Honest Abe

It was a jab at BISD. They count students like America counts votes...🤣😎

It’s like they are in another class....like a 6A class...

But on a serious note, you’re correct. I didn’t think we would struggle this Naldy and get beat by 40. I owe Soulja a steak dinner.

I know right. They make a deep run in 6A then drop their numbers so they can win state in 5A. Geniuses!!! 😎

No my bad. You’re right. We should follow rules when counting students or votes! Maybe United should play Sabine Pass next week. Since numbers don’t matter, why not? 

Not until next realignment ... lol

Most teams have that issue against United. They’re on another level this year. 

Omg!! Are you serious old friend?? 🤣🤣🤣

👀👀👀

Yearly this has become somewhat of a rivalry game between two good programs with top shelf coaching. United (13-0) hasnt played a game in 14 days. Nederland (13-0) last played 5 days ago. This could be a factor in the margin of the of the final score. United is humble enough to prepare and humble enough to perform. Looking forward to a fair called injury free game. Lace them up and let it do what it do...jmo...

Predicting a final score on a high school level is ludicrous, Murphy's Law will always apply with young athletes...jmo...And every is entitled to their opinion...

My neighbors cousins brothers friends co-worker said that the officiating was a major factor in huffman.

Then why are you engaged in the debate at hand? 

Salty or simply the truth? Does ANYONE deny that Yates recruits? This isn’t college basketball, it’s high school. The idea is to take the kids in your town and play against the kids in the next town to see who is better. The next level, college, is where you get the best talent from said schools and put them on the same team and then compete. Yates is basically a small college/JUCO team. 

Shadow Creek was loaded. We had to play our best to win, and we didn’t. Missed too many easy shots and had way too many turnovers. 

Then why are you engaged in the debate at hand? 

See AAW’s post above. Please provide a rebuttal to his statement (without calling him a crybaby, preferably).

4 of the 5 transfers to Yates this year are seniors. If that's not a red flag, what is?
I know schools get transfers. But when you get 3,4,5 a year and they are one sport players (not just students) and seniors to boot, that's suspicious.

Ok Buddy, try to understand how this works. I’ll go real slow for you....
You made a comment about your build a program, blah, blah, blah...’ 
I responded with a rebuttal (this is considered debating your statement). Are you with me so far? Good. 
 
Next, I would suggest maybe defending your statement. However, your response was  ‘crybaby...’  (This would be considered an attempt to undermine my rebuttal). You still with me? 
 
so, let’s try this again. 
 
Me:
Build it and they will come? That is what a college does. They build a program by recruiting HS kids to play for their school and compete against other similar schools. 
Ok, now it’s your turn:
 Do you agree that colleges ‘build it’ by recruiting as I stated? Do you think HS teams should be able do the same? It sounds like it from your remarks. I just happen to disagree with said statement. 

See, no crying, just debating. 
 
This has been brought to you by;
Lesson 101 in debating. 
You’re welcome. 

They would need to go to the gym, work harder, watch more films, and become 6'8" in large numbers.

You will be hard pressed to find a group that spends more time in the gym than the kids at HJ. Last night was simply a contrast in numbers.The bigger the pool of players the better team you can put on the floor.The kids certainly have a right to play however if the schools have a choice of thousands of players they should compete in the highest classification.

Wouldn't nobody here be apologizing for these squads if their teams were the ones that had to deal with it.
Hypothetical Super team - 150
Beaumont United - 40
If that something like that happened every year, you know good and well feelings would change.
I applaud Coach Davis for speaking the truth after the game.
