| Brett Morris, after being "deputized" to play for the Guns basketball team. |
It appears that the 4th Annual Guns-n-Hoses charity basketball game scheduled for this Friday is already embroiled in a heated controversy between the Webster Springs Fire Department (the "Hoses") and local law enforcement (the "Guns").
As previously reported by the Commentator, the Hoses had planned to add a couple "ringers" to their team to counter the ringer-laden Guns' team. It now appears that one of those ringers, Highlander basketball standout Brett Morris, may have been recruited to play for the Guns. During a practice session Tuesday evening near Cowen, Morris was "deputized" as a reserve deputy by local law enforcement and will now be playing for the Guns, and not the Hoses. This will obviously be a serious blow to the Hoses' chances this Friday to break the three game winning streak by the Guns.
The game will be played at the Webster Springs Elementary School gym on Friday, March 22, with tip off at 7:00 p.m. and doors opening at 6:00 p.m. All proceeds benefit the Webster Springs Athletic program.
Don't take what you read about this charity game too seriously folks; both sides are having fun with this.
ReplyDeletebased on every game after the 1st one, the guns don't have fun with it. When they get mad during the game, it's not fun. Fun would be pranks like before. Fun would be the fd winning once in awhile. I'm not involved in the VFD-just hate seeing the one sidedness of it.
ReplyDeletethe fun stopped when the officers that I know personally got mad-and it wasn't for show. My opinion isn't based on what I read-it's based on what I know since the 2nd time they played.
ReplyDeletewhat do you expect from webster county cops? they arent fair on the streets, you really didnt think they would be on the court did you? they are used to cheating and making up lies! sorry, but it is the nasty truth.
ReplyDeleteIt appears that some people haven't figured out that the Brett story is a joke. The Hoses joked that they were putting him on their team. The Guns countered with the photo in this story. Good grief!
ReplyDeleteit has nothing to do with brett! it has to do with the nasty attitude of certain officials around here. they took the fun out of it.
