I was considering not going so I could spend some time with my wife.... Kingaling just changed that. I hope they bring alot of people here with them.

bring your wife too!

[Fumblerooskies]

Whatcha got Flame fans??? Anything good or am I just going to hear emotional spewing the next few days til this next game is settled?? I'll return later...

YOU HAVE A TINY GYM!

(and the new one may NEVER get built)

[Cider Jim]

It's TINY and it's OLD.

[ALUmnus]

There should be a good turnout for this one, they seem to be giving out free tickets like crazy. Our church had a whole stack of them to hand out, I think courtesy of the N&A.

[Fumblerooskies]

It's TINY and it's OLD.

(that's getting rather personal there, CJ)

Dang it you beat me to it.

[kingaling42]

That it may be.. Just don't be mad because your women's team is mentally tougher in playing in the JC than your men's team- the women don't seem to have any trouble playing there as evidenced by last years tourney's..

I got one...
...your greatest player (Pitman) CHOKED at crunch time and could not win the big one even with a 24 point lead in the finals!

Really Fumbles?? Pittman may never have won a tourney title- but he does have 2 conference titles to his credit.. How many did Peter Aluma get those years?? I mean Aluma was supposed to be the Player of the Year in 1996 right?? Pittman was also the first Big South player to be selected to Portsmouth Invitational Tournament- & with a solid 10 year career overseas professionally (& still playing!) I don't see your point.. Oh wait - is it because Pittman didn't win you a ring huh??

Come on Fumble's- you're really talking about guys that you helped condition/train when you were at UNCA?? I'm fine with you talking about current teams with LU bias but let's not forget you were a Bulldog back then- you shouldn't play both cards!!!

[Cider Jim]

let's not forget you were a Bulldog back then- you shouldn't play both cards!!!

Any chance there's a pic out there somewhere with Fumble's face painted in Bulldog colors???

[kingaling42]

No, at least not that I'm aware of- but I've got all our team pics somewhere- JT cheesin all the way too!!!

But he's a Flame through & through now...

[Hold My Own]

Wow...that was funny

[Fumblerooskies]

I knew kingaling would find the irony in my statement about Pittman...
...that loss to Radford was the toughest I ever experienced, too.

[Fumblerooskies]

Seriously, I got nothing to joke on UNCA about...
...I enjoyed my time there...outside of the WBB coaches at the time.

Tire, we love you, but please no footless Kenny George jokes.

[dompennix]

[Fumblerooskies]

WOW...
...you guys are brutal.

[kingaling42]

Thing is get used to your own avatar dompennix- looking up at J Williams nuts when he's dunkin on the Flames!! He's not the sharpest baller ever in terms of total skill set- but he is by far the most explosive athlete I've ever seen in person for a guy 6'4".. Check out

quality isn't great but don't hate on his athleticism- you don't see guys his height leading the league in blocks every year... otherwise these pics aren't even similar enough to post- tire had some good ones- especially Matt Dickey..

He's a great jumper, I'm not taking anything away from his basketball skills He can dunk too, but I've seen better. Smitty can get up too tho. Once you see Team Flight Brothers in person, you cant top that.

These guys are just crazy.

[jinxy]

kingaling, you have not seen many good players in person if you think this kid is the best 6'4 athlete you have ever seen in person. [/quote]

shoot while we're off topic check this out

Yeah- ok.. I know you guys are heavily biased - which is fine, but I have actually seen about as much basketball as some of you on here think you have.. I posted one representative clip & you start with this And One salute to dunking- JW does far more than just dunk- I was just playing off of your own avatar dompennix (sounds like you're used to looking up vs being able to dunk yourself) Jinxy- How about some quotes from your own board members since I don't know what I'm talking about..

Vincent James might be the best athlete in the league in terms or running and jumping ability. Eddie compared his athleticism to David Thompson! .

Vincent James was a senior last year. Are you talking about John Williams? Because he might be the best leaper I've seen in this league.

I was thinking of James but yes John Williams has serious hops too. As far as leapers in the league, Gabe Martin and Greg Lewis come to mind. Danny Gathings had some hops too but I didn't get to see them on display that often because we usually did a good job of keeping him out of transition.

Now I know y'all respect SCAR more than me- as ex-players maybe we know what to look for than just some of the gym rats that think they know basketball- obviously I'm not alone in my thoughts that JW for his height is prob the most athletic guy in the league (I'm not saying by any stretch that he's the best basketball player- as he's clearly not- but no one's more athletic though!).. I asked for some good banter here folks- this is WEAK so far- I've got people posting things that your own board helped me refute.. step it up!!

[RagingTireFire]

Tire, we love you, but please no footless Kenny George jokes.

Yeah, I took it out. Even I wasn't comfortable with it.

And that says something in and of itself.
