Well, my streak finally comes to an end
AthleticSupporter - Jock and 9 others reacted to AggiesAreWe for a topic
After 51 straight years of attending the boys basketball state tournament, my streak will end this season as I will not be attending this year. My goal since I started going was to attend as many as my dad did who started taking me when I was 8 years old in 1972. My dad ended up attending 50 straight, his last time going in 2007. I made 51 straight last season. My priorities have changed over the years and my interest has waned some the last couple of years. Got grand sons to run around with now (T-ball, soccer, etc.) along with hanging out at the beach. With the wife and I retired now, just got other things I want to do. Actually I'll be hitting the new Horseshoe casino next week. I enjoyed each and every trip to the state tourney. Great memories with my dad and got to see some great basketball. I have been truly blessed. I may attend another state tourney (particularly if Silsbee goes) but the streak had to end sometime. Will miss hanging out with coaches, officials, media and fans that attended on a regular basis. Good luck To Beaumont United next week. Bring home that 3rd state championship.10 points -
Being Coach Calvert myself, I’d be surprised. If I move my family, it would only be to get closer to the WOS 🔥7 points

Fantastic season for United! That’s an incredible achievement to move up to 6A and make it to the state championship. Hard to not feel like BU had a real chance to win this one. Their execution and shooting in the 2nd half killed them. That said, LH got away with at least three goaltends, and I can’t ever remember a game where every single close block/charge call went the way of one team, but it was that way tonight, on close to ten calls.6 points

DuBois named Vidor new AD/Head Football Coach
Tim Riggins and 5 others reacted to oldschool2 for a topic
It's hilarious to me. The Orangefield Coach/Team was emphatically congratulated on the season they had... while running the Slot-T. Coincidentally, the predicted front runner and spread team of the district (Anahuac).. had their season ended by eventual state champ and another Slot-T team (Franklin). It's almost as if people don't realize the irony.6 points -

While we’re addressing that, why not also address school districts like Houston (196k students) and Dallas (154k students) being allowed to participate in 3A, 4A, and 5A playoffs due to school size, while pulling talent to those teams from all across the city. For the most part not a big deal in football, but the basketball playoffs are a joke in 4A and 5A. The success Silsbee (2700 students in the district) has managed playing in what has become a big school tournament has been nothing short of extraordinary.5 points

It's funny how in this world, you really can't have a opinion. Matthews did a hell of a job, and changed many kids lives for the better. In the eyes of every fans you are judged on the what have you done lately rule. Let's be honest with coaches from High School to Pros, you must win, you are judged by that. I feel if Matthews schemed a passing game into his playbook, his teams would have been difficult to beat over the years. However my hat is off to this guy on a great job. I enjoyed the games my sons played against him. Wish you much success coach.5 points

22-3A All District Picks
footballproud and 3 others reacted to buccaneers4lyfe for a topic
Wow... a couple things stand out on this list, and I saw every team in the district when they came to winnie. No superlatives for East Chambers is ridiculous Green not being on first team is ridiculous. Keep in mind We were ranked in the top 15 a good portion of the year. Orangefield only having only 1 guy on 1st team is a joke, Either their coach is the new phil jackson or coaches openly chose to not to vote for EC or Orangefield guys. How is Orangefield even ranked by the looks of this list. Buna having 3 first teamers is absurd, they squeaked into the playoffs in and barely were 500. Soapbox over,4 points -

An update on the Fraudulent Election.

I ve been saying this for a long time. And it’s so easy to see all the possible problems with mail in ballots…..but we have corrupt officials who push it cause they supposedly want inclusion: nothing but a disguise to get what they want. One of the most foundational important right we have and people want to be lazy about it…. to me it should be made a national Day off so there is no excuses. Get off your butt and go vote IN PERSON. save your excuses, buts, ifs election integrity matters3 points -
Alltime wins SETX Coaches
lil brother and 2 others reacted to TxHoops for a topic
Sutherland’s numbers are just mind boggling. At the 100 year anniversary of the UiL, he had been coaching 29 years and had 819 wins (over 900 now). Sig had been coaching 24 years with 513 wins. The great Jackie Carr had 828 wins in 26 seasons. Point is Todd isn’t just a hall of fame coach. He will go down as one of the GOATs.3 points -

Vaccination Food For Thought
5GallonBucket and 2 others reacted to WOSdrummer99 for a topic
Studies can prove almost anything one is looking for. And if they don't like the results, it's not published. By your account of being ineffective, I survived the covid all on my own immune system. If that was possible, why so much push for the everyone to get the vaccine? Everyone... no screening or background check? Just come line up and hope for the best.3 points -
Who has the best chance to make it to state next season?
BBfan061 and 2 others reacted to oldschool2 for a topic
Imagine thinking you can predict the success of a high school football team based on the previous 5 years. Literally 5 groups of seniors gone and 2 and a half potential classification changes. Not to mention move ins, possible injuries, coaching changes, etc.. This is hilarious. I'm patiently waiting for the conversation to turn to who has a better personality based on astrological sign. This has, "we're gonna be good because we won a state title in the 80s" vibes all over it.3 points -

So there were applicants from Kansas, Rockport-Fulton & Tyler? But the job was not well advertised? You think an Assistant at Southlake Carroll who did not apply should have been hired? You think they should run any other offense as long as it isn’t the Slot T. Vidor tried the Spread, the flex one, e den the slot T out of the gun. They have run a 3-3, 4-2-5, 3-4 defenses also. Don’t hear much on here about that! I also hear that Vidor has Speed that could be shown off in another offense. Please prove this one to me!!! Who are these speedsters? Where are they? Please tell us something that the coaches haven’t evaluated.3 points

more like ignorant coaches. kids today are soft, no argument there, but putting them in the hospital isn't how you fix it. if a coach makes kids do work that they physically are incapable of doing and badly hurts them, that's on the coach, not the kid or parent. it's the coach's responsibility to build up the child's ability to do the work. Of course, these coaches seem to understand that concept just fine until they're mad and want to punish the kids for something. That was the case here, and also at Hamshire-Fannett a few years ago. The coaches get pissed, and then all of a sudden they forget that it's their responsibility to keep their athletes safe. Work them to the point of hospitalization, then play dumb and act like they didn't do anything wrong. Your reference to North Shore doesn't really work, because North Shore isn't putting their players in the hospital. If they did, there would be plenty of complaints. That said, it's not an issue. while those coaches work their players very hard, they do it responsibly, unlike the coach here from Rockwall Heath.3 points

Some of y’all told me this group was going to be as good or better than the Adams, McCain, Bush group. I found that hard to believe. Results aside, that has never passed the eye test with me. Thought it was unfair to this group to put that type of weight on their shoulders. Still do. Really good bunch who still has one more year to leave their mark and I hope they do. But as I said when they were coming in as freshman. Really good group of kids but let’s slow our roll. They aren’t THAT. Conversely, we did have a group that does meet or surpass that group. And they are COACHED by a Silsbee guy. Go get that three peat Wolves!3 points

I disagree. Silsbee wins the close games. Washington tends to lose hard, tough close games. That's why I stated that Silsbee kids are tougher, hard nose and Washington isn't. That was the difference last year. I see it going the same this year.3 points
