Got to see my boy today for the first time in 4 months. He is a grown man now. We have never had anyone in the military in my family. So when he told us after his first year of college he was joining the Marines we were taken back. I do know this. I look at our country with more awe. And when I look out our flag now I have to wear shades because the colors are brighter. Thank you for those that serve. My son was given a servants' heart from God and I knew that since he was small. He used those talents to serve his school and his football team as a team manager. Which could be difficult at times because he was serving his younger brother who was playing football at the time. Now he is serving his country and now his younger brother finds it tough to follow in his footsteps. Win or loose tomorrow night I win. Because Brothers get to see each other for the first time and embrace each other. safe travels to all and hope we can make it back before the end of the game. GO LIONS.!!! Fun Run is on his way. 

Ed, you get Momma Mo, Cheese Mo, and T Mo home safe and sound tomorrow.  Diamond Dave and I will be your eyes and ears until you arrive.  I got  your back.

I thought I would give a weather update.  It has now been raining in Jackson for several hours.  No let up in site.  The good news is that it is a fairly slow and steady rain.  No hard down pours as of yet.  Sure hoping it stays that way.  The current forecast show that the rain might end around 10am on Friday.  By kickoff, it is forecast to be 71 degrees and sunny.

With the weather the way it has been, the crowd might be down over what would normally be expected.  Here is the local broadcast information for the TCA and Adamsville game.

My broadcast partner, Dave McCulley and myself Stan Gerard will have the call of the game on 93.1fm.  It is a good strong radio signal.  I invite everyone to bring a portable radio and listen to the game from the stands.  Should you be out of radio range, we will have 2 different ways for you to listen in.  An online stream will be available at http://www.gracesportsradio.com .  You can also listen in via a cell phone by calling 605.468.5762.  Our Countdown To Kickoff Pregame Show will begin at 6:30pm central time.  Kickoff is slated for 7pm.  For our guests from Adamsville, this will be a TCA broadcast.  However, we always do our best to show respect and be fair to our opponent.  We will keep you constantly updated on scores of games from all over West Tennessee.  I do hope that whatever the games outcome, you enjoy our broadcast.

Safe travels BEM, and tell that son of yours that I'm proud of him too. High school athletics is a love of mine... it's taught me that perseverance conquers problems, made me respect others more, taught me life skills that I still use today, and introduced me to some wonderful people that I'd never have known otherwise so I don't view sports as "just a game" as it is to some. The team that your boy has joined takes those things to another level completely, and though I don't know him personally...he has my utmost respect.

    • Worst thing SC could do is get rid of Dyer. I agree with everything said above.
    • Jada Hart, Jasmine Bailey and Kaitlyn Patterson the first two being PG's are all good guards and can handle ball pressure and are good players. Raven Wells will be a good post. There were games this summer where any one of the one's I mentioned were in double figures. Gibson County will control TO's much better this year and they will press more and get back to playing faster. AA is down across the board. I have been all over watching ball. Alcoa jumped to AAA and Jackson County moved down. to A. No telling who wins it this year. I agree Union City, Westview and Gibson County will be a dogfight and must see basketball. Poster insuated that Gibson County has a mental block against Westview. Well give me Maddie Gray and we line up last year and they wouldn't have won a game. Let's see how Westview does this year. Their starting five last year had three transfers in it. Rogers from Obion, Trevathon from Greenfield and Gray from South Fulton. Looks like they swung and missed with the girl from Florida this year so let's see how they do playing with kids from Westview. Gibson County has a really good 7th grade class this year.I have done learned you play with what you got and work them hard and develop them and see what happens. Just keep battling and see what happens. I like our team this year. Very athletic. Every year is the same with injuries and can be catistrophic to any. I watched GC all summer long. South Side and GC was very evenly matched and was a classic war. Hope all stays healthy. 
    • I think Gibson County is a top five team this next season but I do agree they will drop off a lot after this year.  Westview lost a ton and will be down this season and hopes of returning to glass house again is slim.  The run they have had is super impressive!
    • My take on GC for this year: Based on what I saw last year and heard this summer, I’m not sure GC could surprise me next year with any outcome. Wilkins is a great coach - they could win the district and region and go to Murfreesboro. They could also come in third in the district and not get out of region. The two returning starters are very talented but Guru is right that they didn’t always play hard last year. The other three starters are good enough in their roles for GC to be successful. There is no depth. Foul trouble could be a problem - Wilkins may avoid it by playing a lot of zone. An injury would be catastrophic. I hope they have a big year and Wilkins rides off into the sunset in Murfreesboro because, without some significant transfers, there are some tough years coming in the next few.
    • Daniel Boone coming down to 3A makes this much tougher. They added a couple transfers to the Flores girl. Cocke Co, Northview, Greeneville, and Daniel Boone - only two headed to Murfreesboro.
