Actually Sterling is beating South Houston 15-14 at half...I'm at the game

in my opinion, both Lee and Sterling looked better than they have the past 2 years so they appear to making process...but i guess that is my opinion... it is almost like they are trying to ease the QB into sterling's offense by only putting him in sometimes, but the kid can run some w/ the ball too and his arm is alright...if they want to have a shot at the playoffs they are going to need that kid to be at QB for most of the game and use Nelson as a WR/RB...that number 10 for Sterling is gonna be a heckuva a player the next couple years as long as they can keep a QB that can get him the ball... both Sterling and Lee had some real mental lapses (dumb penalties, and option pitch to nobody on a blown play, etc.) but it was the first game so that is expected, hopefully both can sure those up and get better as they move on...

i am going...hope sterling wins

actually im a sterling fan...i dont post much here but lurk some...i have no idea how the scrimmage actually went but according to the baytown sun's account sterling owned rayburn...dunno what that says considering rayburn is normally not that good anyway....i wish sterling would go on and play GCM, they will have to in a couple years anyway so oh well if they dont for now...looking forward to friday, go rangers!

i was there friday and will be there tomorrow...sic'em bears!

[quote name="Anafanatic" post="777585" timestamp="1268750251"] Not too bad of a seeding...however, there's no reason the aggies couldn't have been a 3/4-seed...especially since they did tie KState & Baylor for 2nd in the Big XII - just saying? :-\ This actually could work out perfect though, home court advantage in houston.  Here's the scenario: A&M over Utah State A&M over Siena A&M over Duke - Sweet 16 A&M over 'Nova - Elite 8 ---------> perhaps Baylor instead of Villanova? Is this likely, probably not - but it is possible....and Reliant would be a maroon-out.  8) [/quote] if you think the Bears would not travel if they made the elite 8 then your sorely mistaken...the Aggies would have more but it'll be closer to 50/50 than the Aggies think...a couple years back Baylor brought something like 14,000 for the Women's final 4 in Indianapolis...if the Bears are in Houston I could see us easily getting 30,000 there maybe 40...it'll be a hot ticket for sure either way... considering the bad blood between Baylor and A&M in basketbally lately if they met in the Elite 8 it would be nasty but also a dream matchup for the NCAA for money and story lines...

Sic'em! That is 2 in a row against the Horns for the apparantly inferior Bears...hope they make it 3 in a row the first weekend in March!

nm thanks

sounds like it could be an exciting game panama...hope the rain stays away

meh...your talkin to a guy who saw lee hang something like 48 points on my rangers in one quarter back when i was in school...Lee is no longer that good, but if anything Sterling played up to par most of my 4 years and got destroyed, minus my freshman year when we won....and that year was prolly more of Sterling finally playing to their ability again that year (99 was frustrating, they shouldve made the playoffs, that team wouldve dominated Sterling last year) and Lee playing a little down...

Go Rangers! I hope we win but losing to New Caney doesnt provide me with any confidence that this will be a run away from the Rangers...It appears to me (from looking at results, so i could be wrong since I havent seen either team play this year) that Sterling is worse than last year and will have a hard time beating Lee much less putting them away by a large margin....

it is a weird world...i graduated form Sterling yet grew up in Liberty and now live there again...however, i go to wayyy more Sterling games than Panther games....

23-15 BC. Liberty scored two TD's. Kicked the extra point on the first then completed a pass in the endzone on the second TD. gracias

so what was the final score of the game....i have seen 23-13 and 23-15...which is it?

good to see that trend turn around...

so what happened?

their district titles were when they had both Barber's Hill and a good Huffman team in the district, not that weak district they have had the past several years, though last year it was better than the couple years before...the Barber's Hill teams would go a ways in the playoffs those years i dont remember what Huffman did...Liberty has had some good teams, but even when they had Chambers, White, Bua, etc they lost in the first round...they either ran into Newton, or more recently choked big time...i think the 10-0 year was the year they lost 6 fumbles in their first round game and only lost by a TD or something...for whatever reason come playoff time Liberty has trouble holding on to the ball....one those playoff appearances, the year they actually had their worst team record wise make the playoffs they went a couple deep becasue they didnt fumble the ball in the first round...if the new coach can get them back to where they were and hold on to the ball i think we'd see liberty in the 2nd or 3rd round yearly....not that that is great but its an improvement...

I went to Sterling...the rivalry is still there is just isnt as intense since Sterling has been horrible for a long time....you saw a little of it come back here recently and hopefully they will keep playing each other enough (if Lee drops to 4a) to bring it back full scale....it is unfortunate they moved the game to the beginning of district instead of the end, last year Sterling/Lee would have been for a playoff spot and that would have brought the game up a little more....but for a game that has so called fallen from glory they still almost fill Stallworth for it every year.... oh and not debating your number but stallworth only sits 16,500 (w/ the old pressbox i think it was 17,000)...even w/o the fire marshall intervening i dont see how they could get over 22,000 in there unless if they were standing around the fence (this may have been the case, i wasn't alive then to know, but currently they wont allow people to do this at all)....

uh...Baytown Sterling Water Polo both girls and boys...you can say what you want about water polo but they win state championships on a yearly basis... of course, for those of yall that dont consider Baytown Southeast Texas then this doesn't matter, but for the others then there is no other program that is anywhere near as dominate...might be the most dominate program of any sport at any school in the state....

i hope Ruben and Smith both play like beast for the rest of their high school and now college careers (sic'em bears!)...well maybe they could have one bad game against sterling and i'd be ok w/ that lol....nice to see the Bears getting some hometown boys

why would we want to trade carlos lee? he has had 3 pf his best years of his career in houston and yes he is expensive but we are getting what we pay for w/ him...u get rid of lee then your pretty much turning us back into the team we had w/ bagwell....berkman will be the guy to walk all the time and then who will make other teams pay? pence? he is like biggio w/ more pop, loves those breaking balls away and will most likely be the 4 hitter w/ berkman in the lineup and no Lee...Pence is very good but he has more holes in his swing than Lee in my opinion...

oswalt was a defensive back and wide receiver in high school

i had always heard that in Baytown Sterling and Memorial were most likely going to stay 5a while Lee dropped...Olin was pushing pretty hard for Lee to stay 5a from what I recall and i figured him leaving was the writing on the wall that Goose Creek Adminstration decided that they werent gonna do what it took to keep them 5a (not that that is a bad thing, just what they decided)...hopefully they can keep the Sterling/Lee game alive....but i wouldnt be surprised if Sterling/Lee stayed 5a this allignment and Lee fell the next one, however i wouldnt be shocked if Lee fell this one too (i think they will be real close obviously)...Sterling is probably going to drop to borderline 5a but considering the growth in Baytown is in the northern part they could actually gain some kids after their inital drop from Memorial opening....

maybe since he was new to the school he decided to give everyone a chance...i dont know if he is kicking out kids with discipline issues now but since he had to deal with all the kids without knowing them previously maybe they all got a clean slate to start out with...that seems reasonable... if liberty can keep that many kids in the athletic dept then it will eventually reap the benefits...the competition is higher and you get your best athletes in school on the field instead of in the stands or at home...they may not come through this year but eventually they will see progress....now whether or not he can keep the kids coming out is another question that will have to be answered...

i dont know a ton about soccer but the announcers and i read several other so called soccer "experts" say that the reason the USA defended the way they did was that Spain typically wasnt a team that scored on a lot of crosses...they'd rather catch u one on one up the middle and beat you that way...so it seemed to me that we decided we werent going to give them their strength and hope for the best and give them the crosses...one of those well we cant shut them completely down but we can make it to where they have to do somthing they are uncomfortable with things, kinda like guarding kobe bryant ya know...
