SamKat: A picture for you!

Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.

For Christian American readers of this blog:

I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!

A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Now, you made me cry, Jack!

How great our man, Doc!

The Portsmouth area and I are so proud of Jim Fout, Jack Plymale, and Stephen "Doc" Yeagle and their football ilk! (I must add the name of another great Trojan footballer and departed friend, Gib Lakeman). Pointy ballers of the nth degree!

I was so honored when Jim Fout let me sit in the seat of Paul Walker with you three at an OSU fb game. Paul Walker, Ohio's great Middletown bounceyball coach, considered you guys superstars for getting him the Middletown job and he used to share those seats with you. Of course Paul Walker coached you guys to an undefeated football season before going to Middletown after the Big War. You guys tied Middletown 0-0 that season, and that is all their selection commitee wanted to talk about in their interview of Paul!

Only a football game? Yeah, but guided by a higher source IMHO!

Jim Fout's interview story is in the book Doc is holding- "Excellence in Athletics in the Portsmouth Area".

Jack Plymale's wonderful email story of some pre and post war era Portsmouth Trojan greats is also in my "SamKatBlog 2008" book. P'Sports from my steel trap mind, which has spent time on the bottom of the ocean and has become a little rusty and forgetful- if not on the written page.

Again I am humbly honored by the picture. The great "Doc", Miss DuPuy's pet gentle giant, was visiting P'Town once more through my book. If I must sincerely say? "Golly gee, Mr. P"! Would your mentor, Bert Leach, accept those words as poetry?

From the bottom of my heart, I Thank you good friend!

SamKat- Sports fan of the wonderful 2011 Kentucky Final Four bounceyballers team and another great coach, John Calipari of the Coach Adolph Rupp ilk.
