I am not that emotional about it. (evidently you are) No hate here. Just call it like I see it. Several teams have put a beat down on my Tigers this year. Not surprised of that fact considering how down they are this year. I don't make assessments based on my home town team losing a game. I think I am a little more credible than that.

Never mind. You’re so caught up in your emotions that you can’t even recognize when someone is giving your son his props. Instead of accepting that, you turn every comment into a back-and-forth, like a tennis match, just to keep driving your point home. And trust me — we understand the point. He’s great. He has no flaws. Everything that goes wrong is the team’s fault. If it weren’t for him, they’d be completely lost. Message received. Repeatedly. What could have been a simple acknowledgment has turned into a lecture, and honestly, it’s exhausting. Not everything needs to be defended, corrected, or escalated just to prove superiority. That said, I genuinely hope he and his team have a great season. No sarcasm there. God bless, and good night.

I’m guessing #21 is your son based on how strongly you’re defending him — and that’s totally fine. Nobody said he was a bad player. The point is, it’s tough to win big when one guy dominates the ball. I actually know the kid well — he played for my guy this summer. So this isn’t shade, it’s just basketball. Talent needs structure, and winning takes more than one

What other games this week are of interest?

Games I'll be keeping an eye on Bridge city @ Silsbee Livingston @ Hardin Jefferson Although not a marquis game the Danbury @ Deweyville game is a chance for the boys to start 1-0 in district and I think they have a solid chance on accomplishing just that.

Center has some of the nicest facilities in East Texas. The practice field is identical to the one in Marshall.

I honestly don't remember any conversation with you about a Silsbee player. I make predictions all the time. I get way more right than I do wrong. (check the football pickems this year). I don't lament on when I get some wrong but it seems you are always wanting to point those out to me. (never hear from you when I am right) I understand your emotional responses. It's your team. I get it. I think you have missed the point. All that's being said is nobody should be surprised when Tarkington loses to good teams. The makeup of their team limits them against good teams. The fact that #21 has to do so much is actually a detriment to the team when playing quality opponents. Tarkington really has no choice. That's all that's being said. It's why I think they will miss the playoffs. I just don't see them beating Livingston, HJ, HF and Huffman because of their limitations. Limitations that you have commented on in this thread. But keep on pointing out my misses if that makes you feel important.

Factual?

Most PG's don't take over 60% of the shots. That's what I meant by "going thru". My and Mamba's point is when they face good teams who are able to control #21, then Tarkington is pretty much dead in the water and no one should be surprised when they lose games to good teams. Maybe I wasn't all that wrong when picking what teams were going to make the playoffs out of this district.😉 We will see.

Yup, and the other thing is folks confusing policy with law. They say he walked in front of her car.....He did, kinda. The video from afar I watched, he starts walking up to the car as it is in reverse. My guess is he thought she was actually complying by backing up off the road. So he did not get Infront of a vehicle moving towards him, he actually got in "front" of the vehicle as it was moving away from him. Then she throws it in drive and spins her tires and basically side swipes him.

With last night's win over Jasper, the Tigers extend their district game win streak to 53 straight, tying the all time record at Silsbee set between 2015-20. Silsbee will look to set a new record when they host a tough Bridge City team Tuesday night.

Thought it would have been closer. But I haven’t seen OF this year. Sounds like a solid win.

I’m honestly not as surprised at this result as some may be…
