Lumberton 61 Bridge City 45/FINAL


Recommended Posts

  • AggiesAreWe changed the title to Lumberton 61 Bridge City 45/FINAL

Big win for the Raiders who just locked up 3rd place and a date with Hamshire Fannett or less likely HJ.  If they play that whole game like they the first half against Silsbee last Tuesday the Raiders have a shot at the second round.    

Bridge city will meet Jasper on Friday to decide 4th place in the district.  They'll have to play better than this to win but they can do it.

I agree, Jasper will win it at home in a squeaker. 
 

Neither of these is immune to an upset and I am discounting Vidor and WOS in the role of spoilers next Tuesday.  Vidor pushed Jasper to overtime in a tournament.  WOS and they lost to BC by only 3 last time.  Whoever wins the Jasper/BC matchup shouldn't count their chickens because somebody may steal the eggs first.

Interesting tidbit.  Vidor and WOS each have only one win in district.  Vidor beat WOS 67-63 in Vidor and WOS beat Vidor 67-63 in Orange.

What a down year for WOS. Didn't Vidor beat Ozen one year in district. Maybe around 2008 or something like that.

Just for the matter of accuracy, it wasn't Vidor who pushed Jasper to OT in that tourney game. Vidor had a 25 point lead at one time in that game and led the entire game right up to the final 45 seconds. Jasper is the one that sent the game to overtime.

Vidor really had no business losing that game. I will say they have probably digressed the most of all the teams in the district from the first of the season.

Has the Raiders surprised you this year bullets??

Not really.  They surprised me last year.  This year they’re about where I thought they’d be.  A .500ish record and a low playoff seed.  If someone had asked before the season (and it might be in writing on the site), I woulda had them 4th or 5th, and it looks like the most likely result is gonna be the 4-seed, unless vidor pulls an upset.  If they beat HJ or HF in the first round then they will have surprised me.  BC surprised me the most this season.  After going 1-11 in district last year, and 12-23 overall, for them to have a winning record and a shot at the 4th playoff spot going into their last game is impressive.

I’ve really been trying to be more positive on here.  I didn’t say anything negative, incorrect, or insulting.  You asked if I was surprised (in some effort to call me out, I guess?).  I’m not surprised.  They went 17-16 with an inarguably soft schedule, and most likely will finish 4th in a 7 team district, and will most likely bow out in the 1st round of the playoffs.  I could’ve predicted that 6 months ago.  What am I supposed to do here?  Pretend I’m surprised, and that they’ve had some master class of a season?  They’ve had an okay season.  I can’t make it into something it’s not.  Good for them for getting back to the playoffs.  For what it’s worth, they would’ve likely finished 4th and made the playoffs in our other local 4A district as well, so credit to them for becoming more competitive the last several years.

4 really bad teams on the schedule that’s soft? That’s about the same as your boy at HJ

    • I’ve stated over and over that I don’t think that the hush money trial has merit. I also don’t think that the fraud/appraisals case in NYC had merit, either. I think that the evidence in the Election Tampering case down in Georgia is pretty damning, and the case about mishandling documents down in Florida is a real problem for Trump… because that’s what intelligent people do-look at the facts make sound decisions not based on their pwecious feewings.  You know, just saying “Bah! It’s all a bunch of lies because I love him!” Or “of course he did it! I hate him.” But thought processes are something most people are incapable of. They only manage to scroll social media for posts that validate their own opinions and them off as truth or fact when they are just outright lies… but they make the re-poster feel good inside so he believes them without question.    Every time I soundly refute the  idea that trump was good for the economy, y’all yell “but COVID!” His tax cuts provided a short term bubble in the economy by way of an exploding deficit and debt that our grandkids will still be paying interest upon 50 years from now even prior to COVID.  It’s like when Mama takes over the family finances, maxes out all of the credit cards and drives the family into bankruptcy.  Y’all would be the spoiled brat, immature and stupid children that spout off “things were so much better when Mom was handling the finances! We had everything we wanted! Put her back in charge!” Anybody that says “Trump was good for the economy” is just letting they world known that they don’t understand micro/macro economics or the effects of rising interest rates have on a debt the size of ours.    What none of you seem to realize is that the problems were facing today (interest rates and inflation) would be occurring even if Trump were in office because his fiscal policies are more flawed than either conservatives or liberals.    Libs: we should raise taxes on the rich and spend more! Conservatives: We should cut taxes on everybody but cut spending!   Trump: We’re gonna cut taxes and spend more!    It’s a recipe for pure disaster. He’s literally the guy who says “we’re gonna buy high, sell low, and make it up in volume!”    
    • The problem our buddy @CardinalBacker has is that the Dems have been cheating Trump since before his inauguration.  There's 4 cheats going on right now against a private citizen.  But yet he wants us to believe that the 2020 election was squeaky clean.  No cheating what so ever.  That a brain dead individual got 81 million votes.  But the other guy that was supposed to be so bad got 74 million, the most any President ever got for reelection.  Evil people don't turn on and off their evil cheating ways.

    • You just analogized to a tee the situation going on with the Trump New York trial. And I bet you can't even see the hypocrisy elicited out of your hatred. You once again outed yourself...without any realization of your actions. I'm not sure if Reagan actually set you up to expose your blatant hypocrisy, or if it was just a happy coincidence. You seem to thrive on humiliating yourself. Now get to work on providing that evidence of your emphatic declarations that Trump's economy was horrible. You failed miserably before, I bet you will again.
