[quote name="stori" post="727308" timestamp="1260409487"] They will win district.  They have an energetic new coach, Josh Tanner, who has high goals for them.  Their pre-season games are going to be brutal...we'll see how that goes!  They did not lose too many to graduation, but strikers will be learning to work together and make it happen without the prolific scorer, Michelle Sladaritz.  They have a lot of experienced players that should be able to do that...and four promising freshmen on varsity this year.  Check them out at the Kelly Winter Classic tournament in January.  [/quote] we talking about girls or guys?  josh should be a good coach.  i play with him on sundays, and he's a solid player who understands the game really well.

[quote name="swagg" post="726506" timestamp="1260305299"] "Correction Haters" The game was decided when we put Jasper on the schedule. We throw alleys because we can. Don't start hating because hj shooter can't shoot and wasn't blessed with hops. [b]We give out fans their money worth.[/b] Kinda like Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. [b]We play to win the game. And that's exactly what we did. Easily. Roar, Roar![/b][/quote] exactly how much did your fans get out of that first HJ game?  I guess HJ's just lucky ya'll weren't playing to win against them.

[quote name="PURPLE 4EVER" post="725766" timestamp="1260211549"] I think he might be trying to design his own 18 "ho" golf course   ;) All of this is really sad for Tiger... He will never, nor should he ever, get the respect as a man as he should. Sponsors really should look twice as letting him represent them. [/quote] hahahaha

the new one is a rough looking gal!

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Portland center Greg Oden will likely miss the rest of the season after fracturing his left knee cap Saturday night in the Trail Blazers' victory over the Houston Rockets. "He's a strong kid," said general manager Kevin Pritchard, visibly shaken by the latest injury to befall the 7-foot center. "He's going to bounce back from this." [Hidden Content]

Fishermen are reeling in bigger and more mature red snapper — a sign that the overfished species is beginning to recover and tight regulations can be relaxed a bit, according to a new analysis. Based on results of this year’s annual survey of red snapper, released Wednesday in New Orleans, a panel of scientists recommended allowing fishermen to catch more of the fish starting next year. The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council, which sets fishing limits, will vote on the recommendation in February. Roy Crabtree, the regional administrator for the National Marine Fisheries Service, said the assessment showed that overfishing has ended, but not that “red snapper has been rebuilt or recovered.” He said fishermen could expect quotas and catch limits on red snapper to be increased. The “findings show indications that some recovery has occurred in the red snapper population,” said Chris Dorsett, a conservation expert with the Ocean Conservancy, a national marine advocacy group. He added: “This is great news for the Gulf environment and the economy.” Glen Brooks, the Cortez, Fla.-based president of the Gulf Fishermen’s Association, said it was common knowledge among fishermen that red snapper were making a comeback. “We believe the population is real healthy. The fishermen see things a couple of years before the scientists see it with their model assessments,” Brooks said. “On the west coast of Florida, if you caught two, three snapper a trip, it was pretty good. Now, you can load a boat up with the suckers. They have definitely come back pretty strong.” Not everyone agrees. James Cowan, a fisheries oceanographer at Louisiana State University, warned that the recent data likely reflected a temporary rebound. He said the scientific panel based its recommendations on “the least conservative” model runs. Cowan sits on the advisory panel and voted against increasing catch limits. “We’re still killing the young too quickly. We need the fish to live long enough to produce a bunch of eggs,” Cowan said. “These guys don’t reach maximum egg potential until they’re 15 years old.” “This has happened before,” he said. “Everybody gets amped up, we increase catches and we realize after that we can’t support that fishing rate.” Red snapper can live for more than 50 years, but for the past 20 years the Gulf has been populated by smaller and younger fish, most of them under five years, Dorsett said. He said “rebuilding that age class structure was critically important” to maintaining the species. Red snapper is regulated under a plan that restricts how many million pounds of the fish can be caught each year by commercial and recreational fishermen. There also are rules to stop fishermen from discarding red snapper they don’t use and from catching them in shrimp nets.

wow!

another solid showing for the broncos.  i hate to see them lose this one after it looked like they had it locked up!

glad to see we're as bad as everyone predicted this year :)

crap, you stole my post, bon.  good to see you back on here, though!

I guess group G is the group of death this year.  Brazil, Portugal, and the Ivory Coast should make it pretty interesting.

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

[quote name="triskaideka" post="722951" timestamp="1259865142"] [quote author=hj_hawk_60 link=topic=63154.msg721567#msg721567 date=1259687545] 2A soccer does not exist.. Only 4A and 5A.. 3A teams are allowed to play up in 4A districts, but you are not allowed to play 2 levels up (2A to 4A).. I believe Kountze used to have a soccer team, but was forced to drop it when they dropped from 3A to 2A... [/quote] Thank you.  I thought I remembered that fact....so until KVILLE moves to 3A it will not be able to have a school team......................but HEY!!! we can still have a club folks, and we will wait for the Local 3A Teams to call us and we will be able to join the spring leagues and play...and show that Kville has soccer talent!!!!! Keep up the posts!! [/quote] there should be 3A soccer in the next couple of years, and once that starts, Kirbyville will only be one level down and should be able to play up in a 3A district.

uh oh, another possible mistress has surfaced.

Ricossa was a beast!  He's gone from a good role player to a major part of the hawks' offense.  he controlled the glass, and scored about 20 while missing maybe 3 shots all game.  I can't even begin to start on how impressed i was with him tonight.

hawks won by about 30

daingerfield will be tough to beat

i'm hunting in east texas in avinger, a little town outside of jefferson.

Pitt isn't ranked right now, but i think this will be one of the signature wins for the horns by the end of the season when the committee starts looking at seeding the tourney.

Brown ends up with 12 points, and more importantly, only 1 turnover, which he's struggled with so far this year.

Horns win 78-62!  Texas ends on a 30-13 run.

but they have the athletes to carry them when the offense isn't running well. they kind of remind me of memphis from a couple of years back.

horns up 10 with about 5 left.
