  1. Just because you play select baseball does not make you a baseball player. Anyone can play select, the academys are full of kids that have average skills but big dreams. This does give parents the impression or illusion their child is better than they are. I agree. But for the parents that recognize the skill set and encourage their youngster to do better they are not the problem, They are a asset. Most all parents that have a kid that is interested in playing at the next level have done their homework and know what it takes to play for instance you better run a 7.0 60 or less 6.7 for major D1 RH pitcher 88-90 infield 88+ outfield 90+ Hitters must have above average power. Not all baseball players or equal. Everything listed above has to be worked on from a early age. You cant just say I am 16 years old and I will work on throwing 90 now. To late should have started when you first picked up a glove.
  2. You think they don't. and yes it happens even in Silsbee.
  3. JV check the rosters on ALL varsity teams. Jasper, Bridge City, Hudson, Evadale, Woodville ETC. Big Sandy ALL rosters Starting positions are filled with select players that have had professional lessons to make these kids the best. The Benches are filled with kids that were not fortunate enough to get the instruction they needed. Some parents are more helpful than others. TRY asking any of the coaches if any of their teams would be as successful as they are without the parents. All kids matter but some work harder than others and some have more resourses spent on them than others. and this is the reason 1 child out performs another.
  4. The parents in woodville do not tell the coaches how to coach never have. As I stated very supportive of the former coaches. This group is very young they have a chance to make a run at state in a couple years don't ruin it is all thes parents are saying maybe coach Wilroy or mixon will take over
  5. TRY coaching where nobody cares, Try coaching where there is no money, Try making something out of nothing. Without the support of parents and the community there is nothing but a dead end coach with a .500 record if he is lucky and nothing to show for it.
  6. There is no program without the parents .
  7. as usual someone always misses the point. It takes everyone to have a successful athletic program. why let 1 person be a hard a and ruin something that many parents and kids have worked for since they were 4 yrs old. yes there are some that have spent more time money and energy in their children than others, they should have more say so than little johnnys parents that have done nothing. are you a giver or a Taker. These parents have given more than their fair share. The coaches would have nothing if not for the encouragement of the parents and for their children to work for something and be the best.
  8. What ever the case the parents have invested to much time an money to see baseball go belly up. Hearing from some that they will no longer play football and some will transfer or move.things are heating up.
  9. Sounds like baseball is not a priority any more. Hope this is not the case.
  10. I thought everyone was happy with the new coach. Did this have anything to do with athletic coordinator forcing baseball team to do a heavy weight lifting work out before games.this looks reall bad. Feel bad for the kids.
  11. The only reason to apply for this job is for the AD title, If this title is not given to the head coach. The job should be posted in the peddler because the coaches will be as good there as anywhere.
  12. wait til next year johnny will be in the drivers seat from the beginning, and coaches will be partying with him.
  13. Did anybody notice cincy looked like they knew what cleveland was going to do before they did it, and manziel only attempted 18 passes. were the reins being held back on manziel.maybe cleveland coaching isnt ready for the show yet.
  14. This will be a great game to watch. JFF will be able to show case his talent and his swagger. I hear they are selling standing room only tickets. Haters will jump from the roof tops. 
  15. Johnny Boy will begin his career next week. No Way they start Hoyer any more. Probably shopping for trades now. Probably Houston! 
  16. Johnnys game will speak for its self, and the Texans decision making has already spoken for its self. JJ Watt and A Johnson both deserve better. 
  17. Texans need to be sold. #1 pick is reported to be out for the season, to have knee surgery. Idiots are running the Texans orginazation, and I am a Houston fan. How I miss the Oilers.
  18. The one that shall not be named will start the next game and he will do well. This kid is a winner. You have to be taught how to win, He will teach Cleveland how to win, and his swagger will push some over the edge. I will enjoy watching both. 
  19. Texans are after the #1 pick in the draft this year. They heard there was a once in a generation DE coming out of the New England area.
  20. Now the Texans are trying to trade for Ryan Mallett in New England . maybe A J can go to a winning Home. Hell everyone in Houston wants to leave now. 
  21. Yes it is the NFL, but a bad product and people that you never heard of wont put fans in the stands. Another loosing season with outsiders running the show will run off the remaining fans that are left in Houston. You don't need help to be bad by yourself.
