Final

Argyle                          44


Argyle is your 2012 class 3A State Champion!!!
[/quote] As much as Silsbee and HJ fans LOVE their teams (even beyond reality a little bit, IMO) they must be kicking their dogs and throwing objects at their TV/computer screen. All that talent and no State appearance -- much less a trophy -- to show for it. Must really hurt.

Basketball is a funny game. As you get deeper into the playoffs the teams become more disciplined allowing teams like Argyle to advance.They have been playing this type ball for years and simply don't beat themselves.Give them their due,they did what they had to do to win it,while LeVega who beat 2 very good teams on back to back nights didn't even make the finals. It's been my experience that the beer garden is full of fans and coaches every year who were good enough to win the title.That's why you play the game.

IMO, silsbee/hj runs argyle into the ground.
[/quote] Here's the test of sentiment overriding reality: Someone saying "we woulda beat ____________," regardless of the facts. And that same person NEVER EVER says, "even though we beat __________ , we shouldn't have." In fact, such a person is so completely blinded by sentiment that the thought never even OCCURS to them. The true test of a homer, and virtually 100% of HJ and Silsbee fans on here qualify. And not recognizing that in yourself is confirmation. Again, you all qualify. Face it, y'all got beat by a better team. Live with it. Its not that hard to recognize, just hard to admit. ESPECIALLY on this board.

Okay, we get the point.  This is the update thread for the state tournament.  Let's stick to that.

    • I will never understand why someone cares what decisions a family makes regarding their own child? Maybe Joe Burrow learns great life lessons from burning up all his eligibility sitting behind Justin Fields at Ohio State but I’m sure him and his family feel like they made the right decision by transferring to LSU, becoming the #1 pick and now being the highest paid QB in NFL history. Same for Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield and Jalen Hurts at their first stops.    I think it was more beneficial for Reggie Branch to transfer to Crosby and end up having an opportunity to play for a state title versus staying at GCM and learning life lessons while he loses and probably doesn’t go D1 because his team is a perennial loser. If Robinson throws for 2k yards this year it’s going to be a lot better for his recruitment purposes than sitting on the bench at BH, not to mention he’s going to get significant looks because of the kids he’s on the team with and the offers/commitments they’ve already made. He’s not being taught to run from competition, he’s being taught to gamble on himself just like all those other guys I mentioned did. 
    • You have found Utopia. I live in the real world.
    • Every Yuppie wants one.  Give me a V-8 with loud pipes, and they can have their electric vehicles.  Was working a major incident one day and we had a road blocked off.  Police vehicles with lights going and a kid pulls up in a Tesla.  He - let me stress that HE is sobbing uncontrollably because he is at 5% battery life and HAS to go down the road we have blocked to get to a charging station.  He pulled over and literally threw a temper tantrum because we would not let him through.  
    • Have you noticed that it's always the libs that bring up race?  For a long time now whenever a lib is losing an argument or have nothing else to say they bring up racism.  Or something silly like institutional racism.  LOL!
    • Ha!  Whatever that means!
