Top Offense : WR Westin Gipson (Newton)

Yes, it is all a part of the grand scheme. I do find it interesting and patriotic that Elon Musk is asking congress to step up US oil production, which is counter-productive to his electric car industry. The world needs more conspiracy “nuts”.

Crumedy's gonna win big. It may take a couple of years, but I think we're gonna be one of the best programs in the region really soon. I love that he is demanding excellence already...

Who cares? The whole UIL is a fraud.

May as well go ahead and play FF and get it over with. Think they beat Carter by around 15. Think the dunk count for the BTW game was 2 - 2.

Barbers hill had the 1st pick in WNBA draft and didn’t win state.

This was their last shot for a while, not saying they won’t be good but they will not be back here anytime soon.

I've been going to the state basketball tournament since 1972. 50 straight years of attending. I have seen my fair share of quality games and teams. Many times at the state tournament I witnessed very good teams tire out in the 2nd half due to the other team's relentless pressure. It happens. Sometimes you can see it happening based on the first half of play. I believe Silsbee was the better overall team (depth, coaching) in this match up. But to completely dismiss the fact that Washington only plays 6 players and coming off a tough game with LBJ less than 20 hours prior, they had to face a Silsbee team that was deeper and kept up the pressure, would be showing lack of knowledge of the game.

I live maybe 3 miles from BT Washington. For 20 years I worked at a DPS driver license office. High School students from all around would come in to get their IDs or DL permits. Many of the high school coaches are required to have a class B cdL passenger endorsement so they can drive the school buses. Coach Vincent Grayson the Washington basketball coach used to come in to keep his CDL going. When I told him I was from Silsbee we hit it off. We been talking reg III class 4A basketball off and on for 6 or 7 years.

With the Ukraine situation, now is not the right time for any candidate to talk about taking our guns. Might be an election killer. My wife often shares crazy stories with concern going on around the country and I tell her we don’t have worry about that, we live in Texas. If Beto were to get elected, that would change everything.

Does anyone else find it convenient that “Electric Vehicles” are being pushed and gas prices are through the roof? I am trying to buy a tractor right now and was told by one dealer that it could take up to six months to fill the order. It just seems really odd that gas prices are now averaging over $4.00 a gallon, “chip” shortages abound, and “supply chain” issues have not corrected themselves. It’s like the government is pushing us away from gas engines. But hey, I’m just a conspiracy nut so what do I know.

There seems to be a lot of excuses being made. I’m sorry, but when you have the #1 recruit in Texas (McDonald’s All American) on a 4A team who is not devoid of talent besides her and you don’t win State at least once in 4 years, there is blame to go around. HJ was easily the most talented 4A team in State the last two years. Should have won last year, and most definitely should have won this year especially after slaying Argyle. Not implying it’s all on the coaches because kids have to perform in crunch time. But that staff will be wondering how they let it slip away for years to come.

I don't think Brownsboro is being given enough credit here. They had a great plan, played tenacious D, and was deadly accurate most of the game. Part of H-J's struggles were a result from Brownsboro efforts. Not all but enough to make the difference. This was not a fluke, Brownsboro worked, executed, and earned the win.

all the while Png has one or two 11 wins seasons over the last 20+ seasons.. .= NOTHING spend up those taxpayers money. it really seems to be making a difference.

7th Wouldn't be fair if he got two years to play along side Miller and Harris. One year will have to do.

No doubt in my mind you’re right. As for the CT angle, I wonder if Putin (who I don’t think he & Trump are part of the NWO/OWG folks) was manipulated into this invasion? Is it part of their plan? To what end? I’ve come to the conclusion very little happens on the world stage that the NWO/OWG folks aren’t behind pulling the strings. They hated, feared Trump, so they went full court press on him. They feel pretty much the same about Putin but he’s in a safer position. What boggles my mind is the push toward EV’s when we’re not even close to being ready for them. For instance, you have an EV. You’re in SAntonio, it’s 10pm and you’re going to El Paso. I’m betting that 7.5 hour trip takes you at least 14 hours, and probably a towing fee. It’s absurd, ridiculous, insane, etc. etc.

You are spot on. It’s also interesting that biden, who claimed to be moderate, is bowing to the progressive left-wing nut jobs that run the party. He immediately showed his true colors the instant he was inaugurated. If he truly wants to help Americans and the “Uranians”, he will halt the importing of Russian oil, and immediately undo the crippling stances he has taken on the AMERICAN oil and gas industries. As far as your tractor goes, I don’t know what you’re looking for, but I have been pleased with my Mahindra.

A prescription may not even matter. It depends on how your state’s law is written. From the National Law Review on 6/17/15: “The Colorado Supreme Court ruled on June 15, 2015, that an employee can be fired for using medical marijuana even though the drug is legal in Colorado and the employee was not at work at the time. The unanimous decision upholds lower courts’ opinions that an employer has the right to terminate an employee for violating a company’s zero-tolerance policy for controlled substances, despite a Colorado law protecting employees from being punished for legal, off-duty activities.” Bottom line: You can get fired even if you have a prescription for it depending on your state’s laws and your employer’s drug policy.

Thanks. I love the 9/10s. It appears I will be going to work so I can afford to go to work.

Saw a gas station sign that I couldn’t download, but here is an attempt at copying…. Regular…..LOL Plus….OMG Premium….WTF Diesel…..Bend Over We provide KY Jelly to help ease the pain of your next gas purchase.

Gonna be a lot of lawns with tall grass this mowing season. However, they do still sell the old reel mowers. Too many lazy people these days to see them attempting to use those.

Kalon Barnes, a former champion Silsbee b baller, runs the NFL combine 40 yard dash today, Sunday, about 1 or 2 pm.

I think y’all are being a little hard on Fogo. They were unlucky to win last year, and HJ just played poorly last night. He can’t shoot for them, and they missed a ton of free throws, wide open threes, and layups. That also kept them out of the press, which is their bread and butter. Coaching aside, if they shoot even marginally better in those three areas they win by 12-15 points.

Don’t have to go back far. Damion Collins from Atlanta last year.

Brownsboro played great, no doubt, credit to them. What I’m saying is this...HJ beats that team 9 times out of 10, you can’t allow that 1 time to be the one that counts. When you have FAR more talent, you have to win when it counts. Just like last season for HJ, far more talent than Canyon, couldn’t get it done. When you’re the most talented team 4 years in a row and don’t win, it’s not the talent, it’s the coaching.

Stop playa hating 😂😂😂😂

Silsbee is the giant killer!! We would have to face them sooner or later. Might as well come out the gate swinging. Silsbee 80 Faith Family 77

It doesn't much matter about the seeding. Everybody knows, especially after today, that Silsbee could and would beat either Boerne or Hirsch. Friday is the 4A championship game for all intents and purposes. If Silsbee comes up short they are the second place team in 4A in 2022.

Just happy we play a solid PAC 12 team tomorrow. We aren’t getting better playing these weak a$$ SEC schools.

Completely agree, totally underachieved, and I don’t blame the girls. I feel really bad for Jackson, she deserves a Championship, so do other girls in that program. They got outcoached every year at some point. WAY TOO much talent the last 4 years to not win at least one Title.

Rough weekend for Woodville Carthage 7. Woodville 2 Mt Pleasant 7. Woodville 2 Livingston 2. Woodville 8 Spring Hill 6. Woodville 3

I’m curious to know the last time a small school had a McDonalds All American in Texas that never won State, boys or girls. Hard to believe.

Have to look at this way. Might be better to face them with several days to prepare and rest than just 20 something hours.

Lots of families keep roots in Silsbee. Kids leave and come back when it's time to raise a family and settle down. Some end up in Houston and Beaumont (see Porchia for example), but Silsbee keeps a lot. I bet if you look at the names on those rosters, you'd notice a pattern. We already have more Arlines, Cartwrights, Jones, and Adams making their way to high school next year.

This officer did not kill Breonna Taylor but he returned fire after a partner was shot. He fired into the apartment where the gun fire was coming from and did not hit anyone but a couple of bullets with him to the neighboring apartment. The officer who shot Breonna Taylor was not charged (correctly) So I think they charged this officer with endangering. Fortunately the jury saw through the charge and acquitted the officer.

Half HJ 29 B 26

I didn’t then but do now, lol. 😂🤣😂

These kids can play for hours and they often do. But after a while you start making mistakes. You don’t even realize it in pickup games or at practice. But at this level it’s crucial. Silsbee made mistakes too but they were making fewer in the second half.

Tell em Bullets. HJ knows better than most.

Final Bu 63 Crosby 57

I need a nap after that one.

Thank you Silsbee! I will be enjoying rubbing this win in through the end of July!

Ole boy just said “ehh y’all book the room at the Hilton right now! I’m gonna get y’all a discount!” He’s killing me. This is awesome

Saw Gene a few years ago at our semi final game before we won state. He had went on a diet and lost a lot of weight and looked healthy. He talked like he might get back in coaching. He was a pleasure to be around.

I apologize for posting today's regional final game threads so early. Today is opening ceremonies at Silsbee Little League at 9am and I have a very important Tee Ball game to attend at 11:30am. Grandson's first ever Tee Ball game. I should be back by 2pm to help update the games for today.

Love that speech and that movie. I love both sports (basketball and baseball). Have a little more passion for basketball though. But my love for my grandkids trumps all!!

That was a very, very good post.

I bet it's moot also......

They return 25 starters on both sides of the ball, it shouldn't be that hard. 😁
