A great weekend.

On Friday I took the day off to go to the densest and then pick up leaves pick up in Goshen. Friday night we stayed home and Lizzie and Brandon made Chocolate cookies…Yummy. This was the first Friday night since Aug 14th that we been home. We will enjoy this while it lasts…NW Basketball is the next High school sport.

Saturday morning I was up early to take Lizzie to an Upwards cheer meeting and then pick up Scott and a friend up from a guys overnighter at the church. Then back to Nappanee Saturday night to pick Lizzie up for a Northwood Girls' basketball game. NW Girl's won both the JV and the Varsity game. The varsity game the NW girls came from a 15 point deficit to beat Jimtown girls. Then after the girls' game we we're home in time to watch ND lose…bummer.

Sunday morning we were off to church. Sunday afternoon and evening we stay home and that was so nice and watches movies and Colts football. Doesn't get any better than that on a Sunday afternoon.

Basketball Movies…to watch or not to watch

With Basketball season tipping off this week I thought it would be fun to find some basketball movies to watch when you're not cheering on your favorite basketball team.

Hoosiers (1986)… Gene Hackman, Barbara Hershey, Dennis Hopper. Hackman coaches a 1950's Indiana high school team in what could be his last shot at a title.

Teen Wolf (1985)… Michael J. Fox, James Hampton, Scott Paulin, Susan Ursitti, Jerry Levine, Jim MacKrell. Hokey comedy about teenage werewolf Scott Howard, but worth seeing once for his on-the-court transformation.

Pistol: The Birth of a Legend (1991)… Adam Guier, Millie Perkins, Nick Benedict, Boots Garland. The story of Pistol Pete Maravich, who starred in high school, college and the NBA with a flashy style of play all his own.

White Men Can't Jump (1992)… Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson, Rosie Perez, Tyra Ferrell. Comedy film is entertaining and fast-paced with snappy dialog and outstanding athleticism throughout

Blue Chips (1994)… Nick Nolte, Mary McDonnell, J.T.Walsh, Ed O'Neill, Shaquille O'Neill, Anfernee Hardaway, Matt Nover, Bob Cousy. The dark side of college recruitment includes money laundering and under-the-table payoffs.

The Air Up There (1994)… Kevin Bacon, Charles Gitonga. Assistant college coach Jimmy Dolan spots a talented African youngster on film and travels halfway around the world to recruit him and becomes involved with his Winabi tribe's local problems.

Hoop Dreams (1994)… William Gates, Arthur Agee. The true story of two young men (playing themselves) seeking athletic scholarships at Catholic High School with dreams of playing in the NBA.

Space Jam (1996)… Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Bill Murray and Wayne Knight with Charles Barkley, Larry Bird, Mugsy Bogues, Shawn Bradley, Patrick Ewing and Larry Johnson. The Tune Stars take on the Monstars in the wildest basketball game you'll ever want to see.

*Eddie (1996)… Whoopie Goldberg, Frank Langella, Dennis Farina, Richard Jenkins with John Salley, Rick Fox, Malik Sealy, Mark Jackson, Dwayne Schintzius and Greg Ostertag. Super fan Eddie Franklin becomes head coach of the New York Knicks by being in the right place at the right time

Air Bud (1997)… Kevin Zegers, Wendy Makkena, Michael Jeter, Bill Cobbs, Eric Christmas. Buddy, a golden retriever, runs away from his mean owner, befriends a 12-year-old boy and becomes the mascot for the school basketball team.

Double Teamed (2002)… Poppi Monroe, Annie McElwain, Teal Redmann, Nick Searcy, Tanya Goott, Joey Miyashima, Mackenzie Phillips, Chris Olivero. The true story of WNBA players Heather and Heidi Burge. They

Like Mike (2002)… Lil' Bow Wow, Morris Chestnut, Jonathan Lipnicki, Jesse Plemons, Anne Meara, Da Brat. Youngster Calvin buys a magical pair of sneakers that were once worn by Michael Jordan.

Coach Carter (2005)… Samuel L. Jackson, Rob Brown, Robert Ri'chard, Rick Gonzalez, Ashanti. Ken Carter, a former high school basketball star, accepts the job of head coach at his old high school in a poor area of Richmond, CA and improves the team with a stricter attitude.

Rebound (2005)… Martin Lawrence, Wendy Raquel Robinson, Oren Williams, Breckin Meyer, Horatio Sanz, Megan Mullally. Lawrence plays a once-successful college coach who is fired after a losing streak and a bad attitude that gets him into trouble.

Glory Road (2006)… Josh Lucas, Derek Luke, Austin Nichols, John Voight. The dramatized true story of the Texas Western College Miners (now called the University of Texas at El Paso) men's basketball team, which fielded history's first all African-American starting lineup of players to take a Division I national championship, and surprisingly winning the 1966 NCAA tournament title.

NWMS 7th grade “B” team basketball

The NorthWood Boys' 7th Grade B Basketball team defeated North Side on Monday night by a score of 27-13. Leading scorers for the team were Josh Hunting with 7, Scott Kern 6 and Luke Cripe with 5. The rebounding and defensive effort was carried throughout by the entire team. The B Teams next game is Monday November 16th at home against Pierre Moran.

It time for NWMS Basketball.

NWMS boys' basketball tips off tonight at 4:30. Scott is a little nervous about tonight ball game and I would be nervous to about tonight game. Other then Upward basketball last year Scott doesn't play much basketball…you could say that basketball is not is "passion". If Scott could play Football year round he would… I'm glad that he is playing basketball this year and not just because of me wanting him to.

Ivanhoe Drive-In


After watching the Northwood cheerleaders take State Runner-Up at the 2009 Indiana Cheer Championships Varsity State Finals at New Castle High School. We make a pit stop to Ivanhoe’s in Upland, IN for some ice cream. Ivanhoe’s in Upland, In is well worth a road trip. Ivanhoe’s can make Sundays and Shakes hundreds of different ways. As you can see in the Picture “Good Luck Panthers” on the sign and I just had to take this picture. This was for # 3 Eastbrook Panthers who won 3A Sectional 19 Championship on Friday night who shut out #12 Bellmont Braves the 2008 3A Champs 34-0.

Side Lines — Sectional finals have arrived - The Elkhart Truth - Elkhart, IN

Side Lines — Sectional finals have arrived - The Elkhart Truth - Elkhart,

No guarantees…

There are no guarantees in the outcome of tonight's Northwood – Jimtown game. All I can say it's going to be a great game. You have two well balance teams playing for 3A sectional 18 crown. Since Jimtown moved up to Class 3A this season so this will be the first postseason meeting between the two highly successful programs which have captured a combined 161 playoff victories, 34 sectional titles, 21 regional championships, 11 semistate crowns and five state titles. Jimtown won back on Aug 21st in overtime 13 – 10. So Jimtown is going to try and win their 1st 3A Sectional title game tonight. Both teams are playing so much better on both side of the ball since the first meeting back in Aug. Northwood will win hard or go down fighting to the end.
Game on!!!
