Dodgers.

yup, they're in bad shape this year WITH him in the lineup.

and HJ is going to lose by a lot more than 1.

easy... all he was saying was that BC is the only team in district that HJ can compete with (unless they catch OF playing the way they did before the last two weeks). he wasn't dogging your boys.

how long did it take you to come up with all this? it would've taken me until after district was over. thanks for the input!

yup. of course a +30 karma doesn't look so good when someone's been smited 400 times .

who knows... i'm down -8 since last night when i checked it last, and i'm having trouble remembering posting anything that was too controversial. it's all for grins and giggles anywho.

i'm with you man... i don't necessarily have to agree with the post, but it has to be well thought out, well worded, and be based on some form of rational thinking.

in theory that sounds alright, but can you imagine how the players would feel if the coach told them to give up and take a knee midway through the fourth quarter? i know i wouldn't do it. at least run the ball. keep the clock running, without completely giving up. i would leave a game if the coach of my team had them kneel because they were getting blown out.

i know my senior year we were 8-0 and looked ready to make a deep playoff run. our qb, rb, and fb all got hurt in a span of 6 quarters, and we didn't win another game. if the players that stepped in to fill their shoes had been getting time every game, we never would've started 8-0. on a sidenote, one of the beautiful things about HS football (at least in the smaller classifications), is that a lot of the backups and backup's backups see a lot of time on special teams, where they get a chance on every kickoff to make a big play that could change the game.

great, now they can spend copious amounts of money on lackluster pitching. i hope they actually use the money to get some quality starters.

i think BOJO was a good idea, and the fans embraced it. the problem they ran into was that maybe this whole BOJO thing got the community buzzing about the program this year, and then they couldn't live up to the expectations.

this would definitely be easier to predict after watching a few early games, but i'm going to say 19-10, and that's after buying into the fact that the conference coaches have picked them so high. I hope they can get past their inconsistencies and tear it up this year.

this seems a bit excessive. they might be capable of putting up that score, but i doubt the coach will allow it to happen.

nederland is more than capable of beating both of these teams... of course i bet they wish they were finishing up with lcm and vidor.

i was being sarcastic because of the "BMT Kelly in 22-4a" thread that's been floating around. there are a few people on there who firmly believe that not only would kelly make the playoffs, they would win the district.

The goal for many players is just to suit up. If you're winning by 60, get everyone in the game. If you're losing by 60, get your starters out. If you're in a tight game, you want your best players on the field. You'll find that the players also want the best players out on the field. If you have a 2000 yard running back, his backup isn't gonna get offended if he's not touching the ball in tie game.

Why isn't Kelly an option? ;D

they changed it so that you have to make 200 posts before you can smite.

I was wondering the same thing. Coop, is there any way (or need) to clear out inactive accounts. Like if someone doesn't post for 6 months our something?

I've actually come to the conclusion that i've made someone mad in the past, because anytime i'm not on for awhile i come back and i've dropped a point. it doesn't matter if i haven't made a post in a week, or if i haven't disagreed with anyone. i wouldn't worry too much about it. it's nice to get karma from people who respect your posts, but in the end it means nothing. some of my favorite posters on here have karma around -40.

another thing i've noticed on here that these two teams have in common is their fans. PNG is a little more vocal, but for the most part, they're both pretty respectful towards everyone and down to earth. i haven't had a single problem with any indian or bruin fans.

i think it depends on the situation. if the team is gathering at the middle of the field only because it is the middle of the field, that's ok. if they're gathering at the middle of the field, blatantly stamping and messing up the grass on the opponents' logo, that's going to be a problem.

i rooted against them, but man they were good. colorado played hard, but they didn't stand a chance. even if they'd pulled out a win somewhere, they just would've had to face beckett again.
