Pirtle is out for the year, which will hurt next week

Royal came into this matchup 9-1 last year and HF beat them 40-10. This year’s HF squad is a little better, and Royal is only 5-5 on the year. Might get ugly

HF returned the opening kickoff to the BR 32, then scored on the first play

!!:0/7/1

it's the only sport that would change.

hardly. for one, there's no credibility in football currently anyway, and to make this something as important as a matter of integrity is overstating.

and you can't argue that you're saving money on gas, especially factoring in Livingston.

Even on paper this should be a close one. OT loss to 5AD2 #3 PNG. OT loss to 4AD2 #8 HF. 4 point loss to 3A-D2 #5 Newton, who's winning most 4A districts. 3 point loss to Jasper, who's realistically a top-15 team in 4AD2, and ranked in the top ten if they aren't playing in this district. And then the 2 TD loss to 4AD2 #2 Silsbee, in which WOS was plenty competitive. WOS could've easily won 4 of those 5 games, and I'll be honest, I think you could swap these two team's schedules and Bellville would be 5-5 (maybe 6-4) and WOS would be 10-0.

Here's my thing: what does HJ lose here besides a little gas money? The FOURTH worst team in this district is WOS, who, for all the talk of being dead and gone, lost by 4 to newton, OT to HF, OT to PNG, and by 3 to Jasper. They're a coaching change away from being a top-10 4A-D2 school again next year. Football is the only sport with divisions, so it doesn't mess anything up for the other sports. I don't really see any disadvantage to doing this, although I also don't really see a whole ton of upside, other than maybe picking up an extra win or two, and not getting blown out quite as bad every game.

any chance of them going to a 4A D1 and D2 in basketball in the near future? If so that might make more sense for HJ, depending on where Silsbee and some fraudulent 4A houston schools line up.

Trump just kinda seems like he's losing it. Not the nomination, just inside his head. His behavior, statements, and actions seem more and more erratic. I dunno. I really hope he doesn't win the nomination, but I assume it's coming. His campaign really sent a bird cage and bird seed to Nikki Haley's hotel? And this was after he referred to her as a bird brain? is he 9 years old? Not to mention the foolish behavior in court.

Anyone kill anything yet? I killed a small, but legal 10 point. Ready for gun season to crank up this weekend

Been waiting 35 years for this!

What a game, what a series, what a post season, what a regular season. Unbelievable rollercoaster ride!

Yikes. Could cause some serious problems for some schools.

Anything can happen. The rangers have shown how easily a team can win three straight in a series in these playoffs, and have also shown they're capable of losing three straight. That said, to be up 3-1, with Eovaldi going tonight and Monty going Friday if need be, is about as good a scenario as the rangers could've asked for after coming to arizona tied 1-1. Let's just get it tonight and the fans can celebrate with the team when they get back home.

Both teams going with bullpen games today. Unfortunate that the rangers had to burn Gray yesterday, but man was he good in the win.

Hoping Sborz is good, too. Didn’t like them having to come out and check him. He’s been lights out

Massive win. If you’d have bet me that Texas would be up 2-1 off the strength of their bullpen, I would’ve lost a lot of money.

It spiraled on them. Kind a weird situation where the game’s out of reach so you don’t want to burn important bullpen arms, but you still hate to see a 9-1 win where everyone gets to hit off of someone throwing meatballs and maybe gets themselves going.

After giving it some thought while weedeating, I’ll make a deal with y’all. Let’s just agree for y’all to feel that I’m just being whiny because my team lost, and I’ll agree to feel that if it were on the other foot and happened to your team that I believe you would react differently. There’s maybe a little truth and a little falseness to both beliefs, and now we can just get back to being friends and talking about the next game of the series. Deal?

Sure thing. Probably no point in commenting on every single post I make, then 😉 and lastly, we saw different games because we have different levels of interest in the outcome, but I’ve posted the factual evidence that I’m not just “being a Homer”. This isn’t evadale vs Silsbee where a few missed calls are irrelevant, like you’re trying to make it out to be. It’s two very even teams on the biggest stage, and noticeable umpire biased, even if it’s coincidental, is an issue. The corresponding adjustments that one team HAS to make, and one team GETS to make, is also an issue. If the umps can’t call a decent game, get robo umps.

If it doesn’t cost your team a game, and I clearly stated that there’s no way to know that this had any effect on the outcome in this one, there’s not much reason to complain. You can poke away, it doesn’t bother me. Although in this case I don’t think it’s really fair to say that I’m playing the woulda coulda shoulda game, other than stating the fact that the umpire shoulda done better.
