  1. And again, that bet was made after the DC approved the 7 footer, but before someone went crying to Uncle Rod. i know you know how valuable a 7 footer is since it took one for the Panthers to win its title (or 6-10).
  2. All I know is a sweep is still possible for one team. The other? Not so much. Not bad for a 10-15 pt underdog....
  3. The kiss of death has spoken. Congratulations Jag fans...
  4. You called it. Next up is the Titans beating NS.
  5. Sign your team is pretty good: when you are impressed with a team you just beatdown by 40+ However, I do agree with your statement about the Cards on both counts...
  6. Atwood is ranked 8th, Pearson 13th in Hicks' current rankings. That has been reversed as often as not. Point being they are 1 and 1a either way. Both do different things really well. I love the junkyard dog-type players so I really enjoy watching TJ. When they are meshing, the Jags are a very tough team to beat. Also, glad to hear Nigel was hitting big FTs last night. Saw him struggle with them earlier this year which was not normal for him.
  7. Yep. Seeing how Ozen lost, as expected, to Central and didn't have to come from behind (at home) to beat Nederland, the next Ned-Ozen game should determine whether Ozen gets a piece of second or that silver trophy all to themselves...
  8. Reading comprehension my friend. The DC is not the UIL. It's ironic that someone who always claims no one else knows what they are talking about, continuously demonstrates he doesn't know his arse from his elbow...
  9. Not exactly but close.
  10. try again Radio. I know who, where and when these conversations occurred. I don't speak of what and whom I know nothing about (unlike some, like the person with whom I am speaking). As far as why, if you can't add 2 + 2, well I can't help you pal.
  11. And I made the wager when I assumed Sodom was going to be playing. Don't worry dude - Uncle Rodney's gotcha.
  12. I know that I will probably forget more basketball than you've ever known before I finish typing this...
  13. You just wanted to bet me Ned wouldn't win a game against the Beaumont schools this year! I see what you're doing...Those Jedi mind tricks won't work on me!
  14. I know your comment was tongue-in-cheek and you are all about letting the kids play. I was just using your comment to rant a bit.
  15. Who wouldn't be happy with a graduate of the second best school in the intellectual Mecca of Louisiana leading your university?
  16. I actually think that would be a great hire for UH. He's a great recruiter and obviously has a very astute football mind. Always hoped he would one day be the head coach at Texas. His extracurricular activities during his last stint probably will prevent that from ever happening again.
  17. Irony is I predict Allen will never take a snap for Herman. He will either get the job he has been waiting for after next season or take one elsewhere (barring a collosal collapse by the Cougs). Hope Kyle is happy with his replacement.
  18. The "spin" is a very good Jag team that has already beaten the mighty panthers once would be much better with a 7'3" kid who is forced to watch. A very good kid, by the way, who came to the states to get a better education and learn the game a basketball. I am intimately aware of his situation and background and it's as textbook a case of a "hardship" as I've ever heard or seen. But because a couple of other schools were quaking in their boots, some "contacts" were made to prevent him from playing. So okay. But if you're scared, at least admit you're scared. We all know you are anyway By the way, if there's any karma or justice in this world, those 2 school will go 0-5 (at least) this year against the Jags...
  19. You must be a birdie on my shoulder. These very same principles of the game I have complained about on numerous occasions during this high school season (not being done at all or not being done properly). The ones I see doing it best are very active in summer ball. Most play very high level summer ball (I.e., shoe circuit teams) and I don't think it's a coincidence.
  20. True, but apparently it's going to remain "fun sized" because a couple of teams were poor, little frightened fellas. Just saying predicting a 6 pt win by Big Ned isn't THAT outlandish. Again, if Central takes care of business, they should win. But as I said before the Ozen- Ned game, the Bulldogs winning any district game they play in doesn't qualify as a shocker anymore.
  21. 1) After the Nederland having Ozen down for the count and letting them up Tuesday, it's not like predicting a 6 pt win by Nederland is the most outrageous prediction in the world. They are playing this one at home and them winning by a few FGs would be less of an upset than them losing to Silsbee Lite earlier this season. That being said, I expect the Jags to win. 2) OF still has his alma mater confused with the Port Arthur Lincoln Bumblebees. Unless you are claiming the Hebert titles. Then that would make a little more sense...
  22. If we are using height to define big (and you have to because a 6-10 guard/forward shouldn't be penalized for being "too skilled") Anthony Davis Kevin Durant LaMarcus Aldridge Tim Duncan Blake Griffin Kevin Love Andre Drummond Hassan Whiteside Chris Bosh DeAndre Jordan Jahlil Okafor Karl Anthony Towns Kevin Garnett was pretty salty for about 15 years or so and Dwight Howard was pretty good in his prime.
  23. All good points. Believe it or not, college coaches now are coaching to give up the mid ranger because of the lack of practice on the shot.
