Why would he ever pick against his home team? Objectively? Have you ever heard him broadcast a Silsbee baseball game? He is a little biased dontcha think??? [/quote] Well, it is a Silsbee broadcast, paid for by Silsbee sponsors, so it would stand a reason for a little bit of bias. ::) I have had many a person (not Silsbee folk) tell me I broadcast without too much "homerism". [/quote] AAW calls a good game, no matter what sport. He makes it a point to give credit where credit is due, no matter who it is or what school they play for. It's difficult to fill all the air time during a broadcast without talking about your hometown team but he certainly does his best. I enjoy both his broadcasts and his insight on High School sports both on the radio and on this website. His sarcasm is also the source for many laughs as well. I don't always agree with him but I certainly respect what he has to say. Rake1 [/quote] Thanks Rake, that means a lot coming from you. I appreciate it very much.

[/quote]Listened to the AAW broadcast of last year Silsbee-WO-S, the dust bowl I think and I (WOS fan) did not detect any bias.  Thats very difficult to do. [/quote] Even if the broadcast displayed a bias, there is no fault in that. He is calling the game for a radio station, school,  and audience that is all in Silsbee. [/quote] Thanks griff for that post. I agree that I may show a little bias at times but I still try to be as objective as possible when I do a broadcast. I have praised the opponent many times on good play and effort and I have been critical at times towards my Tigers and have even shown some disappointment in their play, but I will always support my hometown team and believe that it being a Silsbee broadcast, it should have a "maroon" flavor to it. ;)

[quote name="hjhawks" post="1423770" timestamp="1376362789"] what would those reasons be? just curious.... [/quote] Illness comes to mind, along with parents who just chose to hold a kid back. Not saying this was the case here but, those are reasons other than failing.

[quote name="BucNasty" post="1423671" timestamp="1376341899"] Seriously, I think Silsbee will go to the same round as last year. Third and home. Yates will dominate 3A Region 3 again this year. [/quote] Ya think? ::)

[quote name="aschom78" post="1423666" timestamp="1376340363"] I'll just say this. If the players aren't going out there to "Win" then what is the point of having a scrimmage? Practice hard play hard, practice soft play soft. [/quote] So if team A 1st team scores 4 TD's on team B's 1st team (team B's 1st team does not score), but team B's 2nd team scores 5 TD's against team A's 2nd team (team A 2nd team does not score), with all this done in a "controlled, set amount of plays, no kicking game" scrimmage, it's deemed that team B "wins" the scrimmage? smh  ::)

[quote name="deputy20" post="1423619" timestamp="1376332173"] Hey aggies, kountze might have been 2-5 but 3 of those losses were from a combined 9 points and against ec which was a 35-7 loss, kountze put the ball inside the 5 yard line 4 times but had no line to get the extra push to put it in the endzone. [b]Dont know what games you watched last year if any but your making assumptions from a record.[/b] [/quote] To quote recent HOF coach Bill Parcells, "You are what your record says you are." ;)

[quote name="SilsbeeT98" post="1423596" timestamp="1376329602"] Trey Grubbs is good but do you think he will start? Like i said it might be Hardeway,Thomas,Jackson,Elam,Reed that who i think should start [/quote] I honestly cannot see how Thomas will not be in starting lineup.

[quote name="Knoddy1" post="1423606" timestamp="1376330427"] Come Friday night scrimmage with West Orange If we[b] Win the scrimmage [/b]so be it, the main thing Neumann is looking for putting the folks in the positions for the games that do count. He can't get that right [b]if winning a scrimmage [/b]is first priority. [/quote] [size=18pt][b]No one wins scrimmages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/b][/size]

[quote name="BHFAN" post="1423592" timestamp="1376329311"] Not sure about the Bronco's this year, but this Dayton fan seems optimistic [url=[Hidden Content]] [/quote] [size=24pt][b]LMAO!!!!!!![/b][/size]

[quote name="TigerTamer" post="1423532" timestamp="1376319992"] I told you Fran, I dont care where everyone else falls, [b]HJ will be 1 or 2 when the dust settles.[/b] Who does BucNasty pull for????? Is he one of these "humble" Silsbee fans? Thats a guy I would like to have in my fanbase... NOT!!!! [/quote] And if HJ doesn't finish 1st or 2nd in district this season, will it be the coaches fault?

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1423500" timestamp="1376315927"] [quote author=bradyb link=topic=113199.msg1423432#msg1423432 date=1376267957] [quote author=swamp123 link=topic=113199.msg1423370#msg1423370 date=1376243247] Most ridiculous, delusional series of posts I've seen in a long time.  Why you ripping Silsbee bradyb? Saying they treating players like pieces of meat and would get beat by 14U teams wouldn't be something I would think an alum would be doing. [/quote] I'm not talking down on Silsbee. That's in general around here... So many HS coaches use the kids instead of get them prepared for college. And about the 14U teams beating Silsbee, I'm not taking anything away from Silsbee... But I'm honest... There are 14U teams that would compete in our district... It's irrevelant but it's true. [/quote] [b]Is there any chance that you havent been "at this" long enough to honestly know the differences between Silsbee/HJ/WOS compared to 14 year old AAU teams?[/b] [/quote] [b]BINGO!!!![/b]
