And don't believe him!!

Hang tough Shelby fans. Lots of support and luck from Rams fans in Reidsville.
I predicted his spread dead on the money, I don't think any of us were surprised by it. Simmons has a high percentage of being right with his predictions, but I am optimistic that we will hang tough with these guys.
