"a valid point" that was NOT dismissed, rather handled according to uil rules and therefore, no longer an issue. If you need excuses perhaps look closer to home!!!

Not to worry...I can take care of the gumbo!

you guys are making me nervous, as it is,I can barely sit still...let's just get on with it already!!!

All that makes sense, BUT, I watch a lot of basketball - boys and girls, and there is a major difference in which officials call girl's games and which call boy's. Sorry if it sounds like I am dogging officials. I am grateful for the job they do. I am dogging the way the girl's program is treated - you can not tell me that you would not have to agree with that!?!

hmmmm......there just might be some truth to that though! :-\

Number five is a biggee this year so far!!!

I am not sure that that would bring more fans early to watch the girls and, sometimes I can guess why. Not enough good games to keep the interest of those used to watching boys basketball. Unfortunately, not all girl's games have the intensity of ,say, HJ and OF - if fans show up for this game, they see basketball. If they show for a game like HJ had with Silsbee, the stands empty quickly. After several times of Silsbee sitting back mid court just dribbling.......zzzzz....the whole section of boys disappeared. Most guys find girl's basketball boring and a lot of teams prove them right. Having back to back varsity games would certainly simplify life though.

The bit about covering what sells....I am not sure about that always. For example, Monday night , HJ boys playing at home against Milburn Academy - everyone knew that this game would be a total bore. Home fans did not turn out,etc...But, one of the local stations sent out a camera crew??? Explain that? I am certainly not saying that the boys should not get the coverage ( I have a vested interest in that ), just does not make sense.

HJ has not played Ozen

and, there you have it...coach bashing at it's best!!! :'(

about the difference in the girl's basketball program and the boy's? I will start it off. Why in the world can the girl's not get the "top" officials even every once in a while? Heck, sometimes it is a good thing if two happen to even show up. And under levels...how many times have you played with only one or someone who just happened to be in the gym. This year I have seen some of the unbelievably worst officiating at girl's games. I know of several times when we had first year officials calling varsity games. What is the deal??? Let's hear it, what is yours, I know of several of you just bursting at the seams to go off on this topic.

Good luck with that, heck even the boy's board is dull today. Maybe when we get to the heat of the season, it will pick up...oh, wait, we are there - COME ON PEOPLE!!!

Bleed, you are supposed to be in bed!

why would HJ need to make excuses after a 25 point win?

Fair enough!

Not at all!!! I totally agree with you about BC - I was referring to your comments to the HJ guy about complementing WOS (and WB). Somehow you see this as some sort of excuse. The score against WOS could have been higher - some class was shown by playing the entire bench. HJ does not need to make excuses, they are doing fine on their own!

Oh, you flocked - "sometimes it is hard to make easy shots...." (I need to learn how to use the whole quote thing)

Hmmmphh... Birds of a feather!!!

So, Bleed, let me get this straight - suggesting that you guys " should've scored 80..." is somehow better than giving your opponent credit??? Talk about same song!!!
