Heck with the calls, it seemed to those of us sitting where we were that they were not even putting scores on the board. Early on, Silsbee had 4 points, made a two, and the scoreboard never changed. Then, later Jasper made a three, and the board did not change. Jasper coach appealed, but after a long discussion, didn't get the points. Were they THAT bad on the score-keeping, or did we miss something?

I think Jasper had a flat night last night. Bailey and Stubblefield were missing open three's that normally are gimmes for them. If a few more of those had fallen, it would have been a wide open game. By the way, anyone know what happened with the one three that Stubblefield did hit? It was a clear, no question net swish and the scoreboard did not change. The Jasper coach appealed, but they did not give Jasper the basket.

On a serious note, I think it showed just how athletic those little boys are. Honestly, I was amazed. Now the Dogs must get serious again. HJ will be tough.

Good picks, but I will take the Jasper Dogs in another major upset.

Yes, a bit over the top. But this was without question the biggest basketball victory in Jasper's history. I was impressed at how many Dogs could do flips like that. When they quit playing basketball maybe they can become cheerleaders. ;D

We heard the same thing about Navasota so I wouldnt put to much stock in anything yet True. As Yogi said, it aint over til it's over.

Crow eating accepted. Thanks. Now, good luck in baseball. Until you meet up with Jasper! ;D

Thanks for coming in for your helping. You were just backing your team. That is what you are supposed to do. I thought about starting a crow thread, but then I decided that would be tacky. I know you guys are hurting right now.

No, just a few posters talk crap. My heart goes out to the rest of them. I know they are hurting right now.

I think I was the ONLY one to pick Jasper. They are good Dogs!

Speed: Jasper Athleticism: Jasper Shooting: Tie Basketball Acumen: HJ I would agree. It should be a VERY good game tomorrow. Good luck HJ.

Congratulations HJ on the victory. See you tomorrow!

Okay. Thanks. I confess. I out and out lied. ;D Now, do you think the Dogs can sneak up on HJ? No, just kidding. I know that HJ respects Jasper. I know their coaches stayed to scout them. They didn't need to scout Silsbee, they already know Silsbee. I will be serious from here on. Maybe.

Well said. Silsbee, you had Jasper's complete respect. That is why the Dogs played so hard.

I don't remember what I said. I said a lot of things recently poking fun at the fans giving Jasper "no chance". Most things I said was meant to be taken as polite sarcasm. If anyone was offended, I apologize. Thank you for for your positive comment about Jasper. But here is how I picked the game in the "Pickems". I think I was the ONLY one on this Board to stand up for the Dogs on the "Pickems". This game was surely a shocker to those people not watching Jasper lately, but it was not a shocker to the Jasper team and the fans who have been watching them get better and better every game and every week.

yes, the Bullpups are calling him out! Praise Bailey, Praise Spikes, Praise Bailey, Praise Spikes And Bailey did not even have one of his better shooting nights and the little Dogs STILL won! Yes, AAW you did disrespect the Dogs and the entire 18-3a district. You probably still think they could not have made the playoffs out of 21-3a? Well go ahead and pick against the Dogs for tomorrow. Eventually you will get it right. To the Silsbee players and other fans: You all were great. Great team. Great season. Be proud of what you accomplished.

I am off to the games. Good luck to everyone except Silsbee.

This is absolutely ridiculous and embarrassing. Do not post if you cannot form a sentence. And, don't make this a "black thing" - it's an "uneducated thing". I have heard plenty of people who are not black from rural areas and southwest Louisiana speak and write this way. A little humor and irony never hurts anybody. It is not a "black" thing, and it is not necessarily an uneducated thing. I see horrible grammar and spelling posted on these boards from people that I KNOW have college degrees. That disturbs me much more than someone using creative language to poke fun at some of these ridiculous posts.

it means the poster is trying to move the thread to the top of the board so other will notice it. a polite way to say tt ;D.

No, good luck to HJ and Jasper!
