Warren Warriors- Not because of the disappointing record but because of the low turnout of players.The kids that played have my utmost respect because they are young and will only get better if they stay with it.The young AD will bring the football program around if some of the kids that are in the stands will get on the field.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="895714" timestamp="1288815229"] Silsbee will run away with district if they stay healthy [/quote]Silsee and HJ wll split home and away and will playoff for seeding.WOS will slide in the 3rd spot followed by Orangefield.

[quote name="wouldsmith" post="893878" timestamp="1288641620"] I hope Warren gets their first win of the year.  :D :D ;D [/quote]Unfortunately I think Warrens first win may still be a couple of years away  :-\ :-\

If Walker and Brey , Oh wait a minute, there gone HJ by 25.

Coop is the man in SETX hoops !!!! Enterprise geez, leave that to the paper boys :)

Should be a great ballgame,two very even clubs that could easily be in the playoffs.I think Buna wins by 6.

LOL Now that's funny I don't care who you are :)

Voted, know lots of folks over at Hardin.

[quote name="True Blue" post="886051" timestamp="1287893701"] The only hope the people of Beaumont have is that Thomas goes the way of Ex Mayor David Moore And they finaly find him guilty of public corruption Then we will see what name they put on the b!tch stadium ??? [/quote]That may not be a good hope for the people of Beaumont True, it would surprise you where you might see an Ex mayor  ::) ::)

Hats off to ya Johar73 for some great pictures.West Hardin is fortunate to have you in there corner.Do they really have 11 seniors ????

What is going on with the Pirates? [/quote]same old thing win a few non district against smaller schools and then in district    nothing [/quote]That may not be a bad thing if your club is young but if the are older it's a recipe for disaster.No disrepect to this years pirates because I don't know how old the club is but I knew they would struggle when they went to the last few seconds to beat a very young Warren club.

[quote name="highsky" post="883890" timestamp="1287790686"] Hardin over Warren in 5. [/quote]Tough year for the Lady Warriors,1 st time in probably 10 or 12 years they haven't made the playoffs with a ton of returning starters  :'(

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="885270" timestamp="1287857606"] They aint using your money. I like the idea of a Hotel/Restaurant program for our area high school students. It would fit right into Lamar's degree program [/quote]They certainly aren't or I would be on the front row demanding to know where it went.It amazes me how little most folks know about where their school taxes go .

Jeff "the jet" Bergeron. They don't come along everyday with that kind of ability.

[/quote] HJ is overrated every year... until they win 30 games and go several rounds deep into the playoffs.  That being said, they're overrated at #3 in the state right now, but they'll still have a very good team again this year.  they're going to be taller and deeper than last year.  you can't replace jacoby, but prudhomme looks like he's ready to be the go-to man, we have our starting PG back, a light's out shooter, a couple of capable big men, and a better bench than last year. [/quote]I try to be objective every year but I don't see Kountze being anywhere close to what they have been over the past several years, HJ on the other hand I think will be every bit as good as they were last year.They will miss Turners quickness but they have a real young kid that is gonna turn some heads and kid who was on the JV last year that made HUGE strides this summer.Throw in their returning starters and they will be very good.One thing going for Kountze is they play early in the season  before the football injuries will completely heal but HJ still wins this one easily.

[/quote]You may have a point there, the way the Rebs are playing football now , Spurger may get 3 or 4 weeks headstart on the hardfloor. ;) [/quote]That was my point, this is a good group at Evadale in several sports and will be hard to replace.The headstart will be greater than that because Spurger will hit the hardwood next week and Evadale could easily go a couple of rounds deep in the football playoffs.

[/quote]To help the area economy. To help bring in more room space for all the sporting events that will come to the area. And to help SETXsports report more sports and get more advertising ;D [/quote]Those are all noble causes but none should be the responsibility of the local school district and more importantly the tax payers of BISD.The out cry from taxpayers over the financial failures of Ford Park would pale in comparison to the can of worms this would open.Having sat on a school board for several years I can assure you this isn't a headache the trustees want or need.
