Granny Blue...What are the major issues at Gallia Academy and the Gallipolis School District? It would be nice to know!

If the count stays around 16, I doubt if he'll cut. There have been times he's had 23 or 24 kids. He had to cut then.

Hoppy had 16 report for drills tonight. Hoppy said he called the paper a few days ago about Monday's organizational meeting, but it still hasn't been published. Maybe he will wind up with 19 or 20. That's what they've been averaging at the level.

That's the way to answer 'em, 4-Ever!

Veteran Gallipolis 7th grade basketball Tom Hopkins greeted 10 prospects during Monday night's organizational meeting at the Gallipolis Developmental Center auditorium. After explaining rules and regulations for the 7th graders, Hopkins passed out the 2007-08 schedule, and announced the first practi...

Counted 17 boy prospects during Monday evening's first GAHS boys basketball drills in the Blue Devil gym.

Didn't see Chris McCoy or Cole Jones.

Mine would be those who are trying to get a piece of the action in the city, county governments, plus both school boards.

Suoerblue...Who are your 10 "good ole boys"? If you are speaking of politics, bet my "10 good ole boys" are differant than yours.

Good luck in the playoffs Portsmouth. Carry the SEOAL banner high!

Good luck in the playoffs Logan. Carry the SEOAL banner high!

During Friday morning's prayer breakfast at Grace United Methodist Church, GAHS head basketball coach Jim Osborne announced dates for four scrimmages prior to the 2007-08 opener against Meigs at Meigs in late November. Drills will begin Monday, Oct. 29. The scrimmage dates are: Nov. 13--At Alexander...

Locos...You might check your records, but I believe Logan has set a team scoring record in a seven-game league schedule. I know Wellston held the mark for years, but I think Ironton broke it in the mid or late 70s.

B'Ballin...What are the credentials of the two canidates you're pushing for in the election?

Superblue...You say sometimes change is good? You mean if we have change, we'll go back to being the doormat of the SEOAL every year? That's what it was for 11 years before Oz took over the program.

You must mean Johnny Ecker, former GAHS grid and baseball coach in the late 60s and early 70s. He passed away three or four years ago.

You are right, bassmaster...Oz came here to start the 1969-70 campaign, and got the GAHS cage program turned around after 10 or 11 years of dismal last place or second division finishes in the SEOAL.

I have been around over a half century fasteach..I've played and seen more basketball than you'll see in your lifetime...If you didn't like what ypu were doing if you played for Oz, why did you play? Oldschoolfan...Rick and Norm have had many successful seasons, but like GAHS, neither have been to t...

Wow!

For every complaint like yours, bub, I've heard of more than a 100 with the opposite opinion. Get a life.

Alabama Mike....Odie is receiving treatment for his cancer and heart problems, but has managed to attend several civic and social functions the past few weeks. He hopes to be on hand for tonight's grid game with Chillicothe as a guest of Joe Giles, a city commissioner who lives at the north end of M...

Wish a lot of the whinners would have attended the 2007 GAHS Athletic Hall oif Fame banquet on Sept. 1. The seven outstanding athletes credited their coaches for working their butts off during their careers, but added, at the time, thought rhey were being worked too hard. Meanwhile, most of the hone...
