PORTAGEVILLE BASKETBALL

PORTAGEVILLE BOYS BEGINS PLAY THURSDAY NITE IN THE DISTRICTS,AND THEY ARE SEEDED NUMBER 1.HOWEVER THE 2 SUPERSTARS(NO PUN INTENDED) ACTUALLY COACH BIDEWELL CAME UP WITH THAT PHRASE,HAVE QUIT THE TEAM.THEY WILL BE SHORTHANDED,BUT ARE BETTER OFF WITHOUT THEM,BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE THE HEART OF THE REST OF THE PLAYERS.DISCIPLINE HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR EVERY SINCE BASKETBALL HAS BEEN A SPORT.SOME KIDS ARE RAISED UP WITHOUT ANY DISCIPLINE,AND THEN WHEN THEY HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT,THEY DO NOT WANT TO ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES.THE TWO PLAYERS WHO QUIT,HAD QUIT ONCE BEFORE THIS YEAR ,AND THEY WERE LET BACK ON THE TEAM.NOT THIS TIME.COACH BIDEWELL IS ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL HIGH SCHOOL COACHES EVER IN MISSOURI,AND HE HAS SAT SOME PRETTY GOOD PLAYERS ON THE BENCH FOR ACTING STUPID.LET ME ASSURE YOU WITH COACH BIDEWELL,THAT HE HAD RATHER TURN OUT WINNING KIDS,AS A WINNING TEAM.GOOSE
