About a week ago

Things just not going the Astros way tonight. Kinda like game 3 against the Red Sox. Astros will be fine, still think we get one in the Bronx and Verlander finishes the series out in game 6.

Keuchel & Verlander were incredible! Need 3 more starts like that from each of them. A good sign for the Astros is that offense has won majority of the games this season, while their pitching and defense has been questioned. The defense, especially by the outfield, has been terrific this postseason and the pitching has been lights out minus game three versus the Red Sox. That is a great sign moving forward. I'm not sure of the exact number, but I don't remember many games the Astros won this season only scoring two runs. I feel they can close this series out in New York, maybe even a sweep because how rested the bullpen is. If we win game 3, depending on how that game goes, I feel like we would see a lot of the bullpen in game 4, due to Devo and Giles the only two who have thrown. Bats need to get hot, so we don't have these close games the rest of the way!

LaMarque as 2nd place out of 3A-D1 District 12?? Don't see that happening.

I do believe Hardin is much improved from last season, but I also think EC is as well. Last season was the worst team EC has had in a very very long time, but it was also one of the youngest ever. This team is also very young, but has a lot of varsity experience for their youth. EC beat Hardin 56-6 last season, and if my memory serves me right, EC lost 3 fumbles inside the Hardin 15 yard line. I feel the score to be around the same Friday night, but I know the defense would love another shut out. EC's defense will keep Snell off balance all night, and our secondary has a good bit of speed. This will be a win for EC, but we need to get a big lead early and stay healthy.

Bron reportedly to miss this game with his tweaked ankle. No IT and no Bron, no drama.

Keuchel was lights out tonight! Need Verlander to deal his stuff tomorrow. Need Morton or Peacock to have one solid start in New York, five would be nice. I'll still say Astros in 6.

Well the first night of play was a little surprising to me. EC shut down Hempstead. I thought this was a game we should win, but did not see a shutout. LaMarque is worse than I thought. Anahuac-Hitchcock are two solid teams, which I already thought. My playoff thoughts have changed: Hitchock, EC, Anahuac are the front runners, IMO. LaMarque and Hempstead will play for the fourth spot. What do y'all think?

Don't worry EC learn how "overrated" the Eagles are two weeks ago!

Phone died. Nice win for the Bucs. 3 home games, 3 shutouts.

19-0 EC end of 3rd. 42yd field goal that half.

Them Dogs were ready to go!

EC attempts 50 yd FG as time expires, misses. Personal foul on Hempstead for jumping the line, moves it up then they do the same thing again. Moves the ball to the ball to the 10yd line. 20 yd FG good. EC leads 16-0 at half.

13-0 EC 2:20 left in 2nd quarter. Ball at the Hempstead 20 and driving.

Stros in 6.

With tip-off just a few weeks away, what are some some predictions for this season? Here are three of mine: Final Four: Arizona, Michigan State, Duke, and Wichita State Wooden Award Winner: Miles Bridges, Michigan State Teams to watch: Northwestern (Final Four Potential), Alabama, Texas, and Texas A&M

Are your Dogs better than Silsbee? (Only team that has come close to playing with Newton)

Newton will score early and often. Only team that can play with Newton is Newton. Much better than everyone on their schedule.

Congratulations to Coach Parish and the Lady Horns!

East Chambers won 3-0

I hope Edwards steps up and has a full season, like he can have. Hope to see him have a good year!

Not going to matter, tried telling my old friend MossHill a few years back. Hardin has improved, but will big win a district game in this alignment.

HF won

Had that discussion this morning. That tells you how good Newton is, 41-17 over Silsbee then dismantle an average, but solid, EC team. Along with the BC beatdown. Good luck Eagles, expecting big things this season.

Newton is the real deal. Was not at the game, but EC was a little beat up after tonight. Good time for the Rice Festival and a bye week. The real season starts in two weeks!
