Always.  But seriously I dread this time of year. When the SuperBowl is over until scrimmages come in late July is a depressing time for me. Gotta keep myself amused some how.

Get out of the house and enjoy some of these other great high school sports

Yep. I try to see as much basketball as I can. This weeks weather has me bored and eating every thing I can find.

Speaking of eating… Just thought you might want to know the Mic Stand has opened a second location. It’s over here a couple of miles from my house in Bradford. Haven’t visited yet but planning on running the clock on it real soon. 
 

On a different note, you gonna watch the Stanks and Dburg play tomorrow night??

I saw where they have opened that up over that way. 
 

I am planning on going to the game.

i will say, how they divy up teams and into what "areas" make like little to no sense in some of those classes... like look at A; you have teams from Celina and Smithville playing against teams as far as the TN River... this makes sense... how... but i digress; i know our local school wants nothing to do with them and would prefer to play independent anyway, as it seems with about a third of the Upper Cumberland schools

That’s why the travel is so far for some teams.  A lot of smaller schools not making the change which leaves big gaps in the map.   But the idea of a true state championship should be appealing to most programs.

Scheduling & travel are ridiculous. Bethel Springs girls played Friday evening in Whiteville, then had to travel 99 miles to face South Fulton on their home court at 11:00 Saturday morning. Selmer boys having to travel 100 miles or more to Troy.

That problem has more than one culprit.  It began with the leadership in McNairy County not wanting to move up county games so the area tournament could be done earlier.  Even without the weather  it would have wound up the same way.  However with the weather the tmsaa was unwilling to move sectional back

Really.  Tradition is hard to change

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
