their whistles more than others, and only decide to blow them at critical junctures in a game where they have the biggest effect. You see it from the same officials at seemingly every game they call. I also said everybody probably feels the same way as it concerns their favorite team, and that the game film doesn't lie.

 

Now, explain which of these statements isn't true.

Whatever, Heisman. This is a message board, so obviously there will be those whose level of reading comprehension isn't very high. Let the list of names begin with yours.

 

Bottom line, the clock and the score were in the Devils' favor. We handed MCHS all the chances they needed to take the game from us in the end, and they did. Good for them, and shame on us.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By cbg · Posted

      What you are saying is true about high school athletics being a privilege and not a right, but NO ONE ever knows what will happen if a case goes before a jury.  Again, I have been in a couple of jury rooms and it's always a little crazy.  That is why my prediction is you will see a settlement before the case goes to trial.

      So you want a have and have not split? Sound like the perfect ramp to elitism. Tell those rural kids that they'll never be able to compete with those urban kids. They're not good enough right? Or we could just do what travel baseball does and have tournaments every weekend and give kids big fake rings for winning a few games. The suburban public schools are typically the ones with more funds. Urban and rural schools have more in common in finances than they do with rural schools. I've taught and coached in all of it. The difference is attitude. But if you're jsut going to say you can't compete because you don't have the money then that's an excuse. Especially in basketball. The balls are the same size, the rims are the same height and size. The ball dribbles the same in some rural gym in mountains as it does in the FedEx forum. Charters come and go like a fart in the wind. They are no real threat to anyone. Magnets could be but rarely do they win either. It just hasn't been seen in Tennessee.

      Pemberton Leaves Rhea for Campbell County

      By Rhea Co. · Posted

      That’s a good line. Wins would be Soddy, Howard, and Ooltewah. Maybe East Ham again or Knox Central. Tyner maybe but being that late in the year it’s hard to say. I don’t think we get by Red Bank this year.    Rhea could be anywhere from 2-8 to 6-4.

      I agree with the Farragut and Bradley claim. Those will both be wins. Bearden like you say is depending on when you get them in comparison to when the wheels fall off.  As far as West goes I’m 50-50. They have been able to reload so far so until they show me they haven’t I can’t count them out.
