Mufasa, you must understand that with H.D. 55 is all about what you had not what you have right now.  He tends to live in the past way to much.  Good luck to both teams

[quote name="True Blue" post="886197" timestamp="1287932417"] I am not blaming Evadales playoff record on a weak dist. just saying that they have not had to play in a game that has made them give 100% for 4 qrs. And the first time that has happen has been in the playoffs and they have not answered that call yet. But the fact that the UIL has watered down the playoffs is just like giving ever kid that playes little leauge a trophy no matter if they won or not. [b]Life is not always fair, and sometimes you dont all win[/b], [b]there are losers sometimes, but life goes on[/b]. If you think that by posting all there scores on a sports post is puting down team you need to move to a sunday school class post.. They may play soft there... [/quote] Life nots always fair, so is that why you pulled your kid out of Evadale, then E.C., then H.J. and sent him back to Evadale.  And by the way it's Their scores not There scores. Unless they have already got there scores there. ;D

[/quote] How do you get that they worked and earned it Burkeville will be 5 and 3 with 2 wins comming against Legacy, and High Island will be 4 and 5 with only 1 dist win :( Come on there is no way anyone earned anything.. As far as me moving if it helps him get to the next level I will move 3 more this year, but the money I am spending is mine not everone else in the school dist. And As for my Evadale Rebs they will be 9 and 0 going into the playoffs. That is earning it......Just wish you all better luck in Basketball.... [/quote] Did these kids not go through two-a-days like everyone else?  Did they not line up on Friday nights and play games like everyone else?  Way I see it they did and if they earn a playoff spot then they should get to play it and enjoy the experience just like everyone else in the state who made it.  Would you feel that way if Evadale was 5 - 3 or 4 - 5 making the playoffs.  Basically just let the kids enjoy the moment!  And it's everyone not everone

[quote name="Burkeville Chronicle" post="886167" timestamp="1287928705"] ..with that being said TrueBlue, I will go back to what I have heard many Evadale posters say (and I agree)..you cant choose the district that your in. Instead of putting down those schools on a public forum, why not encourage the district to do well in the playoffs. Your opinions are your opinions however. Just remember TrueBlue..all glory is fleeting! [/quote] I agree with you on that one.  But when kids do their best (which may not be up to other standards) you don't fault them.  Support them, watered down or not the UIL set these things up and thats that.

[quote name="knows2much" post="875368" timestamp="1287163058"] It is a sad day in high school football when these 2 teams play each other to determine 2nd place of a district.  It is possible...even probable...for 1 of these teams to have gone 2 and 8 and be a #2 seed in the playoffs.  Yikes... [/quote] Actually High Island is sitting at 3 - 3 right now.  No chance of being 2 - 8 especially when you only get to play 9 games.

[quote name="H-D BOBCAT 55" post="838519" timestamp="1283577321"] This was a major upset !!! Colmesneil was picked over Hull-Daisetta to make the playoffs. Wonder if the RB for Colmesneil ran well? [/quote] He had a couple of big runs, but went out with a shoulder injury in the first half. 

Hard fought game by both teams.  Congrats Cards on the win and to Coach Charrier on his first head coaching victory.

High Island girls will be there

Yes, good luck to all of you.  And take that extra step and make it to regionals.

[quote name="Aiden1" post="774701" timestamp="1268257368"] Listen! I am from Woodville and went to every game. When you play an easy schedule such as the Zavalla Tourney and so on and no real comp that is how you get 600 wins and go undefeated. I would of much rather lost 10 games to really good ball clubs than what happened to us this year. Agree? [/quote] I think that some of the teams in Woodville's district will disagree with you about being weak.  Yes, I know that they played High Island (and H.I. got better by playing them) and he told the H.I. coach that he caught alot of flake about playing them, but the fact is that the man has done a good job with a good group of girls.  Would you be like this if they had won it all and he had left?

Congrats to Emily Prichard of High Island for making it.  She had an unbelievable year.  Congrats to the girl for Daisetta and from Evadale as well.

Congrats to the Lady Rebs from High Island.  Good luck at the Regional Tournament.

Here's my take on it, when you make Woodville play half court ball, they just can't do it.  They want to get out and run and Hardin kept them from doing that.  I never had a chance to see E.C. play.  But congrats to both of them for their accomplishments this year and congrats to Hardin and good luck to them in the next round.

[quote name="Bobcat05" post="760195" timestamp="1266284387"] Hardin - 121 Milburn - 18 [/quote] Didn't they get beat like that last year also (Milburn)

[quote name="picnroll" post="760048" timestamp="1266263625"] Must have been a good one. The ladies have much improved and congrats on a great season. Has your coach given any thought of requesting to play up instead of going DIV 2 next year. You sure will have some traveling to do in your new Division. Just wondering. I dont know what the enrollment at HI is but it would seem beneficial to request to play up because of cost. Plus I think you have a shot at playoffs in Div.1 next season. None of my business but we love going to the beach ;D [/quote] From what I've heard, H.I. is going to stay DII.  And from what their coach has said, they could make the playoffs in that division as well.  With all of the team returning next year (minus two seniors), they could do extremely well next year.  But it's off to softball for them now.

Good luck Lady Rebs in the playoffs from H.I.

25A playin game (3rd place) West Hardin  58 High Island  55

This was a very entertaining game, I just hated to see the Lady Cards lose.  But keep your heads up ladies the strides that you have made over the past couple of years is unbelievable, you will get there believe me.  Congrats to West Hardin and good luck in the playoffs

25A 3rd place play in game, will be played in Evadale on Friday starting @ 6:00.  Good luck to both teams.
