[quote name="bullets13" post="1162912" timestamp="1326998942"] HJ already had their wakeup call with Silsbee.  They should be re-focused now.  I originally thought that this might be a trap game for HJ if they beat Silsbee, but i think now that they have a loss we don't have to worry about them underestimating any opponents for awhile.  I say HJ wins 75-59. [/quote] well, i was half-close :)

[quote name="no-look" post="1163768" timestamp="1327120361"] Didn't expect that kind of margin....good win. [/quote] this guy did ;)

wait... are you the Silsbee BADSANTA, or are you the Newton BADSANTA?  I also heard there's one outside of San Augustine in Bronson...

bwahahahaha.

i'm going hog hunting :)

Tigers win 78-43

I don't think they overlooked Silsbee at all.  I just think that had they beaten Silsbee, they wouldn't even blink at the prospect of playing WOS.  they'd assume that nobody could beat them.  now that they've lost a game, i think it will help refocus them on the fact that they have to come out and play well every game.

you don't have to worry about ME cheating!  if i do bad, i do bad.  i only keep up with about half the teams we're picking.

tearing it up!

HJ and Silsbee would cause Royal problems with their pressure and speed. [/quote]All about the match ups [/quote] so true.  i spanked blue dove at ping pong last month, even though he had a large height advantage on me. [/quote] That's because you had been playing tougher ping pong players than he had before the two of you met. [/quote] absolutely.  plus he kept trying to slam the ball on me, while i was dropping in sweet, mid-range shots.

C'mon guys! You should have put Nash, LAZEEK, &  POPPA in the game. There is just no excuse >:( [/quote] The objective is to keep the fans interested, not to encourage them to leave the gym [/quote] sounds like a Chippendales show, not a HS basketball game...

[quote name="Water Boy 21" post="1162275" timestamp="1326913690"] i think if you pick an upset you should place higher [/quote] nah.  this way works better.  don't need people picking upsets all the time just hoping to get extra points.  this way if you're right you're right, and if you're wrong, you're wrong.

still can't believe a half-court shot on the road against a state-ranked team knocked 27-1 HJ from 1 to 2, and from 9 first place votes to 2 :)

[quote name="bullets13" post="1160449" timestamp="1326608735"] i gotta do more research and spend more time thinking next week... this is what happens when i'm in a hurry and do my pickems in like 2 minutes. [/quote] did the same thing this week.  oh well.

he probably tebowed at half court following the win.

[quote name="Englebert" post="1161574" timestamp="1326828548"] "High school players brutally beaten for showing up other team" won't sell as many papers as the headline "High school players brutally beaten for Tebowing". [/quote] ding ding ding.  we have a winner.

they weren't brutally beaten for Tebowing, they were brutally beaten for rubbing in a win while on the court.  i don't think the kids intended to do so, and i do think the fans overreacted, but nobody likes it when the opposing team shows up their team, even if it's just perceived.  Heck, every time HJ beats Cleveland in the playoffs, Cleveland fans try to fight them in the parking lot, and HJ doesn't even show them up.
