thanks bullets... how about we tlk about what the threads ACTUALLY ABOUT.. i see silsbee nowhere in that title.... : Cmon...You know it always comes down to a HJ and Silsbee thread anyway ;D ;D you definitely speak the truth...

I would say Kountze/New Waverly, followed by HJ/Cleveland. WHAT!!! what about YATES/WHEATLEY?? OZEN/HUNTSVILLE?? Are you guys really serious? 8) :....Do you guys EVER look past class 3A? WOW! The Yates/Wheatley game will FILL UP a 10,000 seat venue on tommorrow...whoa. : about as often as you look below the class of 4A ;D

So... umm... HJ/Cleveland @ Kountze at 7:30!!!

Counting them chickens before they are hatched, huh bullets? they've won two since i made that statement...

Coldspring did not want to move their game with Silsbee up an hour or back an hour to accomadate having a doubleheader with HJ/Cleveland, is what I am told. those poor things.

hoping kountze!

hahahaha

Silsbee, 3-2.

You and Bullet make good points. So the next question is this: If you are a 6'2"-6'3" guard with very good D-1 skills and live in a 3-A district, would you move to a larger district to play? or stay put? kind of depends... i went to HJ, and had options to move to several schools around here that were much better at soccer (i ended up playing D3 in college), but i didn't want to leave my childhood friends. also, a kid playing in 3A might have a better chance to succeed ON THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL (like Donahoe and his championship) if they play at a lower level. it's probably a different situation for every player.

a real tragedy... thoughts and prayers from beaumont.

Oooop!!! You're right! Then this begs to further ask the qauestion: Why is it that there aren't any 3-A players playing major D-1 basketball? Is it that these kids are good at the high school level in their respective divisions and lack the skills to play major D-1? my personal opinion on this... a 4A school with 1500 kids, or a 5A school with 4000 kids, is more likely just by sheer numbers of students to have a D1 quality player on it's roster due to the mucher larger pool of players they have to choose from. a 3A school, even a good one, is simply less likely to produce a D1 player. on top of that, those 3A players who ARE good enough to play get less exposure than those in bigger classifications. also, if a coach has to choose between two closely matched players, it would make sense for him to go with a player who's in a higher classification, as that player GENERALLY has more experience playing against bigger, better teams, which will have better prepared him for D1 opponents.

you're lucky. i was gonna bring my favorite golf club. my nine mili... my nine iron.

that's a great problem to have

doesn't he play for Baylor?

you're awake. i'm awake. start walking, we'll meet in the middle. it's go-time, whiteboy.

i hate to hear that. i always enjoyed her as a teacher and a person during my time at HJ. enjoy the break, coach!

I have to agree that Lumberton's goalie is the best i have seen this year, and classy.. doesn't play dirty, he knocked me down to get to a ball, but helped me up right after the play... and those are some good stats as well glad to hear that... lumberton had a goalie several years back who would take any chance to hit you with a knee, shoulder, elbow, or cleats up tackle if he could. i always hated cheap goalies, because the officials are really quick to protect them when you retaliate by taking the opportunity to retaliate on the next 50/50 ball.

close enough, we'll claim him.

i hate that i missed it... couldn't be avoided. congrats tigers, now go wrap up that playoff spot.

i just looked at their roster and there was nobody from this area on it.

i'll continue my reverse jinx trend. Cleveland by 4.

final?

what's her total, now?
