I've seen a couple threads about who will win 21-3A, and i think the obvious answers to that question is either HJ or Silsbee.  I think barring injuries or grades both of those teams should have no problem making the playoffs.  So really you are just arguing about who is better when both will likely be in the playoffs anyway.  I think the more intriguing question really is who will be the 3rd playoff team from this district.  Everyone seems to think WOS and Jasper will be very good, and Orangefield has a good young team (although they might be a year away) and possibly a darkhorse.  But what do yall think?  Who of these 4 do you like the most?  I would like to hear some analysis from those familiar with this district...

Now that we've seen these teams play a few games now and can get a read a little bit on how good these teams are, i thought we should revisit this topic.  Now i know it still might be a little early to say how good Jasper, WOS, and Kirbyville are since their football just ended.  But how many guys from the football team contribute a lot to the bball team from WOS and Jasper?  I heard only a couple guys from WOS that play football play bball, not sure about Jasper and Kirbyville though.  If anyone can answer that question, feel free to post that here.  So WOS played Nederland a couple times now and lost by 20+ and Orangefield just beat Nederland in Nederlands gym.  Not to mention, they already beat Bridge City(who questioned why they werent on this poll???)  I said Orangefield was a good darkhorse candidate and i think that is looking good right now.  I havent seen really any Jasper  scores to date so not real sure about them, i guess i could say the same for Kirbyville...

Anyways, what are yalls thoughts now? Who do you like of the 4 teams contending? Rank the teams in order of how you think they will finish for the final playoff spot (assuming HJ and Silsbee gets 1-2).

    • We'll see. I don't trust us. 
    • Starting pitching has been shaky the last few weeks due to some injuries outside of Hagen Smith.  He goes tomorrow, so y’all should be fine 
    • Manchin may get it but any mention of the radical left that wanted to get rid of the filibuster and end almost 220 years of history because the Democrats are mad?  The House and Senate are obviously different legislative bodies with entirely different election processes and rules for a reason. The House can vote on laws with a simple majority vote. The Senate put rules in place that it would make it much tougher to pass laws. Laws should be difficult to pass. The Senate is often the holdup of the right and left. It takes 60 votes to break the filibuster so any law will almost certainly require agreement at least in part, from opposing sides of an issue. Because they can’t get laws passed, the radical left is like a baby having a tantrum and wants to change over 200 years of history and make it potentially ridiculously easy to pass laws. I have seen current poll maps and it is possible for the Republicans to sweep into complete power in November but by the tiniest margin. That would possibly mean that a single vote margin in both houses could enact what you might call the radical right laws. There would be nothing that the Democrats could do to stop any legislation whatsoever if the left (they are all radical, minus Manchin) got their filibuster rule changed.  That is where the current filibuster comes into play as any new law would require several Democrats to agree with the majority Republicans and vice versa.  Do you want the potential for your radical right to have free rein as the radical left wants by killing the filibuster or is the radical left just as (if not more) dangerous? Let’s see if we have a history in this area? Oh yeah, the Democrats changed the rules in the Senate to allow federal judges to not have to overcome the filibuster. Obama was not getting his federal judge nominations passed and being angry, they changed the rules instead of nominating more moderate justices. They were warned that it would come back to bite them. They didn’t care and chose the nuclear option to change the rules. Oops! Any guess how Trump got all of his Supreme Court nominees passed against strong Democrat opposition? The Democrats got rid of the filibuster for federal judges after another tantrum   So when you are so worried about the radical right, are you equally concerned in what the radical left is always doing by changing rules and history which were put into place just for situations like we are in? So while Manchin gets it, what about his other 50 colleagues (49 + Harris)?  What concerns you more, Abbott and Paxton or the Democrats who want to make it to where if the Republicans do take over, they can go wild… at least in your mind? 
    • MODS please remove that ISD twitter link! I had no idea it would copy the whole posting. I only highlighted the portion about the venue change. Sorry about that!
