Cheerduck, thank you, my friend, I knew you’d know.
He doesn't even have to be fast just his height and stride 2 steps probably gets him 5 yards or more
Lol when u come over to maiden Friday night u gonna have the mouth dropped open and confused look 🤣🤣
There are 4 freedom alumni who are head coaches and all 4 have been successful as head coaches. I'm glad to see men I went to school with making an impact.
Hey you ! One other thing. The mouth drooped open and the confused look is called defensive driving (for seniors).
When you're at the game look for the big blue helmet the players come out of I'll be the big guy down there with it with a big beard in a big dog hoodie 🤣🤣
Always will remember Valdese fondly. My uncle was city manager there in the ‘60’s. Went from there to Roanoke Rapids, then to Sanford, which is where I was born. My parents moved back to Thomasville when I was nine months old. Also have a lot of family in Morganton, Marion and Lake Nebo.
I get your drift.😊
Furniture, I see the connection between Burke County and Thomasville... Also, congrats on the Bulldogs win over Montgomery Central earlier in the week. Hope to see T'ville deep in the playoffs.
I have this image in my head if I see you you're going to look like Ray Stevens from his music video The streak. 🤣🤣
Our team is still young and making some foolish mistakes, but they're winning. The Statesville game will be a good challenge as they are much like us. That game should be for the 2nd seed out of our conference. We need a home playoff game.
Amazing to learn that Bucky Reep was your uncle. He made quite an impact in that area. David Riggs is another one of those iconic men who grew up in Morganton and made an impact coaching at McDowell and across the state.
Bucky married my father’s sister, Jane. They were high school sweethearts. She died way too young, at 50, in 1986. He remarried but stayed very close to our family. Special guy.
I hate to hear that. My prayers and best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery...Saw Newton-Conover play at West Lincoln a week ago this past Friday. The field at West is one where you have a really good view from the sidelines. Was really impressed with how hard he (N-C quarterback Luangkhot) played, and with his calmness, too, even after some hard hits. He is obviously a leader. Hope he goes to one of the service academies.
You know, I been gone all day. Had lunch at my cousins and got some shopping done. What a fine day it's been. Went over to Walmart, didn't see/hear a single slider, and everyone seemed to be in such good spirits. I come home, log onto the internet, open the CVAC thread and there you are, AMD, with a big thick pencil rapping me across the knuckles, and calling me a bare old man. If you could only imagine what that would look like, me running down the road with nothing between me and heaven but air. It would look worse than the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. Hope you'll behave and try to be a kind young man, especially to your elders, like me, You evil blue specter that wakes others from a deep wholesome sleep.
Actually I was talking more about the ray Stevens character they keep interviewing in video 🤣
I suspected that our friend Cheerduck would have a better handle on the history of coaching in the area than I would. Wish I could call the names of the faces in the church. I feel sure Cheerduck would have picked them out pretty quickly, including some that I wouldn’t know.
Lol I was at the East Lincoln game and the score was 27-0 and they were still playing that darn Wolf sound. It's pretty cool if you're a Lincolnton fan but as a visitor it's annoying as hell 🤣🤣 Good luck to both teams the rest of the year.
ocdavis31, I even knew his dad "Bub" Reep. I never saw Bub that he didn't have a big chew of baccky in his jaw. He loved his baseball and slow pitch softball. My brother played for a very good team here in Hickory that was invited to play in a season opening tournament in Drexel one year by none other that Bub himself. Once my brother's team got there to play the first game they found that they were playing a Burke County All Star team. It was a tense match up but my brother's team prevailed and ended up winning the tournament. Bub was always full of surprises. I have an audio recording of him talking about Jug Wilson and their relationship from around the 1978 or 79 time frame. I need to copy it and send you a copy. Bub was a pioneer and helped the sports in Burke County more than he'll ever get credit for.
Darn AMD, you made a good weeks work in a day. 27 Grocery trips is covering a lot of territory. Hats off to you.
I’d appreciate that, Cheerduck. Only met Bub a couple times, but heard lots of stories, and my dad spoke often of Jug Wilson. My brother and I were talking about that on the way to the service. George Cushwa used to talk about Jug fondly. My brother coached for George.
