Yea but half of Martinsvilles games are vs teams like Gary, apple springs and centerville, Burkeville came out of the toughest district in the region, and IMO idt Martinsville is any better than leggett or spurger or even goodrich. So Bkv has the edge in this one

I'm failing to understand the argument here.  How can you criticize Martinsville's predistrict schedule, when outside of Silsbee, the 2 best teams Burkeville played before district were in Martinsville's district.  Burkeville lost to Kennard and # 9 Wells, and they lost to #9 Wells by 30 pts (74-45).  Kennard was the 4th place team in Martinsville's district.  Burkeville also lost to Broaddus who Wells beat by 30 pts.  Did I mention that Martinsville beat Wells once in district?  Kennard took Wells to overtime and Chireno, the 3rd place team in Martinsville's district, beat Martinsville on feb 15.  With 2 top 10 ranked teams, I think you could make the argument that 23-1A-II is just as good as 24-1A-II.  18-1A-II may have been the toughest district of all of them though with #4 Dodd City, Roxton, and Miller Grove (plus Ector who MG had to beat in a playoff).  I would not call Martinsville's schedule weak either.  They beat Tenaha (who just beat 3A Center) who won 22-1A-I and has be ranked and could be in the regional tournament.  They played Tenaha (22-1A-I), Woden (22-2A), Gary(22-1A-I), Elysian Fields (20-2A), who are all playoff teams and only lost to Woden.  I would speculate Martinsville is pretty close one way or another to the top 4 in 24-1A-II but I dont know how you could give Burkeville the edge by any measurement or standard given.

Beeninnikes, if ya wanna get all technical with it here u go: Burkeville BEAT Leggett twice, Leggett beat chireno by 25 points i believe, Chireno beat Martinsville IN Martinsville, also Burkeville defeated Hemphill 76-55, Martinsville beat Hemphill 40-33. SO, u cant go by that stuff, district 24-A II was a tougher district than 23-A II, IMHO

Ok you say we cant go by that stuff. We'll go by something else. Martinsville is #8 and Wells is #9. Where is Spurger, or Leggett, or Goodrich, or BURKEVILLE?? If im not mistaken(which im not), then none of them are state ranked. Actually Spurger and Leggett were ranked but performed in a way that obviously did not impress the voters on TABC. Martinsville has been climbing steadily.

Not sure what ShowOuts description of "team basketball is", but having watched Burkeville play four times, EVERTHING goes through #23. Everthing. If he doesn't have a shot, he will launch it up and hope that someone will pick up the trash. Even if he is well past the three point line. He will force up a shot hopeing to draw fouls as he is a good free throw shooter. The others are there to support him.

If Martinsville puts someone on his front bumper and prevent him from getting the ball, Burkeville will most definitely lose.

      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.
