  1. If you believe in the intentions of our forefathers, you, no doubt, believe that the Constitution should be followed to the exact letter. Am I correct?
  2. Is that the fault of the reader or the author?
  3. DV- Why don't you tell about your exploits in Polo and Diving also?
  4. I congratulate you on employing a bit of common sense.
  5. If you were an uninformed voter, you would be voting for Hillary
  6. Why just this year? Based upon what you have said about the under levels and with all of the move backs, sounds like things will continue to get even better.
  7. Dove, will you be boycotting the NBA All Star game if a Caucasian is not selected?
  8. It is my understanding that you are about to witness several.
  9. As though anyone consults this board when making a decision on where to attend school.
  10. WHile you are arranging all of these other "items" why don't you petition the UIL to play in division 6-a where you will periodically have a worthy opponent? ( By the way, the individual you predicted will be the greatest 3point shooter in the area still has a ways to go)_
  11. It wont do any good. Players want to come where several state titles are guaranteed.
  12. Would that, by any chance, be a top flight communications program?
  13. The point differential at half time vs the point differential at the end of the game implies that strategy was counter productive. How many three pointers were taken by Silsbee in the second half vs the first? Unless there were substantially less, my guess is there wasn't as much of an effort by Silsbee to slow it down as there was by HJ. If one believes in the "slow it down, Silsbee theory, then why not limit the possessions of the opposition even further by only shooting open layups in that second half? Regarding having done better jobs on other big men. There are a lot of other big men that don't have the luxury of a Saladin and Parquet on the wings.
  14. Of course they didn't shoot that badly- that was a jab at a couple of individuals. Personally, its hard for me to understand how trying to reduce the number of offensive possessions for one team does not result in virtually the same for the other. I know that Silsbees most productive quarter was not based on that theory. When the opposition decides to concentrate defensively on Saladin, you give up something but you pick up something else. ( Roberts and Rogers both scored considerably more than normal). Parquets absence also contributed to Saladins difficulty. Silsbee has the advantage in speed, depth, and athleticism. However, the one spot they are at a disadvantage is Roberts. Silsbee has no solution for him from a one on one standpoint. Its up to HJ to try and capitalize more on that circumstance and if he is double teamed or collapsed upon, its up to HJ to find the open shot.
  15. Saladins struggle had much to do with the defense. ( On the other hand, some believe that the HJ defense had nothing to do with Silsbees "off shooting night".) Because of that, Roberts should have probably scored more than he did. As for lising the 14 losses in last 18 meetings, you may get ridiculed by ST13 for "living in the past".
  16. Its also worth considering the fact that Parquet is the second tallest player on the team and his rebounding was missed as much or more than his scoring/ball handling. A key reserve (6th or 7th man) also missed this game due to injuries. The suggestion/inference that poor shooting by Silsbee is why they didn't win by 20 is a total crock. ( that pathetic theory is based on the thought that Silsbee could have shot better but HJ couldn't have)
  17. Or perhaps made Silsbee fans and players reason to be concerned.
