  1. Again, this still doesnt sound impressive but actually sounds worse. They only scored 3 points while allowing 12 in the final 4:30.

     

    To me, any HS that only scores 31 points in a game and loses by 20 should not be considered impressive but maybe i have different standards. I also dont feel that everyone should get a participation trophy.

     

    Maybe a better comment would be that Gallatin played hard but was out matched.

    Sorry, didn’t intend to impede on your impressive opinion. What I was trying to say, was the game was fairly close for 3.5 quarters, although WV was probably in control the whole game. As far as your participation trophy.......go study proctology.

  2. What everyone seems to forget: WV is not known for lighting up the scoreboard, which they might do when Stanley gets healthy, if Coach Brannen lets his athletes be athletes. WV’s calling card is defense. Their perimeter players can pressure shooters, without fear of getting beat off the dribble, due to having Clinkenbeard and Miles length to alter and block shots. Kids in today’s game either look to shoot the three, or get all the way to the rim......Bad recipe against a team built like WV. Unless you can get WV in foul trouble, and/or learn to hit mid range jumpers, WV will be extremely tough to beat.

  3. And there it is, no lesson learned because they're getting off with a slap on the wrist.

     

    From the article:

    An anonymous U.S. official told The Washington Post that charges against the three players have been reduced.

     

    A source told ESPN's Arash Markazi that there is surveillance footage of the players shoplifting from three stores inside a high-end shopping center, which houses Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Salvatore Ferragamo stores.

    I doubt that you would be gung ho about your own child being held or punished in China for ANY reason. If they are guilty, let UCLA and Coach Alford handle it. I see no need in blindly letting them be held or punished by a country that is known for having no respect for human life or human rights.
  4. So, it has to be by one person for anyone to be concerned? Is that the point you're trying to make? If so, it's sad that we've come to that. In February 7 people were shot to death in one day, 5 of them killed in just two hours, including a woman who was eight months pregnant. I know that's not sensational enough for some, but it should be. That's my point. It's daily, it's continuous and it goes on without outrage or debate. Why?

    Because we both know the answer to that. It would force many to look at facts that make them uncomfortable.
