If any of you plan to be at the play day in Blount County this weekend, what are you wanting to see? Weather looks to be good and plenty of teams will be represented. Let us know what you think?

 

I think everyone saw what they expected -- not much. Most teams in this playday just wanted to get on the field and give all players the opportunity to get some swings in. Most of the teams I saw did not have all their starters in place. Some players were still in basketball last week. This was the first real test for the coaches to see what they really have.

 

Maryville looked very small, and they are young this year. They always seem to pull it out in the end though.. Powell was missing a couple of players and didn't show much. Alcoa held there own but their district is pretty weak. They should do well with the addition on their new pitcher to help Green out.

 

Heard William Blount did well, but you never saw their true starters on the field at one time. Tuck only pitched a few innings which is what most coaches did with their ace's. No reason to prove anything this early.

 

The next couple of weeks will get interesting with scrimmages and more playdays. Coaches should have their starter set and the season will be off and running..... See you there......

I also thought William Blount looked pretty good, although they did not have everybody. Jefferson County did not "wow" me, but was a very solid team and played aggressive. Central and Karns also looked game ready when I saw them. Now the real question is how much improvement do the others make between now and game one?

Anyone know if any of the Blount County teams will be in anymore playdays? Season doesn't start for 2 weeks. I know the Beech playday is coming up in a couple of weeks but not sure if any of our teams are heading to Nashville area. Should be a good playday with a lot of great teams.

      Dyersburg may win back to back to back championships. They are going to be hands down the best 3A team. Plus their District/region/sectionals are not very good. They basically just have to make it to region out of a 5 team district that has a few decent teams. South Gibson will be okay but they graduate their best player and there is nobody in the region 7 or region 8 who is going to compete with them.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.

      You are so correct!  It’s really 99.9% of academia want to change to way that education is not only taught but the way it is viewed.  The pendulum has definitely swung as far to the left as possible and eventually will swing to the right much too far.  I have always  said that politics and one’s personal religious views need to stay out of education,  but for the last 40 years education has been running full throttle to what we have today.  If the social experiment that we are currently experiencing continues it is only a matter of time before the public school system in the USA completely collapses and all kids attend private schools or even worse don’t go to school.
