High School Football Re-Classification
Posted Wednesday, June 11, at 7:15 PM
It's official. The TSSAA approved a new classification plan for high school football beginning with the 2009 season. It was a narrow 5-4 vote that came down Wednesday at the annual Board of Control meetings that decided the change rather than keeping things status quo...

Do you ever have any unanswered questions or odd thoughts from time to time? I sure hope I'm not the only one. Here's my latest addition: - Sports can be overrated in the great scheme of things, but I'd be miserable without them. - I wonder what the world will be like in 10 years...

No More Pacman!
Posted Thursday, April 24, at 7:10 PM

I can hear the celebration as well as the relief all over this state. Finally. No more Pacman Jones. This guy has been a thorn in our side for a long, long time. And thanks to Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys, we want have to hear about or be embarrassed by his wild antics any longer...

I keep a personal journal and I may post some of my thoughts from time to time. Feel free to post your feedback or add your own "random thoughts." - I'm not much of a morning person. - I hate lengthy and meaningless conversations. - I live for the fall and football season!...

Preds and the playoffs
Posted Thursday, April 17, at 10:23 AM

I'll be the first to admit it….I'm not a big hockey fan. I'm a bandwagon Predators fan at best, but I always follow how they do all season and catch some games on the tube from time to time. And, of course, I always want them to do well. It's our team and it is really great to have two winning professional franchises here in the midstate...

Simply the Best
Posted Tuesday, April 8, at 12:24 PM

What else is new? Tiger Woods will no doubt be the man to beat when the 2008 Masters gets underway Thursday in Augusta. And why wouldn't he be? He's been on a roll like most of us have never seen in the game of golf. He is hands down the best player in the world, and we should all sit back and enjoy his greatness. Despite my bias towards Phil Mickelson, I have developed more and more respect for Tiger and his game through the years...

As Good As It Gets?
Posted Monday, March 17, at 4:56 PM

It's only just begun. But it seems like college basketball can't get much better than the games played over the weekend at the SEC Tournament in Atlanta. Every game was decided by 11 points or less with most of them going to the final buzzer or even overtime...

March Was Made For Sports Fans
Posted Monday, March 3, at 4:03 PM

Is it just me or is March not the best sports month of the year? High school basketball moves to Murfreesboro for two weeks of great state tournament action. Spring sports begin to crank up at high schools all around the state. Major League Baseball heats up with spring training in sunny Florida and Arizona...

Posted Monday, February 18, at 9:51 PM

...And they don't go unnoticed. Following the horrific tornado damage in Lafayette a few weeks back, the Macon County High School basketball teams were forced to host their Senior Night on the road at Cannon County after their gymnasium was damaged during the storm. ...

A Sports Week to Remember
Posted Saturday, February 9, at 11:34 AM

This past week has to go down as one of the most memorable in sports history. Eli Manning led the double-digit underdog Giants to the improbable Super Bowl upset of the once-invincible Patriots. I'll have to admit I didn't see it coming, but I sure hoped it would. ...

Home, Sweet Home
Posted Monday, February 4, at 2:56 PM

Hello again Shelbyville and Bedford County. I'm happy to be back in my hometown. It's been a wild ride over the last several years and I just wanted to update you on my ventures. Following my days from 1999 thru 2001 in the T-G sports department, I went on to graduate from Middle Tennessee State University in December of 2001 with a bachelor's degree in Physical Education and minors in Coaching and Journalism...
