Back when I played parents never went to the head coach and complained. They knew better because that coach would have told them to hit the street and take your son with you. Now days a head coaches office is like a revolving door. It never stops. [/quote] AMEN!!!!!! You nailed it... ;) [/quote]

Volleyball Tournament plays begins today in Woodville. Who do you think will take this Tournament?

These two teams played a couple of weeks ago in the "Eagles Nest".. It was a very explosive, hard played game. The teams went toe to toe, tied at 2 games each. Newton prevail in game 5 "tie breaker" by 3, points. So this Tuesday, September 7 @ 4:30pm .. the Eagles will enter the Mustang Corral...... the Mustangs are seeking revenge.....any predictions????

[quote name="purpleeagle" post="836855" timestamp="1283440927"] Mr. W.W. from Brkv, what is the difference between him bashing your team and you continually bashing him over this site? Does two wrongs make a right? Everyone in Brkv and NEWTON knows it was a true statement but a a statement that should not have been printed in the newspaper or said publicly. It's time to move on. [/quote] keep living what goes around comes back around..

[/quote] if you want these people to shut up and sit down then quit respoding to them and attacking them!  You say everything is fine now, then good!  Quit worrying about what Barbay thinks of your team and move on.  The best way to prove your point (that your team is not terrible and everying is ok) is to win on field.  If your team was doing well and had a good year last year then it wouldnt even had matter what he said about you.  I think some are wearing their feeling on their shoulders because they are sore they had a rough year.  I know one thing, you will not win your argument about what kind of person Barbay is, compared to what kinda of person you think he should be when your arguing your point to a bunch of Eagle fans on a message board that Barbay probably dont even read.  Thats just my opinion! [/quote] thanks for your opinion, but it would have mattered either way.. because of what he is suppose to stand for.. which as is the upliftment and empowerment of todays youth, helping them to be the best they can be on and off the field.. and by the way I'm not attacking anyone,you have your views, I have mine, and they have theirs.. no hard feelings this way.. but just as u back your team, we back our as well win, lose or draw, it doesnt matter. And it was never about winning an arguement. I just statement my opinion to the thread and my opinion was attacked...as I stated before no hard feeling toward newtons team or fans.. I still support them as well ..my spouse is an eagle.. but for barbay ,, right is right and wrong is wrong...

Burkeville @ Chester thursday 4:30pm any predictions...?

This is gonna be a great game... Two good ball clubs collide.. Although I am not pulling for any team.. I'm staying neutral got family on both teams plus my spouse is an Eagle Alumni..so that's a good arguement in my house. Burkeville plays saturday @legacy in Beaumont...   

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="835891" timestamp="1283289738"] Here is what was said in the paper. "The last game will be with Kountze. Last year, well Burkeville was playing too, but they had to be one of the sorriest teams that put on uniforms. They've got to be better because you don't get no worse than they were. Now that's the kind of game you really hate to play because that's the kind of game that you get people hurt in. Guys will be standing around and somebody will get a knee hurt, twist an ankle, something like that." He was speaking to a hometown lions club meeting and giving a game by game run down of the season. Something he has done for years. [/quote] Glad you found the article so what does Newton season have to do with Burkeville... Nothing!!!!

If it was ur team and ur community u would feel the same way. [/quote] he has been saying that about kirbyville just about every week the past five years and you dont see anyone from there demanding an apology.  Your school and community is just going to have to get used to that.  Thats him, take it or leave it, and I promise you the community of Newton is not going to leave it.  Its not like your telling them anything they dont aready know.  They have accepted him for who he is and thats all that matters.  Your preaching into the wind, its time to get brush it off and get over it!! [/quote] that's whats wrong with this picture.. Barbay is not above anyone else, he can't just go areound saying what ever jsut because he is barbay.. he is not the only coach in this area with winning traditions.. they are plenty of schools in this beaumont/ jasper / newton area with great coaches, but they are not out dogging other schools.. Thats completely uncalled for.

[/quote] newton county news paper does not have full articles online.. but you can call the paper @ 409-379-2416 and try to get a copy of the article. It ran on the front page of the Newton county paper about 2 weeks ago. he is speaking at lucheon at the loins club. I sure the paper will be happy to get u a copy of the article. he is speaking about the eagles and what to expect this year, and all of sudden he starts talking about how sorry our team is and how those type of kids get other kids hurt by standing around on the field.  anyway contact them and read it for yourself. Why were we even brought up? I've never had a problem with Barbay always respect him as person and a coach until now.

He said it during a lucheon. We at Burkeville was stunned, because we have never had any type of  problems with Barbay. So we are dumb found as to why he would just single out our school?

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="835727" timestamp="1283272010"] You are entitled to your opinion. I don't quite think facts will back you up on some of your statements. Coach Harper has been a very fine coach at Burkeville, but to say Burkeville's program has out shined Newton and all other area programs is more than a bit of a stretch. Barbay is far from the Henry Kissinger of high school coaches, but says what he thinks, and this is not anything new. [/quote] check your history... Burkeville has a been successful ever since Coach Harper came to burkeville which was about 35 + years ago.. Maybe I should break my statement down for you.. I didnt say Burkeville program has out shined Newton and all area programs.. what I said was that during the time Newton any of the other area programs were under going a rebuild and Burkeville was not.. Our Administration --ie.. Coach Harper.. did not dogg the other programs for not winning games during certain periods throughout the years..  No we continued to play our football and mined our own business. Like Barbay should do. If he isnt trying to help the children then he needs to shut up and sit down.  Not aid in making the situation worse.. and as parent I surely don't want somebody with that attitude, coaching my kid.. And you wonder y u need security at some of these local area games.. Our schools are in the same county, I wonder if Barbay ever stop to think that he may be talking about some his players family members? And how that may affect his players, calling thier family sorry..?

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="835696" timestamp="1283269853"] Yea, yea, yea. That's the only reason we have those state championship trophies, Burkeville kids. [/quote] My point is this.. Burkeville has 35 plus years of winning tradition, under Coach Roy Harper.. Barbay has his success as well. Even when Newton and all the area schools program was not as successful as our program at that time, never  has Burkeville's Adminstration ever talked down on another school program or kids.. Barbey is viewed as a community leader and educator,and never should a with person his leadership role ever low rate children. He is put in position to elavated and motivate kids not tear them down. Every program at some point has to regroup and rebuild.. just because we lost a few games doesnt mean our kids are sorry. I have always supported Newton as well as Burkeville, because I have family in both districts.I have always respected Barbay as well but as from this moment on..I will continue to support the children of Newton

[/quote] How many playoff games have Burkeville been involved in the past 5 years? What you call dogging I call the truth. Burkeville has not been competitive in several years. [/quote] Regardless to how many playoff games burkeville has been involved or not involved in.. Does not give Barbay the right to say what he said about a group of kids who are directly affected by a situation that was beyond their control.. Unless u know the whole story, stop making assumptions. If burkeville kids are so sorry, y was barbay recruiting kids from our school district  to play on his eagle team? Yeah he did check out for your self.. he had several kids from cr 1012 playing for his team and the were not in that school district. he spent many summers trying to recriut our kids...

Barbay needs to retire or be fired...

Of course Burkeville wins lets say 20-7
