I agree I dont like how they say things about horses these days like "he is a great athlete" or "he was happy to win the kentucky derby"
The horse doesnt know, he is running cause someone is whipping the snot out of him!
I did however start pulling for him to recover.

I never thought I would care about a horse so much.

His name is Bryan Wysong....Dont know any details because I have mainly been covering the girls side of basketball in Orange County
-
Yah we do...Jessica Shores and I were talking about my job today. She is hilarious and was asking if I got paid to go to games and when I was interviewing her. She was making me laugh!
-
You are starting to tell how much I do when around the office. I only get on while at work so what does that say???
-
OF did it a few times back when I first worked at the Leader, man it sure made my job easy! Just a few hours a night and I had two games covered!
-
See, I knew I was in trouble!
Cant get any better of a pick than her! She had a great week last week and is on pace to do it again this one.

Dont tell the people in Port Neches-Groves!! Or Im a dead man

Just got the OK, Im headed to Kirbyville here shortly! Had to pull some strings on this one!

Two things I took from the game tonight:
1. The Jasper coach is a great coach. I sat right next to him on the scorers table and he never quit coaching and ALWAYS complimented the players on a good play and hardly ever talked down to them. Good things will come for Jasper.
2. I always knew this but it really sank in tonight, even though OF may not win every game they are always prepared. There has never been a game I have seen where the Lady Cats are not ready to play or don't show up. That speaks to their hard work and believing in the system put in place. Playing hard 100% of the time goes a long way in producing success and OF is by far on the right track.

It was incredible. Definitely the best I have ever heard and I have been to a ton of games! Good luck with your future, it sounds bright
-
Lets all just hope the weather cooperates with the games on tuesday! only thing I can add from the outside looking in is Kristy Sanders playing in this one. A player of her caliber being on the court can make a world of difference. It will be a good one that is for sure
-
Oh I figure Ill just sit at home and watch something on the Oxygen channel...no big games to cover on tuesday right?
-
Can you guess where Ill be...

Even though Deweyville seemed to have their worst game of their season, LCM looked great.
Daisy could not miss and the rest of the team performed in a great way. Everyone was impressed with sophomore Amber Solieau. She played some great minutes. Good win and hope it brings in a few more.
-
Astros would give up Berkman and Burke for him!!!

Most print media, and some TV, cant cover a whole area the size of southeast Texas. PA wont do much on OF and deweyville while we do..Beaumont cant cover the same schools but we do...we cant cover beaumont and silsbee while those two can do more than we can...its a give or take where you are located...Silsbee is 45 mins from orange...the big news was earl for our readers. i cant imagine (and wont allow myself to imagine) if we would have led the story with the silsbee player and not earl...i wouldnt show up to work the next day...we did bold the player on the list and did the same for the 4a one for a player from BH and ozen...sorry we cant do more, wish we could cover everyone from here to dallas but my brain couldnt keep up

Someone tell Granger, since I didnt get a chance to, that Im glad she is ok. That was scaring looking since it was right in front of me and it was good to see her get back in there.
AND, let me say how nice it was to receive a Christmas card from the lady cats. Always my favorite thing when players say hello and things of that nature. Not too many do it when a reporter is around but they sure do. I say thank you to each one of them and hope their christmas break is a good one (if coach doesnt have them shooting FTs and running too much)
Merry Christmas to both sides from tonights game and to all the fans and coaches. Cya after the break, unless someone gives me a million dollars for a present!

I usually wouldnt defend ourselves on a forum but we are in Orange and did run the list with the Silsbee player in our paper. It was not in the story but did make our pages.
-
They will probably ending up trading him for a backup batboy and three pairs of dirty socks.
Then needing to shore up the leadoff spot, they will trade for Taveras (yes bringing him back) for Berkman and Adam Everett.
I can see it now!
-
Best thing I saw for the Lady Bears was a number of girls contributing. It was a nice win for LCM and might be the start of a few more.
-
I wish I would have known it was tonight and not on Tuesday. I would have liked to seen this one and was looking forward to it. We never got the change in schedule! Now I didnt see it tonight and wont get to see again on Tuesday.

The Brain? Bobby Hennan? If this isnt right, im done

I have NEVER, EVER been a bagwell fan for those playoff shortcomings. I held it against him very harsly, BUT seeing him go for some reason made me realize what he did for the Astros and the city of Houston.
He was a class act and did what a lot of people dont do anymore, stay around with one team for loyalty. Yes Houston paid him well but deep down he stayed because he was an Astro.
This coming from a Bagwell skeptic, he did a lot of good for the team and not all the greats dont win in the playoffs.
