CATMAN reacted to Hagar in Shelbyville vs Evadale
Grapeland has an excellent team, but they'll have to get pass LaPoynor first. Never sell them short. They always seem to have good teams, boys and girls both. That should be a good game, but most are at this stage.

Hope your pulling is better than your prognostication.

CATMAN reacted to Hagar in Basketball Road Too Region Tour.
You know how virtually all of us with an interest in a team, get all riled up at polls? I was looking at the brackets and West Texas #8 with a 26-2 record, lost in the first round to a forth place team, as did Neches #11 was 29-2. Of course with SA beating Neches, we have an explanation, but I just wonder if some of these great records are the result of a padded schedule? As I've said, Polls are a good conversation piece. The road to San Antonio is full of bumps and barriers.

No sir, not saying that at all. I was simply saying the experts have said it will be Tenaha or Grapeland from our region. Therefore, should Big Sandy and Evadale play in the regional finals that would upset the experts. Hey, I'm just a dad supporting the team and my son who is a senior. Gonna enjoy every game and hope it's not the last.

CATMAN reacted to Hunter92 in Buna vs La Marque
I'm hoping for the best for Buna, but they are certainly the major underdog in this one. From what I have read in other threads, it sounds like La Marque is more like a legit 4A team rather than a good 3A team. Unbiased observers who have seen both Buna and La Marque say that La Marque is on another level.
Buna is kinda screwed either way because IF they get past La Marque, then they will most likely get # 3 Jarrel in the Regional Semis. Its probably safe to say that Buna has the toughest road to the Regional Finals out of any SETX team..... Two top 5 teams in their bracket. They should have just let Kountze have the 1 seed lol.
Nevertheless, this is the playoffs and Buna is a solid team, so I guess anything is possible.

CATMAN reacted to whsalum in Buna 86 Kountze 78/FINAL - OT
I'm not knocking Kountze because they are always good. For this group to be in a seeding game and to be Co district champs Coach Joubert would have to be in the Coach of the Year conversation. At times this year he had to do it with smoke and mirrors. Duane Joubert is one of the best coaches is Se Texas . -
CATMAN reacted to ReconMarine1980 in Buna 86 Kountze 78/FINAL - OT
I want to rant for a sec, while the National Anthem was being played, some HJ Students wanted to laugh, cut up, anp play on their phones, being a United States Marine and a Vietnam Vet I was very upset by their actions, if you don't want to place your hand over your heart that's fine. But SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!! Sorry guys had to get that off my chest..

Then you would also have "He is reaching" like it's illegal to reach into someone's personal space for the ball.

CATMAN reacted to oldschool2 in Name 5 HS Basketball Rules that Drive Fans Crazy
This thread should be changed to "Top 5 things fans SCREAM that drive ME crazy. Or anyone else that actually knows basketball.
This one that you mentioned ^ is far and away one of the biggest reasons I can't stand going to high school basketball games. When I hear/see someone yell "OVER THE BACK!" I literally want to walk up to them and slap them in the face. Yes...no such call. It's either a push, or nothing. I can't stand that people don't realize when position isn't established in rebounding then it is literally a jump ball. And someone can legally jump higher than or over another player and grab a rebound as long as contact isn't made.
My biggest pet peeve for sure. Another one for me is when a referee calls traveling on a kid that does a Euro step.
Oh.. and almost forgot. "FOLLOW YOUR SHOT!" Yeah that one drives me crazy too. 1st...what chance do you think a kid has of making a jumpshot if they literally sprint to the rim after release?.. 2nd...If you suck so bad at shooting that you know you need to run to the rim to get the rebound... Then you don't need to be shooting. Sorry not sorry.

CATMAN reacted to TxHoops in Name 5 HS Basketball Rules that Drive Fans Crazy
That's a live ball. If it hits something (like a cord or bar) that is not part of the backboard, it is a dead ball. But the top of the backboard is not out of play.

The biggest wrong call in HS Bball, IMO. Drives me insane.

CATMAN reacted to MBaller#1 in Name 5 HS Basketball Rules that Drive Fans Crazy
How about when teams are swinging the ball around and a player catches the ball hesitates and drives to the goal they always call traveling.

By far, "over the back". No such rule...

To paraphrase Gloria from White Men Can't Jump, sometimes when you win, you actually lose. Porter is the last team from that district I'd want to play right now. They are red hot, riding an 11 game win streak, I believe.

This. Silsbee will have to play its worst game of the last two seasons for it to be anywhere close. This one will be over in a hurry.
