picked Ozen last night in an upset on the preview show, and i'll stick with it.  Ozen wins, 46-45.

Think HJ ended up tying HF, and i heard they beat BC 3-0 later in the tourney.

[/quote] So is what you saying is that anyone that put Nederland above HJ is an idiot? [/quote] it just means i strongly disagree with them.  i'm entitled to that opinion.

went today,  and three of us kept 5 specks and 5 sandies after fishing about 3 1/2 hours.  not a great day, but at least we didn't get shut out.  there were a lot of idiots out, and one boat in particular cut us off 3 separate times when we were drift fishing, and also nailed us with a wake twice.  during one stretch where they were way to close, i caught 21, 20, and 19 inch trout in about 10 minutes.  i made sure to play the fish around the side of the boat to make sure they could see them, because they weren't catching crap :)

basketball's a funny game.  Silsbee squeaks by HJ at home, then squeaks by WOS at home, then HJ beats WOS by 30 AT WOS.  i'm looking forward to the big game @ HJ :)

[quote name="bullets13" post="1163138" timestamp="1327067702"] Tigers win 78-43 [/quote] close on the margin, anyway...

[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!

[/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.
