My son is playing tomorrow and of course, I do not want to miss my son playing. I anticipate a huge crowd for tomorrow's game. I know the doors open at 3:00. What time do you think I should try to be there? I do not care to wait in line.
I saw Tazewell tonight. The Transfer has made them my pick to come out on top of the Southwest District. The Transfer is LEGIT!!! Possibly best penetrating slashing point guard in SWVA. And she is 5,11” , I’m guessing.
My son is in Vegas playing ball as well and we checked out LaMelo Ball yesterday. I was not impressed with him and I definitely would not call him a 5 star player. He's good, don't get me wrong but not 5*. My husband watched the Zion and LaMelo game. He said that it was not a good game. Zion would dunk and LaMelo would shoot 3s. The place was extremely crowded. They would not allow anyone in the doors :30 before the game. The police were there. We had to pick up my husband from the Cashman Center and they almost would not allow me to go in the parking lot. They said I was not allowed to attend the game.
We did watch Mac play. He played well. It's quite a sight to see him play in this type of competition.
I have a Nikon D3000....which lens is best to use for football and soccer shots? I LOVE taking pictures (for personal use only) but feel that my pics sometimes looks good and other times looks bad! When I use the action button, I feel they look worse. I think the "children" feature makes the action shots look better. Also, should I get an extra flash b/c I usually have to adjust the exposure of my pictures when I get home.
I hope you don't mind me asking questions, I paid good money for my camera....would like to be able to use correctly.
Best of luck to richlands.....from your neighbors in clintwood...
Thank you! Good Luck to you as well!!!!!
You must have been sitting on the opposite side of the stadium from us.....the band side was loud!!!!! I know me and 2 other people in my group woke up with no voices yesterday :)
As an Alum of our band, I believe their band was absolutely CLASSLESS!!! Playing the fight song while there was a moment of silence is disgraceful. As for the music, they are a carbon copy of Grahams band in the stands. Both schools drumlines play constantly. They both do alot of songs that Virginia Tech play. For Martins halftime show, it was pathetic. First off, anybody in the band world will tell you that playing a show with "Rock Tunes" is pure suicide in competition season. Judges are more apt to score a band that can sell a show with little or never heard music much, much higher. Secondly, they practice what we in the band world call "Park and Bark". That is when a band stands still and plays terribly loud. Their band had approx 130 members, and they moved a grand total of 27 times in the show. My Freshman year, 04-05, we had approx 120, and we had 113 sets. Thirdly, their music was extremely sloppy. The band as a whole was not in time. And in their final set, the lines were absolutly terrible. I realize that the football crowd as a whole likes bands that do "rock tunes" for shows. But if you look at the successful bands from the area over the years, they dont do it. Ill quit my rant here. But I could go on and on and on.
Also as an alum of the band, I thoroughly enjoyed Martinsville band way more than Richlands! I was in the band in the early 90s and they are still doing the same 'ol things! For competition, it's fine but it definitely does not pump up the crowd, which is the reason they should be at the games!!!
I thought the Martinsville band sounded great, their half time performance made me wanna dance too! As I recall, Richlands gave them a standing ovation, which is something that has not occurred with our own band!
I second Martinsville returning next Friday to perform!!!
Good luck to you guys tonight, I've been wanting to come to see you play but have to work late. Is there any broadcast on the internet for that game? There is a former PH kid over there now trying to keep up with how he's doing or if he plays? He was a good lineman over here. I have family that taught him and said he was a good kid.
The PH kid is doing great! He is a starting nose guard and was the center when the other center was injured!
