  1. The quote stating Silsbee is the better team is pretty darn accurate. Anytime 2 teams play each other 4 times and one team wins three of them, then it's pretty obvious that team is just a little better than the other. WOS won one game against Silsbee, it just happened to be the most important one.
  2. Silsbee by 9. The Tigers will be too deep for Liberty Hill to stay with.
  3. With Silsbee, Kountze, West Hardin, and our half brothers Hardin-Jefferson still playing in the playoffs, this county has some serious basketball being played here. Only ones left out is Lumberton. Oh yeah, they got the Lady Raiders to carry that flag.
  4. As for Letsinger is concerned, he is a very good basketball player. But what seems to be missing in these posts is the fact that this is all by comparison. No one, and that includes the lumberton poster, is saying that Letsinger isn't any good. It's just he's not considered as good as these other three players mentioned. To me, that's not a knock on him but a compliment to the other players, definetly not bashing as some on here have mentioned. I know he's your hometown boy and you are going to be somewhat biased, but the fact remains that some consider Letsinger a great player only in his classification, which is not a bad thing. Percentages say that if you take the POY in each classification over a several year span, the higher classification player is usually the better of the rest, just a known fact. There was mention of Shaq that he played 3a, which is true. But you are kidding yourself he you think he wouldn't have dominated in any classification. There are exceptions to the rule, but Letsinger isn't one of them. I have been going to the boys state basketball championships for many years now, started in 1972, when I was 8 years old, haven't missed a year since. My dad started taking me when he thought I was old enough to enjoy it like him. He has been going to the tournament since 1958, be making his 50th straight this year. I said this to say this: I have seen many a great player over the years, in all classifications. There have been some in the lower classes(1A, 2A ), but not near as many in the upper classes. Most of those probably would not have been that great if they had played in those upper classes. Scholarships prove that fact. To get all bent out of shape because someone doesn't think Letsinger is as good as Donahoe, Brown, and Thomas is just silly. The fact is, those three will be playing Div. 1 ball and Letsinger probably will not.
  5. Tigers by 11. They play at 6:00pm.
  6. See, stang4life wasn't even at the game. The game was Wednsday night. ;D
  7. East of here? When did Lake Charles get that many people?
  8. Records in Classic: Vanderbilt 3-0 Arizona St. 2-1 Texas A&M 2-1 Rice 1-2 Houston 1-2 Baylor 0-3
  9. To me this is an easy pick. Ryan Donahoe is the player of the year in Southeast Texas. Write it down, chalk it up, put it in stone, or as it is these days, save it to the hard drive. Ryan is the best and has played better than anyone in this area. If Brown was a senior and I was a college coach and had to decide between the two, no brainer, I would take Donahoe. Brown seems to be like a T.O., which is not a good thing for a team.
  10. The same as this year: 1. WOS 2. Silsbee 3. Kirbyville
  11. Since when does a 9 point win refer to a stomping? ESPN got the man-love going for the sips.
  12. When a team only scores 16 points in a boys varsity basketball game, you blame everyone. The coach, the players, the manager, the waterboy, the cheerleaders, ect, ect. ect..... That is truely pathetic.
  13. You didn't know what you were talking about? Like you didn't know what you were talking about when you said Acie Law was just an average player. I rest my case.
  14. I don't think Sour Lake has anything to do with it. Looking at Bridge City's season this year, it doesn't matter what town they are driving to.
  15. Spoken and misspelled like a crying horn would do.
  16. Congrats Lady Tigers on your district championship, 3 in a row. Job well done.
  17. I would not consider Acie Law average. Kansas players said he was the best they faced all year, and they have played some pretty good teams and players already this season, beat Florida earlier this year. You saying Acie is average shows either what little you know of the game or just an Aggie hater. Probably both.
  18. I have personally spoken to some people that are in the know( ties with school officials ) and each have told me that it's not a matter of are they going to do it, but when. A couple of them have actually said by 2010, football will be playing at the university. I think that's a little soon because I think they would have to have the ball rolling now to be able to play in 3 years. I'm thinking 2012.
  19. I'm predicting a minimum sweet 16, possible final 4, depending on the seeding and regional.
  20. It's at Reed Arena. Dickie V. said he can't wait to get to College Station on Monday. IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME, BABY!!!!!!!
  21. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!!!! How bout dem Aggies!! Acie Law takes over the last few minutes of this game and breaks the Kansas streak. Ags go on a 17-4 run to end the game, win 69-66. Texas A&M was down as much as 12 with 4 minutes left but refused to give up thanks to Law and that great Aggie defense. Great win!
  22. Lamar falls to 9-13, 3-5 in conf. With 8 games remaining, I'm predicting the Cards to go 3-5 in those games and finish at 12-18, 6-10 in conf., no postseason. So much for all the hype at the beginning of this season.
