Quick question: what area are most of the AP voters from? 

 

 

Side note: I've witnessed teams win state with not a single individual being on the AP all-state team. Its kinda like their polls: weird. 

 

Also remember this is based off regular season, I highly doubt any of those DFW AP folk came to our area during that timeframe.

Im sure by February WOS will be all over the TXSPW all state team which includes regular season and playoff games . This happened last year as well (a poor representation of setx players on the ap all state team ) , to say the kid from silsbee is an HM qb when he played the same amount of games as the kid from liberty and put up numbers that was  far better than the Texarkana kid that made 1st team. Epler threw for 5,000 yards and 71 tds in 16 games last year . Dt had a total similar and all he got was an hm when that got eppler player of the year (offensive) and dt played in 14 games . Setx gets no respect

AP State is normally around the large cities, and the "suburbs" of them. When you get to Houston, its like they completely stop looking after the Trinity. Was that way when I played. We were loaded with D1 talent, had a bunch go D1. We would get every award possible except for AP all state.

The All-State team is such a joke anyway. Voters don't see the majority of athletes play. Awards are given by who you know and other political reasons. The Mustangs have not really been challenged in district or the playoffs, but they do not have one player on 1st or 2nd team? It's frustrating, but I wouldn't put any stock into All State teams being an accurate representation of the best players in the state. Results do not lie. 

Good luck WOS.

Finish it.

I voted for this the last few years when I was at the Enterprise. I don't love it, it's tough to vote on so few players in every classification. In most cases all you have to go off of stats. And if two kids have similar stats, I'm sure the writers from different areas will go with whoever they know better, or their local kid. The TSWA system is better because it also incorporates the playoffs. But there's no perfect system.

Also, I'm not sure how Dontre Thomas only got honorable mention. I feel like his regular season stats were still just as good or better than he guy that made 1st team.

Great to be recognized, but that's the reason I always told my boys not to look for affirmation from outside. If you know who you are, that's all that matters. J/S

Not sure I understand the reason, and I can't speak for these young men but I would be willing to bet that they would gladly trade this recognition to be playing in NRG this weekend.  Congrats to WOS for being there and good luck to yall representing Region III and SETX.  It is nice, however, for Shepherd athletes to be recognized after a great season.

In my eyes the Bridge City linebacker should be a allstater no doubt. 

there still is a chance he can make it in February when txsw picks their team . Its a lot of players from the area that needs to get recognized.  Im hoping Kendrick King from HF makes all state . He should have gotten at least HM all state last year , we will see what 2207 yards and 41 tds will get you . I see it wasnt enough for bmt enterprise and i know pa news super team is gonna overlook him . Kendrick King is one of the most disrespected players in the area . His numbers the last 3 years speaks for itself , especially in the setx region . If he went to the "bigger schools"  and put up the numbers he did we wouldn't even have this conversation.

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.

      I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.

      But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling.

      Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
