Well, guys.  It is not picking on a small school. 

Concordia was scheduled to play in Lumberton tonight.  Coach Babin spoke to Coach Lindquist at Concordia and was assured that Concordia was coming.  Then early this afternoon, he was told that Concordia would not be able to make the game tonight.  As conditions in Lumberton are a lot better than a lot of areas, Coach Babin wanted to try and get a game played, especially considering that Lumberton had lost one game (WHICH.......ONCE AGAIN.....WAS A MUTUAL DECISION BY COACH BABIN AND COACH BARBAY AT JASPER TO CANCEL THAT GAME!!!).  His first choice was an opponent that already who had a cancellation but that team had already picked up another game for tomorrow.  His mind clicked to Evadale as they had also previously lost a game due to cancellation (last week as O'Connell cancelled on them).  He then called Coach Williams at Evadale who was of the same mindset.....his kids just wanted to play some ball.

That is how this game came to be. 

So this crap of Lumberton trying to "back out" of one game to get a smaller opponent has nothing to do with this.

BTW, if you can't make the game, SETXsports.com will carry it.

Don't take it so serious folks...this is just a couple programs who want to and are able to play. It doesn't matter...At least they are fortunate enough to have kids/parents/students who can make it to the game. Let them play.  Some local areas are still underwater with players/coaches who've been flooded out, again.

      Boutte Retires - West Brook Hires Mike Thomas

      By Coach_Izzy · Posted

      Really good hire! As I stated previously on this thread, Mike T has been an essential part of WB’s success the last few years & is a student of the game & I have a ton of respect for how he goes about things as a coach. Big on teaching kids how to do things the right way to prepare them for not only basketball but the game of life. He’ll be fine there, my only question is what kind of talent does WB have returning?  Best thing about this situation for Mike T is WB will be 5A for at least the next 2 years, so he should win a lot of games & have some deep playoff runs.

      US Supreme Court case from southeast Texas

      By tvc184 · Posted

      A Winnie land owner (and others) sued the State of Texas after they built IH-10 a few feet higher in order to help contain storm flooding. Sure enough a hurricane hit and flooded the land. The storm improvements worked!! Unfortunately the state sacrificed several people’s properties in using the interstate highway as a dam.  Richard DeVillier tried to sue Texas under our laws and Constitution and the US Constitution under the Fifth Amendment “taking clause” (eminent domain). After a favorable ruling in the federal district court on the right to sue Texas directly, the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans overturned that ruling and said that the DeVlier had no authority to sue Texas directly.  On Tuesday a unanimous US Supreme Court ruled that DeVillier and others had the right to sue Texas directly under Texas law and under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution. The case is now sent back down to the lower court. DeVillier and others have not won their lawsuits as the case has not been decided on its merits at a trial. He still has to go to prove his case. What they did win was a unanimous Supreme Court agreeing that he has the right to bring Texas to trial for taking his property with just compensation.
