Please no more Wheeler vs. Norcross comments until they actually win their games Thurs. Wheeler should beat Hiram, but everyone predicting a Norcross win over Savannah should think twice. No they aren’t ranked natinonally and don’t have D-I signees, but Savannah is a very well coached team that doesn’t succumb to pressure. They will come in the with the us against the world mentality and give Norcross all they can handle. Should be two great games, but let’s not crown any champions until they win the game.

Keep on underestimating the former Number 1 team in the state. Savannah is 29-2 lost one to Mundy’s Mill and the second to Johnson-Savannah. Norcross is mistaking if they think they are going to run my alma mater out of the gym. I just hope the zebras stay out of the game and let the kids play and decide the game.

Man would you all please stop it already? There is NO WAY in hell that Savannah can beat Norcross. If they had mercy rules in baksetball you all would be headed down 85 South by halftime.

Jay-Live your comments may be true, but having seen Savannah play Douglass this past weekend, Savannah lives and dies from the 3pt line. If their shots fall early it will be a very interesting game. You can’t sit back in a zone and if you give em any cushion they will pull a jumper from 20-25 feet out. Once you start to respect the 3pt shot, their guards are quick enough to drive past to the bucket. If their shots don’t fall it will be a Norcross blowout. Savannah was up by 18pts on Douglass when their shots were falling, when the shots didn’t fall, Douglass closed the margin to 3pts.

I have to agree with Will on Norcross but also you guys have to understand that anything can happen On any given night. I am just saying” Norcross is good yes we all agree but who wants it more Norcross or Savannah.

My take also is on Dunwoody will win and there division they are also a talented Team no douth But they also have to put a little more effort into concentration on what’s ahead The Guard Grayson has been executing and getting his team involved by making the necessary assist and playing defensively that is what Guards do Graham and Singleton need to focus on posting up under the basket so that they can block every shot that comes Towards them sometimes they can get out of control and it almost seems as if each of the players are trying to out shine each other Than playing as a team and that cannot work if they are trying to win a championship.

Wheeler will beat Hiram there is no question there is no time to think about whether or not your team Has what it will take to win the Champions if you don’t already know then you are in for a reality check Will the real ball players and the Talented few bring you’re a Game so we as Fans can feel that our money Is well spent coming to you ‘ll games.

I with you Chuck on Dunwoody I feel they will win the championship in Macon Singleton does what he is supposed to do but it is not all about him. There are others on the team which allows him to be The all American, if you watch him play he tries to exclude his tem mates. Singleton there is no I in Team work, team Effort you no Lebron James Get your Team involved the coach at Dunwoody he pretty much allows these bys to do whatever they want to, so long as he is winning he does not give a crap as to who passes or who execute well. Singleton is a very rude obnoxious person who has a hidden anger problem I went up to him once to speak to him as a fan and he was very angry and cocky and as a fan I think he forgets that we purchased the tickets , we Shout and holler for the team as team spirit, we drive miles away to come to the games, Mr singleton because of us the fan you got that all American Don’t p** off the fans without us you are NOTHING.

You guys better not underestimate Carver-Columbus. This is the same team that was number one most of last year before being upset in the early round of the tournament. Don’t be deceived by their 9 losses. Nine of the starters played on the state championship football team. They started jelling in late January. Watchout Dunwoody!!!!

FAN, how many Dunwoody games have you seen? Most fans AND SCOUTS like the fact that Singleton is very UNselfish. At times, he is probably too unselfish and it can sometimes be detrimental to their team! He could average about 35 points a night if he wanted to, instead of about 20. He is a man among boys and can do whatever he wishes….and he wishes to get his teammates involved when possible. I really don’t think you are well-versed on what you talk about. I am sorry he didn’t want to hear your life story or maybe some incredible words of wisdom from you after a game, but don’t take it out on him. Maybe you can get his autograph in Macon and pull it out in two years when he comes to your city in a NBA uniform.

Mr Singleton if you are adressing me and what I said earlier then if you are upset good “I dont give a rat A* I call it how I sees it, I dont need to tell you a story or have you read a book to me beside you are not all that. You do however have an obligation to the fans and to the kids watching and to the public to carry yourself with respect and treat each of us with respect, you need to learn some respect and to be Humble especially if people are spending money to come to the games,If it made you upset “Tought luck I dont care. I dont need your autograph keep it I am not intrested. If you make it to the NBA good luck but remember this “It PAYS TO BE HUMBLE BIG SHOT I am still a fan Of Norcross and Dunwoody with or without your approval.

Derrick I like how you once again put another team to beat Westlake!!!!! The lions would undefeated if not for loosing to Norcross by 5 points AND ANOTHER TEAM FROM PA BY 5 in a Christmas tournament in Florida. Coach Rogers went to Turner just like you , You need to stop sleep walking, and realize that Westlake is ranked #1. not Columbia!!!!! Get your picks right next time!!!!!!! Westlake all the way.

This is tha honest truth.That cat “Fan” is a “TURD”to say the least.Do you really expect a high school kid to stop and give you conversation!!Do you realize how many people come up to these kids day in and day out asking for one thing or another.After a while they build a wall around themselves to keep TURDS like yourself from having contact with them.I truly hope that you are a student,and not a grown a* man speakin’ this nonsense.And as far as the money that U spend on HIGH SCHOOL GAMES…..you should spend it on ah six pack,get ah buzz and watch this years championships on TV,you “TURD”!!!!!!!

ok AAAA fans i have my predictions and i feel an upset bruing. MGHS has udofia but not only do i not see them taking out columbia, I do not see them getting past this hungry FCHS squad. Led by Johnson and BAM BAM these guys will not stop until they get what they want, which is that blood hungry rematch with Westlake High School in the state championship. Tigers take out MGHS by 8 and NIP westlake by 3.

AND NOW FOR AAAAA, Norcross takes their spirit to the championsip, only to get let down by Wheeler, Wheeler wins by 10.

MAHONE? WHAT YA THINK?

Sorry to tassel some feathers I am a student who attend a very prestigious school here in Atlanta I just so happen to be visiting several teams in the area One being Dunwoody and Norcross and compare to the treatment of how the players responded to fans at Norcross was more humbling than Mr Singleton Approach to me and my friends, those players at Norcross were kids also who understood the value of Fans and took the time to speak to me and a few of my colleagues first impression to me as a fan and being Humble whether you are 6-or sixty last a life time. To Mr Jaguar can you say” Education” You are named after a vehicle and probably is lacking in some form of educational skills from your conversation I am sure Mr Singleton maybe the All American good guy in your eyes but my interaction as a fan and how I was received by his cocky attitude And is ability to act as if he did not need a fan base or to take time to speak will be a lasting affect, I do however wish you all the very best thanks for your comment it has been real.

Wesleyan Boys have a very good chance of winning it all in AA State Finals in Macon. The Unsung heroes like Erik Strong and Micheal Cornelius will make the difference. Go Wolves and God Bless You!!!

Good Luck to the Lady Indians of Towns County as they head to Macon for a showdown with Calvary Day this evening at 7pm. I’m sure there are those who didn’t know mountain girls could play basketball….but this team has made a LOT of believers this season. Just ask Gordon-Lee, Bowdon, Monticello, and Hancock Central for starters. It’s been 8 years since the Lady Indians were in the Final Four…..and I’d venture to guess that almost everyone in northeast Georgia is behind these young ladies! Go get’em girls!! Show ‘em what ya got!! We’re behind you ALL the way!
