Expoaeitall…………..I love it how you tell everyone to "put the past in the past", and then continue to type one of the longest posts in this board's history. Plus, you then talk about doing some investigation and make several calls. Not exactly leaving it in the past.
You appear to not want to give some posts on this board any validity because they contain things that were being told second hand, but pretty much everything you cite you were told is second hand. Classic.
"One person said it was said in the locker room before the game, which that can’t be believed because opposing teams don’t go in each other’s locker room"   Hey...…..I think that was me. Never said it was a GC team member in the locker room. Actually, don't think I ever said they person who said that about Wise was in the locker room. Believe I said it was overheard when Wise was in their locker room. Is your misquote of me an example of your objective investigation? Love it.
Also pretty cool how your "objective" investigation lists 4 negative things about GC. Fair and balanced...…...right?
How about you talk to some fans from Union and see what their thoughts are on the Central basketball team? Maybe check with some other teams also? Just maybe you will find out that there are other teams that have some issues with Central. 
Go to some games and make up you own mind. Until then you are just repeating things you were told, and incorporating your own spin. 
Back to the game...…...if GC plays like they did against Lebanon, we will lose by 15+. Hope both teams play their best, and it is a good, clean game. Safe travels to everyone making the trip.
 

I'm just glad GC played Lebanon last night instead of Central, Battle, or Union....let alone Graham.   Devils would have been taking an early seat.  And no offense to Lebanon cause those kids played their butts off.  

Yep. I'm 99% positive GC & Graham will be playing for the Region Championship. Just like last year.

Should he have had a safe place and some crayons?  Did you see his record at GC? If I don't do my job the way it's supposed to be done, my employer is going to be critical of me. If you're a football coach and you can't handle that, then that tells me all I need to know about you as a coach. Having said that, I do wish him luck in the future but it's going to take a lot of changing.

If Central was more consistent, they could be very dangerous this postseason.

I hope he is. 

Obsess much?  This a thread about teams from the East so I'm not sure as to why you would post that, at least on this thread.

As a life-long GC fan, I am very confused as to how I should react to this post. Maybe Who? can help me? Since this is a basketball thread, assume my response should be based on basketball.
1. Well...…..we are pretty good. Even after losing one of the two best players in the Region, we are still a pretty good team. So...…..not sure if I should be arrogant and tell Who? to take off the letterman jacket he bought at Goodwill and take a long look at himself in the mirror. 
2. I have no issues with the way Scottie is coaching...…...dang it. Do not guess I can reply blaming the coaches. 
3. Hmmm...…...think it is pretty obvious we are not as good as we were last year, and not as good as we were at the beginning of this year. Really.....only one 2A team will win at "the end". Everyone else will lose. I do not think we will repeat as champions, so I guess we will be losers at the end. So...……...should my response be...………….(See what I did there? Silence.)
Who?...….please help me. I am so confused. 
 

Anything other than the district championship is decided by coin toss. 

Corrected.  GC won.

Very odd year for the Big East.  You have no great teams, and just 2 solid teams (Marquette, Villanova).  The rest of that conference is a slog of mediocrity (every team from 3rd to last has exactly 3 Ws in the W column).  It’s not unrealistic that just 2 teams from the Big East make the NCAAs if all 8 teams from 3rd-10th keep beating up on each other.  I say that to say this: I couldn’t think of a better situation for a talented, but raw, kid to land if said kid were to play in a major conference. 
 
His offense has been legitimate on a major D1 level, and he deserves all the credit for that.  Defense is still poor at best, but that’s also a team-wide affliction, and why Georgetown is sub-100 in the NET.  
 
I’m happy that he’s succeeding thus far at this level; it exceeded my expectations.  I do hope that he turns some attention to defense.  That’s the difference in playing professionally stateside and playing professionally in a country that doesn’t speak English.
 
I wish him the best.

Unbanning myself for this one...

Today is 1-9
Happy Chris Akers Day!!

I thought it would be a closer game but I wasn't going to be surprised if GC lost today.  I just hope the team has some energy left to start playing the games that matter come Wednesday.  They got another stretch of 3 games in 4 days.  Union played today too so they are kinda in the same situation.

As did GC.

I've been salivating for this. Arguably the two best teams in this area. I think it's going to be a hell of a game. Hope DB wins... But they probably won't. Lol

Also Morristown East over Ridgeview girls 63-56

8 of your 12 are all in the same conference.  Whichever team survives M7 and Region D will have truly earned it.

I was chatting with someone from this site last night about some of these girls playing on the same AAU team.  I was also talking to the dad of one of the girls mentioned in this thread a few times.  He has been a close family friend of mine for 38 years.  His younger daughter is only an 8th grader and plays for the same AAU team as a lot of these girls.  We have some seriously talented girls coming along that are learning how to compete from a lot of the girls mentioned within this thread. 
I've said it for years on this site, football gets all the attention but girls basketball and softball are by far and away the most consistently dominant programs across SWVA.

Rematch for Region D this year?  Unless there is a complete meltdown, I don't see anybody in the region that can take down  Graham or GC.

Looks like Graham's defense picked up where they left off from last season.

I don't hold Graham responsible for you.  I'm sure not all of the fans from Bluefield are as arrogant and obnoxious as you are on here.
