ST413

I said almost, those players arent going to throw anything!  Well except the HJ games this year,  if they keep beating them as often as they have lately us  fans will lose interest!! 8)

[/quote]Okay HF fans, you heard it here first. LAZ EEK will wear a HF shirt if HF makes playoffs this year. [/quote] That would almost be worth getting the Tigers to throw their two games with HF!

JV's or not I will still be at Kelly Tuesday and then at the Silsbee-PNG game friday.

I hunt in Woodville. They arent hitting the corn much.  We have seen evidence of rut activity. Parents even saw bucks trailing does yesterday. I went from having over 200 pics in a week(under my feeder) a couple of weeks ago to 75 last week. Had a couple good bucks in pics regularly until a couple weeks ago haven't seen them since

What happened to Spearman?

Someone post updates,i have to work.

I bet there is a few feeling the same way in Huffman. Thats not even a point got discussion.

I have heard that a little myself. That is the part about kids in larger schools.

Haven't ya'll ever "stomped" your feet in anger!! ;D

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="1109819" timestamp="1320815741"] I would agree ST413.........are you implying that Nederland does not have any talent?? If so, you are sadly mistaken!!!  They have been very talented for the last 4-5 years!!! [/quote] No not at all,  they have been good recently.

It all turned around about 9 years ago when he and a few others started a little dribblers program in Nederland. As long as he is our head coach, we will continue to be competitive, and that will keep us active on this board. As I've said before, I don't expect Nederland to win district this season (as I expected them to win last year), but it will not surprise me if they win district again. With their 7th, 8th, 9th, JV, and Varsity teams all winning district last year, I expect Nederland will be very competitive for years to come... [/quote] HonestAbe, can't agree with you more about Brian English. I believe my Pirates would still be a force if he would have stayed. I still get sick at my stomach.....as long as he's in Nederland, you will be a power in basketball. [b]Best coach in the area and a great man[/b]. We miss him terribly. I honestly believe he could coach at the next level; perhaps Lamar should give him a chance given the clowns they've been through in the last couple of decades. [/quote] Great man??  Yes!!!  Best coach in the area???  No, but he is VERY good!!!!  And not far behind the best coaches in the area.  Got to get some hardware before you can be the best!!!! [/quote] a good I don't know if that is necessarily the case.  A Coach who takes very poor talent and gets the best possible results could definately be better than a good coach taking a talented team all the way.  Not stating a case for anyone but hardware isn't always the best measurement.

My point is both being the largest schools in districts where the bottom three teams have been very weak the last four years,  the chances of them not meeting were very very small.

Strange, how is it strange.  The two largest schools in their districts,  where the large schools meet in one division of the playoffs.  Both schools coming from districts where the bottom three teams are pretty set in place for the last few years.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1109650" timestamp="1320807245"] Your right! Also dint HJ have another guy at guard about 2 years ago. He was a very good player. Might have been 5"10 or so and wore a headband. [/quote] Turner

[/quote] You just stated what I have bben saying for weeks,  neither team has a win over good team.  So from that standpoint there is no comparing.  You can't convince me Kashmere is that good of a team.  Coldsprings was probably the Falcon's best game of the year definitely best opponent. As far as how good Newton is, that has to be proven as well but they are definitely off to a good start with a new coach and an 8-2 record.

[quote name="only_one" post="1109411" timestamp="1320795327"] I believe the score was 54-35.  Also that was a 5-5 Huffman team that got lucky to get into the playoffs vs a Silsbee team that was district champs.  This will be a good game and both team will be ready to play.  Good luck to all. [/quote] You are correct.  The Tigers were up 40-14 at one time and 47-22 before the Falcons made a comeback.

There would probably be more interest shown in/by other local teams if they had had the same level of success as these two have had recently.  Especially if there were two more local teams in the same district at that level.  So all of you other local teams take that as a challenge!!  Then we will talk about you. 8)

[quote name="beechnut" post="1109383" timestamp="1320793006"] Ya trying to decide if I want to go to Big Bend and watch etbu and Sul Ross or stay here for this? Hmm Ya yall had a good team when JJ was there but LUCKY they  beat Huffman that game and with one first down yall would have been toast. We had three different chances to put that game away and DID NOT. CHOKE on our part and had a kid that played DE for Huffman [/quote] Was that his sr year or junior year,  I know one was close I thought that was the jr year. I thought his sr year we won a little easier. 

Best chance to have gone deeper than second round recently would have been JJ's senior year when we lost to Navasota by 1.  Would have faced a very tough Gilmer team in the next round that beat Navasota by a TD.

Recent history not very deep for the Tigers.  I believe you have to go back to the 4A years for much of a run.  Go way back and there was a state semi I believe could have been regional finals.  We did go to a regional semi and faced LaMarque a few years back.

[quote name="beechnut" post="1109366" timestamp="1320792028"] Truth be know either of these districts arenot that  strong  compared to rest of the state. Only team that could play with anyone would be CS and maybe WOS. If you put these teams in central or east texas would get drove. Nothing wrong with that but best football is the above areas. South Texas is even worse than these areas. Just my take. [/quote] No argument here.  Not sure you could put WOS up there this year.  Hopeully they will prove themselves in the playoffs.

Only point I might not agree with is Huffman taking car of us, dont know how I think that one will end up. I had started a thread earlier this year trying to compare the two districts.  Our best solution to that will come this weekend. Looking at the schedules and results is not a good comparison this year at all. Even in trying. to compare my G tigers and Huffman,  Huffman played two strong teams in KP and CS with a good showing against CS.  Rest of schedule was pretty weak.  The Tigers  best win was probably Newton maybe Jasper,early.in the  season. Had a goodgame with BC and not too bad a game against WOS.  Still not too sure how strong either of them are. I do know the  tigers need to fix some recent problems and play like earlier in the year or saturday will end the season.  Go Tigers!

Exactly neither team has dominated.  The Tigers have had  decent head to head success the last 3 years but a 9-6 record is far from dominating.
