Come and listen to my story about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed,
And then one day he was shootin at some food,
And up through the ground come a bubblin crude.

Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.

Well the first thing you know ole Jed's a millionaire,
The kinfolk said "Jed move away from there"
Said "Cross Creek" is the place you ought to be"
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Helmsley

County Champs that is. Swimming pools, Football Stars.

Had to come up with something since not many have interest in this ballgame this coming Friday Night.  I really hate it for our friends out at Heritage that are going through this rough time with their football program. Not seen a program around here go through something like this unless you travel up the road 10 or 12 miles into Seymour  to what was once called The Harrison-Chilhowee Lions coached by Lester McCarter back in the 60's and 70's. I used to think that was bad as it could get until now.

I remember one year when the basketball teams picture was in the paper and they either had just 6 or 7 players but the whole team looked like the remake of The Adam's family.

Lurch was tough down low. He couldn't run the floor worth a flip though.

I should have been more specific. A team full of Cousin Itt's are what they looked like.

They made The NY Times after breaking a 138 game losing streak in basketball in 1973.....

I would just about bet Harrison-Chilhowee Lions could of been close in years without a win in football also. I have most of those old Peek Size Football guides from at least 1945 until now and most of them either had 0-8, 0-9 or they didn't turn in their material to company and it had no information some years. Kind of like Hamontree does Murphy Fair when he sends him a packet to fill out and send back. I bet Hamontree thinks it's a collection agency when he gets that in the mail and throws it away before his wife finds it.
