I said this a-day or so ago.  Everybody wanted to compare this group with the McCain and Adams years and with three straight finals that comparison leans to those years but you could argue that without FF this group of Tigers could have well had 2 titles of their own, although there would have been another tough team out of that region that would have had something to say about it.

Faith Family better off playing Plano East. 

This is what happens when you let one of the best 6A squads in the state play 4A.

Yes. Lipan is always fun to watch, look forward to seeing them here every year.

Gotcha.  The coaches son #34 is a freshman and scored 27 of their 40 in the semifinal.  That’s two studs that have 3 more years together 

Ponder out played Hitchcock for 3 1/2 quarters. That last 4 minutes of the 4th was not good.
Hated to see them lose it like that. 

Ponder got up by moving the ball some and getting smart shots off.  In the 4th it seemed like they abandoned that and tried to kill off the game by eating clock, and Hitchcock’s defense was too good for them to be able to pass the ball around up top for very long.  It kept leading to turnovers and easy baskets for Hitchcock

in a thread discussing a 17-year-old high school kid's injury, you posted that if Kobe had the SAME injury, he would play and probably drop 40.  That's the literal definition of comparing one to the other.  Let's get back to the game.

Incredible run by this senior class, and so unlucky to have to finish that run without Dotson.  BU showed incredible heart tonight, and gave Stony Point all they wanted and more.  I’m confident in saying had Kayde been healthy we’d be watching BU in another state final.  Either way, United has everything to be proud of, and nothing to hang their head about.

Great run by BU I think this years run was the most impressive of them all, because no one had BU picked to win the region. They showed the heart of a champion tonight. Also I’m confident that BU would’ve won state had Dotson been healthy based off what I seen from the other 3 teams today. Either way nothing to hang your head over, this group will be forever remembered in Beaumont. 

What a gutty gutty performance by Payia and United. Down their leader Dotson and then Green fouling out, ended up just too tall a task to get the win.
Great 4 year run for BU and Coach Green.

It’s like $12 a month or something.  It’s worth it during the playoffs, although they have cut back on a lot of their regular season broadcasts 

Imagine how many you’d have been to if you hadn’t waited until your 20s to start going…

Mine either, it's like a normal thing. I bet if FF was from this area though they would have an issue with it. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I know this is beating a dead horse but I still don't understand how FF is 4A. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I know the all district selection argument has always been “it’s about recognizing the kids” which is true. Personally I think it should be recognition of the very best. A reward for hard work and performance. Selection of 20 all district players in a 7 team district waters down the award for the players who are actually deserving. Pick 5 players on 1st team and include them as the superlative players. Pick 5 on the 2nd team and you’ll actually start recognizing kids for their accomplishments again. Under no circumstance would I open the selection process to parents and slide shows and stats. You’d have lil Johnnys Little Dribbler game winning shot on the projector. JMO for what it’s worth as a fan.

First of all, in regards to the #1 seed game. I know that Orangefield wanted to flip and not play but Kountze said no. They wanted to play the game. So Orangefield had to agree to play or concede the #1 seed.
As for the superlatives go, I actually thought that Whitmire and Joubert should have been Co-COY. They both did tremendous jobs with their respective teams. I usually don't like Co's but in this case I think it's deserving and would have been the right thing to do.
I think the coaches got the MVP right. IMO, Sells is the best player and performed that way all season. I think Scales getting Offensive MVP is right on the money and Wrinkle getting Defensive was the correct call too. IMO, Wrinkle was more valuable to his team but isn't the scorer that Scales is. This is based on some of the games I have watched live and on video. When I talk to folks at the games it's always brought up how Wrinkle is Orangefield's "glue guy" (does it all) but just doesn't have the offensive game that Scales has. 
All in all, I think the coaches have it right.
Just my opinion. No shade thrown anywhere.

I gotta ask the age old question, is there anyone who doesn’t make all district?

@Cu Chulainn I believe my sentence started with Ghost is a good player, come on man no need to get so worked up. 
 
I do think you miss the fact that people tend to poke at you a little bit with some of your outlandish takes and bizarre behavior. 

Who is down playing him?
