That wasn't a part of the first one. [/quote] Its BISD anything is possible. Heard it will be built at the "Butch" and will be called Butch High School and a mall is to be built next year next to the new Hotel and they will rename that end of Beaumont [size=14pt]Butchville.[/size][/quote] Sounds like a lesbian commune.

Watch the right fielder- he gets so bored out there he can't help but think of other things  ;D

Please, nobody keeps up with that sport in Houston. [/quote] Craig Biggio and St. Thomas high gets alot of attention. [/quote] I'm from Houston and familiar with the history of Bellaire's baseball program and their [s]recruitment of players.[/s]..ooops! Its a high profile program, but not a news worthy program you hear about in the barber shops. [/quote] They are in the barber shops I go to. [/quote  ::)  Unless Katy makes the playoffs- those barbers don't care nothing about Bellaire [/quote] Dove- First of all, I am shocked that you travel all the way to Houston to get your haircut.  Secondly, if you know what those barbers care and don't care about, it simply means that you and WOS grad both use the same barber(s).  I wonder why the two of you have such vastly different interpretations? [/quote] Great question Nash! WOS must use the barber in katy where baseball and football is the measure.

Good deal! Way to go.

"Pitch the ball?" I guess he's watched film on the Legacy team and know his personnel  :-\ BMTSoulJa, I see why you're happy.

[quote name="falconfanatic" post="1204015" timestamp="1333119867"] [Hidden Content] Apparently there was a phone survey done a couple of years ago. Here're the percentages of Houston adults at least moderately interested in various sports:Football........73% Basketball:....71% Baseball........60% Boxing..........50% Soccer.........44% Tennis..........41% Golf..............40% Auto Racing...39% Ice Hockey....30% Of those respondents 23% percent had a very high interest in football, 13% percent had very high interest in baseball, and only 5% had a very high intrest in basketball. Clearly people in Houston care about baseball. [/quote]Skewed! It was a[color=red] phone survey.[/color].......I'll let some of yall think on this one.......!!!!!! They called Katy, Cy-Fair, Woodlands, etc. They love high school baseball.  Now do a walking survey within the inner city and look at a different result ::)

Kids use to practice their pitching BY throwing rocks off the bridge at cars as they traveled I-10. Bad kids!

Plus, you're getting the major media outlets in Houston covering the high school players. Players in Houston are being looked at and selected to all the major high school all star events.

I was speaking of competition between mids and majors [/quote] What does that have to do with baseball being a thinking man's game? [/quote]In basketball, you can't just mix in high major with mid major competition. The mids usually get blown away. Or is it the same in baseball too?
