Evadale 15 Woodville 3/FINAL

Yes, they played a bad game. Yes, they should be held responsible. Leave that to the man that they pay to hold them responsible. I'm not an expert in sports psychology, but I can't imagine the boys on the team read this and think "Man, we have such great, supportive fans." Yes, the program has gone slightly downhill, but that's not due to a lack of effort or heart from these kids. Not every graduating class can produce 90+ arms and multiple people hitting tape measure shots. Whether you're meaning to blame them or not, that's how it will be perceived by those young men. Just please try to be more supportive, instead of criticizing. You do nothing to positively influence the program you claim to support by making negative comments like that.

Nothing against evadale they have a very good team. Woodville has been going down hill for a while. This team is expected to go a long ways. This year and next . Dixie league World Series must mean nothing.

That team was made up of kids from other Tyler County towns as well..Not solely Woodville... Besides I think most of those boys graduated over the last couple of years...

I have noticed the support or lack of for the past several weeks. Every game we lose nothing but excuses umpires fault you name it. Nothing a umpire or anyone else can do to win or lose. No wonder all every one talks about is softball. We will see how it goes against newton.  If self esteem is that low it is already over.

I'm not sure who you're referring to, but you haven't heard any excuses come from any of my posts. My only point was to, hopefully, get you to slow down on the criticizing teenagers on this public forum. And last time I checked, it went just fine against Newton last time :)

I know it's an unusual situation to lose to a 2A school, but Evadale is playing some good ball.  And only Big Sandy has beaten them in Dist, and they just beat Bridge City.  So Eagle fans, don't get down.  Just a warmup game, and that's the time to get that "bad game" (and everyone has them) over with.

Good luck to Woodville in the playoffs!

Yes our Evadale team isn't your typical 2A team nor is Big Sandy! We have pitchers & catchers that can pitch& catch against big teams and our defense is solid.

 Bigger schools aren't the only ones with Big talent anymore! We have several who play

summer ball and compete with or against 4, 5 & 6A players . So that makes a difference!

Bridge City isn't the usual Bridge City this year. But yes Big Sandy and Evadale have good teams.

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
