Superb use of the English language and I have a feeling that the Bulldogs will capture the title again.  I tend not to get too concerned about what somebody else feels about the district we are in or who we played.  We are regularly criticized for our weak schedule but that weak schedule has not stopped us from getting to the regionals each of the last 5 years.  Based upon that result, I am getting more and more convinced ( ;D) that the coaching staff may actually know and be better qualified to handle the details than posters on this board.

If HJ's 'weak schedule has produced those outcomes, they just might know what they're doing. MOST coaches know what is best for their program, and every year (and every school) is unique.

Very interesting concept that could be somewhat valid.

Each coach will schedule as they think is best for their team.  Different philosophies work at different schools.  When you discuss the culture of HJ basketball, you are discussing a very unique subject.  There are not many places like HJ.  They have community support, tradition, very good coaches, a good youth program, administrative support, and basketball is the sport at HJ. 
The community support (culture) helps a program win, and winning gains community support or helps build the culture and from there you start obtaining a tradition. 
I do not live in HJ, but I hope to one day build a program or continue one that is highly successful, so I have did quite alot of research about HJ trying to firgure out why they are successful year after year. And I believe it is the reasons mentioned above and I am sure there are tons of other details that I do not know of.
I do believe you can be successful scheduling strong, average, or weak.  And I understand the philosophies behind each.  I do think you can schedule strong and be successful even if you lose some in pre-district.  I went to Troup 2AA, which was pretty good in the late 80's-90's, and our pre-district schedule was always brutal.  We were 10-11 going into district one year, but we had lost to (6) 5A's, (4) 4A's, and (1) 3A.  Our 10 wins were against 5A, 4A, and one game against a 1A. We won all 14 district games and won the next 18 losing in the regional final game.  We had a 148 district game winning streak over a 10 year period, and regional appearances, and state titles.
Coaches know the heartbeat of their program, and schedule how they believe will be the most successful over the course of the season.  To argue against a team or a coach's scheduling that wins year after year is pissing in the win (pun intended).

I will be there.  However, since the Gestapo may very well be monitoring all of your communications, I choose not to reveal my plans on attending and how I will be adorned.  Am currently looking into the possibility of renting a helicopter so as to avoid harrassment as soon as I enter the city limits. ( Is the Gestapo a leftist organization?)

I was just saying you can schedule different ways and be successful.  I think Coach Sutherland and Coach Davis know how to schedule best for their team.  The proof is in the pudding.

Dove- Are you serious?  Do you sometimes say things on this board that you don't really mean?
[/quote]I say things on here totally opposite about what I mean and the other half I do mean. ;)

NEVER NEVER EVER make the mistake of suggesting that the Dove does not, at all times, know exactly what is going on.  On this board, he is a man amongst boys, from an intellectual standpoint.

No comparison. Obama has made more than one mistake. Unless you consider him running for Prez in the first place to be his "one" mistake. ;)
