Those of you may remember about the HBO story on Josh Hamilton that once he left the ball park every day someone had to be with him at all times to keep him from stopping at a bar or to even buy drugs. There is a story out that Hamilton has fallen off the wagon and has had a meeting with MLB about his latest problem.
Drugs got him suspended from baseball early in his career and now at 34 he may get a 25 game suspension for this relapse if this story is true. Drugs have cut short what possibly could have been a hall of fame career had not his life been engulfed with this mental affliction. We all know whether is being fat or smoking cigarettes when ever you try to stop a habit it is hard to do so in one way or the other we all have our sins but some are harder than others to break.
Has anybody noticed that since Duke kicked one player off they have not lost a game. I see Duke is a good team but I don't see final four this year.
N C State gave back what they earned again this week another big time victory wasted losing to BC. Looking at winning percentage Mark Gottfried since he has been in Raleigh is winning nearly 65 per cent. The next step for Wolfpack basketball is beating the so so teams every time like Duke does and take your chances with the top teams.
The Big build up about the Kentucky- Arkansas game on Saturday was this was the last top 25 team Kentucky would play until the NCAA so their chance for a perfect regular season is almost 100% now. I also heard Kentucky hasn't played another top 25 team since December so will the Wildcats be tournament tested tough????
A year to forget for the Rocky Mount girls basketball team ended with a good effort at Corinth Holders. The season started losing a player to death and finished with two weeks of weather without practice. Despite all the goings on this team still finished with a 10-10 record. They had seven losses to teams still in playoffs with a combined record of 77-18. Northern 22-0 three losses, Hunt 18-6 two losses, Hayesville 19-6 one loss and Corinth Holders 18-6 one loss. If there is one thing that Pam Gainey is good at and that is teaching defense. This team stayed in most games despite poor guard play.
The Lady Knights of Northern Nash are the only Nash County school still alive heading into the second round. They are home Monday night at 6pm to Walter Williams of Burlington a 15 seed but their record is 21-4. This is a big test for the Lady Knights as they try to stay unbeaten.
