Yes.  If Kirbyville beats Buna then Hardin's 7-4 record will carry a little more substance.  Not by much...but yes.  It's hard for me to overlook all of these 0-9 and 1-8 wins (soon to be 0-10 and 1-9

The problem with that is that you get 3 and 4 seeds winning their first-round games every year.  As much as I hate to say it..that kind of justifies it a little bit.  Even if it doesn't always happen.

Is the coach still the town hero?

Oh, I'm sure.  Playoff shirts seem to be the indicator of a good season these days..especially to the mob (fans).  Don't get me wrong...Hardin surpassed my expectations as well as everyone else's I'm sure but that doesn't negate the fact that their only wins came against bad teams.  I never dreamed Orangefield and Kirbyville would've been as bad as they were this year.  Granted...OF lost their QB at a pretty bad time and from what I understand that completely changed the offense.  I'm glad for the sake of the Hardin kids that they got to win some games and taste success but the last 3 games of the season aren't going to be fun for any of them.  Other than getting to play at a neutral location late in the season.  Make no mistake, Buna will be a worse team than the next two coming up by far.  Hoping for an injury free experience for all.

Who's being a critic?  Look through Hardin's schedule and look for yourself how their opponents have done over the season.  Several of the teams they've beat have won ZERO games this year.  Several others have won 1, or 2, maybe 3... The only teams they've played with a winning record have beaten them 57-7 and 70-14.  I'm sorry if facts are offensive to some people but they're still facts.

I've said several times that I'm very happy for the kids and community at Hardin that they have more Ws in the column than Ls.  That's fun.  But...that doesn't mean that they are a good team it just means that they've had a good year.  There is a difference.  Am I happy for them? Ecstatic.  Will I agree that they are good/improved/better?  No.  It takes more than a 7-4 record for ONE SEASON to convince me of that.  There are too many variables.  There's a reason that Boise State never gets to play for a National Title even when they have an undefeated season.

What does it say about our current UIL playoff system when we're talking about playoff locations and a 70-14 loss to a third place team in the same thread. I'm glad the Hardin club got to experience 7 wins, my hometown club hasn't won 7 games in years. My question is what's wrong with our playoff format?

My opinion is that it should have never expanded past two teams from each district...

      Trump Running in 2024

      By Reagan · Posted

      I hear ya.  Under normal circumstances I feel you would have a point.  But,  I feel people are not as stupid as the Dems thinks they are.  Americans see the bogus charges for what they are.  They see that Trump never had a conviction before he ran for President and now after he ran he has 91 convictions.  But the Dems are in a tight spot.  This lawfare is not working.  All the attacks before did not work.  So, what do they have left?  They have a doddering old fool.  They put a silly cackler in as VP to have Joebama impeachment proof.  So, how would they get rid JoeBama and bypass the cackler?  There only hope, as I see it, is that Joebama wins and a week after inauguration he resigns and then look what happens!  This is the only way out I see for them.  Not sure if the debates are going to happen, but if they do, it'll be interesting to see how bad JoeBama really is.  It must be bad, though, because they won't release the interview tapes from the Hurr report.

      Let’s all pray that this upcoming season will be a great one and that all players will stay as healthy as possible. We all know (or should) that we’re talking about kids so no matter what team that you support, to ensure that we’re being as encouraging and uplifting as we can be as grown (oftentimes immature) adults.    Staying true to the subject topic, it should be a competitive game against Woodville & Fig Newton. I’d venture to say that the winner of this game will most definitely be crowned the district champs.
