I guess if a team can keep a coach long enough, he can develop an MO. You are dead wrong on this one as usual. Lots of other teams want to schedule the LMs and Brenhams, but it's up to Neumann to play them all just to keep you pacified. Who are the powerhouses that Ozen has been accustomed to scheduling? Inquiring minds want to know. Been brushing up on your Latin lately? :

Is Football REALLY "king" in SE Texas? Numbers say NO!!!

It takes a real caring individual to poke fun at one of the few sports a paraplegic can play. You get my vote for He-man of the year. Good job. -
Is there another team on here who can say that they are playing the same pre-district teams they played 5 years ago? If not, then I guess you are afraid of those teams too.

LeBron shows just how easy it is

He needs to be introduced to Meadowlark Lemon's half-court hook, which he could make 9 out of 10 times. ;D -
Larry Bird....the consummate player

Chaz, 14 other teams were ousted, including your spurs. It didn't matter where they were ranked either. For now, as you say, 1st place feels kinda good, especially without their ''Star'' player in McGrady. Take the star player off a lot of the other teams and see if they go on win streaks.

My thoughts from another thread..... My Rockets beat the sucky spurs today....what a game. Rockets are a better team without (always hurt) mcgrady. rockets take over first place.

THE PROPOSED BISD MULTI-PURPOSE CENTER....WOW!!!!
baddog replied to BearWolf's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
WB, has anyone come up with any scenarios for three high school teams playing in one stadium? Surely one team will be away, while one of the two remaining will play Saturday. Nice video. -
One other note about the equipment and I will let this one go. The 7200 to 7300 yard courses Jack played on with his style of clubs and golfballs, would equate to the courses having to be about 8000 yards with today's bigger drivers, composite shafts, and hotter golfballs with more dimples. I'm done.

Agree to disagree. I will say again that Tiger would have won some tournaments and some majors against these guys, but I don't think he would have as many as he has now, due to the lack talented players each week with majors of their own under their belts. Here is something I found today and it pretty much explains my position.... One other point about Jack's 18 majors: he had to beat all manner of men who were hellbent on winning. Some of them, really, were a little crazy. (These golfers won at least two majors in the Nicklaus years): Gary Player, Arnold Palmer, Billy Casper, Fuzzy Zoeller, Hubert Green, Raymond Floyd, Johnny Miller, Hale Irwin, Andy North, Tom Watson, Dave Stockton, Lee Trevino, David Graham, Julius Boros, Seve Ballesteros, Tony Jacklin. As a group, they beat Nicklaus more often than he beat them, and he still got to 18. Here's the fivesome of golfers who have won multiple majors since Tiger won his first major in April 1997: Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Phil Mickelson, Retief Goosen and Mark O'Meara. (Jose Maria Olazabal, Lee Janzen and Payne Stewart, all multiple major winners, each won one after April 1997.) The Els fivesome would have won in any era, including Jack's, but even combined they don't match Woods.

To hear you tell it, you are the best at everything on this message board!!!!!! Well, I don't have an uncle who played pro golf, so I guess my opinion doesn't count. Like I said, Tiger would win and would win some majors, but you are as good as your competition. I really thought Singh and Els (Mr. perfect swing) would have done better than they have. When Rocco Mediate is the best thing going, and he can be beaten with a bum knee, well that tells me something. I promise to watch more tournaments and try to learn some of the young guys. Maybe someone will surface. BTW, I like Tiger Woods.
-
Lazeek, please don't act like you are the only one who has watched golf or your opinion is the only one that can possibly be right. I respect everyone's opinion, but I also have my own. Tiger Woods is the #1 player in the world today, there is no denying that. Had Woods played in Jack's heyday, he would have had to play against the likes of Palmer, Player, Trevino, Watson, Floyd, Johnny Miller, Greg Norman, ...need I continue? This is a handful, but there are more who fit the category of being able to win also....Stadler, Weiskopf, Kite, Crenshaw....etc. Then come the majors and the like of Ballesteros, Faldo, Langer...etc. Tiger would have played and won against these guys, no doubt, but Tiger has had plenty of tournaments where he had to make his famous charge on the final round. Not only would these guys also be making their charge (Watson and Faldo come to mind quickly), which would put more pressure on Tiger, but also the simple fact that these guys did not choke to allow such a charge to beat them, except for maybe Norman. Let Ray Floyd get out to a 3 or 4 shot lead in the final round, it was curtains, because not only did he play bogey free golf to sustain a lead, he continued to make birdies. He was known as the toughest to catch. I liked him almost as much as Jack. Maybe this doesn't make sense to you, but it is what I know and what I suspect would be the case. I sure wish Jack could have teed off with a ''Big Bertha''. ;D

Huffman's new stadium! - **New Pictures posted 6/26/09**
baddog replied to bobtex's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Man, if we ever do anything to upgrade our stadium and facilities, I hope it's half as nice as this. Good job! -
All the more reason I should have heard some of their names then!!!!!! It really doesn't matter. There is no competition like when Jack played. I can name more of them if you like.

Thanks Buc. I know not everybody is going to agree with my opinions, and that's cool. I just have to say what I believe in. I am so sick and tired of worrying about whether or not I offend someone, that I actually see if I can get under someone's skin just to even things out. TVC, how can we ever expect a reversal on Roe vs. Wade if the SOBs won't die? It doesn't have to be every 4 years. That is your time frame. Ten would be fine with me. I think the Lord's Prayer can be used for Muslims and Buddhists. God takes on different names, but they are still worshiping a Supreme being. It may be awkward, but it could work. Still, why should it offend? if seeing someone pray offends, then just turn one's head. Kinda like changing the channel on your TV. Your last one kills me. Why should any law benefit grieving minority religions and non-believers?
-
Drive for show and putt for dough. The only other player in this tournament ahead of Tiger that I have heard of, besides Mickelson, is Jim Furyk.
-
Atheists have the right not to believe in any God, that is not what I meant. Since they don't believe in any God and can exclaim it at any point without concern of offending me, then why don't I have the same right to pursue my beliefs without worrying about offending them? What we have here is a decay of the moral fabric of this country.

Tiger tries to win every time he goes out. He tied for 9th this week. Just think how tough it would be if he had some competition. :
-
Here's the problem.... 1. Supreme Court Justices should not be appointed for lifelong terms. 2. We had Bible class in my high school years with no problems whatsoever....what is so different today? 3. This country is majority Christian, which in a Democracy...rules. If a Christian prayer is led, and you don't want to participate....don't! No one is forcing their religion upon you. 4. The Lord's Prayer is so universal in it's wording, that I see no reason for it to offend anyone of religious faith. We are pacifying the atheists only, and who cares about them. 5. Christians have sat back let this happen to themselves and watched it progress to what it is today. We are so afraid of offending someone else, that we forget about our rights. Remember, there is no such thing as being fair. To be fair to one side, you must be unfair to the another. 6. I believe the interpretation of separation of church and state has been skewed. 7. Lastly, why does the negative side seem to carry more weight than the majority?
-
Quite the contrary. They are a better team without him. That's why they had a 8 out of 9 win streak a few games back. The one they lost was a fluke or they were trying to lose. : Let's see how the Mavs fare without Dirk.
-
Yep, any time there is an upset, the team that loses was trying to lose.....or it was a fluke....yeah right. Great mentality. Go McGradyless Rockets!
-
I think taking Jack Nicklaus in his prime over this field of players is a safe bet. In fact, I dare anyone to come up with five players in golf today,that could even rival the likes of Tom Watson, Lee Trevino, Gary Player, Raymond Floyd, or Nick Faldo....all in their prime of course.

Tiger goes down to Tim Clark in second round!!!!!
baddog replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Wow, Tim Clark ranked 22nd in the world beats Tiger. Now that's what I consider a good challenge. OK, let's hear it for the knee surgery.
