[quote name="PoppaBearstarr" post="1174653" timestamp="1328743806"] If you must know, The game last night against WOS inspired me to start this thread WOSgrad...There is nothing secret about,( NO backdoor cuts) ;D there were several instances that inspired me to start it. You are totally wrong on your assumption though, me thinks the gentleman [b]PRAISES[/b]  just at the right level. I gave KUDOS in the game thread last night to the WOS kids about the future of there basketball team, and I quote; They know how to ball and they do it the right way with respect for each other and there opponents...Many times I saw kids get knocked to the floor and someone was there to help them up, no matter which team they played for....I personally like to see that, Some do not care, I was just curious how everyone else felt about it..This was carried out throughout all three levels of play last night. This threads intention was to bring that out. I'm glad to see a group of coaches that require their players to be good sportsman, whether there winning or losing...you can read what I said on the game thread from last night...I was thinking about it during the broadcast last night, and thought I would give both teams Kudos...And by the way who in the heck is Hamlet Eloquence, & shouldn't his last name be capitalized..  [/quote] Poppabear, I appreciate you answering my question and satisfying my curiosity.

To paraphrase Hamlet: Me thinks the gentleman doth protest a bit too loudly. [/quote] Why were you not concerned about the National Anthem question being a result of a specific incident?  Could that not also have been prompted by a specific incident?  I don't have any Hamlet eloquence to offer but I do remember an old saying that said " Why make a mountain out of a molehill".  It's apparent that you know of an incident which you "believe" is what is behind the question.  If that is the case, is the question he posed any less "innocent" than yours requesting more specifics?  If he, as you believe "knows something he isnt revealing" and you, as I believe" think you know of a specific incident", would it not be better to avoid the acrimony? [/quote] Nash, you lecturing someone on avoiding acrimony is like Warren Buffett telling Bill Gates he has too much money.

Inflammatory?  I just said I was curious. To paraphrase Hamlet: Me thinks the gentleman doth protest a bit too loudly.

Guys! Why get riled up.  I just said I was curious.

As most questions about general propositions like this here are prompted by specific events, I am curious as to what recent specific event prompted this question about a general proposition.

I did a few minutes ago.

[/quote] He was let go because the "numbers" in the program were not high enough.  Sup wanted numbers like Cameran You and Tatum.  Coach Langston was making the Trinity kids act right so he ran some off. Thats the way I heard it. [/quote] Im not sure if this job will be filled from the outside or inside, but my point is this there are people who have come on this board as of late protesting that Langston is the best guy for the community and the best role model for the kids of WB and there are numerous article's and proof of suspension and firings from cheating.  There are literally 10+ articles on google, yahoo, MSN, etc about multiple violations after he served a two game suspension for similar violations.  He then got fired in less than a semester from a 2A head job at Trinity.  There were also similar blogs that took place just before he got hired at Trinity that read "I can't believe a Superintendent and Board would hire a guy that had so many documented incidents against him to lead young people.  I have heard this is why he did not even get an interview last spring when he applied for the East Chambers job.  That just does not seem to be the same guy who some people are making him out to be on this site!

[quote name="incognito123" post="1173891" timestamp="1328667796"] I've been saying since the beginning, Joe Allen Slack is their guy.  All the interviews are just a formality.  [/quote] I think we can hold off on naming a particular candidate, especially Coach Slack, until we hear further word for a couple of reasons.  First, my understanding is that Coach Slack currently has a job.  Second, none of us have seen the list of applicants to the Hardin job so, hearsay aside, we have no idea if he even applied.

One bidistrict 4A has already been set according to Jared Ainsworth of the Enterprise: Vidor vs. Dayton, 6:00 p.m., Monday, 2/13 at Hardin-Jefferson

[quote name="purpleeagle" post="1174225" timestamp="1328711208"] Reading the realignment protest forms, I see they are due to UIL by Feb. 12. I would presume it will be sometime after that date before district schedules are decided. Does anyone know if UIL does the finalizing of district schedules? [/quote] No, the scheduling is done and confirmed completely at the district level.  What generally happens is that after a realignment, all of the coaches in a particular district (21-3A I know has already done theirs and I would suspect most of the other districts have done so as well) get together and determine the district schedule for the next two years.  This is generally done by chance.  One established way is that the coach/AD/school official picks a number that corresponds to a number of charts like these (the following was supplied by the UIL to the coaches): [img][Hidden Content]] That determines their district schedule.

I hope in the future that they will be kind and allow other streaming sites to be posted on threads for people to watch. [/quote] Let me ask you this, do you allow a competitor to come in to your work place and advertise their goods or services? [/quote] The other site is the schools website... Not a competitor IMOHO.. It is just the school that does not have advertising on there website... Besides couldn't the school say no to the broadcast instead of them being so accommodating... All this is just my opinion but it doesn't seem fair if there are no sponsors or for a broadcast... Isn't the purpose of the this site to give more access to local sports...no one is getting paid through the video streams from the schools website....I do agree not to put a true competitor as a link or a stream from another sports website... And don't worry I'm self reporting my comments to a moderator hopefully someone can explain this to me... [/quote] I'll let your broadcast partner explain it to you.
