Courage is FEAR, that said it's PRAYERS.

So after all that I was right, East Burke did win! I NEVER, not one time said ANYWHERE in my post that Watauga was a bad team. IF you can find that in my post please show that to me! Just because I predict another team to win does not mean I am implying another team is BAD. Let me ask you this, when I predicted McDowell to beat ACR in another thread, do you think I was implying ACR was a BAD team? NO, don't be so defensive about my statements. I just felt that East Burke had the better team and would win the game. If I felt Watauga was a bad team I would have said so. I know how close you played ACR, and I respected your teams ability. So get off your little high horse, and stop reading things into what I write.

Our record does not mirror how well we have played this year. AC, you are sure that East Burke won implying that Watauga has a bad team. Yes, we are 1 and 10, but we played you to 10 points up here and had you on the ropes their, enough that you all pressed us up to the last horn. I am in no way implying that you all are not good, you are. In fact if you all make it to the final 4 this year I would be very happy for you. We played Freedom to within 10 on their home floor and East Burke to within 2 on their home floor. We have had only 3 bad games - 2 to South and 1 to mcdowell at their place. Every other game we have been in. No, we have not had much success here in the past, but if you think for one minute that these girls are not trying you might find yourself in a dogfight in the middle of the conference tournament. You all have had the same coach for years, our coach comes in the day before the season starts - implements a new system and these girls pick it up quick enough that they legitimatly compete night in and night out in every game. That to me is more impressive then a team that is loaded and finds winning easy. These girls know that every time they step on the floor they are the underdog, even tonight against Alexander. But, they never quit fighting - they never quit beliveing that tonight might be the night that they beat the big guys. You wonder why no one else responds on these boards - Well I can tell you this - It is difficult to work so hard for a goal and have come so far in becoming competitive and have someone assume that you are a bad team because your record says so. If you only new what these girls have been through in the last year.

By the way, we keep on fighting even though we lost a heart breaker last night 81 - 80 in overtime. 80 points -

Good Luck with such a great team!!!

no disrespect intended for your girls... i think we all know how good they are this year relative to years past... and i don't think a fan who has seen them compete would tell you they quit... those girls play hard all the time... never ever quit... they are in a tough conference... if you followed all the posts on this and other boards, you would see that several folks picked watauga to upset someone this season... east, south... probably not the top 3, and maybe not south with their play of late, but folks were expecting an upset...

it seems that you are very proud of your team, and rightly so... i am convinced they have come a long way, and have played on a different level... early in the season i recall a ref saying they would finish the season 4th in the conference... while i didn't agree, i knew they were better, and folks have noticed...

by the way, reynolds presses the whole game pretty much night in and night out... the score doesn't matter... the only times i have seen them stop is if they are up by 30 in the 4th quarter, or if they are playing a half court trap, which they did hurt watauga with as well... they mix it up, but that team never stops pressing... just the way the stay on their toes i guess... seems like they do it to get their tempo and not allow teams to get in a good offensive rhythm... not b/c they are scared of losing if they stop pressing... it is their style of play and has been for 3 years... nothing new...

SURE = Indisputable

Predicted = Forecast

Two very different meanings - Two very different implications

As a matter of fact, if you would take the time to follow this and other message boards you would know that I said and I quote "McDowell will beat ACR tonight, I have no doubts in my mind", that looks like a pretty indisputable statement to me. I even went on to "forcast" a final score of McDowell winning, so I made both an indisputable and a forcast statement in the same thread. You are just a rookie on these boards and really don't know what you are talking about. The other people who have followed these boards know that I respect all the teams in this conference and would not disrespect any of them.

Well then this rookie is glad that you are SURE about your complete dominance of these boards and the NW4A and I PREDICT you will continue to make such enlightening luminous statements on the inferiority of other peoples opinions.

So I was right.....East Burke won. I have been catching a lot of grief over the fact I was sure that East Burke would win, and for some reason, I am right. Now had I been wrong, I could understand people blasting me, but the fact I am right, doesn't seem like anyone could complain about my statement. Oh well, I guess people just don't like my opinion about how games will come out, but I am going to say I am SURE MCDowell will beat Freedom tonight. Now Freedom, don't take that personal, I don't think you are a bad team, I just think McDowell is better tonight!

mcdowell-freedom

The lady titans beat the patriots 73-47 tonight. An embrassing game for the lady patriots. It was close at the half but mcdowell came out on fire in the 3rd. This sets the stage for the big rematch with reynolds friday night. It should be a good one

Wow, after following these two teams all year i wouldn't dare say mcdowell will win for sure friday night. I hope your right but acr has a great team and mcdowell will have to play their best game of the year to win. Either way it should be a five point final.
