Will Central Dominate Their District (Like HJ in the old days)?


BLUEDOVE3

Recommended Posts

Central won district last year...errr shared district (  ::) ), beat Jack Yates in a scrimmage league game,won district again (?) this year, ranked consistently the whole year in Texas throughout the season.
Is it finally time for the [s]doubters [/s] naysayers to go ahead and finally admit Central is the real deal and a team to measure the bar of success?

Now, if Central doesn't make it to State, will this be considered a failed season among their fans. And if so, why? And if Central is to get to Austin, they gotta eventually get through Nederland.

I would like some clarification on some you guys answers of "No". Is it to the question in the title of the thread or to the other questions that Dove put in the first post of this thread?

Title question: Will Central dominate district?

Post questions: Is Central the real deal? If they do not make Austin, is it a failed season?

Last I checked, you earn respect by winning, right? Central has won district two years straight, so they have DESERVED the respect, IMO. They are the real deal, and should be the measuring stick for SETX. They will probably win district the next two years, but I suspect they will lose a game or two each year, so they will not dominate 20-4A. I predict at least one of the next two years to be a 'co-championship'.

They should be the favorite to make it to regionals. What happens there is up in the air; anything can happen. As young as they are, failing to reach state would not be considered a failure, IMO. However, many of their fans EXPECT them to win state this year. IF they do, great, but I don't see how people EXPECT a state title from them.

Some people believe anything less than a state championship is a failure. I am not one of them, but everyone has a right to their opinion. Most of these kids will not earn a living in basketball, and that's a simple fact. As long as the kids give it their all, who cares what the naysayers think?! ;)

One question. Why should they be the measuring stick for SETX just based on these last two seasons?

[/quote]They are clearly the beat team in the area this year, and they bring 95% of their team back next yr. For at least the next two seasons, they will likely be the best team in SETX, so they will make for a good measuring stick, IMO.

I'm going to go a bit further and predict that no team for 20-4A will make it to regionals this year
[/quote]Are you related to DV somehow? h
ow much would you like to bet on that prediction? I wouldn't be surprised if 2 teams make it.

With the results of several games this year by the better teams in the area,  I am not sure there is a clear best team in the area...too many A beat B, B beat C, A beat C or bad losses at times all of these teams.

Ozensfinest is overly bitter.  Dude, let it go.  It's a bad look for you.
[/quote]bitter about what Soulja? I'm just realistic 20-4A is just a WEAK district Central MAY make it but coaching will probably end of getting them in the end.
[/quote]
Yeah your bitter. Bitter that your team got beat by Ned and central. Bitter that Ozen isn't paying the refs enough to buy a dc. Yeah your definitely bitter. Just like little old Dickie.

    • 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. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
    • It’s actually sad that he’s so in your head that you continually create these stupid analogies.
    • I get called way worse all of the time… and it doesn’t matter to me.    But it’s like this…. Let’s say you have a favorite football team-maybe the Cowboys. As a diehard fan, you whole-heartedly believe that the Cowboys are the best team in the NFL every year… would it make it sense to cash in your IRAs and borrow every dime you could borrow against your home and bet it all on the Cowboys to win the Super Bowl this year? That would be letting your devotion and affection for your team make a really bad choice that will have negative consequences of your plan doesn’t work out.    That’s kinda like sticking with Trump when he keeps losing and shows no sign of winning this year.  But at least you can proudly boast that you were DC4L.
