  1. only a sophomore. Looks like he was at Strawn last year? Not surprised he moved, but would've thought he might have moved to a bigger school.
  2. While we’re addressing that, why not also address school districts like Houston (196k students) and Dallas (154k students) being allowed to participate in 3A, 4A, and 5A playoffs due to school size, while pulling talent to those teams from all across the city. For the most part not a big deal in football, but the basketball playoffs are a joke in 4A and 5A. The success Silsbee (2700 students in the district) has managed playing in what has become a big school tournament has been nothing short of extraordinary.
  3. more like ignorant coaches. kids today are soft, no argument there, but putting them in the hospital isn't how you fix it. if a coach makes kids do work that they physically are incapable of doing and badly hurts them, that's on the coach, not the kid or parent. it's the coach's responsibility to build up the child's ability to do the work. Of course, these coaches seem to understand that concept just fine until they're mad and want to punish the kids for something. That was the case here, and also at Hamshire-Fannett a few years ago. The coaches get pissed, and then all of a sudden they forget that it's their responsibility to keep their athletes safe. Work them to the point of hospitalization, then play dumb and act like they didn't do anything wrong. Your reference to North Shore doesn't really work, because North Shore isn't putting their players in the hospital. If they did, there would be plenty of complaints. That said, it's not an issue. while those coaches work their players very hard, they do it responsibly, unlike the coach here from Rockwall Heath.
  4. Walmart closing ALL Portland stores after historic theft rise (msn.com) Absolutely love this. These ultra-woke cesspools are starting to feel some consequences for their actions. Rising crime has bothered a lot of them, but businesses shuttering and moving away will hurt just as bad, if not worse.
  5. There may have been another thread on this, but i didn't see it. Usually with these kinds of stories I assume that it's being overinflated by folks on the other side of the aisle, whether it be a dem or a rep. That said, AOC violated some important congressional laws here, and there's plenty of evidence to back it up. Will anything happen? Probably not. Both sides get away with stuff just as bad all the time. But it would be nice to see her face some repercussions.
  6. AOC's lawyer warned she was NOT allowed to accept her $35,000 Met Gala ticket from Vogue (msn.com)
  7. If I were going to pick BUs opponent out of the four, Brennan would be it. Should have a very good shot of making it to the finals to face Lake Highlands.
  8. Edit your first post in the thread and you can change it to whatever you want
  9. Regardless whether it’s DeSoto or Brennan, BU should be a decent favorite. Atascocita beat Brennan by 20, and they have some other so-so losses. DeSoto lost a couple of district games that were against subpar competition, including to 12-21 Waxahachamacallit
  10. So it looks like state is DeSoto, Brennan, Lake Highlands, and BU?
  11. This was the game where everything came together for BU to get upset. Two lucky buzzer beaters to keep clear falls in it early. Sloppy play and bad turnovers by United, and a great game plan and execution by Clear Falls. A lot of tough calls going against United for most of the second half. But they found a way to get it done! What an incredible accomplishment to jump from 5A to 6A and still find a way back to San Antonio! Now bring home another one in the biggest classification!
  12. Great season, Silsbee! Look forward to seeing what y’all do next year with what you have returning!
  13. I thought Silsbee benefitted greatly from the refs pretty blatantly working to even out the foul count when they played HJ. Still think they would’ve won, but it could’ve gotten really interesting. So I def think it’s possible the refs have influenced this game as well, but couldn’t say for certain since my stream hasn’t worked the entire game
