Badsanta- I think you might be underestimating the Longhorns- Don't you think they have made considerable improvement?

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="953740" timestamp="1295877653"] To be accurate, the "passionate" fan did not ask IF said player went without any fouls, the fan was asking (in a raised voice heard over our mics) HOW said player went without any fouls. ;) ;D Rant is probably not the most accurate of words to describe the incident, my apologies. Crying and not showing some courtesy by interupting our broadcast may not be considered a rant to some, but that's what I would call it. You will have to excuse my weak vocabulary. I apologize. [/quote] If he approached the table with the intent of being discourteous and to interrupt the broadcast by making that remark directly to you, I think you have every right to be offended.

[/quote] Do you think Stallworth will be able to play the entire game without fouling as he did in the last game? [/quote] I certainly do not expect him too. Honestly, I hope that he doesn't. This may keep a certain "passionate" fan from coming over to our broadcast table while we were still on air and ranting about said fact during our post game wrap up. ;) (I almost gave credit for that rant on air) ;) [/quote]  I can certainly see where asking someone if a player went without any fouls is considered a rant.  An individual should not be  permitted to get away with such.  Since peace officers were close by, am surprised they didnt step in once the rant became prolonged and boisterous.  If they wanted to know just how it happened before escorting him from the gym, you would have had all the evidence you needed on the broadcast tape. ;D

Sure they show up and cheer/ridicule the opposing team, but as far as they are concerned no one else in the state of Texas plays basketball. [/quote] You are so right.  Whatever gave the HJ fans the right to believe that they have a good team?  Whatever gave them the right to defend the team they support against ridicule from others?  Why should they believe that their team is competitive when "experts" have already informed them they have no chance?  Don't they understand that , to respond to criticism (possibly unwarranted) is inappropriate and unfair and gives the appearance that they think HJ is the only basketball program in the state?  Yes, there is no place for the misplaced emotions you so aptly described - especially when they are displayed only by HJ supporters while others display,( via non inflammatory commentary such as "I am an HJ hater" or " I will stop hating HJ if they beat Silsbee"), the purest form of  unbiased and objective commentary.  I don't know about you, but I am getting pretty tired of talking to HJ fans and hearing every one of them declare that no one else in the state of Texas plays basketball.  [b]I think the solution to all of this is to belittle those fans and their team[/b] until they realize that their conduct/ behavior ( unlike any fans from any other teams)  will not be tolerated.  They need to learn that they don't know much about basketball and they should listen to those who do and they should never respond, in kind, to those who question them. [/quote] See this is where you are mistaken. I think HJ is a great team and I never belittled them. There have been times when I was ashamed of the fans that cheer for my alown ma mater. I believe that HJ has a game that speaks for itself and they do not fans that belittle others all the while calling it "passion". Be supportive of your team and cheer for god's sake. Just realize that on any given night you could be beat by any given team and what will your reactions be when that happens. Will you give the other team the respect that they have quite obviosuly earned or will you get on and run your head about how it was pure luck, our pg was injured, or it won't happen again. Maybe your not the type, but many of your beloved "hecklers are. Overall the message is be a passionate and supportive fan, not an obnoxious one! [/quote]I dont disagree with anything you said.  If you had followed the entire thread, you would realize that the post to which you refer was being expressed in jest.  For the record, I have never belittled a player, coach, or team via written comments on this board.

[/quote] If my team was called out, I would only say one thing, "Lets see what happens on the court." As far as the common sense is concerned, the only common sense I should've had was whether to brave enough to step up and say something carrying a negative connotation toward THE HJ hawks and the success they will not have or have.. My judgement may be considered to have error since we are dealing with the great Hardin Jefferson after all, we all are very well educated on the past years of history concerning this topic of discussion.. And in case you were puzzled, I enjoy a daily dosage of the wonderful writings (typings to be politically correct) from you..  ;D On a different note, I would love to inquire some info about where I was "unjustifiably critical of parents and/or coaches.. My judgement on the players has come from seeing what the past years, the ones from which HJ was successful, and making my own and unique caparison.. I ultimately concluded that HJ would not reach expectations and would not play Silsbee more than twice.. You seem to have taken offense to these statements and reacted in a way that other people on this forum see as "classless." Maybe you could read the comment and laugh or, better yet, make a small comment to disprove the person, instead of create a personal issue out of it and use those discussion points in other various other post.. Maybe if you employed that, you might like it..  ;) I have never been this excited to get on SETXsports.com! I thank you stevenash for making this interesting, but for now, lets let the kids play the game me and you both love, and make our comments when the numbers come out.. Sound like a plan? [/quote]  Great plan.  Curious, though, why you chose not to follow your own plan/ suggestion the first time.  Additionally,if you had reached your unique comparative conclusion, could it not have been better to have just said HJ wont play SIlsbee more than twice and omit the " I want HJ fans to know their team isnt very good" and"Silsbee will mop the floor with HJ" (hardly the words of a reasoned and fun loving individual)?  As for the "classless" stuff - I choose to not be real concerned what a poster or two thinks is classless and still believe there is nothing classless about reminding you in the manner that I did.
