When love conquers all
By Kathy Monnin - Versailles News
Have you ever had a car pull out in front of you only to turn about 800 ft. later? Or maybe you have been waiting in a checkout line and just as you are finally at the register the clerk says she is taking her break you will have to go to the next register. It is enough to make a person’s blood boil.
Other things that irritate or annoy us are the drivers that come to a dead stop before turning right or driver that never uses their turn signals. How about the people who walk super slowly in front of you, blocking the entire aisle or driveway, or people talking loudly on their cellphone in a public place, such as the grocery store? Then you turn on the news and get passionately provoked.
The Brownwood Lions chalked up their third win in a row, improved to 6-0 in games played in Brownwood, and moved over the .500 mark for the first time with a 57-46 victory over the Class 5A Wichita Falls Rider Raiders Tuesday at the Brownwood Coliseum.
“We played a lot better than we looked in practice yesterday, that’s for sure,” said Lions fifth-year head coach Nadir Dalleh who returned to the sidelines after being hospitalized last week with pneumonia. “Having five days off, that’s a good win against a good 5A team. We came in and shot the ball well to start with and we made smart plays. That’s the stuff we have to do in a couple of weeks when we start district.”
