Let's here them.

From media reports I have been reading, it looks like the matches will be next Thursday or Friday. For the Boys Bi-District match ups, it appears to work out this way: Nederland vs. Jasper Port Neches-Groves vs. Liberty Beaumont Central vs. Livington Vidor vs. Lumberton For the Girls, I believe it works out this way: Port Neches-Groves vs. Jasper Nederland vs. Livingston Little Cypress-Mauriceville vs. Hardin-Jefferson Lumberton vs. Vidor

La Porte wins 1-0

Nederland wins 5-0

The Mustangs took this one, 3-1. Courtesy: kogt.com

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="985167" timestamp="1300487263"] [quote author=Scooter! link=topic=81679.msg985061#msg985061 date=1300481585] lol my bracket looking good  ;D [/quote] Is it a good thing that all of my picks have red lines crossing them out?  :-[ [/quote] Not all, but 3 sweet 16's and a final four gone after the first round.  Guys, there is a funny noise in the engine and a lot of smoke coming out of the exhaust.

In fact, after thinking about it.  As long as I am a staff member, I OPPOSE the reinstatement of Dale Rose, under any user name, as a member of SETXsports.com.  He has shown himself an unstable person who is prone to personal attack and threat.  That is the reason he was removed as a moderator by Jim Barton before the inception of SETXsports and things that I know about his past lead me to believe that is not someone that Jordan would want as a poster here. If that is not the prevailing voice, I understand and will live by the majority decision, but that is my view.

Not a problem, and as far as being a threat, NOBODY could threaten SETXsports.com.  On our current pace for this month we will have between 2.5 and 2.6 MILLION page views for the month.  That will be about 500,000 page views more than March of last year. In fact so far this school year (Aug. 2010-present), the SETXsports message board has amassed 19,396,068 page views, which is just over 600,000 page views less than all of last year (20,048,294 page views from Aug. 2009-June 2010).  We are not surpassing our previous numbers...we are destroying them!  And the numbers this year have been accomplished despite TSI operating during football season, HoopInsider.com operating during basketball season and a year old BRI operating the entire year.   It is not a matter of them being a threat, it is a matter of them do their dead level best to trash something that I think we all pretty proud of here.  Whether it has any effect is of no moment to me, that they have done that and have now decided to escalate into personal attacks outside of the content on the message board angers me to no end. So if Dale Rose and the rest of the riff raff over there never get to post a single post here again, then I won't lose any sleep over it.

Thanks!

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="985546" timestamp="1300509049"] :D :D :D I actually think you did a better job at it than anyone I have ever seen!!!! I am referring to Chad having his avatar and the name of his site in his signature. [/quote] 1. Thanks.  2.  On Chad, so was I.  When BRI AND its staff 1) display something other than open hostility toward this site and 2) not stand by and snicker when non-staff members do the same, then I might be persuaded to look the other way when I see a BRI signature if Jordan were to okay that.  And, to repeat the note that this whole thread started on, Jordan is not so eager to extend pleasantries and privileges to members of sites who as a regular part of their practice (and believe me, it is regular) take shots at SETXsports.

Any word from C'view?

Any word from Crosby?

Any word from Hemphill?

Any word from Tomball?

Anything from Liberty?

Anything from DeRidder?

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="985539" timestamp="1300508176"] Well this is just my .02 from a 2 week old ADMIN........... If we are not gonna allow references to BRI then we should not allow references to hoopinsider either.  Either you allow both or delete both.  Not really fair to allow chad to have in his signature and not allow the guys from BRI.  I also think that neither is a threat to this site.  Just my opinion. [/quote] Well, and this has also been explained, Hoopinsider.com lists SETXsports.com in its links list.  Contrary to the rants of that walking vagina, AVItom and that drug addict, bigred360, it is not because we NEEDED the information on HoopInsider.  If I may be so arrogant, I think I did a pretty damned good job of keeping up with the local scores in the area and had to use Chad's site as a resource very occassionally and know that he used info here to complete his (the same with Brad up in East Texas). Second, Chad has not, since he left, allowed public rantings against this site or its staff on his site.  That has long been a pastime on the Melancon family of sites, whether it be TSI or BRI. Third, who says that we haven't deleted references to HoopInsider?   ;)

Thanks for the kind words.  They are enough. As you could probably tell, I am not the biggest of soccer experts (heck I'm not even the smallest of soccer experts). Thus, I really appreciate y'all's patience as I stumble to get up to speed on this and I really appreciate those who have posted and have helped me keep up.  In my mind, it simply comes down to this, soccer is not and probably will not ever be the most popular high school sport in Southeast Texas.  That being said, soccer is a UIL sanctioned team sport in which a number of young men and women participate in the area.  Those young men and women are every bit the athlete the Fred Fords and Asia Bookers of the world are and are deserving of the same respect as an athlete representing their community and school.  That to me, at the very least, is a keeping up of where and when (when I get it right) they are supposed to play and the score when they did play.   This first year for me has been fun and I look forward to many more.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="985514" timestamp="1300506764"] Just out of curiosity........if you are banned on the site, can you still view the threads and post? [/quote] If you IP isn't banned, I would think you could.

Well, Rob.  If I had not read your post, I would have known nothing about it.  Now I am acting like a 12 yr old?
