Silsbee will face a couple of tests.  Yates and whoever comes out of dallas.  Both of those teams are capable of beating them... a favorite against them?  No.  but certainly capable.  Silsbee can't overlook anyone.  They're favorites against anyone in the state, but in years past, when in the same situation, they've lost to teams that weren't anywhere near as good as yates or the dallas schools are this year.  Granted, Silsbee is better, too, but they have to stay grounded and not let the hype go to their head.

This is the best Silsbee team ever. Again, My opinion

I totally agree.  But before this year, last year's team was probably the best silsbee team ever, and they didn't play a great game in the finals and a team that IMO they were better than beat them. The same could happen this year.  But I'm rooting like crazy for them, and hope to see them bring a title back to setx.

I wouldn't say the best ever. When they had D.C. and Prentice Lane and all them. They would kill this team on the boards easily. Someone like Barnes or Jones couldn't stop DC. 

That's tough but I do believe this team is too deep.  It would be fun to see.

No sir. Not even close. And I was on the squad with D.C. And Peti when they were sophomores lol this is a much better team. Way deeper bench. Three maybe four division 1 basketball players on the team.

Brady is correct...... This team is better than any team I've watched in the past

I think the main difference is that this team has more very good basketball players who truly understand the game...vs....very good athletes playing basketball (not to say that there weren't any really good basketball players on those past teams. Just not as many).

Level of competition is a big factor. Still don't see what y'all see. Back then they were way more physical 

Only thing we had over this team was height. This team is very physical though, now the game is getting more weak every year around the world. That is every sport though. Our 1st 5 might be able to stick around with this years 1st 5... But when the fresh legs came in, we would die lol

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      By Englebert · Posted

      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.
