Good Luck to all the players and coaches. You guys have given us all plenty to talk about this year. Thank You.

Hey Pimp Smack and Scalp 'em, just curious. What possibly could BH have done to you personally, for both to use such vitriolic language against the Hill. I think anybody on the Hill worth their salt would recognize PNG's stellar past and bright future. As for as Lumberton, well, sorry I don't know that much about that program's history other than I'm sure it's a class act. I do know the Hill's history and although they haven't had a state title since '78, they have been one of the more consistently winning teams in the area. It's one thing to talk smack, pump your team up, and so forth. How about a little class from a couple of fellas from some class organizations. It's ok to think and to say the Hill is overrated, but c'mon guys, give the Hill some credit!!

Hunter: labor union may take action on techs ruleAssociated Press NEW YORK -- Now, NBA players are fed up with what's happening after the whistle. With technical foul calls nearly doubled compared to the same point last season, union director Billy Hunter wants commissioner David Stern to lighten up on the NBA's crackdown on complaining -- or he might even seek legal action against the league. Players are fined for every technical foul they receive, and there were 122 of them called through the first 51 games of the season, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. There were 66 through 50 games last season. "You say you want to deter it, curtail that kind of conduct on the court and now it's kind of dipped down so the slightest little inclination ... a guy throws his hands up, the refs are now calling a tech," Hunter said. "So I really think it's incumbent upon the commissioner to kind of tell the referees, instruct them they got to back off a little bit." And if he doesn't? "I think what may ultimately happen if it continues to occur is we will probably be compelled to bring an unfair labor practice action or something," Hunter told The Associated Press. "Try to seek some relief, at least to have the issue either heard or at least elevated so that it gets a lot more public attention than it's currently getting." It has received plenty already. It had to share the spotlight with the controversy over the new game ball during the preseason, but the issue moved to the front once the real games started and teams began realizing the impact it was having on them. Denver and Sacramento lost their leading scorers when Carmelo Anthony and Mike Bibby were ejected from their season openers. Rasheed Wallace wasted no time getting tossed, but even well-mannered players such as Dwyane Wade and Tim Duncan have been hit with technicals along the way, as has Kobe Bryant. So much for special treatment for the superstars, which is the way the league planned it. "What the referees were instructed to do was apply the rule across the board without regard to individual players," executive vice president of operations Stu Jackson said. "They're instructed to apply the rule fairly with all players and call what they see." The NBA made the post-whistle actions a point of emphasis when Stern grew tired of watching players overreact, verbally and physically, after calls went against them. It's been called a "zero-tolerance" policy, which the league objects to. But that's exactly the way it feels to many players. "It's crazy because guys are so passionate about the game," Hornets guard Chris Paul said. "I know myself, it's not that you're always trying to show the ref up, it's just your emotions. You're playing a game that you love and at times you may express it different ways." And it's more than just allowing a free point on a foul shot that bothers the players. A technical also hits them in the wallet: Players are fined $1,000 for each of their first five technicals, an amount that increases by $500 for each five after that, capped by a $2,500 penalty for each one starting with the 16th. A one-game suspension also comes at that point and for every other technical thereafter. "We talk to the ballplayers, we kind of empathize with them," Hunter said. "We understand the circumstances, understand how they feel, how they feel it negatively impacts their game." Coaches have said they are OK with the policy as long as officials show good judgment and are consistent. Players worry about getting whistled for a natural reflex in a key situation. "It's kind of hard to keep your emotions down when you play a game like basketball and keep them totally wrapped up," Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said. "Too many referees have rabbit ears and very thin skin. And until they realize that they're not perfect, they can't expect the players to be perfect. There has to be some kind of give-and-take there." Jackson said there is, as long as players don't overdo it. When Duncan began yelling about a clearly incorrect call that went against him Monday night in New York, the official didn't respond right away. It wasn't until Duncan kept up the argument on the next trip that the technical finally came. "This is not a zero-tolerance policy. If a player doesn't act inappropriately or make disrespectful statements on a call or a non-call, such as yelling or cursing or inappropriate physical reactions or gestures like flailing their arms, without that we'll allow players a heat of the moment reaction," Jackson said. "But when those reactions or those comments become continuous, then you're subject to receiving a technical foul." Another complaint from the players is that they lost the right to have dialogue with the referees. Officials have always been able to interact with the players as they please, and what may be a technical from one may not even warrant a reaction from another. "If you're in the league for a long time, you develop relationships with certain officials," Bryant said. "In fact, some officials I've known even since high school, because some of the officials are from the Philadelphia area." Jackson said the league has heard only a few complaints from players, but Hunter said he has received plenty of calls. He may be placing one of his own soon to Stern. "My staff is talking regularly back and forth with his staff," Hunter said. "If we think they're not being sensitive at all, it usually requires a session between myself and David. We haven't had it yet, but the way things are going, I'm sure I'll be calling him in the immediate future." Copyright 2006 by The Associated Press

Here's a few quotes I've heard over the last couple years: "...straight as the day is arrow." Coach Howard "You will run till you stop!!!" Coach Howard "Holy Toledo! You're the smartest man out here, son!" Coach Valastro "You're fired." Coach Valastro "There's only one thing that feels better than cold water after two-a-days, and I can talk to yall about that at school." Coach Koch

hey kudos to him but im tired of all this fake internet talk...im through..see ya on nov.24

Soooooooooo........... Lady_Titan21 how many points did you score the 40 something seconds you played last night That's a shame you talk all of that noise and you are a 4th quarter sub that only played less than a minute. Lumberton has a good team but when Chelsea and Courtney both had 3 fouls in the 3rd quarter the coach took them out and #30 the only girl that really scored played her game but it's gone take more than her to beat us. Yall have speed but yall need to learn how to shoot lay-ups maybe they were showing off because we were there. Can't say the same for you because you didn't get no playing time. That's the worse I ever seen Lumberton play, they could've played better but they let yall stick with them (No Way Not Happening) You spend more time on the computer than you did on the court last night :evil:

Define "best". Are you talking quantity, table fare, easy of catching, etc? Largemouth is the most popular if you are talking about money spent in pursuit of. Smallmouth, while it might be fun catching them, is almost non-existent in the deep south. Catfish is hardly a gamefish at all but maybe the most tasty in some people's opinion. They are more the type of fish that you catch more on a trotline than chase on rod and reel, although that can be fun also. People catfish when they are looking for food whereas bass fishing is more of a sport, almost like hunting. Catfish are good in that people normally don't have $40,000 catfish boats like they do for bass fishing. A guy with a cane pole can go down to a local canal and have a good chance at some cats. Try that with bass fishing...... Crappie Is likely second to bass in terms of popularity in both catching and eating. At the right times of the year, it can also be a more "relaxing" type of fishing more suited for a family doing something together rather than pounding a cove hour after hour looking for that elusive largemouth. Party boats are a good way to go crappie fishing, especially with a group of people. Try getting 3 or more people in a boat slinging lures in every direction every few seconds looking for largemouth. Talk about a sure recipe for disaster. Bream is usually the easiest to catch and pound for pound (or more likely, ounce for ounce) the strongest fish out there. The problem with bream is their diminutive size. When matched with the right tackle (especially flyrod), they can be excellent fun and it is easy for kids to learn to fish for them. In freshwater, nothing is better to teach a child to fish for than bream. They can usually get the immediate success needed to keep a child's attention and it normally doesn't take a lot of skill to master. Bring a 5 year old bass fishing for his first trip and you might put him off from fishing for the rest of his life. Best sportfish-Largemouth Ease of catching (and thereby most fun?)-Bream Best food quantity-Catfish Best for family outing-Crappie

daddy5009 .....After reading all of your posts, I see that you are fairly consistent on 2 points....1) in the majority of them you are putting someone down, 2) you talk like you are very envious and jealous of these kids. Why else would you say the things you do?! You not only badmouth them, you attack them personally. According to your posts, you graduated from OF in 2000 and now live in Kingwood.....so why are you so intent on bashing the area athletes? I'm guessing that you've never even seen Justin play, yet you talk trash on him. And what's with the "Dewkeyville" comment? And saying that our kids end up at Club 87 as bouncers? FYI: There are alot of smart kids there and this year we have a 15 yr old who was invited and accepted to Lamar. The best thing you can do for everyone here is to find a forum where the only topic is trash talking....and put all of you posts there! And somewhere along the way.....utilize your spell check PLEASE!!!

just a little info for u daddy5009 Zane Williams is not the brother of justin williams they are cousins and when deweyville played yall zane didn't play he was out with a injury so u better do some research before you start running your mouth. I'm zane williams' brother Ethan Williams #81 from deweyville and while they scrimmaged yall he was by the coaches. You better watch who u talk about on here it might come back 2 get you.

We have a coach that knows his stuff but every time he goes to talk to the kids he screws it up. Ex.- a bridge under water. We started writing them down. We call them Campbellisms.

Nice to called an idiot by a poster with such in depth research.I am still gonna back my boys.PS-I have been called much worse.If you didn't beat Anahuac I wouldn't get on here and talk to much.

"PLAYOFFS? PLAYOFFS? WE CANT WIN A GAME AND YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT PLAYOFFS? love it everytime...if you are having a bad day, just pick ole jim mora and his face when speaking those lines. truly classic "When the day is done and my time has passed, I hope they bury me upside down so my critics can kiss my ***" Love bobby knight

many people might not agree with me but i think the best team in setexas that many people dont talk about is East Chambers, they have one of the best head coaches in the state he is a provine winner at all levels, and they might have the best athletic QB in the setx, and the only bad thing about the QB is he really is a basketball player playing football

i had opportunity to play against this guy during my high school career at hf, and i must say he is an all around athlete. he's one of those guys that when he picks up a ball, he's good at that sport. football, (i guess he plays/ed basketball?), baseball, track, you name it, he is good at it. he is a good guy and he is a class act. not once did I (notice i said i, i dont speak for everyone), hear any kind of trash talk come from him, he was there to play the game, and he did and he is good at it. as previously stated by others, hope his injury gets better and he is able to go somewhere and play something, because he would be a good addition to any school's sports.

Thanks. I knew I wasn't talk crazy talk there. :roll:

This is going to be a great game. Gotta go with my boys from the HILL though. Heard GP bragging about how it's goin down like donkey kong and all I got to say about that is, we'll talk after the game. Oh, and tell your coach not to be afraid and run a few plays on 44's side. He won't hurt ya too bad!!!!!!! :wink: GO EAGLES, bring it home!!!!!!!

Back live, Cena was just started to recover as the PPV goes off the air with Federline still taunting Cena... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just wanted to say that Deweyville is a class act and should be proud of their players and coaches. Their fans are great too! Usually when I head to the press box at other schools, fans and students talk trash to me as I head up or come down after the game. Not Deweyville! Several fans stopped me as I headed down last Friday Night and congratulated me and wished the Cougars luck! That is true class. Good Luck to the Pirates in the playoffs. I hope we both get in.

Yea BHfan it's been really quite with a district championship game coming up and all. I'm just glad to live in a community where we can be hated for winning and have something to talk smack about. You have to admit though the thought of WOS vs. Liberty is VERY UGLY. :evil: I mean I hate Liberty and all but I hate to see any team give up a 100 points in a playoff game. Oh well WOS go for the record. What ever it is.

i dont hear you talking about yalls scrimmage with Lumberton. since yall lost and everyhting i wouldnt talk about it either,

:shock: Sorry about that bandsman....I honestly didn't get it and I know you didn't either....I had no clue we would step on toes with my question :shock: Only one poster explained...the whoop em beads....(or close to it), thank you! This is our first year on here....give us a break...we don't know the talk yet between "BOJO", "jewelry" etc.....we are "virgins" here, remember! Just trying to learn the lingo! :wink:

Look at how many state trophies are in the golden triangle. I think we as an area have earned it. There's a swagger that comes along with it. I'm not always talking trash, but if you read some of the posts from BH people, it makes you not really like them. Ya'll are having a good year in 4A congrats, but I don't think you've earned it yet. Go win a 4A state title and come back and talk to me.

Yeah and that is coming from a certain area of the state that does nothing but talk smack about how great they are and how strong their district is and so forth and so on. Het but you'll would know I am just glad Dayton is getting their butt handed to them in the Superior GT district :wink:

I know grades come out this Friday at NHS and I remember all the talk about losing players last time grades came out. Anybody hearing anything about maybe losing more players this time???? We are so thin at every position, if we do lose some, it might make this match-up with Lumberton more even. What do you think??

Thanks for sharing :roll: I think somebody completely underestimated the Cardinals. :shock: I think somebody should rein in their pre-game rhetoric if they aren't prepared for the post-game reality. Like I said, if you're going to talk that pre-game smack, then pony up when the final score hits the board. :wink: By the way, you guys have fun with Kville 8)
