When did the city annex Everett Hills and Plain Field ( Jefferson, Irwin, Monroe, Madison Streets etc...)?

 

Long before I was born. The City opened John Sevier Elementary in 1968 and at that time that was far as the city extended then things started to move east as subdivisions were developed.

I've been told there are a number of linemen on the team who weigh 275+ now after another offseason in the weight room. Hopefully, that will translate to more attitude and physicality on the football field this fall. Last year we didnt get the best of anyone up front. Not even Lenoir City and they were tiny.

I saw. Where WB is advertising for assistant coaches. What happened to the ones they had?

The only one I knew for sure that was gone was the defensive coach because his kid was going to Maryville instead of WB. If I were a coach unless my kid was a very gifted athlete I would prefer them to go to another school. Seen this a million times over all the years I've watched high school football. It's called 'DADDY BALL'.

Drake Martin is going to help coach this year at WB. Spoke to him a few weeks back.

Hard to believe this is from 1973. Coach Bill Wallace of Friendsville going over things with his QB Darrel Clabough during a game almost 45 years ago. Bill Wallace was a real good man and well thought of in the town of Friendsville. A great basketball coach as well.

Did William Blount have their banquet?

I'm not sure because I didn't want to ask some of the parents I know. All I can say is if they haven't those coons have been in grandpa's freezer so long they'll be so tough Shad will have to bring his Dewalt reciprocating saw from the construction site to cut them.

William Blount never got a dinner!

Yes. Thanks to Barney no way they would skip it this year. And I must say schad did a gooder job on the music.

Shad was a good ole man
He lived below the mill
Shad had two daughters
And a forty-gallon still

One gal watched the boiler
The other watched the spout
And mama corked the bottles
And ole Shad fetched 'em out.

Shad slippin' up the holler
Shad try to make a dollar
Shad give me a swaller
And I'll pay you back someday.

The revenuers came for him
A-sippin' though the woods
Shad kept behind them all
And never lost his goods

Shad was a trader
When into town he'd come
Sugar by the bushel
And molasses by the ton.

Shad slippin' up the holler
Shad try to make a dollar
Shad gimme a swaller
And I'l pay you back someday.

Shad slippin' up the holler
Shad try to make a dollar
Shad give me a swaller
And I'll pay you back someday.
