West Orange Stark vs Yates


BADSANTA

Recommended Posts

WOS seems to be kind of bipolar.  There are the "got it together" Mustangs and if they show up tonight they will win by double figures.  Then there are the  "pretty much a mess" Mustangs and if they show up they will probably be blown out. 

The "got it together"  Mustangs lost the 2nd ranked team by only 3 and beat the 11th ranked team by 16. 

The "pretty much a mess" Mustangs lost 3 of their last 6 regular season games losing to every good team they played.  The 3 wins were unimpressive and included a 2 point win over Lumberton and 4  point win over Vidor.  

I hope the "got it together" Mustangs show up because a quarterfinal between WOS and Silsbee at the Montagne would awesome.

Is Yates as good they normally are or is this a down year?

They are a good team and imo could be ranked at the low end of the top 20.  But it is a down year.  They had an off recruiting season.  Booker T Washington stole their best prospects.  

I'm being facetious of course.  Washington is an attractive option for kids in HISD.  They have a brand new campus and an a fine art magnet program.  No surprise that it might attract kids from all over the community.

Yates has several very interesting magnet programs including maritime logistics.  They have a simulator lab that's like the bridge of a ship.

I support the magnet and charter schools concept.  It just seems unfair that they can draw from huge urban talent pool for athletics.  Not surprisingly considering the demographics of Texas it impacts basketball.  But if it's good for the kids' educational prospects I can live with it.

    • He's steadily improving rapidly. Not that your opinion matters much based on some of the wild projections you've made on this site 
    • Cohen……a lying, backstabbing pos who does nothing but lie every time he opens his mouth. Let him utter words the prosecution wants to hear, and we can convict. Cohen told his ex advisor that he wanted to kill himself. What a worldly loss that would be. Let anyone on this board be put through the wringer with false charges and lies like Trump has had to endure, and you would be screaming at the top of your lungs how illegal all of this is.
    • It was and remains perfectly timed and choregraphed Kangaroo Court, whatever Cohen just said or lied about.  Face it, under Soros installed Biden and Merrick Garland, the USA is now officially a Bananna Republic with a Goverment that weaponizes itself against and destroys its political rivals. Putin and Xi are SO proud!  Dang I miss Democracy.       
    • I haven’t been watching closely, but even the liberal sources even tell the story as “the defense really took apart Cohen’s testimony on Thursday.” It sounds like sloppy work from the prosecution to point out a specific call as being “the one,” when it was easily concluded that this particular call could not have occurred the way that Cohen (and the prosecution) claim it to have happened.    The bad news is that I doubt that it matters much-I suspect that most jurors minds were closed before testimony started.   I don’t see Trump leaving with anything less than a conviction based on the venue (NYC).
    • Tough case all the way around.  The guy had a lot of online activity come out where he made racist statements and statements about killing BLM protesters and looters.  So when he then goes out and does it, it looks really bad.  I've seen a lot of videos where people have driven through protestors, defended themselves against them, etc., and didn't bat an eye.  This feels different, but that doesn't necessarily make it murder, either.  His account of the events that happened vs. the witness accounts were both very different, but I'd also expect both sides' accounts to be self-serving and inaccurate to fit their narrative.  Not really sure what to think on this one.
