I think some of you that are replying should READ THE THREAD BEFORE REPLYING...I NEVER mentioned ANYONE by name, first of all, secondly, the question was asked if a poster was related to me and I confirmed it...You people on here have such a MOB mentality...Just read the dang thread... :o

[quote name="understand" post="1374204" timestamp="1360866482"] Central will Dominate and for the record Central 99' team did not loss to Ozen Central when down when DV & Ozen finest family coached Central and DV brags on BOUTTE but what has he won without BOUTTE and when you say your family will win more remember BOUTTE is not coaching anymore and he is ex-family [/quote] I never said his name YOU did, and besides, I think PERSONAL business should not be posted on here, AggiesAreWe am I correct? I was only joking about coaching royalty, honestly, but I have a Hall of Fame father as a retired coach with 983 victories, since you are wanting to keep score, that also happens to be one of the mentors to him, which is STILL my family, by the way, whoever you are...I have done well in my own right and have enjoyed success, but its haters like you that keep me going strong...Keep up the good work...hater.

By the way....Ozensfinest IS related to me!!

Uhhh, NO....Next question.. ::)

If I could catch a flight outta here tonight and get there I WOULD!! Central wins this one to end "District 20-4A TIE GATE"!!! NO MORE CO-CHAMPS!! Win it all, or not at all!!  8)

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1372707" timestamp="1360626865"] Reminds me of the ole Jackie Carr quote: "I'll take a bad shot over a good pass any day."  ;) ;D [/quote] ;D ;D 8)

Its not that Central beats you with their shooting or creating their own shots, Central gets to the boards and get 2nd/3rd shots back up on the offensive end. [/quote] True. I was not impressed with Centrals outside shooting or penetration last game. What killed us was the fact we got 1 shot, while Central got 2nd and 3rd chances all night long. We have to position and block out better this time. [/quote] Reminds me of an old story carried throughout the generations: The bigs complained  to their young coach about the guards & wings shooting too much. The wise young coach told them, "get the(offensive)rebounds and put it back up....."  The moral of this story?  Sometimes we make life harder than it has to be AND don't play for coaches who shot the ball a lot  :D [/quote] I happen to know your old coach, Bluedove, and he wasn't anywhere NEAR the shooter that his SON was/is!!! ;D ;D ;D....Heck, your coach's brother Sam was another one that never saw a shot he didn't like!!  ;D ;D

[quote name="usedtobe" post="1372698" timestamp="1360625483"] [quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=109177.msg1372692#msg1372692 date=1360624718] Kind of surprised that they would just cancel the game and not try to find another facility. But I was more surprised they chose HBU facility to begin with. Yates needs to come over here and play. Could play game at Ford Arena. [/quote] What do you want to bet that Yates already has another game lined up at some facility in Houston?  How do you get to this point and not have Houston Baptist on board for the date and event?  This is some of that inner-city BS!  Let's hear it DickieV - I know you will have an excuse for Yates. :( [/quote] First of all, from what I understand, cancelling the game had NOTHING to do with Yates...The connection between Yates and HBU is that Yates HC Greg Wise is a former player and HBU Alum...Honestly the "powers to be" at HBU, were concerned about space, security and the headache of having to turn people away...Has NOTHING to do with "inner city BS".... ::) ::)....I think Yates may play Travis, Marshall or Bush, from what I hear....Nothing confirmed, thats just the direction I hear they are going to go. 

Therefore, as it is with Nederland, congrats on beating Silsbee's JV....good job.. ;)

[/quote] I think you have to include Johnson, even though he is not on the team currently. [/quote] Bottom line is HJ returns 3 starters from last nights game and if Johnson had played, it would still be 3 starters returning [/quote] Correct. But we both know there is quite a difference in Johnson and Stevens. [/quote] Doesnt matter- neither Johnson or Stevens is returning and Stevens was a starter only in Johnsons absence-  I was referring to the fact that HJ returns three starters from this years team.  Mitchell, Mayes, and Zjori Bosha. [/quote] Talking about NEXT season already? HJ can still make a playoff run this year....somewhat...Until....well you know... ::) ::) ;D 8)

[quote name="Honest Abe" post="1371977" timestamp="1360423472"] I realize you are usually always right (not sure what that means ;D ) but didn't you say last year that district 20-4A was the weakest in the state? Same silly predictions/comments, different year. ::) BTW-We already beat Silsbee twice this year including once at their house. 8) [/quote] Must have been during or right after football season....Congrats on beating Silsbee's JV team in preseason... ::) ::) ;D

PLEASE!! No more CO-District Champion banners!! Pulling for Central for the first time EVER!!  8)

Three way tie.... ::) ::) ::)....in THAT district? Yates would SWEEP that district and they are 3A!!!  8) 8)..Silsbee could win it too and Kountze could be the second or third place team in 20-4A!!!....Central and Ozen should be ashamed of themselves!!!  Boy, I am really stirring that pot this morning!! ;D ;D ;D  (I am only kidding, guys....kinda  ::))

Tigers have now claimed an out right or co-district championship for 6 straight seasons. (co-champs '08, '09, '12, out right '10, '11, '13) [/quote] Impressive numbers.... ;).....So you guys are now in the Yates bracket, possibly setting up a 2nd round meeting?

4 of the last 5 games....right? 10 of the last 13? Just asking what the count is....

I just don't think that game is the same anymore....Its becoming one sided, and the atmosphere has become mediocre....I still think as an admin, I would just take that headache, and have the games on campus next season... ;)

Whats that for Silsbee? 4 out of the last 5? Looks like the tide has turned in that district... 8)

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1371589" timestamp="1360349589"] Not much to talk about.  Silsbee is the overwhelming favorite. [/quote] As well they should be. They have pretty much dominated this series over the past 5 years.
