sorry speeechless, I was typing while you were posting.

Number of turnovers is not as important as points off of them, so 10 could kill you if they score each time.

Tough to lose to a team that never led in all of the regulation. [b]Got to get payback in Reed Arena.[/b] [/quote] The way Texas has been playing, you probably will.

Texas playing like crap. Throwing up 3s right and left when they should go inside. Pittman now on the bench in foul trouble.

I heard Tiger didn't even attend the sex clinic. It was someone impersonating him, but that guy had to enroll there due to the huge number of women he had slept with who thought he was Tiger.  ;D

Nederland splits with Ozen and Central and takes sole possession of second place. Way to go Bulldogs!!!

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="754052" timestamp="1265147144"] yEP, but a Big East Conference school will tame the Horns when it matters during March Madness. ;D [/quote] Let me guess.....uh, Georgetown. Now how in the world did I know that?

Now that's the way I like to see Texas play. First half was close, with Texas being down 11 but closing it to being down 4 at the break. Shutting down Anderson was huge, and then Hamilton took over. The only gripe I have is Pittman is missing shots close to the goal. If he gets on track, we have a great shot. This is for AAW.... [size=18pt]Texas Wins!!!!![/size]  [size=18pt] ;D[/size]

You won't hear woulda, shoulda, coulda from me. [b]Did UT miss any down the stretch too?[/b] [/quote] Nope. [/quote] Here's a little more than nope. Ags missed 10 FTs and Texas missed 12. Ags missed 1 FT in OT and Texas missed 3. I don't see where the misses puts you ahead.

True or not? Unfortunately it's a game I missed. You won't hear woulda, shoulda, coulda from me. Did UT miss any down the stretch too?

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="753253" timestamp="1265060771"] Coulda, woulda, shoulda. ::) But I do agree with you short. Keeping with this coulda woulda theme, tu shouldn't have defeated A&M. [/quote] AAW, you never try and discuss ways in which your team could better themselves? If so, you have to review the plays that were missed opportunities in order to correct them. Woulda, coulda, shoulda is something that outsiders interject on a thread, not about their team, in order to suggest whining. What has been discussed here is how FTs win or lose games, and how Texas has missed theirs down the stretch. Correcting these misses could well afford a few more victories, don't you think?

If overrated describes a team that has enough talent to win it all, but keeps playing under their potential and losing to teams they should beat, then I agree that it describes Texas as of late. Most basketball games are won down the stretch where FTs win or lose games. Texas didn't come through. I don't blame Brown for the loss, but you tend to count on 90% FT shooters when they get fouled late. These are the players you want the ball in their hands so that they are the ones to go to the line. It just didn't happen. Texas is too talented to have been in that situation anyway. Big tournament still ahead..... Hook 'Em

We still correspond with a host family from Virginia. They were great. My son went there to play in the World Series, but we came up short. Now that was the Senior Babe Ruth team. Good luck to your son. There is nothing quite like being a ''ballpark junkie''.  ;D

[/quote]Good to know...I wasn't around 10 yrs ago.  I have a 14 yr old that is trying out for the freshman high school team today.  I'm hoping his experience playing on the bigger Babe Ruth field will help him in playing high school ball this year. [/quote] Actually, it was closer to eight years ago. It's hard to remember all the kids, but some names just stick with you. Babe Ruth Baseball is something the kids will always remember...the parents too.

[/quote] spoonbill, I see no bullying in that post. He was just astonished that the NBR thread was a little hijacked for another league. Actually, in all your posts on this thread, I sense some anger and spite towards NBR. Do you have a problem with Nederland Babe Ruth? Really, this thread is all about kids who want to play some great baseball with kids from all over the area. What can anyone not like about that?

[quote name="bullets13" post="750669" timestamp="1264645731"] what is it you say, mike?  I guess it's time for me to start posting on here. [/quote] Dang, I can't even call them overrated!  ::)

Nederland gets an A+. Who woulda thunk they would be tied for 1st place?

Brilliant and Just response!   This policeman was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial.  The lawyer was trying to undermine the police officer's credibility...  Q:  'Officer, did you see my client fleeing the scene?'  A:  'No sir.  But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender, running several blocks away.' Q:  'Officer -- who provided this description?'  A:  'The officer who responded to the scene.'  Q:  'A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender.  Do you trust your fellow officers?'  A:  'Yes sir.  With my life.' Q:  'With your life?  Let me ask you this then, Officer.  Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?' A:  'Yes sir, we do!' Q:  'And do you have a locker in the room?'  A:  'Yes sir, I do.' Q:  'And do you have a lock on your locker?' A:  'Yes sir.' Q:  'Now why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life, you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?'  A:  'You see, sir -- we share the building with the court complex, and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room.' The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and a prompt recess was called.  The officer on the stand has been nominated for this year's 'Best Comeback' line.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="748669" timestamp="1264287133"] Good question Bobcat05. But, what Yates is doing is statewide news because of not how good this team is, but how important it is for them to show everyone, [b]leaving out class and respect along the way.[/b][/quote] How so?

No way Texas is overrated. There's a big tournament to be played. That's when it counts to be highly ranked....like #1...when it's all over. People will always take their shots at Texas. Especially if their team can't even break the top 25.

Isn't it weird how they always feel remorse for what they did when they find out how much trouble they are in? If only they had conscience BEFORE they do wrong.
