*Silsbee 51 Wharton 47 Final/Playoffs*

Wharton team was both fast & quick last night.  They had the advantage of scouting the Cleveland game and they sure didn't share any tape of themselves with the Tigers. 

Big play by Terrence Jones in the first half (12 tough points inside) carried the Tigers; them Harper and Robinson turned it up in the second half ending with about 9 and 13 respectively.  I think Brewer had only 2 at the end, but like in the Cleveland game he came up with some big blocks and caused some bad shots by the Wharton Tigers at time.  He reminds me of how a Robert Parrish could affect shot taking inside.

Silsbee literally spilled blood in the win, as several players were scratched and marred with the tough inside play, one even suffering a broken nose.  No wonder Coach Williams took a "T" defending his players.  In the end, the players fought out a tough win for the coach that is willing to stand up for his kids.

Hoping they realize that nothing can be taken for granted, and that in the end its them against the world.

is Wharton very good, because i didn't think this one would be that close???  but i don't know much bout wharton though so thats why im asking??? any info would be nice...

Hawk - every team is now a couple of rounds into the playoffs.  All of the remaining teams are SOME good.  Wharton was the district winner in the district where West Columbia was runner up.  Did you expect your game to be that close ( 59 - 53 ) ?  No, I didn't either.  But the WIN is the WIN.  Let' just cheer 'em both on to Huntsville and then we'll show those fans a real ball game.

    • First pitch about to be in the books.
    • Chester will be the home team tonight.  Neches Tigers will be the visitors.
    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
