My son, Matt Robinson, collapsed and died at home plate at NHS High school diamond. I will take to task anyone who would even question the integrity of this young man. Matt was as good a person as you would ever want to meet, just as I'm sure is the case for this young man. Matt died from arrythmia. To even suggest either was on drugs of any kind without knowing anything about them is totally cruel and insensitive. My prayers go out to the parents, family, and friends of this young man.

I like to look at it like Ball's competition is getting tougher.  ;D

Love the updates. Thanks to all. Wat to go Dogs!!!!!

Time?

Score?

Came out firing. Let's go Dogs!

That would be the halftime chat part.

English will have his halftime chat with them and come out hitting on all cylinders. Sometimes you just have to feel out a team. Go Dogs!

No need to panic. Go Dogs!

What were the circumstances of Huntsville's last possession....the turnover with 8 seconds left? Was it a steal or did they throw it away, travel, double dribble......?

Sorry, not familiar with Huntsville. Great win Dogs!!!

What does Green Hornet mean?

Just have to go out and execute our game not giving any attention to the opponent's record. Whoever is there, we must play well to win. Go Dogs!

Nebraska acting like they won the national championship tells me all I need to know! Hook 'Em!!

Coach English should be beginning to smile now.

[quote name="football04" post="966744" timestamp="1297821231"] Why is Coach English not happy [/quote] Just a guess. Heading into the playoffs, maybe he just isn't seeing what he thinks it will take to keep advancing. Maybe there is a little sloppy play.

The fact is that most basketball games come down to the final minutes with one team being down by no more than 10 points. The team that is down will foul to force FTs. This is where games are won and lost. FTs are key. [/quote] I guess you are assuming that if a team misses the free throws that they were forced to take, that the other team converts each time? [/quote] Of course not. Why would you assume that? If you hit those FTs, you maintain your lead. Miss them, you give your opponent a chance to gain or overtake. No one converts everytime. Was that just for the sake of argument?

Just saying, I don't think any fighter today could have taken Fedor five years ago. No matter who it is, you will always have those who say,"Yeah, but if he would have fought...."

He's past his prime. It happens. Still the best champ I have seen.

Within reason, show me a team that shoots 85% FTs as a team, and they are more than likely in the playoffs and going for a title. You make your FTs, you maintain your lead or stay even.

[quote name="whsalum" post="965474" timestamp="1297560490"] This is becoming a lost art in the high school game.I have watched a ton of games this season and I have never seen so many kids with such poor form.You see them standing with their feet sideways,taking their eye off the rim and even putting a loop in the release.This used to be taught for hours in practice but it seems like it's completely overlooked in todays game.This time of year it's the difference between winning and losing. [/quote] Except in a blowout, I think it is always the difference. JMO.
