local rankings


Recommended Posts

I was going to do one, but I didn't want to have to read about what people thought of them - so I decided not to.  With the lack of support the girls basketball gets on this site I didn't see a point.  I don't know where all the fans are.  We have so many fans on the boys basketball, it's pretty sad.  I would think with all the ranked teams in the area there would be more talk on here......

I think the rankings would help promote a little more traffic on this side of the site.
I would say top 5 are
1. Ozen
2. PAM
3t. Central
3t. HJ
3t. BH

Sadly, the "build it and they will come" is only in the movies...or at least it definitely does not apply to girls' high school athletics.  Last year and the year before, the girls basketball forum was replete with rankings, standings, schedules and individual game threads.  However, because of other commitments, my availabilty on the board has become a bit more limited and thus priorities have to be set.  And sadly, those priorities have to follow where the traffic IS currently flowing, not where some think traffic could flow.

I hate it because there are some good die hard lady fans such as the Barbers Hill bunch, and to some extent the Vidor and Ozen followers, as well as fans like tjcfan08 and 94feet, but folks this is simply not enough.  You want more?  You gotta show more.

I try to keep up with as much as I can, I have zero people who text and tell me scores and harldy anyone updates their threads.  It's sad.

Grad is right.  I have been involved in the rankings the past few years, but it has become too difficult to get accurate rankings when we can't even get scores.  If we could get scores weekly then rankings would not be a problem.  It's bad enough that we can't even get all the schedules.  I've emailed coaches and schools and some will not respond.  The ladies deserve better than that!

    • To clarify, Dems love wars. They rage daily in the bluest of blue inner citicis. Chicago had 39 shootings over the weekend, 9 dead. Warzone. Baltimore, Memphis, Detroit, etc. I am sure was just as bloody. The blue body count rises daily. I am sure the blue defunding of police and releasing murders without any bail have nothing to do with it. Right?   
    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.
