This is TOO FUNNY!! If you are referring to South Gibson, y'all have NO room to talk.  We had to sit in a choir stand that was so low you could barely see the field.  Didn't have enough room for our band much less our fans!! We should have brought our own bleachers......

It was an inside joke between me and him. He didn’t mean anything by it.

Actually I was talking about the Bulldog cheerleaders. The crown in the old field was so high bout all you could see was the players heads. Turf is almost flat.

Tomcat, my man, About 8 or 9 years ago the Milan mayor had some unflattering words to say about our throw together stadium. Not very many people took kindly to it. 

Most folks do not know that when SGC was built there was NOT a football stadium in the budget. Yes that is correct. It took several small miracles put together in a short period of time to get one. Several parents went to a local bank and signed a note to buy bleachers is just one example of the things that were done so we could have some kind of field....

How is Milan handling the COVID-19 crisis with their workouts?  

There was an article in the Jackson sun today about how Milan, Peabody and Union City are doing workouts. Milan is doing small groups indoors and outdoors 4 times per day. Kids are separated and getting weight training and conditioning everyday.

    • The only thing that was said at half time of the 45-0 game was Coach Story, he said: "I know y'all have been out there a lot, but kick-off team, y'all need to get down there faster!" Then he and the other coaches proceeded to go into the coaches office and we all went nuts!  It was the only time I can ever remember coaches not saying anything at half time. Definitely a great memory!!!
    • Boyd could actually be a grade below what he is now, but his parents didn't see the need to "redshirt" him like the other city school down the road would have pushed for....
    • too busy with flag football
    • Who invited the First Family of Hartsville? 
    • When Danny was a senior he was the quarterback on the 82 team and also the placeholder on extra points. At the end of the game Heritage scored a touchdown with very little time left and went ahead 9-0. On the following extra point Danny rose up and threw a perfect pass to one of his receivers which made it 11-0 and Heritage's first win against Maryville since the series started in 77. Maryville fans were highly ticked off because they felt like it was rubbing salt in the wound. The following year when both teams met again at Maryville  the Rebels ran away with the game and after the first couple of touchdowns they went for two points after each score for a pay back and the score was 45-0 at halftime. The following Monday Bob Gilbert the sports eiditor for the local paper bashed Maryville in an article called the Humilation of Teenagers and tore into Maryville even though he was a graduate of the school. Those were the good ole days when Heritage had decent teams and the rivalry between them and Maryville was a fun event to see.
