Big Sandy Dallardsville and Pineland West Sabine will play at 6:30 Friday in Kirbyville and 12:00 noon Saturday in Kirbyville (if necessary, 30 minutes after game 2).

WS 19-3 winner over Chireno. With Broaddus' win over Brookeland tonight and West Sabine's win over Chireno, the district has its first two playoff representatives, respectively. Colmesneil, Brookeland and Chester are all vying for that final spot.

Broaddus defeated Brookeland...not exactly sure of score.

Play this evening (Friday). Major playoff implications.

Zavalla defeated Colmesneil 9-7.

[quote name="DesertStorm" post="1000360" timestamp="1303324001"] Probably because the game was scheduled with both school being out of school on good friday, but lost the day off due to bad weather. Because they played on monday or tuesday they cannot play on thursday. UIL only allows 1 game during the week. [/quote] BINGO!! We have a winner! That is exactly what happened. Chireno had to make up a weather day on Good Friday.

Game had to be moved because of UIL rule about playing one day between Monday and Friday. No choice...it was the next available date. Coaches concurred. Probably not what anyone really wanted, but the UIL makes the decision a no brainer.

[quote name="bulldogs1990" post="998910" timestamp="1303094437"] look im talking baseball ok not football im not a fan of either team i was in town an came to the game cause i saw lights. u can say what u want i didnt say the calls won the game for pineland im just saying it was very one sided both teams or either young or need new coaches both was very sloppy but the calls was one sided if i was coach both teams would still be running jmo [/quote] Bulldogs...bad coaching...bad umps...everything I said sailed right over your head. Oh well, I tried.

My final thoughts on this matter: flash...the groveton game did not get decided by the officials...nor did they have any outcome on the game. Had the Tigers' defense stopped anyone that particular evening, the game could have been won by three to four touchdowns. I believe the final was 41-38. Everyone notices the officials in a tight contest more than they do in a blow out...that's part of the drama. It's all in the perspective...if you go into a game looking for an excuse for losing, you can always find one. If you go into a game saying officials are going to blow several calls today and the team has to overcome all obstacles, then you are prepared to win or lose with grace and dignity--no blame game. This topic is nothing more than a microcosm of what is happening in society today...people increasingly want to point their finger somewhere else when things don't go in their favor. I, for one, will not be party to such, and I only wish more parents, coaches and players would adhere to the same philosophy so that our kids would grow up understanding that life is about personal responsibilities. Again, sports is a great avenue for playing out life's lessons on the court or field. Let's all do our part to help make a difference by reclaiming the idea of personal responsibility and quit making excuses when something wrinkles our covers. I'm through...thanks to this forum for allowing me to express my opinion. Again, best wishes to all in the district.

I'm sorry you feel that way; however, the officiating had nothing to do with the outcome of the game. When players, fans and coaches allow the officiating in any sport to be used as an excuse for a loss, then I believe they have totally missed the bigger picture in dealing with athletics. Everyone should understand that for every mistake that the officials make, the participants in the contest probably made three times that many. Ideally, we would like every call to be made correctly every time...that is never goning to happen as long as there is a human element tied to officiating contests. That, to me, is what makes the games so incredibly entertaining and true-to-life. Remember, we all get some wrong in everything we do on a day-to-day basis. Best wishes to all in the district.

Broaddus 18-2 winner.

[/quote] If a runner scores on a wild pitch would that be earned then or an error assesed then? [/quote] If the runner got on base without an error, it's a earned run. WP to pitcher. [/quote] Unless there was an error made with 2 outs. Then it would be a unearned run. [/quote] What if it was a WP/PB on a K with 2 outs, should have been the third out, still no error considered and earned run? Hard to believe it would be considered earned. [/quote] Earned run if it was a WP...unearned on PB because he would not have reached base otherwise. Passed ball is similar to an error in this case. Hope that makes it clear as mud.
