Weekend Review.

Someone tell me if I am wrong but was today the first time ever that two players from Nash county played in the same game?

The Phoenix Cardinals today were in Charlotte and the Cardinals J J Arrington of Northern Nash went up against the Panthers and Julius Peppers of Southern Nash.

I did not live in the area when Jim Clack played but was there anyone from the area other than Clack in the NFL then?

I tell you a team that I would not want to be matched up with in the playoffs is the Cardinals. Man can that Kurt Warner throw that pill.

I was flipping back and forth for most of the day between Carolina and San Diego and Saints.

It looks like Philip Rivers is back in Raleigh playing for the wolfpack as he is getting chunks of yardage and today he continues to lead the NFL in quarterback ratings but the Charger defense can't stop anybody.

To me as a charger fan it surely looked like the Charger came up short with the yellow flags. Twice they were called for pass interference when the defenders cannot possible play it any better.

The Saints benefited from both calls keeping drives alive and scoring 14 points.

I do see that Dallas and San Diego are both are alot alike. Both are a lot of Glitz but when it comes down to playing basic down and dirty football neither is doing it.

I think the World Series is has had three good games. Too bad they played last night and didn't start until close to 11.00pm

I don't understand why they took days off during the other series and now the World Series they want to Finish by Wednesday.

Another High school football player was hurt over the weekend from a head injury . An East Gaston player was carted off the field but the word is good tonight that the young man seems to be recovering.

Monday night finds high school football on the agenda as Nash Central Travels to Southwest Edgecombe and Fike will host Northern Nash.

I would expect B W Holt will be in Pinetops to scout Nash central.

It is always benificial when one team beats another but I can't make up my mind who I want to win the SWE Nash central game.

In the long run a SWE victory is best for the Gryphons since in case of a tie at the end of the season the Gryphons have the tie breaker against SWE.

If Nash Central were to win Monday and turn around and beat us they would have any tie breaker on us.

Finally tonight I want to go away from sports to tell you about something I did Friday morning.

We went to Greenville early Friday morning and when we got in the car we were about on empty so we decided to go to Tarboro to get cheap gas.

Just as I was pulling off of 64 my gas light came on. At the stop sign we noticed gas was $2.47 per gallon at the Murphy station but we went left hoping for cheaper at the raceway but it wasn't.

So back to Murphy where we filled up for $35.00. I think that is the first time in six months that I have not spent at least $50 a pop,

Praise the Lord!
