There will certainly be some obstacles to hurdle on the way to Austin: Navasota, Crockett, etc.; but hopefully we'll have another regional final of HJ vs. Silsbee.  How about you Tigers letting us Hawks win this time?

Admittedly, the Tigers are returning three starters along with a "Big" guy that got a lot of playing time last year and I expect them to be good.  But don't start that crying :o crying already jetski.  It's not like the Hawks don't have ANYBODY returning.  I see a scenario very much like the 2007/08 season - with one or the other advancing to Austin. 8)

I am certainly not "crying" as you suggest - I was simply trying to bring some levity to the subject.  But after taking in your reply to the post, it seems like someone has some doubts or misgivings as to what the future holds for Silsbee basketball for the 2008-2009 season.

It been a minute since I been on this site and I really miss hearing everyone opinions on all teams this year. I been following some of the team this summer for summer league basketball. Like always it anybody game on any given night so you have to bring your A game. There will be a 21-3A team representing State again this year (hopes it Silsbee). Silsbee does bring back there big guy and good group of experienced players. HJ got there duo threat it Jarvis Benard and Trey Burrell. Truly I don't think HJ has a big man but Burrell will step up and take over that leadership in the post area. Jarvis will take over the guard area too. Silsbee will still have that full court press team like they have had for years and it will be better this year too. Now Bluedove3 unless HF really got a new set of players don't really bring them in because I don't even see them running for a playoff spots this year. As a matter of fact all 3 spots are taken by now with Silsbee, HJ, and O-field. Exactly how good will O-field be this upcoming year.

I agree with Master T, Bluedove, until HF does something on the court and shows they are a competitive team in this district, then there isnt really a reason to talk about them.  Maybe there will be some day but thats just how it is now.  To answer your question Master T about Orangefield, they will be pretty good again next year.  Their 2 biggest losses were Jeremy Granger and Jared Helton, but much like HJ and Silsbee, they still have a lot coming back.  In fact, this year they have a chance to be better.  They had a strong JV team last year, and some of those guys will step in and fill roles on varsity to give them a deeper bench than last year.  I heard from one of the players that OF played Silsbee once in summer league and played them close till the end but lost.  I also heard in summer league they have beaten Nederland, LCM, Kelly, Vidor, and Legacy (sometimes without all the varsity there too).  I know a group of these kids has been playing in summer league and weekend tournaments, along with open gym.  I know HJ and Silsbee get a lot of hype on this board, but i think Orangefield will give them a run for their money again next year like they did in some games last year.

      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.

      Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
