Impressive results by Silsbee today. The temptation is to say, "especially considering the players they are missing." However, that is kind of misleading. While the players playing football ALL can play, there isn't a significant drop off with what they have playing now. When you talk about their depth, it is consistent depth. The key is going to be finding a balance or flow in distributing minutes. In some ways, it is an easier coaching situation while the others are in football.

Most of the time, I am just responding to something someone else said (usually something so dumb I can't let it go). I suppose I should leave more alone though. I've noticed you have trouble biting your tongue too. I've also noticed you almost never post anything negative about any school unless it's a comment on something someone else said.

You mean like when our games are the highest rated of the week? By the way Mr. Pee Pee Envy, while you are spending another day reading everything you can about Texas and the Big 12, can you enlighten us on what the two most watched games in college football history have in common? We'll hang up and listen....

Duke gonna have back to back #1 classes.

I think he's talking about district, not state. Central was a heavy favorite to win that district without Chris IMO. Throwing in a 7'3" kid probably strengthens that position, especially when your strongest "competition" was already Charmin soft inside.

I'm with you. Never dated my cousins either. Maybe both are a product of having one's eyes set too close together.

OU is OU. They win out, they are in. The human element of the committee will always favor the marquee teams. Not fair, but it's the way it works. Premier historical programs will get preference over little sister schools.

Agreed. Same with TCU, OSU or OU.

Yeah you need to dumb it down for me. Because I had no idea what you were talking about. Conversely, I have no doubt you actually do have NO idea what we are talking about. Because of the sad little world you scamper around in, it probably seems normal. There are a litany of bad losses or unimpressive wins for all conferences. But the committee justified the Bama win in part based on the FPI. You know, that poll where the Big 12 (I.e., the conference that inhabits your dome) possesses the top 3 spots. And the poll where Baylor is ranked #1. It is comical though. Same thing last year - sec dominated the early polls and you jumped from thread to thread, slobbering all over yourself with pride because I guess you felt a vicarious accomplishment for aggy. So again, congrats little buddy

Cleveland may be the worst franchise in sports. Feel sorry for Duke Johnson. Guy is dynamic when he touches it and they can't seem to figure out how to get a RB the ball. Good thing the folks there have the Cavs.

The fact that you don't even see it demonstrates the depth of your delusion/obsession. That and the sheer volume of posts you make regarding the Big 12. But we all know the root of your hostility. The consistent inability of the Ags to compete in the conference would naturally make one bitter.

But there aren't many teams in the GT that I would put as favorites against Silsbee regardless of classification. Or HJ for that matter. They would each be decided favorites against both of the 6A schools IMO.

I agree. Not sure how Silsbee finds an answer for Pearson and Atwood. They are as big or bigger as most posts they face in 4A, with better skill sets than most all the guards they will play. Can't press them with success - plays right into their hands. As for the big man, feet are way above average, unreal for his size. Getting up and down the floor is his strength. Shocks people with his times at camps. Guess that's what growing up playing soccer does for one. I would think he has very little pressure on the offensive end. Board work and put backs will earn him plenty of stats. On the defensive end, it's really impossible to imagine how he alters the game until you face it.

Stop drinking on week nights ;)

I wonder if life is easier living each day, finding moral victories in the accomplishments/shortcomings of others? Do they teach that at Gomer camp? I doubt it though. Probably feels as much like a miserable loser at it appears...

Yes, Vern-o and Gary are delightful...

I saw JJ and Travon square off in Atlanta a few months ago. Was a great matchup. That's not the issue for SATCH. Their matchup issues aren't with Duval. Terrence Ferguson, Billy Preston, and Mark Vital?? Wayyy different stories. Could be a beatdown. Hopefully JJ can keep em in it.

No I don't. I don't know if anyone in the state can hang with API. But I guess if some think API will win by 40, it will be closer than some think. API would be favored by 20 or so IMO. I don't know if the other game will be especially close. But I do consider arguably the best player in the state going against one of the best teams in the state to be a good game to see.

^ No joy in Nederville today :'-(

Me too about mid morning on with a break at the game around lunch. After Central, the SATCH - API game won't necessarily be close b/c API is one of the better teams in the country. But Trevon Duval and JJ Caldwell going at it will be worth the admission. The Cy Lakes vs Atascocita should be a very good one with DeAaron Fox against a very solid backcourt of Carsen Edwards and Greg Shead.

not what I meant. Touchy! Just giving you a heads up about a fun game to watch. You're getting a little too sensitive Soulja. You may need to move to the forum right under this one ;)

You wanna see how the PG position is supposed to be played, stick around for the game after Central-Victory Prep at the Hoopsgiving Classic. You'll see two of the best you will see at the HS level going at it from the 1.

They certainly got it right last year, after all the complaining about tOSU. Well, almost. Based on the absolute beatdown TCU laid on Ole Miss, you could argue they belonged in instead of FSU. But no way you can leave out an undefeated defending National Champion.

Now you do Just kidding with you - it's all good my man.

Bet! No, I mean I will put up 2 separate trips. You buy one meal if Central sweeps the two district games. If Ozen wins one or both, I buy two separate meals at different times. So giving you 2 to 1 on your bet. and doggie bags allowed on both trips. I can't finish one either.
