Ahahahahahahahaha

i was more upset about the blatant blown call that gave UNC the ball back with a chance to win... it should've been maryland's ball with 10 seconds left anyway.

what was the score on this one?

they're gonna get beat up pretty bad. it's tough for schools with no quality youth soccer leagues close to home. Hopefully for them (and HJ) there will be a 3A playoff system soon. They'll be a little more competitive against smaller schools. It's tough when you get thrown into a district with 4 or 5 solid 4a schools.

I'm a longhorn through and through, but over the past couple of seasons i've started following aggie basketball. i'd been really impressed with them all year, but they've looked awful their last two games. Tech smoked them, and then K-state pounded them again today. I believe they'll bounce back, but they need to make some changes. What do you think is going on with the aggies, and what changes do you think they need to make?

great win for the brook! keep it up and bring the district championship home to beaumont!

Geez, there's another morrell? ;D

a heartbreaker for vidor, but a good effort...

good job dawgs! and against public schools, too... imagine that

another impressive win for the hawks!

kinda expected OF to win this one, but it's tough to win with players out. good luck to both of these teams the rest of the year.

sweet! my beloved rangers get another slightly below average pitcher! what happened to Kam Lowe? he was finally showing some promise...

why, because our outlook doesn't coincide with yours? there are a bunch of arguments for and against running up the score. i will say, in response to Newcastle, that as a player, it's more beneficial to work on your passing against a bad team than scoring easy one on one breakaways every 5 minutes. Westend is right... your team is going to gain very little by pounding a bad team. Everything comes easy, and the players don't have to work very hard to succeed, so what do they get, finishing practice? If you get your subs in early, they get playing time and experience. Your star doesn't need to score two hat tricks against somebody just because he can. Against easy competition my coach used to pull me out as soon as i got a hat trick, and if i couldn't get one in the first half of a game we were winning 4 or 5 to nil, then i wasn't going to get one. At the time, it used to make me mad, but now i understand where he was coming from. Why break the spirit of a team who loses almost every game anyway? You don't need to win by 12 to show that you're the best team, and you don't need to score 12 to have a successful game. Be respectful of your opponents.

no, that's why i suggest getting your bench into the game before the score is already out of hand... if you know you're going to beat a team badly, don't wait until the score is 8-0 to put your bench in. do it early so that they can score a few without the team being accused of running up the score.

This is ridiculous. In our district, there are 3 or 4 teams at the top, and 3 or 4 at the bottom, and very little ground in between. Teams like HJ, WOS, and Ozen have struggled over the past few years. Do you mean to to tell me they should take 8-10 "spankings" a year so that the big schools can "compete"? For most of my life i've played on very competitive teams, but i'll tell you, there's a big difference in losing a game 6-0 instead of 10-0. For struggling teams like these, it's important that opposing coaches do their best to keep the score reasonable, so that these kids do not get discouraged and quit. All that said, you sound like maybe your husband coaches for a team who doesn't have to eat from the humble pie too often. If you were on the losing end of a few of these spankings in a row, you might change your tune.

i think so... soccer is one of those games where it's not too difficult to keep from scoring without making the other team feel like crap. i think the key is to get your starters out very early when you know you're going to pound someone. go up 3-4 to 0, then get your bench in. this way your subs will not only get some playing time, but get the chance to do some scoring without making you look bad.

sounds like it was a close game... it's good to know that LU can compete with the best teams in the conference...

that's a big blow for them, but they're very deep. i think because of this they'll probably drop one game before playoffs, but other than that they won't hurt too bad.

i never could stand him, but it seems like they should've gotten a little more for him. they probably just ruined LA though. I can't remember a time where ruiz was willing to play second fiddle to anyone. on the galaxy he'll be a distant 3rd!

if they're going to deport him, why not deport roger clemens... i know he's an american, but it would be kind of fun to make him stay in canada for awhile. ;D

screw that, he needs to see himself playing! one more year!

Who did the Hoops get for Ruiz?
