No one picked SV, yet they almost won the game! So what does everyone think is the problem with Paintsville????? One thing that may have made this closer than it should have been might be that Bundy wasn't there tonight. Does anyone know where he was? Also, I can't explain it, but the defense for some reason just doesn't appear to be there. The boys are getting the fouls called on them, but.....I don't know. I think I will just stop there. I will say that our Offense has looked alot better the last couple of games. Maybe coach is just fixing things one at a time before tounament time. He is the one win almost 500 wins, not us. So he should know what he is doing. Good win tonight Tigers! Just keep working hard! We're all still behind you! :ylsuper: :dancingpa

I wouldn't count on that just yet! That has happened the last two weeks and look at what has happened in the end! Seatle may be riding a big wave into this but the Steelers are riding a Tsunami! Should be a tough one!

It doesn't matter who beat who where. Same thing every year. They beat each other no matter where they are!

You took the words out of my mouth. They just didn't look to be in any sort of sync at all. I have been reading a lot about P-burg lately. 1st time I have seen them play this year. I was impressed. I thought they looked pretty good tonight. Not only is the 57th going to be a good touney, Looks like the 15 is as well! Should be fun!

Good Job Tigers! Man the 57th tourney is going to be wild this year. I can't wait!

Well here they are! Let's hear it! WYMT Mountain Top 10 - Boys!!! Week 8 1. South Laurel 2. Barbourville 3. Morgan Co. 4. Somerset 5. Perry Co. Central 6. Clay Co. 7. June Buchanan 8. Belfry 9.

This was a really good high school basketball game. Big win for the Eagles. I have seen a lot of post on here lately giving the officials down the road. I must say that I thought that they did a really good job tonight. Of course they are always going to miss one or two, but IMO it was a very consistant game. A great game to watch tonight. Can't wait till next time! I hope my Tigers can pull the next one out!

So it was the worst game they had played this season and they couldn't get any shots to drop. OH! and the refs cheated and the fans are rude. BLA BLA BLA BLA! It's the same ole thing every time some one get's beat by Paintsville, whether it is at home or on the road. BLA BLA BLA! BMR has the refs in his back pocket! BLA BLA BLA! As for the fans on the stage. I was on the stage that night and only one fan did what you said and it was handled. As for the other fans you are wrong! Now as for players and coaches, unless a fan comes on to the floor, a player and a coach should not become verbally involved with a fan at all, that goes for all teams. Have you ever heard the old saying "sticks and stones"? Apparently not. And Sidelines got suspended for defending a player? :confused: Funny. Sorry about the side track there fellas. I just hate when people start slinging slander. :irked: Back to the thread. As I said in an earlier post: Tigers 72 Eagles 62 Oh ya just a reminder. Don't wear a jacket it will be HOT in there tonight. :fire:

I may not know that much. But, I do know that it doesn't matter what match ups there are and it doesn't matter what their records are. When these two teams hook up, it is always a good game. that being said. Tigers 72 Eagles 62 Here is the only guarantee I am giving. IT WILL BE HOT IN THERE! So don't wear a jacket. See ya at the game.

WYMT Mountain Top 10 - Boys!!! Week 7 1. South Laurel 2. Paintsville 3. Barbourville 4. Somerset 5. Perry County Central 6. Morgan Co. 7. Lee 8. Belfry 9. Clay 10. JBS WOW! Well I know this one will be getting a few post! So let's hear it! :laugh: :scared: :eek: :argue:

Just goes to show how important free throws are.

Congrats to Coach Williams and the team on a Big District win!

Looks like the Tigers showed up tonight. Anyone have any stats on this one? Good win Tigers! :thumb:

Here are a few names for you: AGE NAME POS MLB TEAMS YEAR AT PAINTSVILLE YANKEES 17 Greg Gagne SS MN,KC,LAD 1979 20 Otis Nixon OF NYY,CLEV,MON,ATL 1979 BOS,TX,TOR,LAD,MN 22 Ed Olwine P ATL 1980 19 Orestes Destrade 1B NYY,PIT,FL 1981 21 Bill Lindsey C CHIW 1981 22 Tom Barrett 2B PHI,BOS 1982 19 Phil Lombardi OF NYY,NYM 1982 20 Dan Pasqua OF NYY,CHIW 1982 20 Jim Corsi P OAK,HOU,FL,BOS,BAL 1982 18 Eric Plunk P OAK,NYY,CLEV,MIL 1982 17 Jose Rijo P NYY,OAK,CIN 1982 BREWERS 20 Glenn Braggs OF MIL,CIN 1983 (I Played softball with him at Dewey Lake that year) 20 LaVel Freeman DH MIL 1983 22 Michael Birkbeck P MIL,NYM 1983 20 Chris Bosio P MIL,SEA 1983 21 Mark Ciardi P MIL 1983 19 Jim Morris P TB 1983 (The movie "THE ROOKIE" was based on Jim Morris!) 18 Dan Murphy P SD 1983 21 Jeff Parrett P MON,PHI,ATL,OAK,COL,STL 1983 21 Dan Plesac P MIL,CHIC,PIT,TOR,ARZ 1983 So quite a few nice players have played on the field! This is only the players that were actually on the Paintsville roster. NOT counting the ones that may have played there from other teams. I couldn't find any stats for the 1984 season. I really don't remember them playing that year, but I could be wrong. If anyone else may know maybe you could help me out.

That's what they said about Warrick Dunn also. But, I hope he does good no matter where he goes.

Well looks like Paintsville will probably drop some this week. Especially if they loos another at the WYMT. Lowest scoring game in WYMT history tonight.

ONE GAME HYPE? You must NOT have read about, watched or listened to any of the games prior to that ONE GAME. BUT, that is your opinions, Apparently this must have been the first time you have seen him play. Every kid has an off night every once in a while. The thing that makes him so good is that, you usually don't see him score. You will sit and watch a hole game and when you see the stats he had 25 to 30 points. Maybe one of those will be a three. And NO they are'nt mostly from the foul line. What the kid has, is called a mid-range jumper. NOT just a glorified 3-point shot. Also Vanhoose, Grimm, Bundy & Pugh ussually throws in their share. The Tigers just couldn't get in a rythm tonight. I have found that when watching any basketball game to not judge a player just from one performance, because the next time they play they will make you look like you have no idea what you are talking about. Also you don't get mentioned as All State as a very avg. player. I must say great job to the Dragons coach for having a game plan and sticking to it. He kept his players under controll and didn't allow them to start and try running with the Tigers. He slowed the game down and stayed with it no matter the score and his plan worked. Good win for the Drangons and good luck on their season. Good Luck to the Tigers on the next game at the WYMT!

In the 70s, 80s & early 90s. It was one of the best in the state. Considering the Yankees built it for them. It has slipped a little in recent years, but is still a very nice field. Would like to see a sun screen brought back to center field and maybe cover the seats behind home plate. I would say it is the second best in the region behind only Pikeville. There is an idea, turf it up baby. LOL! It is almost that time again, can't wait to hear the leather a poppin'!

This is accually a JC & MC post. But, I don't even have a dog on the JC bench. I have know all the players and the coaches, except coach Starnes, since they were all knee high to a grass hopper. And! I can not see any of them stooping to the level of say anything racial! The coaching staff at JC would never go for it and the kid would be handled interanly. ie... suspended! PLease, we ALL (that is anyone in KY) get stereo typed enough in this area. Great win for the Eagles and can't wait to see them and the Tigers go at it next week. Should be a Great game!

Well it is kinda like any other one that is out there. You are there until you are knocked off. I still like it though. Makes for some interesting conversations. There are a lot of teams in the mountains that probably deserve to be there. But a big win here and there will put them there. Kudos to WYMT for making high school basket even more fun! :dancingpa
