[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1183577" timestamp="1330005050"] [quote author=5 on 5 link=topic=96239.msg1183496#msg1183496 date=1329969394] This forum is not as enjoyable as it was in the days before Dickie V. Not because you have an opinion, we all do. We also enjoy some lighthearted criticism of one another's team. Your criticism is not lighthearted or constructive. It is simply intended to stir the pot and demoralize. We all enjoy reading positive things about our team, but at the same time fully understand our team's weaknesses and shortcomings. It becomes increasingly annoying to have the negative criticism on every single thread. We may not have your basketball background, and may not have enjoyed the ride you did on Boutte's coattails, but we also have some basketball knowledge. This is a "fans forum", not a coaches forum. Let me ask this. How many of us would become monetary contributors to Setxsports if Dickie V would mysteriously disappear? I would!  ;D [/quote] Not gonna happen...I have an opinion like anyone else, except mine may be coming from an entirely different place...A place from which MOST on here just don't get..Its NOT criticism, its analysis from watching them play AND KNOWING THE GAME.  Its a difference...As far as riding coattails go, you have said that several times, and I have responded to that ignorance...not going to address it again...say what you want. As long as I continue to follow forum rules, I will be here, so accept that....When I am coaching again, I will no longer post on here... ;) [quote author=baddog link=topic=96239.msg1183573#msg1183573 date=1330004810] I only look forward to meeting people I respect or admire. To taunt people and then ask to meet them is to bestow celebrity upon oneself. I simply don't see it. Talk sports? He only talks DV. [/quote] Correction...you may not LIKE me, (which is dumb, since you don't KNOW me) but you WILL respect me...Or stay out of my presence, and disrespect me privately and behind a screen name....I am done with that one, sir, and you have a good day... [/quote] Who said anything about liking you? I just don't respect or admire you, and respect is not commanded or demanded as you would have it. Are we threatening now? Guess you are not the only one who canpush buttons. Now who is the irate one? Have a blessed day......and the Ozen thread has one post.

I only look forward to meeting people I respect or admire. To taunt people and then ask to meet them is to bestow celebrity upon oneself. I simply don't see it. Talk sports? He only talks DV.

I'm laughing right now. Who are you trying to convince with that last line, me or yourself? Good night DV.

Why aren't you on the Ozen thread? You care what people think about your opinion or you wouldn't offer it as much as you do. As for value, it is more valuable to you. I never said Ned could beat Yates but for you to spin it that way says a lot.

Still zero hits on the Ozen thread. Why is he here? Can't he give his valid insight to another team? I'm not upset. You give yourself way too much credit.....as always. Just trying to figure why you have to be on every Ned thread when you are obviously not a fan. Even though you are a coach, I don't put much value on your opinion.

Still zero hits on the Ozen thread. What I said about character is telling it like it is. I think you ex-coaches are the mess.

Dickie, you need to post on the Ozen thread. There are zero hits. Instead of talking your team up, you come on here to dis mine, while you keep your Yates in your hip pocket. Says something about character.

A man I work with, who isn't from Nederland but has been following them all year, told me I missed one heckuva game. He told me Ned was awesome when they came on late in the game. Games like this show why you should never take anyone lightly.

Best place to lose it is at the end.

[quote name="octfeb" post="1182597" timestamp="1329879205"] Good game Dayton ;)..Good luck to Nederland.. Yall gonna need it barely beating such a weak team like Dayton (according to yall) ::) [/quote] Don't make blanket statements like that. I never said Dayton was weak, so that shoots the heck out of it. Good win Dogs. It's the playoffs

Ummmmm.......After what happened, don't you think future opponents should be warned that this may happen? It's a mentality of the players. The coaches and "adults" didn't cut them loose. If these kids can't hold back their anger any better than that, then they should not be allowed to even play organized sports. Let's keep making excuses for the truly guilty. It's part of why they act as they do. Someone always tells them it's someone else's fault.

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1181902" timestamp="1329848626"] [quote author=stevenash link=topic=96331.msg1181889#msg1181889 date=1329847932] Come on now, Dicky.  You know darn well you will be coming to the HJ gym so you mingle with the rest of the Ned faithful. [/quote] After watching all of that talent last night at the Yates/Wheatley game, I may fall asleep watching all of that "intellectual" brain power on the HJ floor tonight...  ;D [/quote] It should perk them right up just knowing you are there.

Why would anyone want to play a team and put on notice that something like this might happen? Says a lot about the players themselves, not the coaches or "adults". The UIL is soft. No place for this type of behavior in sports period! Maybe if we keep slapping wrists, we will end up like European soccer matches.

How about neither team should be allowed to even play football against anyone for fear that an "incident" might occur? I think the probation without any type of playoff suspension or denial of a district championship is a mere slap on the wrist. Assault and battery is not a sport of any type that I know of. What happens if their probation is broken and what type of "incident" is required for a stiffer penalty to be served?

In a three-way playoff, what are the scenarios for the non-winners.......what place money do they get and how does it affect the field who were not involved in the playoff?

I guess everyone on the team was a senior, and so was everybody involved in the fight. As far as I know, punishing the group for the actions of a few (this was slightly more than a few) is the norm, not something I just invented. I really can't see anyone being able to punish only those involved. There were too many.

[quote name="skipmeister" post="1180058" timestamp="1329507306"] I hoped the probation included a postseason ban for one to two years. That's what should both teams get for their involvement! Representing your school in the postseason should not be a right in my opinion! [/quote] I totally agree with this, even as far as denying any district championships also. Time to quit making excuses and making dang sure that this will not be tolerated. Anyone who is willing to overlook this as just some kids getting caught up in the moment is delusional.

Definition of blow hard....take your pick.......I'm joking of course.  ;) I kinda like the Urban Dictionary version. [Hidden Content]

You mean just because we won district titles in every major sport in 2011 and basketball (so far) in 2012 , we can't toot our horn? We must be doing something right to get an all caps post from the biggest blow hard around ( kidding of course)

How selfish of me. Congrats to Mr. Singleton on a fine season. I was just so happy to see one of our players win, I forgot to give kudos to the other winner. My apologies.

Nederland is #1 seed, Central is #2. [/quote]Good deal. North Forrest it is. [/quote] Just noticed that CE King and North Forest are tied for 2nd. Has that seeding been decided already? Will they have a play-in game or did King win BOTH meetings? [/quote] Nope. They flipped for the seed this morning. NF won flip and is #2 seed, King is #3 seed. [/quote] Ok. Thanks. What does King have? Does Central match up favorably against them? [/quote] CE King is more of a guard oriented team. They do have a couple of bigs in '6"5 Woodson and '6"4 Anderson, with Anderson being the better player, averages 12 points and 8 boards. Hardy, the two guard, is the player for that team, averaging 16 points a game. If Central keeps that defensive intensity up like they have shown lately, I expect the Jaguars to beat CE King. [/quote] Got any insight into the Ned matchup?

Alright Corbin!!!

Great win over a quality team. Really thought the score would be much closer. Let's Go Dogs!

[quote name="jesusfreak" post="1177879" timestamp="1329258331"] There won't be a tie... Bears win  :) [/quote] LCM has a very good team. Ned will have hit their shots.

.....and DV gets the last word. Who cares what you think about our program? I don't but will defend our kids and town. Move on to something else DV. We know your POV.
