  1. There is definitely a home court advantage to play in this format.Spurger will play D-ville in the first game at 10:30.The D-ville club will have to get up before daybreak to get to Spurger and play that early.You still can get the same amount of games with the old type brackets.I look at this tournament set up as a way to showcase a game with last years coach.If your gonna do that he should be given a chance to get a little practice in before his team plays in a game like this.Huge difference here in preperation time.

    Clarify a couple of things, are you saying that a win for Spurger in this game will be because Deweyville had to get up too early and because the game is on Spurger's court, and the other is that "if" Kirbyville loses to Spurger, that it is because Kirbyville hasn't had enough practice and Spurger has been playing.  If that's the case w/ Kirbyville in the Spurger Tourney, maybe Kirbyville should just sit this one out and practice.  The way I look @ it is that Spurger's just giving them a few more games to play before they meet up w/ them in the tourney.

    By the way this young 50/50 Spurger team did walk away w/ the win against Deweyville, lot better showing for Spurger than in the Deweyville tourney.  Spurger was up by 28 in the 3rd, starters got more time off than they normally do and bench got more playing time as needed.  And still pulled the win!!!! Great job Spurger Pirates ;)

  2. truth or hogwash, let's see if we can get an honest answer from someone from Deweyville.  Nothing against the Deweyville team, they are an O.K., competitive team to play, but surely not the best team that Spurger has played this season.  I believe this is the worst game that Spurger has played this season, and I still didn't see them play to their potential tonight against Evadale.  And now they will be facing Newton tomorrow ???

    Not small minded @ all and not blaming the loss on the refs. But the calls sure seemed one sided to me.  If Spurger would have played like I know they can, and got the calls that they got, then I would be blaming the loss on the refs.  But they didn't, so I'm blaming the loss on the Spurger Pirates.

    Again I totally disagree with "any kind" of relative officiating a game, as I believe anyone else would!!!

  3. Any predictions for friday nights games?

    Evadale VS Spurger

    Newton VS D-Ville

    If Spurger plays like last night, Evadale may have a shot @ a win.  "I" beleive it was the worst game this season for Spurger, very off game for them.  They played Cleveland this year and only lost by 8 and lost to Goodrich by 12 and these teams are extremely better than Deweyville.  Different night, Different game, Different court, Different outcome!!!! 

    Newton should power over Deweyville, maybe the ref that has a grandchild playing on the Deweyville team will not be officating this game like the Spurger/Deweyville game.  This shouldn't even be allowed to happen.

  4. :D, Spurger can go to state if all 3 seniors stay in the game and they play their ball.  They have beat BS before.  BS use to could outrun Spurger, but Spurger is in shape this year.

    Seems to me that you need to be a supporter of the Spurger team as a whole. You also need to realizes that it is not just the seniors that has brought this team this far.  Yes, they have done a great job, but others have too; including  #1, #12, #34, and #10 ( that young man is one bad a$$ point guard )

    Go Spurger Pirates, let's go prove a point in Naco!!!

  5. LOL.  Now that is funny.  Look fella I read alot of your post and you obviously are short bus material.  You are the reason the state invented 504.  I hope you are able to catch a ride to Nacogdoches with somebody.  The Big Sandy team is good, but you my friend are SPECIAL ED!  We will call The King and ck on that report you are saying he gave you.  Better yet get that film and see for yourself. I gave you the facts. 

    You attack Catman by making fun of the handicap, nothing happens.

    Court side --States the facts(that you are a Idiot) gets the post pulled.Go figure. That is why you don't let Aggies have computers.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

  6. This is the game i am going to tuesday night, i know there are some good games tuesday but this will be one of the better ones.  Both teams are very fundamentally sound and can shoot the ball well.  Slocum plays hard defense and will be a tough test for BS.  I heard BS's big man is not 100%, which i think is a big factor in this game.  If he was at full strength i think he could do some damage against Slocum, who doesnt have a lot of size.  Like i said in the other thread, this game is a toss up, if either team won i wouldnt be surprised at all.  My friend coaches at Slocum so i know a little about them, they have good classy kids and a good community.  For all those who are throwing out predictions on this thread, (like MWhizzie) i'd like you to mention whether or not you've seen Slocum play this year, because i imagine there are not many on here that have. 

    All I know is that I talked to court side and he has seen both teams play,(BS 3 times and Slocum 1 time) To him Slocum is pretty good but they are not in the same class as BS.Maybe it was a bad game when he watch Lovelady beat them.So I am going with BS by 10+ ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
  7. I agree with what yall said about Spurger, Big Sandy, and Newton being on the list, those are all good playoff teams with a legit shot.  That being said, i probably wouldnt vote for Spurger.  Spurger will have to beat West Sabine, which they should.  But then they will have to play Cayuga, who is good, and one the most athletic teams i've seen this year at any level.  I've seen both teams play and that game will be very tough for them, not saying they cant win though.  If they win that game they will have to play the winner of Martins Mill/Big Sandy/Slocum from the other side.  I'm not saying they cant do it, but they will be the underdog in both of their games in the regional tournament.

    Not many have been believers in Spurger all season.  Stay a  non-believer, BEENINNIKES & everyone else.  These boys love being the underdog. 
  8. I can not believe the turn out at this game it was wonderful,I know the boys sure enjoy the big crowds these past couple of games.

    The boys started out a little slow on def. but made up for it in the second half.

    IMO this team is getting a little better each playoff game,and I think the two young guys (#10 & #12 ) are playing very well.What impressed me most was the play of #44 in the second half.This young man can take over a game just about when ever he wonts to. Great job Spurger keep it rolling!!
