    Settle down! It's just a joke - not trying to get personal. And I can almost gurantee you that most people probably chuckled a bit at that line, and honestly, it IS the truth. A post about UIL soccer is against form.

    Bullets, I'm doing well. Ready to crank the season up. We only lost 3 seniors from last year's team that went three rounds deep, and one of our returners was the leading scorer in 5A in San Antonio last year.

    Ok I am sorry... You are right any post other than SFA post are abnormal at this time..  You have any female talent to send SFA's way we are loosing 5 contributing Seniors...one played in the Olympics for South Africa. We need a distributing (ala point guard) center midfielder, two outside mids and one center back and one outside back... premier or solid div 1 experienced preferred.
    thanks for your help!

    soccer forum is fairly dead these days, Bon.  I hope all is well for you!

    AMEN Bullets!  I hope your friend Bon is really a cool cat... but it seems we get under each others skin.

    I came on here to be entertained on a somewhat slow boring day and the first thing I get is this cat dogging me personally or SFA.

    I know this goes against form since it's not a thread about the SFA women's soccer program.

    Why you hating on SFA.... the girls that are playing collegiate soccer all started some where else... maybe it will inspire the younger 3A 4A 5A or 2A players to strive for something and achieve when they can see a contemporary player achieve some success. ms prince  is arguably one of the best female players to come out of Beaumont to date with many more on the horizon( I have spent several hours at the Quinn Indoor and have witnessed some very talented kids). I know it inspired Zuri to see older players like Neresa Taylor and Lori Tebeaux (sp) ( no kin to Tim)  go on to play in college.


    I will say it is quite a bummer that most of the current post are authored by me and do involve SFA but we do have a lengthy history with soccer in the Golden Triangle over the past decade and a half and I guess  I am one of the few people in the neighborhood who has something  to say about soccer right now ..  you could have left the SFA comment off your otherwise quality post and with that said keep the Haterade in the bottle!

    ps. You only have to deal with SFA post for two more years after this season because she is a sophmore.. but then you may have to get use to WPL post cause Houston South Select was dieing for her to play this past summer and who knows  there maybe WPL Elite posts after that.  ;D

  10. Anyone make the Jasper Co-op Meeting for Campbell leases

    Me too.  I've heard that all Campbell leases were going to either MLD or LAMPS next season.

    Our lease which is Campbell controlled has been on LAMPS for at least 10yrs.. my understanding is Campbell is going to try to take us all through the progression of MLD to reach Level 3 eventually.

    My biggest concern this year was the fact we were all suppose to do camera and spot light surveys this past summer ( late August early Sept) to get a inventory of the herd to set allocations for harvest and I was curious to know who did their homework.

  12. deer season

    .Anything on scent blockers (doe pee, sprays etc..) or calls (antlers rattling or buck call etc..)?
    [/quote]

    I have mixed feelings about the effectiveness of scent blockers or eliminators but I still use them. I think if the wind is wrong where you are setting up it won't matter and if the wind is right, it also won't matter. It makes me feel better to use them sometimes though.

    As far as calls, they can work at the right time or they can be no help or they can hurt by scaring deer off. It all depends on location and timing. Deer seem to be curious and noises attract them many times. The real deal though is when the deer are in their rut.

    I have called in deer a couple of times but not often. I saw a pretty good big buck walking about 40 from my bow stand. He was checking out the feeder that I was near but kept on walking into the thick brush, walking away from me. I grabbed one of those doe bleat cans and hit is a couple of times. I sat in the ladder stand about 18 feet up and thought that I wouldn't see him again. A few minutes later I heard a twig snap. I looked below me and that buck was directly under my stand. He managed to come back to the exact spot of the sound of a (probably what he thought was) hot doe.

    Another time I was hunting in south Texas in a ground blind on a bow hunting day lease. I saw a buck walking away from me and rattles some horns a few times and then stopped. That buck stopped almost in his tracks and looked back my way. He then walked into the bush where I had a hard time seeing him but he made his way near my ground blind to see which bucks had invaded his territory.

    Those two times, I was in the right place at the right time that those sounds draw the bucks back in. Maybe other times it worked and the deer just came from an area that I never saw them. I will never know but those two times it was obvious. I think there are times that if the deer are not in the right mood, the sounds might scare them away if they are too close when you use them.

    I also think the buck to doe ratio might make a big difference also. If there are 6 does to every buck like on my east Texas lease for a good while (until we really thinned out the does) I believe the sounds of does in heat or fighting bucks is less effective. In other areas where it is close to 1 to 1 or 2 to 1, there is huge competition between bucks and the sound of fighting will bring them running.

    It just depends...........

    Coach Amato said it was Zuri's best game of the year.

    She had a beautiful bend it like Beckham far poster.. that people came from 60 yards away to tell me what a great shot it was... I tried to act all nonchalant about it like I have seen it many times..(lol) While inside I was doing cartwheels (yippie)!!!!!

  23. SFA vs Baylor

    in SETXsports Archived Threads

    Can you say taken to the wood shed?  3-0 first half 4-0 final.. out gunned out manned beat up.

    The old saying that when the going gets tough the tough get going surely applied here.... several of the otherwise would be stars.. just fail to show up when the competition level reaches the heights to which Baylor brings. Not knocking just disappointing when you get in a game of this magnitude those players fade.. There were three who played their butts off and I am proud to say that Zuri was one of them.. she proved to me and anyone their she can play on a High Big 12 level ( former teammate and Baylor student Claire "Bear" Dykeman said " Zuri played awesome") and there was one freshman defender and a old wily senior vet who left it all on the field they were both shutting down the best that Baylor could throw at them.... but their were some who win SLC first team and new comers who had little or no impact whats so ever.

    Dukeism  when it matters most... that did not show up in the big game.


    Baylor was Bigger Stronger and tenacious as I do not know what.. a competitive drive that would almost be considered nasty.. in a good way and many of our players could not match the physical attributes of the common Baylor player but what I was missing was that competitive ( although I walk through the valley of the shadow of death) spirit... Audey Murphy type stuff.. I am taking this hill if it kills me stuff... that is what was missing and disappointing... from our week to week would be stars.

    The outcome of the game would not change 9 of 10 games.. but you want to see folks play their best at all times.  Look out Big 12 Baylor is for real.. and I would hate to play OSU.. it would be ugly.

    so I have been returned to reality after beating Houston, Rice, TCU and being very competitive matches against Texas Tech and LSU.. the top of the Big 12 is a horse of a different color.
