Silsbee assistant coach Ira Brooks will be coaching his last home game tomorrow night. Coach Brooks will be retiring at the end of this season. Coach Brooks has been coaching at Silsbee for 32 years. He has been a mainstay and key component to the success of the Tiger Basketball program. His JV teams have always been successful and have won many district championships even when several freshmen and sophomores were playing varsity. Coach Brooks has earned the respect and love from many coaches in our area. He has been a fantastic coach but an even better man. He will be missed. Congrats to my friend Ira.

Final 71-62 Bridge City BIG TIME UPSET!!! Congrats Bridge City!!! The better team won.

This is the first time in school history that Bridge City has made it to the 3rd round of the playoffs. Also, their current 14 game win streak is the longest in school history. Definitely an historical season for the Cards.

They had to have atleast 20 Official timeouts to wipe the floor. It took most of the rhythm out of the game. But survive and advance!

Onalaska and Westwood next round will be a good one.

I really don’t understand urgency, priority or necessity of this.

Including you? You have made some yourself.

Long time listener first time caller a couple things here on warm ups 1. You are allowed 21 match games and 3 tournaments (can also do 23 games and 2 tournaments and a few other combinations but no one does that), how many games you play in a tournament doesn't change anything. You can play 6 or you can play 3 and it still counts as a tournament. Jamborees or showcases or whatever you want to call them count as one of your 21 games. The UIL changed this to 21/2 or 19/3 about ten years ago and then changed it back after a year or two due to coaches not being happy at all with the change. Not even sure what the original reasoning was for the change to be honest. 2. The warm-up era was huge when the UIL switched from allowing 2 teams to 3 teams to make the playoffs in the late 90's I think it was. At that point in time (most of the 00's) if you won district you had a first round bye which meant not playing for a week and a half and that was felt to be too long by most coaches, so that is when you saw the warm-up game really take off. Once the UIL allowed 4 teams to make it now there is only a week between games and you started to see less and less warm up games. I also think the mandatory UIL one game suspension for an ejection has played into this as well. Now not only are you risking injury with only a week between games you are also risking the potential of having a first round suspension due to an ejection, so that plays a small role as well. In my opinion (just one coach others may feel totally different), the only real value in warm up games now are like what you see with Coach Sutherland at EC and as mentioned above is you lose so many games to the football team making the playoffs and you have an opportunity to make one up because you didn't even get close to your game limit. Also, if you are a massive powerhouse like Silsbee and you more or less ran through your district without any close games at all like they did several times in the last decade, you don't want to go into the playoffs without having played a close game in a month and a half, so going and playing high level competition in a warm-up game adds value. Also think that if the UIL flips to what they did with volleyball ( and rumor is it is probably going to happen) and the regular season ends on Friday and the first round of the playoffs starts on Thursday/Friday the following week, which would leave Monday/Tuesday as your warm up game options, in my opinion the warm-up game is completely dead at that point.

@BMTSoulja1 why does United have a German shepherd on their scoreboard, a coyote mural on the wall, and their mascot is the Timberwolves? 😂

Personally, I think y'all are all too invested in this, and the ending you get will never satisfy.

Hats off to a very talented and skilled Westwood team. Our press isn’t what failed us tonight. Was it perfect tonight in the 2nd quarter no, but that’s not why we lost. It’s back to back seasons that have ended because I didn’t have us prepared enough to handle the physical play that takes place this late. That’s my coaching error I will own. I let an amazing group of seniors down and failed. it’s funny how quickly everyone forgets what Onalaska was before the last two years. Before last year our program had zero playoff wins and zero district championships. We now have multiple district championships and back to back regional final runs.

I like the Onalaska pick. I think it’s gonna be a great game, Dont get me wrong I think Palestine Westwood has the most talent between the two teams.. but I think Onalaska is the better team overall if that makes sense.

She will be hired by CNN, MSNBC or The View. That's a certainty.

Brookeland 79 Moulton 58 final Brookeland advances to the Regional Final 3 years in a row!!

Didn't you vote for Trump, CB?

I got OF winning by 15+

These are the teams I am picking to win in our 19 2nd round games: Atascocita over FB Elkins North Shore over Pearland Humble over Dawson West Brook over Kingwood Park Baytown Sterling over Crosby Beaumont United over Lake Creek Livingston over Bullard Huntington over Trinity Orangefield over Hitchcock Buna over New Waverly Onalaska over Central Heights San Augustine over Overton Chireno over Douglass Big Sandy over Granger Brookeland over Lometa I got 15 of our teams moving on to 3rd round. I have Summer Creek, Crosby, Kingwood Park, Bridge City, Silsbee, Trinity, New Waverly, Central Heights and Sabine Pass ending their seasons.

Orangefield school board has set a bond election for May 2 for improvements to athletic facilities. The improvements will be turf to football, baseball and softball fields as well as expanded seating, additional lighting and additional parking. Also new pressbox at the football stadium. These are much needed upgrades. Hopefully it will pass this time.

You can try that nonsense with someone else, I voted for the turd 3 times but will be critical of him if he’s not following through on his promises. You’re a cult member not a supporter. You need to layoff the orange dust.

Looking forward to Warren beating Newton this year when they get a good coach.

UIL rules have changed that doesn't allow some teams to play warm up games these days. Teams now have game limits and once they have reached those limits, you are not allowed to play any extra unless it's for district seeding or play in games. Most teams these days play tournaments that are pool play which allows teams to play more tourney games. That adds up over the season. Also several play in multiple holiday jamborees which adds to their totals. Really the only teams that can play warm up games these days are teams that have to wait till football is over to start their basketball season. Sometimes that's two to three weeks after everyone else has started. Usually that is only in the 3A and down classifications. We still have some teams that will play warm up games this year. I have already received info on some of the games. I will be posting a Seed/Play In/Warm Up Game Info thread on Wednesday morning.

I have no desire to “get” Trump or destroying MAGA. Go MAGA. I just don’t want him to deter pursuing the guilty, which he is doing.

I just found out on another thread that Trump got with Israel, our military leaders, and dropped all these bombs on Iran just to distract from the Epstein files. Trump would have got away with it, if it were not for these pesky posters on this forum. It was right there in front of me and the world, and they seen what we couldn’t…..amazing!

This has been a long time coming on what’s going on right now.

Silsbee beat 6A top 10 Summer Creek 3-2 today in tournament play. The girls are very young and are off to a hot start. Freshmen starting at short, 3rd, and RF. 16 + home runs already and the defense is improving. Let’s keep it going.

I believe you just told on yourself. Only CB would make that comment.

“I’m not a fan of President Trump, but I’m rooting for America that this is a successful mission. I hope it meets its objective with the least possible causalities of our soldiers.” I’ve been waiting to hear that….. but I truly believe some of you are hoping it does not succeed.

Do you have any clue how disrespectful this is to the Service members and their families? Disagree with the policy. Disagree with POTUS. That’s fine. Don’t minimize or trivialize someone’s death who swore on their life—which they gave full measure—to protect you.

And if he'd been born a Biden, his Daddy would blindly pardon him... Or if her name was Mary Jo Kopechne it would've been swept under the rug... But wtf does Trump or anyone else have to do with this conversation???

I think JFK would be a little concerned that his party no longer knows what a woman is. He certainly did.

Silsbee vs. Houston ISD teams over the last 13 seasons (2013-present) Overall record 26-8 Playoff record 19-6 Since the 2016 season, Silsbee is 15-3 vs. Houston ISD in the playoffs. The three losses were to Yates in 2019 regional final, Washington in 2023 regional final, Wheatley in 2025 2nd round. Wheatley ended up in state championship game. One could say that Silsbee has owned Houston ISD over the last dozen years. I see the overall going to 26-9, playoff record to 19-7.

Russia Hoax was a perfect example of a crooked DOJ and no one has been arrested for it even with proof. We can’t run a country with a sitting President (Obama) spying on an incoming president and manufacturing nonsense against the incoming administration in order to destroy them. That’s just one example of many.

BC-66 Palestine-54 Bush had 37. BC couldn’t get any shots to fall but pulled away to about 23 late in the fourth quarter.

Was just informed by a very credible insider that Toby is very interested in Jasper and look for him to apply.

I can't wait for coach Iggy Azalea to come back and tell us all about his illustrious coaching career and how much smarter he is than all of us.

True dat!

We’ll no doubt the Epstein Administration is holding strong.

This Epstein thread really reminds me of the climate issue democrats are so passionate about. 1950's - Greenhouse effect 1980's - Global Warming 2000's - Climate Change The Epstein Files - Initially - This is the end of trump, we got him now. -After first release - They have redacted names to protect Trump - He's in there somewhere -After Latest release - He's covering for his friends.....

I agree with that to a point. As I’ve preached my opinion on here many times, it’s a combination of coaches, kids & community support. Really gotta have all 3 if you want continued success. You gotta have a good horse and not a mule for sure. But you also have to have a good jockey/trainer and an owner who’s willing to spend the money it takes. Since we’re doing the Kentucky Derby thing.

yeah …..the border doesn’t bother you till you lose your job to an illegal or your daughter is raped and murder by an illegal. I will say Trump has done an excellent job on the border.

Here you go, since you’re apparently too lazy to verify. Couldn’t find it on CNN or MSNBC so that’s probably why you weren’t aware. [Hidden Content]

Alabama's Bediako has been denied his motion for a preliminary injunction to continue to play. Now will NCAA make Bama forfeit the games he played in? NCAA had always ruled the player ineligible.

So did the trade deficit, the national debt, layoffs, and the price of groceries. You’re not seeing a growth in value of the stocks, what you’re seeing is a devaluation of the dollar. The t-bones I bought for 3.99 a pound four years ago are on sale for 9.99 per pound this weekend at Brookshire brothers. It won’t matter if you got a million dollars in your retirement account if one day a new pickup truck costs a hundred thousand dollars thanks to tariffs. Oh, wait….

After this year, we don’t care who wins.
