[/quote]From what I can gather, Dayton isn't that good. But, if you guys schedule Westbury Christian or similar team, I'LL gladly come out and watch how these teams will stop your spot up shooters. ;) [/quote] Excuse me,  I didnt realize those types of teams were on the HF schedule and that you had become accustomed to watching those. [/quote]Now you of all people should know I watch the big dogs the majority of the time.

[quote name="east texas bb" post="929330" timestamp="1291917828"] Silsbee guys, I was just trying to help you out and let you know you got bigger fish to skin than worry about a hair cut.  You are playing right into what your opponents want.  I was trying to keep you from beating yourselves.  Forget I said anything about it, I was just trying to help you out.  IF you want to worry about haircuts while your opponents worry about basketball then more power to you.  Sorry I said anything, just trying to help you guys realize that you are playing  right into their hands. [/quote]You made very good points.

Yep,Nederland should be in championship game ;)

[quote name="Tweeter" post="929213" timestamp="1291908658"] Discipline comes in many forms dove. Absolutely from your examples. Also from making the choice to abide by standards set in place by the boss. [/quote]I remember on Fridays you could go to work in jeans. It was not acceptable...hmmm?

[quote name="mfd814" post="929205" timestamp="1291908108"] I actually don't mind the mini fros, braids, dreads, if they are kept neat. I would not like the long braids, since they could pull on them when the ref isn't looking.  But if this is a rule that the head coach has made, my son would abide by it. [/quote]I agree ;)

Thats what I love about the game. Love seeing kids who were born to play the game. But those decision making skills will burn you or elevate you. And on the other side, I see too many decisions made now from the X-Box

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="929195" timestamp="1291907065"] Joe Sigler had this in effect for Silsbee back in the 80's and 90's. You could wear a nice and neat afro but no braids. People get real! If you want to work or play for anyone you have to abide by their rules. If you don't like try and find something else to do. Travis is trying to help mold these young men to accept dicipline. Its a freaking hair cut! If your a great athelete, you will cut your hair to get under team ploicy. If a parent is more concerned about this than their kids grades or chance at a higher education this would be sad. [/quote]Actually your discipline comes from arriving to practice on time, hustling on and off the court, running lines or suicides, etc, etc, bah-hhhh!!! ;) Kids aren't stupid. They wear that same  hair on life's broader stages: to class, church, in the community, etc.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="929183" timestamp="1291906675"] Chucky was a player for the Hawks who was a Junior on the 91 State Championship team and died in a single car accident over the summer before his senior season!!!! Jettyman almost there, one more kink which better be taken care of this morning and will be flying!!!!  Got kinks worked out through the school for sure!!!! ;) ;) ;) [/quote]In other words, you bought a new car battery for the broadcast back up 8)

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="929029" timestamp="1291863481"] Spoke with a very good source to LU tonight and I was told that LU has verbal commits from some key players and skill players.  A QB, RB, TE and are looking hard at OL and DL!!!!! [/quote]Those kids were just being nice. They are waiting to see if any Big Dogs come knocking on their doors HJ fans of all people should know this process ;)

[quote name="east texas bb" post="929036" timestamp="1291865018"] I think anyone on this board should be able to post whatever they choose to about the future of the program they back.  No one has sole esclusive rights to the future.  Just be able to eat your words if your wrong.  [/quote]Thats the downside to trash-talking, you have to be strong enough and put aside your ego to eat a little chicken sometime. Won't be the first time ;D

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="929026" timestamp="1291862719"] Every school has there crap talkers..........funny thing is that HJ has backed it up!!!  If they fall short this year, that is OK for all the years that everyone said they would lose to Cleveland, Navasota and the year that they won state in 2007 when everyone and I mean everyone thought that they would lose to Silsbee in the Regional Final!!!! I am a little more conservative than most Hawk fans are......this year will be more difficult than others, but still see a deep run in the playoffs!!!  Don't ever under estimate the Hawks!!! [/quote]And thats makes it worse because HJ has been able to back up their talk. Gotta respect them for that >:(

Well, HF whipped up on State champs twice this year :P

They finally have an inside game that they haven't had in several years. The perimeter game has always been there. [/quote]Dont take this wrong but how can EC have much of a inside game, with the biggest player on the team 6'2'' and hes the point guard?? [/quote]Maybe EC still in football mode

[quote name="Tiger05" post="928864" timestamp="1291841113"] Ok maybe EC is good but I did expect WOS to at least beat Lumberton  ??? [/quote]So maybe 3rd place will be a dogfight in the 3-A district.

[quote name="SHS_Mayor" post="928860" timestamp="1291840859"] IDC who Silsbee plays D.C Stallworth will not be checked by anyone there Ball is Good but i saw these kids in Vegas this summer where Kelton Gaines an Dc played for Omar Sneed's team an made it to the Semi's DC average 18 points an 9 rebounds against the top player in the Country this GUY IS MUST SEE TV [/quote]And who is this top player you are referring to? And his name please? Something don't sound right.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="928716" timestamp="1291825660"] I agree. East Chambers is good, not surprised at all that they won this game. [/quote]So you wait until the game is over and then you make your picks, WOW!  ::) ::)
