some of you silsbee fans crack me up. at the beginning of the year, it was a "joke" because HJ had the worse record but was ranked higher. now HJ's schedule is "too easy" (despite a few common opponents and several games against ranked teams) which is why their record continues to improve while Silsbee's is dropping. it's irrelevant. i honestly can say i haven't seen any HJ fans on here criticizing the Silsbee program for dropping some games lately, but still several Silsbee fans have come up with excuses or justification for the losses. nobody blames you for losing to good opponents. quit worrying about trying to justify how Silsbee is better than HJ. they'll play in a few weeks, and if they win, you'll have all the proof you need.

Silsbee by 18

way to bring it home to SETX!

okay, thanks... those are some good results from the JV against some teams that usually are deep enough to field strong JV's. If the varsity doesn't show some improvement this year, hopefully some JV guys can come up and make a difference.

i'd be more than happy to take either one of them to start a team.

both teams have done a good job scheduling tough opponents to prepare for district. i'm looking forward to seeing the head-to-head results.

HJ beat nederland?

the hawks "down year" just continues. last year's team would've won by at least 35. ;D

i heard he has a twin brother who has 3 arms, plays offensive line, and hasn't allowed a sack in two seasons.

what a shootout!

John Smoltz, who accumulated 210 victories and 154 saves for the Atlanta Braves over the 21 seasons, is set to sign an offer sheet with the Boston Red Sox on Thursday afternoon, according to sources -- and he is leaving the Braves organization perturbed, after reading comments made by the team's chief executive officer. Smoltz Smoltz will earn a $5.5 million base salary with the Red Sox, and can earn up to $5 million in an incentive clause. Smoltz went to Turner Field on Thursday morning to clean out his locker. Thursday, Braves CEO Terry McGuirk told the Atlanta Journal Constitution he was surprised Smoltz is signing with the Red Sox. "John is a great guy. He follows his own head, and I just don't know what's going on with him right now," McGuirk said, according to the report. "We've offered less of a guarantee, but we've offered a substantial guarantee. Coming off an injury like this, we feel like it's the right thing that we should be doing. "We've offered him a package that would get him in the $10 million range, if he were to pitch a full season and pitch well," McGuirk said, according to the AJC. "For him to walk away from that and to go to another place, I'm just shocked and surprised. "I read today in something that his agent said the other set of incentives [from the Red Sox] were 'more attainable,'" McGuirk said, according to the report. "If John Smoltz pitches like John Smoltz pitches, I think [what we offered] is attainable. If he's not healthy, it's not going to happen." Smoltz responded to that, with a statement released through his agent, Lonnie Cooper. "I was going to withhold comment until the announcement of my signing with a new team," Smoltz said, "but I now feel the need to clear up any misconceptions and inaccuracies about the contract negotiations between myself and the Atlanta Braves. "There were large discrepancies between the offer from the Braves and offers from other teams. "I have always loved the city of Atlanta, and it will always be my home. I will cherish my 21 years with Bobby Cox and all my Braves teammates. I continue to wish the Atlanta Braves nothing but success in the future."

how cheap? 11 mil? he just turned down 10 mil from the yankees...

i don't really like him much.

also, we need some of those sticky nametags so that we can have our member names on them.

how many people does this place seat?

before these two games they had an EXTREMELY weak schedule. they'll be in the next poll, though.

i've thought about looking into whether or not i can coach over there... i don't know anything about the coach they have now, though.

hands down. you have a quality varsity coach coaching your JV. you can't tell me that hasn't had a bit to do with HJ's recent success.

he looked like someone dipped his head in a bucket of vaseline.

wow.

Game over, Texas loses.

Arkansas made a 3-point play, 65-61, pigs lead, Texas ball. James just fouled out.

HUGE tip-in by Texas, 62-61, pigs lead, pigs' ball. 48.2 seconds left.

62-59, pigs lead, pig's ball, 2:12 left.
