Southwest Onslow's 'Gentle Giant"

good as always Chris. Now just start putting the box scores with the games and all will be good again.

Thought the same thing. When my boys played at swo 2001-2004 the newspaper did a great job breaking everything down. Weekly had a huge spread in the middle sports section. During swo run, tons of interesting photos and writeups.

I wish I could man. It's a struggle enough just to get what I can get from coaches on Friday nights with me being the only one left in the sports section. :(
You still do better than most. Its Thursday and Sampson Independent still has nothing from our game last Friday.

Print papers are struggling every where with all the digital coverage. Our local paper only comes out on Wednesday. By the time it covers Friday games, local news I and everyone else has already seen, read it on FaceBook, Twitter and local gossip blogs, ect. The town HS facebook/twitter pages has a lot of fans posting during games, along with stats. We cancelled our sub to the paper years ago, old news is no news.

Mr. Miller I’m not trying to make fun or belittle you. As someone else said on this thread, print media is just about done. You like me, may end up having to change your profession. I’ll be 62 this year. Try finding a job in a field you’ve never worked in at this age. Nobody said life would be fair. I’m just praying to get three more years and reach retirement age. Oh and don’t count on Social Security, they are giving all that to the illegals and others who never contributed a dime to the fund. I’m done Bitchin now.
 
I would loan you a little money but I'm trying to help raise funds for @Darkhorse04 so he can pay his dollar.

I stated in an earlier I would fork over the first .50 cents for Darkhorse04s sub. I will do the same for daagoob. ...... :cool: Two good guys on this forum, among many others.

I cashed in a winning lottery ticket for $2 and will share half and half.
 
You can send the 2 dollars to Otis/ care of West Craven High School.
Come on now Otis, I offered half and now you want it all ...... Geez. Besides I reinvested it back into lottery tickets. It would have to come out of my food and medicine money. I have to start on my trip back east the 22nd. Have to have the $$ for a SWO game while Im back. As it is wont be able to afford a hot dog and big orange. I will check under the stands for dropped change and popcorn at the game. But just on the home side as I figure the Dawg fans are tight wads and will have cleaned out all goodies under the visitor side.

Thank you @SWO-#1 🙂. Hope all is well in Missouri. I read that you follow another team over there that's doing decent this season. I myself am trying to go to Cherokee High School and take in one their home games this season in that awesome looking stadium. Trying to convince the wife now but she thinks I have an alterior motive with the Harrah's Casino there 😂. I'm not having much luck but I'm not a quitter

Take her to Bryson City to ride the train. You will enjoy it and it's just a few miles from Cherokee. https://www.gsmr.com/
