Slick Rick Vencill dropped Grundy. Grundy still wanted to play. He said they already had enough single a games. He needs to watch how he words things!

Sweaney. Was a heck of a loss for the G-men. You can not let good kids go like that. But it turned out well for him.

I thought you said you were going to be more POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have decided that I am part of the problem for Graham's decline in football recently. I have noticed that the public in general in Bluefield, VA is very pessimistic about Graham's footbal program as of late. I for one have decided to be more positive and encourage folks to support the team as much as possible. Complaints and excuses are contagious. I would like to remind the young men playing for the G-Men this year, of the G-Men tradition and encourage them not to let it fade away, it's not too late. You are G-Men and you should hold your heads high, I would also encourage any young men who would like to play football at Graham, but are not for some reason or another, to go out for the team and play...you'll never get these years back. You may regret not going out for the team, or not playing. Everybody who supports Graham has a responsibility to help build the team up and not put it down. I've done my fair share of complaining about it, but I'm going to try to turn that negative energy into positive and support the kids as much as possible..... I'm getting old....don't want to be bitter....and old.... __________________ I thought you said you were going to be POSITIVE!!!!! Either you are or you aren't.

This mornings paper (monday) quotes Tazewell County School Building supervisor saying they will be closing another high school in the near future. What does he know that everyone in the county does not know? Which high school is the one to close?

This team of 2004, was made up of the freshman and sophomores that beat a pretty good Bradshaw led Graham team in the 2002 region 4 finals. To say they were not very good is totally off base.

I guess that is why they saved Lockhart to pitch against Abingdon instead of Grundy last night. Sounds like someone got caught looking ahead!

Baseball final from Richlands

Boy's coach is going to be fishing guide on New River in summers and other times during year. Will make triple or more from this compared to basketball. Girl's is a whole different element. Key word is PARENTS.

Grundy 10 Marion 2 Final

Grundy and Taz did not play Monday. Grundy plays marion today and Graham on friday.

Announced on channel 6 that as early as 2012 Bluefield College will field a team and play at Mitchell Stadium. Applications for coaches is on its web site. Interesting?

Grundy lost the first game 3-2. Was leading the second game 2-0the last I heard.

The sad thing is they (the young) are going to try to blame someone else for the Obama tenure. Just like the Obama administration blames Bush. The young people want to be heard, but want no part of something that goes wrong. Taking a hand out is far more easy than getting your butt out of bed and going to work.

Same old story. Going to cut athletics from the budget again. This only gets people's panties in a wad, and they raise hell. The school board knows if they go on record to cut music, art and band the public looks the other way and says nothing. Looking at the numbers in our county, you are talking less than 100,000 towards sports. They are in for fuel and coaching contracts only. The board of supervisors provided each school an activity bus and the coaches drive them. The only reason some kids come to school is for sports. What happens to their budget when they start seeing kids jump across state lines to play sports. The math is simple, each kid that leaves cost the system an average of $5200.00.

Do not leave petey ball out of the mix.

I think he would had been called for a clip or a hit out of bounds.

You got to remember they are kids. It is the parents who once again are showing they are not mature enough to handle adversity.

It was not a double technical. Kelly was called for a foul, mcgee threw the ball in Kelly's face for a technical. Richlands shot a one and one, grundy shot two technical free throws. No one from Grundy got a technical.

Two fans from Richlands. Both men were men in their upper 60's. The head coach from Richlands dad was the one who jumped the other man coming down the aisle. That was it until the one who got jumped went outside and collapsed. The police than came in and removed Mcgee from the gym. Reminded you of Grundy and Richlands of old.

When a coach goes out on the floor to the top of the key and confronts an official during play, he deserves what he got. Does not matter if the refs were bad or good, you have to talk to them at the proper time, not when action is still in play.

Wrong. County teams played last night in Council. I am sure 81 and 460 are cleared better than the road to Council. If that was the problem, why did they ask to move it to Bluefield and play? If you can get to Bluefield, you can get to Grundy. The roads are clear here.

The hold up is Marion.

Principals will decide Monday if or when Graham plays Richlands and Carroll.

will play them on Sat. 6 o'clock and 8 o'clock
