I just do not understand why folks think teams should be clicking on all cylinders before the season even starts. Skip if it is still this bad come week 4 or 5, then bitch.

Big Ed did a good job as OC, heard Cornel all night on Ned side. [/quote] Big Ed has some really good coaches on the offensive side and he will do just fine. I think sometimes the fans expect to see their team in mid season form in the first scrimmage. One thing that was a big difference from last year was the kids knew where to lineup and penalties were at a minimum. It was very basic and everybody just needs to get the feel of the game in their blood. Nederland had a very good defensive line from what I saw. Them boys been eating a bunch of rice and gravy  :D

The defenses on both sides

Sure is cold over here in the visitor press box admin. i should have brought my coat lol

I checked with my agent and he couldn't get me out of my current deal.  ;)

Two of my favorite coaches to call they did a great job. With a new AD in town will be intresting to see you is hired or promoted.

I doubt you take a one and a half year starter and replace him when he is going to his senior year and can really draw on that experience. I have seen to many QB's make a big leap in play from their JR to SR years. Now there could be some situations where you bring in Rutledge for some different formations, but Salter is the starter.

I get the sarcasm, and love it, but BISD Graduations were at Montagne Center at Lamar.

For you old timers, the reclassification designation is the same when they took class B and made it class A and everyone moved up a division in name only. If I remember right the UIL thought that having a class b was demeaning to the smaller schools and wanted them to have the same letter designation as everyone else. An apple is still an apple even though you call it a pear.

Very Nice, I always enjoyed calling behind him when he was catching but looks like he has found a niche in pitching.

I have no dog in this hunt, but knowing coach Smalley I think he deserves this chance. Kids will want to play for him and that means alot.

[quote name="Chester86" post="1228617" timestamp="1338911804"] I know this has probably been covered here, but I really did not want to go through 20+ pages.  Senior League game at Bridge City (13 - 16).  Two outs and runners at first and second.  A ground ball is hit to the 5/6 hole between short-stop and third base.  The short-stop comes up to make the play and as he fields the ball is ran into by the runner coming from second to third base.  The collision knocks the short-stop sideways but he is still able to get a throw off.  The umpires stated it was "incidental" contact, and ruled everyone safe.  Is that the proper call, or is it a case of interference? [/quote] It is the runners obligation to not make contact with the fielder. Defensive team has the option of taking the play or the penalty. In this case there is no incidental contact none can be made by a runner. Thanks 643 for chipping in I haven't checked board been out of town.

I would say you are correct. Batter runner gets two bases from the base he occupied at the time of the throw by the infielder not from the time it went into dead ball area. Doubt he was already at first when throw was made.

doesn't matter if he is trying to bunt or not. If first base was not occupied at the time of the pitch or there are two out, a missed third strike by catcher and the batter may try to run to first. Even if you do not swing and catcher misses ball you can run to first.

I called in a series back a few years ago between Ozen and Montgomery and we played at Round Rock Westwood to get the 3 games in. I think that PNG was playing across Austin at Westlake at the same time.

[quote name="hitman009" post="1219644" timestamp="1336485130"] so what you are saying is a non starting pitcher can pitch more than once a game as long as he stays in the game/line up. correct? [/quote] And replaces the player who replaced him as the pitcher. He can not come back to pitch if there has been multiple pitching changes. That was the one really tricky part of the rule.

If a foot is completely out of the box nothing touching the line and contacts the ball, the batter is out. It is very hard for a plate umpire to see this as his focus is on the pitch coming over the plate. A good plate umpire is going to watch the ball all the way into the glove before making his call and watching a batters feet is not a priority. It's not a call you see very often and it is usually a very flagrant thing before it is called.

OK lets see if maybe I get this right cause it gets really complicated.  Starting pitcher can come back in to pitch as long as he does not violate any substitution rules, the reliever did not throw 9 or more warm up pitches, and the starting pitcher is replacing the guy that relieved him. As far as a non starter, he can pitch, go play a position and then after at least one batter can come back to pitch but can only do this once an inning.  He must stay in the game and also replace the player that relieved him. I think this is right but it is just not spelled out clearly in the rules. It is all there in bits and pieces. Teeboan challenged me to get to the bottom of this. Tee, what do you think???     

a stating pitcher can be removed as pitcher then put back in as a pitcher as long as he has not left the game. Only the starting pitcher can do this

What teams are on the playoff bubble and need to win or get help to get in?

Thats cause all the Huff kids have graduated Admin !!!  lol
