    Let's test. If a kid doesn't use steroids due to the test, then the testing has done its job.
    [/quote]I agree, random steroid or drug test gives a kid a way to avoid the peer pressure.

    ...and no reason to wait until we have a very serious problem before we do something about it; like we do about so many other things.

  4. LC-M Beats Southlake Carroll Friday

    in SETXsports Archived Threads

    Posted

    At this time of the summer their passing game is prepared enough to compete with the passing games of some of the best teams in the state in touch football. They also have a load of experience and confidence going in to the season.

    By your logic Lake Travis winning state 7 on 7 means nothing even though they're ranked 1 in the state.

    No one predicted an LCM deep playoff run like you described it but don't belittle a great summer accomplishment that helps prepare their team for the upcoming season.

    For those of us not in the know; who's team are we talking about?

  9. UFC 116 Lesnar vs Carwin

    in SETXsports Archived Threads

    Posted

    I have to somewhat agree with the article. A quick opponent with a heavy fist and a little better indurance could be Lesnar’s fall. The final arm triangle was his only highlight of the fight.

    I don’t know how it promotionally compares with other fights but I know I sure was looking forward to it and really enjoyed most of the fights

    Neither fighter can compare to GSP or Silva

  10. UFC 116 Lesnar vs Carwin

    in SETXsports Archived Threads

    Posted

    Carwin jumped on him just like I thought he would. He just didn't finish him off like I thought he would. Props to Lesnar for lasting the first round and coming back though. I don't know if Lesnar will be in a big hurry for a rematch.

    Some other really good fights last night. Lebon had a great fight and showed his toughness. Bonner took some shots and still won. I didn't expect either of those two to win.

    A really good night of fights

    I have to finally agree with you!  :'(   :-*  I knew eventually he would lose.

    How funny though, did I not pm you earlier and tell you I was nervous about this fight?!   ;D  

    Fedors next fight he will fight with a chip on his shoulder!    >:( :o


    I believe that Werdum beat Aleksander the same way he beat Fedor, with a triangle choke.

    Some things to think about; According to his past schedule it will be well over a year before he fights again and he'll be that much older. When he does fight again, will it be a top contender? He avoided Overeme for a long time.

    Could be a long time before he fights a another top fighter.

    he has one fight left on his contract so look for an immediate re-match. werdum wants it and im sure fedor would oblige him. strikeforce will be in houston in late august, wouldnt be a bad place for the rematch!  ;D ;D

    You don't think Werdom would rather Overeem?

  18. WOS ATHLETICS

    Kind of off topic, but was wondering what the WOS enrollment is now and how close are they to 2A cutoff?
    I know it seems unlikely now, but do you 'Stang fans think there is a chance down the road that LCM and WOS might consolidate?   What would it take for this to happen, (when pigs fly and heck freezes over don't count. :D)
    [/quote]


    At this point the State would have to make it happen.

    The way I see it there are only two reasons for the State to come in and force a merger.

    [size=12pt][b]1) WOS academics and or financial situation doesn't get straightened out[/b][/size]

    2) LCM loses tax base (Inland Orange)

    Other than those two, I just don't see it happening. Although I'm not for it, it would be the best thing financially.

    What are the odds of that? Your thoughts?

  20. UFC 115 or 116?

    Barry broke his hand in first round and foot in the fight.

    I guess that explains the change in the last two rounds. That just kills me to see a fighter, twice, rock their oponent down and just stand there and let them get their wits back. No killer instinct.

    You're right about Chuck. Rich looked tough. I think Tito would have taken Chuck this time.

    There were some good fights last night. The only reason Crocrop made it out of the frst round is because Berry allowed him to. That was Berry's big mistake, not finishing him when he had him hurt. Crocrop showed resiliance through the fight.

    Lol lol, I was giving my opinion about the program and people get all mad lol I don't care though, venom fedor better be coming to ufc after the wedum fight because you know he want no part of overeem lol.

    You need to stay in the MMA thread, the posters here can take your opinions.  :D

    Fedor will probably fight Overeem about two years from now.
