You'll find an extended look at the status of many banks doing business in Northwest Georgia by clicking Bank Report. The file features the overall assets of locally- or Georgia-based banks as of June 30 as well as the "Texas Ratio" of each, which compares non-performing loans to the bank's overall assets and capital. The higher the ratio, the more likely the bank is under review by regulators.
>What the report shows:
-Four banks doing business in Bartow County had Texas Ratio amounts of 100-plus.
-Georgia Heritage, a Dallas-based bank with an office in Cartersville, posted a 228.2 Texas Ratio, up from 180.2 percent three months earlier.
-Unity National Bank had a ratio of 129.2 percent, up from 100.9 percent.
-Crescent Bank, with offices in Bartow, posted a 110.8 percent ratio, up from 85.5 percent on March 31.
-Bartow County Bank posted a 100.3 percent score vs. 68.5 percent in March.
>How they ranked: Of the 300 state banks reviewed, Georgia Heritage (not affiliated with Heritage First) had the 12th highest ratio in the state; Unity was 42nd; Crescent was 50th and Bartow County was 55th. Large loans moving into the 90-day overdue category was one major factor boosting the ratio of some banks.
>On the lower end of the surveyed were: Greater Rome Bank had a ratio of 8.6 percent, up from 7.1 percent in March. Rrank: 251 out of 300 banks.
-North Georgia National Bank, based in Calhoun, was 217; ratio: 15.6 percent.
-River City Bank, with offices in Rome and Carrollton, was 215. Ratio 16 percent.
>The report also looks at each bank's assets as of June 30: The range goes from $54.1 million for Southeast First National in Summerville to $488.5 million for Georgia Bank & Trust in Calhoun. In Floyd County, Citizens First posted almost $363 million in assets followed by River City at $215 million; Greater Rome at $184 million; and Heritage First at $101 million. Again, those numbers are through June 30; several banks report asset increases since then. Click Bank Report.

-John McClellan's picks for this weekend's openers. Writes John on Unity's first game tonight: "The Unity Christian Lions make their long awaited varsity football debut Friday night when they travel to Carrollton to take on another first year varsity program, the Holy Ground Baptist Academy Stallions ... Joe Curtiss and Unity have been building toward this moment and excitement is high for the Lions. First year football teams face challenges and the 2009 season will be no different for Unity as the schedule includes several games against established football programs from Georgia and Alabama. However, Unity is prepared for the challenge."
