Bad news out of Abingdon tonight ...... Stripes got loose around 4:30 and some Bearcat cheerleaders in a 1994 Toyota Tercel lured him into their car. He was dropped off at the local Japenese Steakhouse with a ransom note demanding a rematch of the Cats / Foul-cons brainiac chess match. The teams could not be assembled in time to meet the 6 p.m. deadline. Stripes ended up in the chow mein. RIP Stripes

Easy Big Blue Aluminum.....I can remember when you were in high school and you and your posse flipped up your hair like them 'Flock of Seagulls' boys.

Did Terry Smith get some ribs at pre-game without a backbone? That my friends is what Micky D's markets as the infamous ' McRib ' sandwich!

You can't blame O.J. for this one fellows.

Was it one of the fat guys or are they taking Silly Mitchell back to TTown as the grand marshall for a parade after beating Richlands girls?

Two fat guys must have been rasslin over a hot dog or something but one jumped on the others back and rode him down to the floor like a Grundy rassler. The cops ran both of them out of the gym

I hate to say I told you so but it looks like Coach Kojak Cochran has the Lady Blues firing on all cylinders. What is it; 4 games in a row ??? That has to be the longest winning streak in years. The girls are starting to peak; a SWD championship is within their grasp and Coach is the automatic COY!

..and qbird will be the waterboy

Is that Lane Kissin right behind ole Chokey gettin ready to lay an Adidias to his sorry rear end ?

The Moose won't lose another game....he has them just where he wants them

My bet is you won't see Bane around school for a while after that hissy fit he threw Friday night. His 5 minute temper tantrum will probably cost him big time. The Marion principal ain't to be fooled with. What was up with the Hurricane footware? Green shoelaces and mud caked cleats ???? It made them look slower than they actually were. I would make Bane get some soap and water and scrub up the shoes along with his mouth.

Leo............throw us some college losers out here. I have about $150 left from my welfare check (decided not to pay the ex any child support this month; might buy the little brats something for Christmas though) and need to invest it in something sure fire. I spent the rest on beer, smokes, and videos and decided to waste what is left.

The Mule gets it right again......Mr. Childress was his name and a gracious gentleman he was. Some more info.......The Hardees' location was about where a backstop for PE and some recreational softball / baseball was played. In the early 60's, there was no Second Street bridge. Traffic either took a left back to Front Street or a right on Allegheny. If you went strraight on Second Street, it was a dirt / gravel road that terminated about where Hardees is located. A softball / baseball field was actually located where the Magic City / Community Home Care complex sits. The football field was long gone by now, having gone to the RHS campus (sitting 90 degrees to the present stadium btw). The football field that was used in town sat about where the popo back parking lot is located. A baseball field was located there as well. The poor fellows that played in that location probably thought that was field turf compared to the brickbats on the old casket factory field (actually located a bit closer to the old Kern's Bakery store).

Mule is right. At the time of his visit, an article was written in the Richlands Mess detailing this gentleman's namimg of the team. As I recall, the team was playing either at the site of the old casket factory or in the field behind where the current Richlands popo station is. The gentleman was a student writing for the school newspaper (or yearbook) and during a play, the blue jersey clad gridironers stomped up a cloud of dust in their wake. The dust cloud reminded him of a tornado; hence the name. Of particular interest is that the nickname is singular and was intended to be singular. The collective group is a 'blue tornado'.

There were three wise men passing through the G-Man halls today carrying gifts of gold helmets, frankinscense Nikes, and Gatorade myrrh
