there's been a lot of self-promotion from this year's goalie class, i'll say that much  ;D

[quote name="A Bear's Bear" post="967409" timestamp="1297904450"] Wow!  A 2-0 win against the Silsbee jugarnaut?  So this makes Liberty the Texas 4A team to beat then, correct? [/quote] ;D

HJ won this one 4-0.

[quote name="ABSENT!" post="967189" timestamp="1297881852"] I am a Texas fan but the rankings are all wrong. It should be Ohio state Pitt Texas We still have a bad lose (USC). Pitt and OSU don't have any bad loses. [/quote] I'd say Pitt's loss at home to Tennessee (now 15-10), is no "better a loss" than Texas' loss @ USC (now 13-12).  Still, i don't have a real problem with Texas and Pitt being 1,2, or 3 in any order.  as far as i'm concerned, they're the two best teams in the country.  Texas has some big wins: Illinois, UNC, Mich. St., Kansas, Mizzou, aTm X 2, as well as two very "good" losses, to Pitt by 2 and UCONN by 1 in OT. Pitt has some big wins as well: Texas, UCONN, G-town, Syracuse, and Nova.  I'd say overall these two teams have done very well against very difficult schedules.

[quote name="dawg13" post="967284" timestamp="1297888283"] not saying that it's  ok but it happens,prudome seems to be kinda  hot tempered and i understand that. but what did he prove by retaliating. some things you have to let go and he did not.the refs let things go both ways and they decided that was the last straw and he got tossed. :'( :'( :'( :'( ;D [/quote] as far as i've seen and heard (i wasn't able to see/hear a few of the early tourney games), the only team Prudhomme has had any "temper" problems with has been HF.  Maybe he doesn't like beef.  

I work with an HJ player's mom, and apparently HJ started the game with only 9 players, and had a 10th show up at halftime.  I'm sure Jasper still would've won, but the score would've been a lot more respectable had HJ had a full team. 

I sent Liverpool#1 a message letting him know that he needed our owner's permission before he could advertise on the site.  I let him know that it was nothing personal, simply the site rules, and that if he got permission i'd be happy to reinstate his advertisement in the soccer thread.  He responded with the following: "Nothing pesonal, but F___ yourself and die".  The only reason that I'm sharing this with you guys is that he did have his advertisement up in the forum for a little while, and anyone who is considering using him for training might want to know exactly what kind of guy he is before they let him work with their kids.  So, even if you don't know who he is, if you get the chance to get training for your kid from a "23-year-old son of a local soccer coach" who has "college experience", you might reconsider.  Hey, what do you know, this guy got some free advertisement after all!

[quote name="stevenash" post="967193" timestamp="1297882490"] [quote author=dawg13 link=topic=80242.msg967186#msg967186 date=1297881580] QUIT crying lazeek,yall won the game.so whats your point,im glad to see that referees did'nt bow down to Sutherland for once.  if they both did stuff he got caught and got punished,so what. :'( [/quote] as long as HF isn't punished, it's all good, even if HF starts it, right?  This kid (if what Lazeek is saying is true) is lucky he didn't get knocked upside the head for his trouble. 

He wants 10 years, 300 million.  what a joke!  He'll be worth his salary for maybe 5 more years, overpaid for 2-3 after that, and a complete waste of money the last couple of years of his deal (if he gets it)

there have been some crazy scorelines lately.

[quote name="WOSgrad" post="966782" timestamp="1297822984"] With 6:12 left in the second quarter, Hamshire-Fannett and Hardin-Jefferson are tied at 24. [/quote] wow.

[quote name="utfan06" post="965767" timestamp="1297686021"] Everyone on espn thinks texas should be #1 [/quote] Kansas gets 14 1st place votes, Texas gets 13 :)

Texas 2nd by just one vote!  It's just a number, though.

[quote name="baddog" post="965472" timestamp="1297560425"] [quote author=Scooter! link=topic=80204.msg965425#msg965425 date=1297552695] Texas wins by 9. we beat Kansas already, UT should be #1 [/quote] They had Kansas ranked ahead of Texas even right after we beat them. I think it was because of who they had beaten compared to who we played.....a SOS type deal. I believe they said that OSU hasn't beaten Wisconsin in 6 years. Texas finally beats Baylor in 5 tries. [/quote] Texas has better wins than KU. that being said, Texas has 3 losses, and KU has only one, even though their loss was to Texas.  If Texas hadn't lost at USC they'd be #1 right now.  their other two losses were by two points each to two great teams, UCONN and Pitt.

Gary Johnson stuck up for JB, said he was the most unselfish player on the team.  Now, that might be an overstatement, as i see him get a little snippity at times, but i do admire JB for coming off the bench when he'd be starting for probably 99% of the teams in america.

it doesn't make sense to me.  freethrows are easy.  I quit playing basketball in the 9th grade, and my senior year i got drawn to go out at halftime to shoot freethrows to win a cookie cake.  i made 4 straight and won the cake, and it had been literally 3 years since i'd taken one.  now don't get me wrong, i was surprised i made 4 in a row in that situation, but the point is that even after all that time it wasn't hard for me to find a soft touch and a decent arc.  i don't understand how guys who can make half of their contested jump shots are only making half of their uncontested, untimed freethrows, even after shooting probably 1000 or more of them in practice every year. 

Unbelievable scoreline.  nothing to hang your head about putting up six goals on the 21-time defending state champions.  good luck to all kelly seniors who end up playing at the next level.

sweet!  way to go dawgs!

what happened to HF this year?  weren't they pretty good last year?

[quote name="Scooter!" post="964821" timestamp="1297474382"] I dont care whats out in the media, i believe Deron Williams had some kind of hand in this. [/quote] kinda sounds like it.

is there even another lamar forum out there?  if so, i've never heard of it.

[quote name="ST413" post="964859" timestamp="1297476463"] HJ running the spread offense? They sure aren't scoring much. [/quote] I'd be willing to bet that BC is running the spread offense to keep the score down, but who knows.

[quote name="A Bear's Bear" post="964341" timestamp="1297385781"] [quote author=WellRead link=topic=79961.msg963408#msg963408 date=1297231110] I should know the answer to these questions but I can't get a firm answer from those who should know,  ::) so....      Are districts 37 and 38 using a point system this year to determine 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc, or will they go strictly by wins/losses/ties?      If they are using points, will overtime wins still scored the full three points for the winner?      Will both teams' record reflect a tie if the score is still tied after the second overtime?      Will the points for a shootout be split 2/1 between the teams according to who wins the shootout?      Without a point system (as in club tournament play), I assume a shootout win would be simply recorded as a win. Thanks for the help. Good luck to all the girls and boys teams this year! [/quote] There are no ties in boys 38-4A (dont know about girls).  It goes 2 overtimes, then 5-man shootout, then sudden death shootout [/quote] but do you know about the scoring for OT wins, OT losses, and shootout wins and losses? 

[quote name="jeffcoat" post="964471" timestamp="1297433742"] Why not ask WT what is best for his program, best for his athletes and best for the community? [/quote] these guys have been allowed to make a salary while already receiving their retirement.  they've been done quite a service by this district.  if the district can longer provide that service due to financial constraints, nobody should be misled into thinking they're being mistreated.  as for what's best for all of the program, athletes, or community, the #1 question that's going to be asked is what's best for the district.  even though it may be to some fans, football is not the #1 priority in any school district.  maybe back in the day, but not anymore.
