Btw1993, I can promise you NO ONE at Trinity thinks BTW doesnt have a chance. Trinity knows that BTW has long and proud history of winning. You dont get to this point (with 25 wins and a Mr. basketball finalist) and not be good. Tonight's game is between two of the top teams in the state. I think it is a game that everyone has been waiting on. Trinity knows they will have to play well to win this game... as should BTW. Its sad that one of the best teams in the state will go home tonight... whomever wins. Both teams are good teams and both deserve a lot of respect.

 

The trash talk you are referring to is mostly from people that arent even associated with Trinity. And all of the trash stems from last year on here... Booker T was made out to be some super-team that nobody could take down or even compete with for that matter. Then, a bigger and more athletic team (that was supposed to be far superior to everyone) held the ball. You say it was to bring the guards out, but your coach said it was to take the refs out of the game (this was quoted in the paper). This is where people are confused, why would a team that superior need to hold the ball and why would you allow to stay close if you wanted the refs out of it... doesnt it make sense that if it is close they could make a call to change it.

The other reason people are talking trash is the constant state of talking about getting cheated by the officials. You have already brought it up several times this year. You said earlier it should be about the kids... let it be about the kids then. I hate that a team as good as BTW has to even mention anything else... if they get beat tonight, its not the officials fault... it is bc they played a good team. TSSAA assigns the referees for each Region... if it was in Memphis it would be the same officials. I hate when teams just feel like they are going to be cheated and bring things like that up... it is just an "out" in case they were to lose. No matter what happens, both TCA and BTW have had great season and nothing to be ashamed of already.

 

I do, however, agree with you that its time for a fun night of basketball. I am really looking forward to this game. We get to see two of the top teams in the state play tonight. I also dont fault you btw1993 as you are just backing your team and supporting them. I highly respect your passion and love for the boys. You have a great team year in and year out to support.

I really thank you for that comment. Enough said let play ball and at the end of the day we pray that no kids get injury. At the end of the game all the kids are winner!

 

Exactly... these are the kind of days you live for. Two GOOD teams. Great basketball environment. All of these kids have already accomplished a lot this season... my hope is that they carry it into life too. Nobody wants to see anybody injured... one of the girls team came in with a girl with torn ACL last night and that just makes me hurt.

 

Mitchell and BTW will definitely be some great games the next few years.

BTW, if you will find me early I will buy you those BBQ cheese fries and a Pepsi. It will fill you up and it will melt in your mouth. It can't quite compete with good ole fashion Memphis BBQ but its mighty close. Don't buy anything until you find me! Look forward to seeing you!

 

You should take him up on this... they are really good!!

The irony of this is that most of the trash talk is coming from the guy who does your color commentary during your broadcast? The same guy who complains about the officials the ENTIRE time during these broadcast making it sometimes unbearable to listen to.

      And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…

      Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads.

      Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.

      After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time.

      Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
