[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1008293" timestamp="1305026785"] OKC won in triple overtime to tie the series at 2.  Sounds like I missed a good one,  guess I should have stayed awake. [/quote] might have been the best nba game i've ever watched... full of young players who still play with a lot of heart and scrappiness.  memphis came back from 10 down in the last 3 or 4 minutes to hit a 3 with a couple of seconds left to force OT, then from 7 down in OT to force a second.  it was a heck of a game!

we'll see... my partner has home court advantage :)

as of right now trece balas and partner.  if anything changes, it will be soon enough that i'll let you guys know well before the tourney.

The Mavericks look amazing!  Today they are 18 for 29 from 3-point land.  WOW.

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1007809" timestamp="1304890661"] Odem and Bynum ejected.  The Lakers are playing dirty now.  Bynum should be hit with a huge fine.  He could have really hurt someone. [/quote] if you're going to lose, lose with class :)

The Mavs have been fantastic!!!

[quote name="Ty Cobb" post="1005599" timestamp="1304524737"] Yes, another reliever would help this team dramatically.  Hopefully Feliz can come back and add a little spark.  [b]Offense is down at this time, except for Michael Young, who is killing the ball. [/b]  Hopefully those bats will get hot for the summer!!! [/quote] Yup, Nelly is slumping badly, Kinsler hasn't been good since the first week of the season, and Beltre has been very streaky.  Murphy's been pretty good, and Moreland has been a very pleasant surprise, but with 3 of the 4 major power hitters slumping and the other on the DL, the rangers are having trouble, which is no surprise when you're looking to Andrus, Borbon, and Torrealba for offense.

Are bad right now.  the offense is tame, and the bullpen is AWFUL.  they've continued to get good starting pitching, but with them scoring only a couple of runs a game, and the bullpen giving up at least 1-2 runs a game, they don't have a chance right now.  they BADLY need Hamilton back, but even more so they need Feliz back.  Since their 9-1 start they're something like 5-12, and the bullpen just blew two more leads in the same game, so unless they rally in the 9th they're going to lose another one.

[quote name="liltex" post="1003953" timestamp="1304131924"] Fished rollover yesterday and a few nice reds and blk.drum were landed in the evening and a few trout after dark until the tide changed to high and the water cleared @ 11:00 pm then fishing got alot better as the wee hrs before daylight I prolly caught 50 trout retaining a limit of 10 specks to 4 lbs.add in about 20 nice sand trout.I fished w/glow plastics under 2-1,000 watt stage lights and my 3 friends from Baytown limited out on specks w/a cpl.nice reds fishing the edges of my lights.It was a tuff drive home yawning @ 6:30 this morning and we left them biting.Surf was not flat but wadeable w/sandy green water. [/quote] which side were ya'll fishing?  we never catch anything out there.

I'd say Rayburn or toledo bend, unless ya'll wanna mix it up and do salt water...

[/quote] My guess is that you just weren't too impressed with his fishing skills.       ;D [/quote] I wasn't too impressed with MY fishing skills that day.  I've been out with him a few times, though, and we always have a good time.  I just don't have a boat, but I do have someone else who can go, so i figured he could bring someone like me from the site who does not have a boat (TVC, for example), and I could bring in an extra boat for a tourney. 

i fished the last tourney with hippy, but i have another buddy i can fish with to get an extra boat in the water for the next tourney.

yup.  that hurts.

that's a lot of posts.

[/quote] I might go check the docks tonight and see if anything is moving. Still might be a bit early yet. [/quote] nothing moving last night.

rangers lost both games in the bottom of the 9th after going in tied.  they missed lots of chances to score over the last couple of games, and the bullpen looked shaky in both.  that being said, they were facing a pretty dang good team, and they're still 9-3.

well, see you in about 8 months, ff.  congrats to your girls on another very good season.

an option to consider would be having a early season tourney taking the regional finalists from all regions in 4A and 5A the previous year.  of course, the team makeups would be somewhat different than they were the year before when those teams made it that far, but you can bet that you're still going to end up with most of the best teams in the state.

I expect Selby to leave also [/quote] Selby might better stay another year.  he was pretty bad this year.

[quote name="GoPirates" post="993905" timestamp="1302110628"] Is the fishing under the lights at the ft. Anahuac park pier any good? [/quote] I  can't speak for Anahuac, but last weekend the fish weren't really active under the lights yet on the intercoastal canal.

[quote name="LumRaiderFan" post="992512" timestamp="1301888801"] I think this is the best line-up (or rotation that can handle any line-up) in the MLB...if they stay healthy! Roy Halladay Cliff Lee Roy Oswalt Cole Hamels [/quote] IMO that's probably the best 4-starter rotation in the history of baseball.  Halladay and Lee would both be the ace on any other team in the league, and Hamels and Oswalt would be the ace on at least half of the teams in the league.

7-3, final.  rangers complete their second consecutive sweep to start the season!

6-0!

Rangers facing King Felix today... gotta absolutely LOVE kinsler working a 10-pitch walk to lead off the game :)
