  1. [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1386730" timestamp="1363723572"] [Hidden Content] Is turf hidden somewhere in there? ;) 8) [/quote] As a matter of public trust it would be improper to "hide" turf in a bond proposal without being up front and honest with the public.  The only way I would support it is if it was a stand-alone proposal so that the taxpayer could vote up or down on that single issue.  I wonder if you actually heard that from the superintendent or is that wishful thinking; because turf is NOT embedded in the Silsbee bond proposal as it has been developed by the community committee, voted on by the board, and presented to the public. If the bond passes and if the stated scope of work is completed under budget, then there would be two options (a) spend only what's needed and keep the tax rate as low as possible or (b) issue bonds for the residual amount to finance important unmet needs (e.g. aging bus fleet) that are vital to education.

[/quote] TV, you can bet I won't be up late worrying about these things late tonight ... will we see ya Thursday? got it from a reliable source ... there had been small chance for Lee College, but Sealy may have balked at costs, even though a DH with PA Memorial was a possibility [/quote] Hopefully that will be a much better location than the dungeon at College Park. [/quote] Getting to and from College Park to Silsbee was a nightmare last time ... Baytown is much more accessible all around ... but what happened to Lee College? [/quote] As of last night........there was very little chance of Silsbee/ Sealy playing at Lee.  I spoke with the man in charge at Lee College and Silsbee was on the list to play there Friday night, but they were way down the list!!!!  Several teams would have had to cancel for Silsbee to get the gym.  I love that gym and so do the Hawks!!!! [/quote] At the risk of getting logged by a moderator, didn't you just say what I had already said shortly after mid-night.  I could have gone to bed a lot earlier than I did!!!   :-\ [/quote] At the risk of being severly smited for being the perennial smart a$$, is someone holding a gun to your head making you stay up to read this board? :-\ [/quote]
  3. [quote name="LAZEEK" post="971088" timestamp="1298497551"] No in reference to the previous statement!!!! [/quote] Just jacking with ya ... we were basically on the same page ... Lee was a long shot at best and even if we were at the top of the list, not sure the Sealy coaches liked to cost of playing there.  Just glad Giddings did not advance because I was told we probably would have had to head to College Park ... hated the drive there last year, plus the place was as dark as a cave.  :P
  4. [quote name="stevenash" post="971047" timestamp="1298492518"] Gee- it seems to me like the coaching staff at Silsbee has done a very good job this year, thus permitting me to come to the conclusion that they know what they are doing and how they should handle warm up games better than those of us who frequent this board. [/quote] They wanted a tougher opponent but were told they could not travel outside of Harding County ...

  6. [quote name="Bruce" post="936679" timestamp="1292881545"] Attitude matters. Talent matters. Work ethic matters. Nothing else does.  Got more tattoos than Dennis Rodman?  As long as you listen to the coaches and work hard, I could care less.  Got more piercings than a punk band?  Same deal.  Be on time, put in the effort, put the team first, and I'm good with it. I don't care if our starting QB has a crew cut, dreadlocks, no hair, orange hair, or Troy Polamalu hair.  I care if he has the talent to win games, a "team first" attitude, and the willingness to work to improve.  If he doesn't, I don't want him.   The idea that we are good enough to be making arbitrary decisions about what a player should "look like" before we "allow" him on our roster is either asinine, naive, or both.  To be successful at our level, we're always going to need to be taking chances on guys who are a little short on ability (size, for example), who have had issues in the past, or who are looking for playing time after transferring.  To reject a guy with exceptional talent and *four* years of potential eligibility because his hairstyle doesn't meet someone's standards doesn't even deserve serious debate on this board.   Welcome to LU, JJ.   [/quote] Bruce, agree with you on the college level, but a the high school level there are all sorts of reason's you want to set higher standards for those that participate in extracurricular activities -- i.e. sports, band, cheerleading, etc.  Head coach ought to have discretion to set whatever rules of conduct.  At the high school level it's still about teaching the student to put the best interests of the group ahead of themselves.  As for JJ ... good luck ... attitude and effort count for alot.  Let's see if he's matured to the point where he can put notions that he's the "franchise" behind him.  It might be tough this close to home and close to family ... there's no doubt that he has the inherent athleticism.

[/quote] Agreed .. .do not understand why Sislbee was uanable or unwilling to schedule a challenging opponent.  I saw where Dallas Madison played Burkburnett ... that's the kind of matchup we should be looking for in a warm up game. [/quote] If I was told correctly the Coaches didn't have that option. [/quote] Who took that option away ...

  13. [quote name="NorthoftheBorder" post="969481" timestamp="1298306606"] [/quote] Thanks for the update.  I am confidant that LU will not make a move unless Dr. Simmons is convinced it willl work.  I am sure he and his team is working this diligently to make happen if possible.  As I have said before, I will trust Dr. Simmons.  By the way, what is a DMA viewing area? [/quote] DMA stands for Designated Market Area.  Nielsen (TV) & Arbitron (radio) divide the country up into regions/areas where they make audience measurements.  Technical speaking it means we can receive the same (or similar) television, radio station offerings, and other types of media such as newspapers and Internet content (such as SETXSPORTS!)

  15. :o :o :o Those Hawks are the best friggin team in SETX from 3A-5A ... that's what I'm talking about. Battle Tested, Battle Hard Prediction: Hawks vs. Jasper into Elite 8 :P :P :P Once again board members and people interested this is a Silsbee fan stirring the pot and not a HJ fan!!!! Grow up kid!!!!!
  16. Hardin Jefferson is absolutely the very best team in the state. They own SE Texas and are going to walk all over Cleveland. Burrell and Burnard are the best one-two in the area and that includes all the way up to 5A PAS Memorial. This is their year again and they will own Cleveland. Cleveland fans will not know what hit them and will be in for a real treat. Never have they seen better basketball. Silsbee better watch out too!!!!! :o
  17. Ang Green -- Silsbee 36 pts at Hamshire-Fannett in 79-71 win 22 pts against WOS in 93-26 win w/limited minutes Reaches 2014 in career points
  18. Wharton team was both fast & quick last night. They had the advantage of scouting the Cleveland game and they sure didn't share any tape of themselves with the Tigers. Big play by Terrence Jones in the first half (12 tough points inside) carried the Tigers; them Harper and Robinson turned it up in the second half ending with about 9 and 13 respectively. I think Brewer had only 2 at the end, but like in the Cleveland game he came up with some big blocks and caused some bad shots by the Wharton Tigers at time. He reminds me of how a Robert Parrish could affect shot taking inside. Silsbee literally spilled blood in the win, as several players were scratched and marred with the tough inside play, one even suffering a broken nose. No wonder Coach Williams took a "T" defending his players. In the end, the players fought out a tough win for the coach that is willing to stand up for his kids. Hoping they realize that nothing can be taken for granted, and that in the end its them against the world.
  19. My understanding is that Silsbee faces Coldspring and the coaches were meeting today in Liberty to work out details. Possibilities include Angelina JC in Lufkin Tuesday night at 7:30. Has Kountze already locked up that location and time?
  20. Who's playing for the region final at Huntsville ....
  21. I am wondering if the refs let them play this game. Where can I get stats on number of free throws and number of fouls called?
  22. Now's the time for everyone to pull behind the boys as they make their run. Big win against a quick Wharton team looking to get even for what ya'll put on them in the area round.
