Makes me think that the broadcast was a good one. Thanks for listening. See you Monday? [/quote] might make it, not sure yet.

:)

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.

I listened to most of the game last night, but i was on my iphone and didn't feel like making a long drawn-out post, and i've been at the deer lease all day, so... 1. congrats to silsbee on a great win.  while i picked HJ to win, i'm not surprised at all that Silsbee was able to pull this one off at home. 2. congrats to the hawks on a great comeback.  to be down that much with just a minute or so left in the 3rd and to be able to come back and tie it is MUCH more shocking than the fact that Silsbee won. 3. HJ's poor freethrow shooting was the biggest factor in this result.  Yes, Silsbee deserves a lot of credit for their performance, but if HJ shoots a mere 50% from the line they win.  4. While Silsbee's game winning shot was very lucky, the fact that they were in position to make a lucky game winning shot was not luck at all.  They have a very good team, and they're even better at their home gym. 5. While i never want HJ to lose to Silsbee, i think in the long run this loss will likely be more valuable to the hawks than a win would have been.  A team that faces very little adversity through the season is set up for a letdown once they get deep into the playoffs. 6. I still think HJ is the better team, but the best team doesn't always win... and Friday night Silsbee WAS the best team, but barely. 7. These two teams are the best two teams in the region, and i fully expect one of them to representing SETX at state in a couple of months. 8. I believe that Silsbee's strength of schedule helped prepare them for this game, but HJ's perceived lack of strength of schedule did not have a major impact in their play in this game.  HJ has played some really solid teams, but they beat them badly, which leads people to believe that their schedule has been weak. 9.  The Silsbee/HJ games are among the top local sporting events we have in the area every year. 10. I expect HJ to beat Silsbee by 10-15 points at HJ.  HJ will shoot better at home, and they'll still have their height advantage and the speed to match up with the Tigers.

crazy... good game, tigers.  HJ won't beat themselves again.

Not a bad start for the hawks

Wish I was there

[/quote] Not sure, he may have already had four but he will have none tonite.  Why?  Because I told him that Soulja thinks dunks are over rated and that he has no business trying to hype the crowd. [/quote] HJ might be in trouble tonight because Prudhomme will be passing up dunks to make sweet mid-range jumpers and two-handed chest passes.

[quote name="stevenash" post="1159190" timestamp="1326479517"] [quote author=2-2-1 link=topic=94180.msg1159178#msg1159178 date=1326478438] To be quite honest I can't wait for this game to be over with. This forum is becoming nothing but HJ and Silsbee, and it's getting rather annoying. I can't wait to see the game but I'll be glad when it's over too. [/quote] [b]Have you given any thought to simply not reading the posts that involve Silsbee and HJ?  What are you going to do when they meet for the second time at the end of the month?[/b][/quote] was going to make this point, plus the point that the 2-3 Silsbee/HJ games and the HJ/Silsbee rivalry bring as much traffic to the basketball forum each day in the week leading up to their games as most local programs bring to the forum in the entire season.  if you want to talk about something else, start a topic about something else.  and if nobody replies, you can come back and read this thread some more.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1158784" timestamp="1326405646"] HJ supporters, you do realize when you lose your first game it will be front page/ headline news in the Sour Lake News! [/quote] If HJ sweeps silsbee in district, they'll probably have to end the season undefeated if they want to win state.

a little more politically correct. also: 8. arrive two hours before the freshman game to make sure you get a seat.  9. avoid "accidently" taking any food that belongs to someone wearing an SETXsports shirt.  If you do, you might lose a hand.

i just merged them all.  there were like 6 different ones made in the last two days.  i merged one i made as well.  i also changed the title of the thread to the Tim Tebow thread, instead of leaving it as "Tim Tebow is Useless"

i got the same camera for christmas.  they take dang good pictures.

Evadale.

When Silsbee comes to sour lake i'll treat everyone to some Lucky Donuts.

sweet!

i shot a hog during bow season, and a doe and a hog during gun season.  saw a couple of nice bucks, but couldn't get a shot off.  making one last ditch effort at my buddy's lease with black powder saturday morning.

HJ fans might also want to get their vaccinations updated before they head out that way.

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="1158195" timestamp="1326315114"] Even if HJ loses Friday are they still the unanimous #1 in the dirty dozen? [/quote] i'd have to vote for them still.  there are teams throughout the DD in both big and small school who are ranked higher than teams that have beaten them at some point.  27-1 or whatever it would be, as well as convincing wins against central and nederland, among others, would be enough for me.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1158155" timestamp="1326312352"] Can I get a shout out! [/quote] more likely a shout at.

[quote name="Water Boy 21" post="1158133" timestamp="1326310604"] [quote author=bbfan1955 link=topic=94090.msg1157992#msg1157992 date=1326298821] I Have Seen Both Teams And There Is No Way Silsbee Can Win This Game Unless Both Of HJ Big Men Foul Out In The First Quarter HJ Take This One By Atleast 20 And More If They Want To [/quote]yes the big men inside are good but i see them making much of a difference in this one, they wasnt much of a factor when they played evadale..... i see HJ in foul trouble early in the game [/quote] Evadale wasn't much of a factor in the Evadale game.  When HJ is having their way with the press, and giving the subs heavy playing time, the bigs are going to be that important.  against silsbee, who's speed is going to enable them to do okay against the HJ press, the bigs will come into play on the boards when silsbee is running their halfcourt set, and also on offense when they're posted up on guys notably shorter than them.

giving some thought to making an appearance.

This year, HJ has to be the favorite in both matchups.  they have the size advantage, and they are as quick or very close to as quick as silsbee.  that being said, just as in every year, the favorite usually loses a game in this series.  i'd love to see HJ take both this year, but i won't be surprised if Silsbee beats them at least once.
