They Have Happened Before

It is true. We, the Gentrifiers of Cleveland Street, are on a winning streak. After our 44-35 dismantling of the Fighting Chandiru (Really just some 2006 MUS grads with Independent Pres. jerseys), we have officially won two games in a row and our confidence is rising with our win total.

Now, I want to annouce winners of last nights "Gentrys"(The official Cleveland Street Gentrifier ' nod of approval'"

Gentry for best use of intimidation: Richard Rogers for absolutely psyching out the point guard for the Chandiru who needed to be reminded that this was C league.

Gentry for best early season teammate: Two winners here... Paul McClure and Henry Talbot. We won't be seeing them again on the court as neither of them reside full time in Memphis. Henry and Paul are two of our top four scorers and we will have to replace their firepower somehow (Bubba and John T.)

Postgame reporting done by none other than former East High great Tony Harris apparently lets us know that up to four (4) Gentrifiers last night were seen at the Windjammer enjoying some post game beverages and listening to the melodic stylings of the Southhaven residents on the karaoke machine. Gentry for Best Song goes to the couple that attempted to and succeeded in singing/french kissing during some Alan Jackson song. Perhaps this Windjammer outing could turn into a tradition for the Gents. More on that in the next post. For now, I leave you with a quote:

Parole Board chairman: They've got a name for people like you H.I. That name is called "recidivism."
Parole Board member: Repeat offender!
Parole Board chairman: Not a pretty name, is it H.I.?
H.I.: No, sir. That's one bonehead name, but that ain't me any more.
Parole Board chairman: You're not just telling us what we want to hear?
H.I.: No, sir, no way.
Parole Board member: 'Cause we just want to hear the truth.
H.I.: Well, then I guess I am telling you what you want to hear.
Parole Board chairman: Boy, didn't we just tell you not to do that?
H.I.: Yes, sir.
Parole Board chairman: Okay, then.
