    72 Pinto got a reaction from mfd814 in 22-3A All District Picks   
    I am confused why an arbitrary individual award that is non-monetary is such a big deal to you.  Everyone now thinks they should be recognized for every little thing they do.  How bout these kids just go play the game and have fun and not need constant reinforcement and ego boosting?  I promise they won't get that when they go to work.
    Why do you believe the votes have gone differently than you believe they should?

    It doesn't matter what any of us think.  It's the district coaches' decision and they picked the best player on the best team so it can't be that egregious. 
    I do think there should be some accountability with these votes, though.  These are public schools so the voting should be open to public record.  Maybe they could even do it at a place like Twin Peaks and people could present their case with film and stats.  Then we could see who voted for who without all the backwoods politicking. I think I would go to that all district meeting.

    This is why I poke at you all the time.  There's so much wrong in this post.  The refs aren't cheating you or your kid.  They're certainly not afraid of you having "evidence" in a kangaroo court. You're not achieving anything by acting like a Jersey Shore fool (standing up for them as you say), except to entertain people.  Do you think that causes officials to change how they call in the Bobcats' favor?  And why are you even talking to your kid in the middle of the game?  Pretty sure he has a real coach who is pretty dang good.
    Your son is a really good player.  Like really good.  And I love watching him play (except for all these techs), but I seem to find myself always watching your antics.  Orangefield has had a fantastic season and I hope it continues past Hitchcock.

    I was not at this game, unfortunately, but I have a question.  You are saying Kountze faceguarded and doubled your son.  Were they not in a diamond press and zone?  I have never seen a Kountze team not in zone.  Just curious.

    I thought it was the role players/bench underperforming that cost yall the game?  Or is it the refs' fault now?  Maybe if the Bobcat guards would attack the paint instead of jacking excessive amounts of long jumpers and slinging the ball to the other team, they would get to the free throw line more.  In sports, there are no excuses.  Only results.

    They would go 6-4 regardless of offense with that schedule and district.  Lots of bold statements here that mean nothing.  By all accounts, this guy is a good coach.

    I don't know the Peevy's.  I'm sure they're nice, but I'm from Groves.  Much easier to get land in Orangefield when we built.
    Hate is a strong word.  I don't hate anyone or anything.  No actual reason, but I just have always rooted against LCM.  However, I do not like openly recruiting (you can disagree all you want, but I believe what I believe) and then playing the victim when those kids aren't cleared.  What I do like to do is argue and I love this board because of it.  
    You guys support your team and that's great.  Don't ever stop.

    East Chambers fan talking about transfers is rich.  I like Fannett.  Lots of good players and one of the best coaching staffs around.  Kennebew is an up and comer, Knowles is the experienced old coach, and Robertons is the wily veteran.

    From all accounts, that was a much better showing by the Bears.  Staff adjusted the offense to basically just running the ball.  Players showed some resilience and toughness by coming back.  I like the call going for the win.

    Ouch.... I think there is another 30 or 40 pop coming with the Legacy Sports Academy coming in soon. Is everything ok in Bear country?  Can high schools get transfers mid-season? Regardless this district will be a fun follow. I think BC can hang with L-train tomorrow night if they keep playing how they have been.

    Respectfully disagree.  Hefner chose A&M over offers from Houston and Oklahoma.  Weisbrod went to New Orleans/Lamar.  I'll take Hefner over Weisbrod.
    Jamie Weaver went to Houston and was on the Phi Slamma Jamma teams.  I'll take him over Hefner.
    Buddy Davis won an Olympic gold medal and two NBA titles in the 50's.  He's your winner for Nederland.  Don't tell Colton's dad I said that, though!

    Why would you not play a talented team that is 10 minutes down the road?  That's how you get better.  Dropping this game would be an admission that LCM cannot compete and would be embarrassing.  I'm no LCM fan, but they competed with the Mustangs the last two years and should continue to.  Dodging them is a pitiful take on things.

    I agree that this loss doesn't tank your season.  I agree that you are what your record is, but his has progressively dropped at two different places.  Personally, I think the Morris kid is more responsible for LCM success than anyone.  He was really good.
    Enlighten me on what he's changed and done to make things so much better for all of LCM.  I'll hang up and listen.
