POST CANCELLATIONS AND RESCHEDULING HERE!


Recommended Posts

If we get 4 inches of rain as some people are predicting, I doubt many teams will be playing tomorrow.  What is the rule on when district makeup games have to be played? 


I thought it has to be made up on the first available date and before the next game, but I could be wrong.

All the more reason why to have bumped the games up to yesterday. Just didn't understand why not move them up a day. This forecast has been out for three days now.

I heard that we tried. But there is some kind of rule that everyone in the district has to agree. Not sure if this is true or not , maybe one of you uil experts could help on that.

Each district is different on this rule.  I imagine such a deep district would have this rule.

Yes, all members must approve any game changes. (In theory at least.)

The only provision in the UIL rules regarding dates the games are played is making up a game and that is that the game must be rescheduled on the first date (not including Sunday) that there is not another district game scheduled.

The UIL baseball manual does not speak to moving games up.  The provision that all members of a district must agree is probably a rule created by the district executive committee and that committee is certainly allowed to make such rules.

Well, I guess my question would be which school didn't think moving the games up was not a good idea?

And for that school will be real short when they have to go Thursday-Friday or Friday-Saturday for these games.

Baseball is the one sport you cannot change games on because you "think" it may rain.It can create an unfair situation regarding pitching......example      say livingston has png and lcm on tue  fri..90%chance of rain in liv on tue so they play monday...meanwhile lcm plays tue..now on friday livingstons #1 has 1 more day of rest than lcms......this happened last year with lcm and vidor and it didnt even rain on tuesday

There was no "think" about it.  The certainty that it was going to have severe weather on Tuesday was in every forecast from Houston to the state line since late last week.  Now, the coaches with the deepest staffs have the advantage because some pitchers that haven't pitched since the second week of the season (because remember, the 3rd tourney for most teams were rained out) will be pressed into duty due to the fact that they are now playing games on consecutive days.

That is a better situation?

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
