[/quote] You PRAY they stay where they are right now... ;D...all indications point to Yates being 3A next year...Unless some decision is made between now and next week, its appears to be the case.

No one pulls against Nederland....its the fans on here that feel Nederland is ready for primetime after 20 minutes of winning a few district games!!  :D....yes, not YEARS of consistent winning seasons, but about 20 MINUTES of winning a few district ball games!!  8)

I used 180 on Nederland and NB-Dawg yesterday! :D

Yep...pipeline....  8)

Now we are paired against Wheatly and Yates!!!! Who the heck else from around here can beat those teams? Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!! I love it!!!!! Keep squirming. Next up, the Rockets!!!!! [/quote] Oh boy.. ::)....wanna bet that the "amazing district streak" ends at Central or Ozen? ;) [/quote] I already accepted one bet that you offered but you never responded.  You name the stipulations of this bet and I will respond immediately. [/quote] OK, stevenash, no problem...What about Yates? I mean, is it whoever gets them first, or what? I need some parameters here... ;)

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1166974" timestamp="1327697330"] Average teams will not beat Yates. [/quote] C-O-R-R-E-C-T!!! ;)

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1166965" timestamp="1327696636"] No way playa! HISD will filter kids in just to get the numbers. [/quote] Whats with the playa reference? Have you been watching some hip hop documentary on VH1 or something?  :o....From what I hear, its gonna happen...Guess we will find out on Feb. 2nd! ;)

Don't know if they will win it all, but I DO know this....No one in 20-4A can or will come within 30 points of them....27 game district win streaks and all.... ::) ::)...(stirring the pot) ;D

Yates IS very LIKELY to be dropping to 3A....scary! :o

ESPECIALLY those two.... ;)...playa... 8)

No problem...However we were discussing Yates this morning..thought it was fitting.. 8)

Nederland fans......you SURE you want any of that? :D

[quote name="baddog" post="1166879" timestamp="1327688791"] You misunderstand as usual. The Rockets would be the next team someone pulls out of their hip pocket to beat us. Hey, if and when we lose, we lose. I didn't think district games were important enough to bet on. [/quote] If I misunderstood, please pardon me...Be proud of your team...you should be! ;)

[quote name="east texas bb" post="1166861" timestamp="1327686945"] Well the only thing left for you Dicky is to run for President or win an NBA title.  I didnt know we were blessed with the opportunity to listen to such a great basketball mind, us mere "untouchables".  [/quote] Oh no, not the case at all...Just trying to inform Mr. Nash that name dropping does not impress me in the least..I have been around the best of the best as well...all of my life...My initial point was about WHO a person could learn something from...The answer is any person that has true wisdom and/or experiences to offer...any person. That is all.. ;)

[quote name="stevenash" post="1166850" timestamp="1327685756"] No doubt about that.  With all due respect sir, I am suggesting that the "wisdom" that you offered is already possessed by said individual. However, if Coach K (with whom said individual spent several days in the recent past) offers some advice, I am confident he would take every advantage of it. [/quote] Here we go with the name dropping... ::) ::)...I have had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with him on several occasions myself...since you brought it up..Dean Smith as well...You must remember I have had the pleasure of coaching sought after "talent" as you guys like to put it, and so has my dad...met a lot of these coaches when I was a mere kid, and most of them remembered me too when I saw them again as a coach...With that said, a GREAT coach, and great PEOPLE has the ability and the humbleness to learn from ANYONE with wisdom to offer...No matter how big or small you may THINK it is.

Yesterday, Ozen had no talent but, were straight up "coached" to the state tournament on a regular basis. Which is it? [/quote] If you were not always trying to plug holes, you may learn something....Its not earth shattering for a team to have more talent than Nederland...The team in 2007 that WON REGION 3 AND PLAYED FOR THE STATE TITLE, was on the same level TALENT WISE as this team in 2012 at Ozen...So yes...Ozen was well coached in the past and ALWAYS HAD MORE TALENT than Nederland. [/quote] You can be very soundly assured that you have nothing to teach the individual to whom  you addressed that comment. [/quote] Thats where you're dead wrong..the GREATEST of coaches and individuals SEEK out opportunity to learn something new, daily.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1166842" timestamp="1327685305"] Wise stays within the rules. Yes, he gets kids transferring to his school from other districts and they play JV if they have not met the residency rules. [/quote] Contrary to popular belief, yes he does....

OK, we will let THAT be the reason... ::) ::)...talent.... ::)

Believe me, AAW, the HISD brass in athletics DO NOT TOLERATE any shady business...If they can PROVE it, they had better do so over there...Dave Hudek, who used to be the Bellaire basketball coach years ago, DESPISES cheating...always did..He is in that position in HISD, and trust when I tell you, HE AINT PLAYIN! :D

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1166816" timestamp="1327683719"] "Nederland cannot beat Yates or Wheatley". DV, you state that like it is something very profound. [/quote] See AAW, you and I are RIGHT HERE!!! ;D...Though its not profound, I would bank on its accuracy! ;)

WOW!! Wait until my dad hears THIS one!! ;D...That could not be FURTHER from the truth!! People in HISD will turn you in faster than a UIL Representative!!! LOL...Now I will say this...in past years, there were the untouchables in HISD...For example, when Jackie Carr was at Wheatley, NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK, you better not say it against Wheatley...But truth be told, the old man, Coach Carr, was not doing any dirt anyway...he didn't believe in it...There only issues then was kids being declared ineleigible due to being held back a grade in jr. high due to special education requirements, then turning 19 during the season...there were some like that at Wheatley back in the day, that were NOT TOUCHED...Other than THAT...HECK NO!!  8)...My dad may fall out of his chair laughing when I share this!!  ;D
