Buna vs Kirbyville in the Playoffs
Hotrodg replied to Javelina's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
You answered your own question. Hope to don't get Newton I did't ask the question alot of people are talking about the match up that won't happen that why I started this topic and Buna will prob get Newton in the area round I don't think so. Buna looks to go in as the higher seed from 23-2A. Newton also looks to go in as the higher seed from 22-2A. Buna, therefore would get the winner of the game between the 21-2A champ and 22-2A 3rd place team. Buna and Newton would both have to advance to the 4th round to meet this year unless something strange happens. I will say that if you advance that deep you are likely good enough to play with any team you meet there. -
I would just like to see Buna and Kirbyville do go this year!! Buna will almost certainly be in D2.

Meh..it is not like Newton fans went silent. As a rule, Newton does not do much trash talking. (There are, of course, exceptions.) A few lessons learned from decades of winning: 1. Trash talk wins no games. 2. Anyone can be beat. 3. This one Kirbyville would do well to heed. When it comes to the playoffs, being better than your opponent is not enough. Here is my attempt at trash talk: All this noise coming from the Kirbyville fans makes me wonder. Since you are not content to let the team speak for itself through what happens on the field, I ask "Who are you trying to convince?" The reason you don't hear from Newton is we expect to win the game and district title next week. Period. We don't hope to win, or think maybe we will win, or might win, we EXPECT to win. That trophy belongs to Newton and has for over three decades excepting a year here and there. Can it be taken from Newton? Sure. Bridge City, Jasper, and other have managed to take it home here and there but none for long. Crowing about how Kirbyville is "Here to stay", before they have even arrived, rings hollow.

The coogs look like they are quietly putting together a nice season. Looks like the folks (myself included) that thought the losses to graduation were too big to repeat last year's success were wrong.

*Kirbyville vs. Woodville Updates*/'CATS ROLL!!!
Hotrodg replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
If they were called back then they did not give them up. I am hearing a recurring theme of complaints about refs from the Kirbyville following on this board. -
What does Livingston have to do?
Hotrodg replied to EagleAG03's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
The answer is simple. Keep winning. Whining, pleading, expressing outrage, name calling, voodoo dolls, and demands are all ineffective. You want respect keep winning. -
3 rounds is probably about right.
-
I don't think they mean it the way it comes across. I think they are just excited to have a decent team and have not been winning long enough to know how to handle it with grace and class. Edit: I want to clarify that I mean *exactly* what I wrote. This is not a veiled insult. I also want to further clarify that the "they" I write about here are the Kirbyville fans that post on this board without regard to the way people might view the team or community as a result. NOT the kids and coaches that probably go out and work hard every practice and every game.

Backups have been in for a while now. Hemphill just got their 2nd first down of the game. -

Sooooo....what do Newton and Kirbyville have to do with a discussion about backs in 23-2A?

Can any body beat Kirbyville?
Hotrodg replied to jasper forever 07's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Kirbyville is better than Diboll and Corrigan-Camden. How did Newton do against those two? How do you know Kirbyville is better than CC? Because you decree it? You Kirbyville fans are in for a rude awakeningif you think the teams you have been playing are indicative of 2A contenders. You have yet to see a decent 2A team. As far as Diboll.. once again, there is no transitive property of football. Also you are talking about two games that were each decided by a single score (or less), a single play in either game could have had the decision going the other way. Even if there were a transitive property of football (there still is not) that is hardly decisive. -

Tatum is not in Arp's district. Tatum is a 3A school, Arp is 2A. -
Two side of the same coin. You make the assumption here that the accused are guilty. Maybe they are, maybe they are not, we happen to have a system to determine this. Assuming the accused are guilty is just as bad as assuming they are innocent. They have been accused, and law enforcement felt there was sufficient cause as to warrant an arrest. Assuming anything beyond that without personal, first-hand knowledge is irresponsible and that has NOTHING to do with football. Remember the Duke lacross team? Those young men were accused, arrested, the entire team had the season cancelled, and the coach was forced to resign..and then it comes to light the entire allegation was fabricated. I want to note I am in no way accusing the alleged victim of deception here, nor am I willing to convict the alleged perpetrators. I have no knowledge of the events in question.

A couple thoughts here about selective outrage. 1. Innocent until proven guilty. 2. For the people upset at the listing of stats and questions about how big of a part the alleged perpatrators played for the team. Yes, if they are guilty, it is horrible that a young lady will have to deal with the emotional stress as a result. Remember also though there are dozens of other teenagers that will have their lives affected. The teammates of the accused have put quite an investment into their football endeavor, this year and previous years. To pretend they are not affected if these kids committed a crime and became unavailable is silly. It does not discount the greater suffering the alleged victim has to endure, and neither does a victim's suffering discount others that are affected to a lesser degree. As someone else said, this does happen to be a sports board. It is in no way inappropriate for focus in this forum to be on sports.

You'll find that there are plenty of 2A teams that are every bit as good as anything you have seen in 3A. -
Congrats Kirbyville!

KVILLE RANKED #20 STATE WIDE 5A TO 1A WITH MAX PREPS
Hotrodg replied to grizzly62's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Maxpreps is wack but grats on the recognition. Kirbyville is having a nice season. -
Only if you assume that a coach/scout for a college team is an absolute moron that can't figure out what 6 carries for 100 yards and 3 TDs means...which they are not. In fact leaving a back in against a vastly overmatched team would probably not help them much at at all because those coaches and scouts are NOT morons. They likely won't be impressed with 42 carries for 700 yards and 21 TDs in that same game anymore than the 6-100-3. In fact you could make the argument that it would HURT their recruitment chances since they might be tempted to discount "padded" stats. The bottom line on that is if a kid has the tools to play at the next level pulling him out in a rout is not going to keep him from getting there. I have not sen him in person but the consensus around the state seems to be for the kid at Rice Consolidated.
