Looks like Central brought our Mid County ref's, TD Central.

upset alert.

Nice stop by Central.

The Pope was just announced in Gainesville.

Olgatree, I like him.

[quote name="adminbaberuth" post="719485" timestamp="1259438843"] Central looks good on defense, held them to force a punt. [/quote] As good as the defense looked on the first possesion of FW, the offense was just the opposite.

I don't see a name on here that can't help a kid get better.

Looks like Tiger has been using his putter off the golf course. [Hidden Content]

Phatmack, you going to pick me up? With Central advancing tomorrow, I'll drive the following week.

Where was Tiger heading at 2:30 in the morning?

78 Stang I get your drift, but if the kid can't play, no coach will play him, select or not,if he wants to win. His teamates will know if he can play also, select or not. 

[quote name="78Stang" post="716837" timestamp="1259074387"] I personally think it is a terrible idea. What I have seen first hand over the years is that a select player is an absolute distraction to a high school baseball team. What happens in most, but not all cases is that the rest of the team sees the select player a prima-donna and most of the time the player thinks of himself as such. He is usually the coach favorite and gets special treatment from the coach. The rest of the team resents that fact and he becomes an out-cast while it ruins the team chemistry from there on. The rest of the team has worked just as hard and put in just as much time practicing but they dont get the credit that select players get for doing the same thing. Select ball has ruined all levels of baseball and most parents are also to blame for getting caught up in it. But to be honest- this is the U.S.A. and money talks! [/quote] Select ball is a great asset to high school teams. The guys that run these programs are top notch and are well known on the state and national level. But, it all boils down to the player. Do they want to make the committment to make it to the next level ? It's not easy to play Div 1 baseball. Of all the kids that have played Select baseball we have only 5 that have signed.  Kirby Bellow (Nederland) Jace Statum (Orangefield) Jacob Felts (Orangefield) Matt Hicks (Bridge City) Trae Hester (Vidor) Kane Benoit (PNG) 10% of the high school players will play college. We have 30 schools in our area, x 9 players = 270. Looks like we will have 27 players play college next year, subtract the 6 that already signed that leaves 21 spots open ie. JC, Div II, Div III. If you aren't playing ball when the high school season is over, the guy that is, just might get your spot.

[i]Good read in the Enterprise this morning[/i] [size=8pt]By MARGARET TOAL November 21, 2009 Posted: November 21, 2009, 10:00 PM CST[/size]  The immortals once walked on the grass and dirt baselines of Orange's West End Park - flesh-and-blood baseball players, not ghosts or figures from a dream world. Baseball manager Branch Rickey, a teetotaler, smoked and chomped on his trademark cigar there. Slugger Rogers Hornsby likely lost his famous temper there. Connie Mack brought his Philadelphia Athletics to the park for a double-header. Baseball commissioner Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis watched a game from the stands on a March afternoon. All four are in baseball's Hall of Fame. And all four have the connection to Orange and West End Park, where the St. Louis Cardinals had their spring training camp in 1921 and 1922. And though the baseball field was used by local teams for more than 70 years after the Cardinals left, few people driving on 13th Street in Orange today would realize a baseball field ever was there. Lines for a middle school football practice field run across the old center and right fields. A 10-foot-tall mound of dirt is not far from what was once the home team dugout. Nearby, construction workers use heavy equipment and build an addition to the West Orange-Stark Middle School. The stories about the days of glory are almost gone, too.
