With so much talk about the new local 3A district having teams like Silsbee, Jasper, WO-S, and BC, I think the way Hamshire Fannett has played so far has turned some heads.

The way Bay City has played so far is a bigger surprise to me than Jasper's less than stellar play. They've given up a LOT of points the last two weeks. Defense has always been a staple of their program. I hear they're a young team. Still, on any given day... Bay City will not/should not be taken lightly.

Very nice win for Barbers Hill. Even if Jasper is having a down year, if you go into the "Boneyard" and win by 19 points, you've got something to be proud of. 19 points is equivalent to a three TD win, so it looks like you hit the target, Eagletown.

The only losing season we had was in 1983. We were 3-7.

Oh, so it's ME who gets off topic, huh? You've had quite the track record in regard to this. If someone says, "What nice weather we're having today", you'll find some way to comment on WO-S. You make more remarks about WO-S than you do about any other school, even your BH Eagles. You really ought to stick to fishing.

Thanks, Huper. You are correct. At this rate, I'll make that kind of mistake once every 100+ posts. For others, their brilliance is on display every time they say something by constantly butchering the English language and making ridiculous predictions. They remind me of what Ron White said...you can't fix stupid.

Eagletown, Yes, I remember you accepting the dish of crow, but your other post sounded like a change of heart. It doesn't matter now. Contrary to what you want to believe, I don't think WO-S in "invisable" (invincible). We have been beat, we can be beat, and like any other team, eventually we will be beat. There's no denying that by me. It's possible BH would have beaten us two years ago, the year we lost to Huffman. Last year, Wimberley was no doubt a better team than we were. There were two years when LCM was even better than us. You see...my WO-S buddies and I know how and when to accept defeat. We're not sore losers, and we respect our opponents. We even had respect for BH going into that scrimmage. I have plenty of common "since", as well, because I believe the following... Would we strum you now..."probaly" so. Would we beat you..."probaly" absolutely. Could you upset us..."probaly" borders on insane. Would I believe you would win..."probaly" no way in Hades. I'm sure BH is improved with the position changes you referred to, but I still say there's no way you'll beat Jasper by three TDs. If those changes were made in the scrimmage against us it wouldn't have changed the outcome...no "probaly" about it. All things said, I still believe BH wins this one.

BH over Jasper in a close low scoring game.

Whoa, Nelly. I wouldn't go that far. I give BH a shot at winning a close game, but three TDs? Ain't gonna happen. BH has a chance moreso because Jasper is down and BH has a little momentum, but BH can't be leaps and bounds better than they were in the first scrimmage. It's obvious you're implying that you can't accept the BH scrimmage loss to WO-S and that the new and improved BH could win against WO-S now. Then, you just had to throw in the "Wouldn't it be something" bit. Do you really want to go down this road again? No matter how much your team has improved, if BH played WO-S in a regular season game your team would get spanked. It's too bad that you prefer to live in an alternative reality. Is Jody paying you on a consignment to say this? BH 16 Jasper 14

Alcohol should never be sold at a high school game. However, Nederland, PNG, LaMarque, and Brenham surely knew that Reliant would sell beer. So, if this was to be prevented, the schools could have played the games in another stadium. This was the call of the schools involved. It's a risk schools should not take, IMO.

True, 92, I saw the same BH team you did. BH is coming off a win that should boost their confidence. Jasper is always dangerous, you and I know that. Based on the account I heard about the Jasper vs. Nederland scrimmage, and losing bad to a not so good Livingston team, Jasper is reeling. I hate to see this because I expect Jasper to be good every year and it helps keep the rivalry going with WO-S. I want them to compete for the district title because it adds something to our game against them. Still, all things considered, I think BH will squeak out a win.

This was to be a rebuilding year for Jasper, and so far their scrimmages and first game prove that. I expect a low scoring game with BH edging out a win.

So far, Dayton is one of the three best teams in their district. They'll make the playoffs. I knew they were good, but they convinced me after watching them last night.

Congrats to Nederland on a hard fought effort. Your team earned a lot of respect from people outside the Golden Triangle tonight, something that has been lacking (unfortunately) from Houston insiders for some time.

No one else it using it.

Coach Stewart handled it with class. Dayton players and parents should be proud.

Yeah..."scrimmage" was item #28 on the list of excuses we predicted you would make.

So much for your line in the sand.

This is unreal... Jody wrote: "OK WOS (the few idiots that is)" You call us idiots, then ask to suspend hostilities? You have been the crap starter for more than two years. The real question is when will you let go of all the hate you have towards WO-S and their fans? You, sir, have started and continued this mess...ever since we became a 3A school. What is YOUR problem? WO-S fans had barely even heard of Barbers Hill until you came along. It's not about Barbers Hill to us, it's about your insulting remarks, (and occasionally one of your cohorts). You start it, and we respond. That's been the story. So, the more important questions is when will you knock it off? Two years of compulsive behavior is not easily put to rest. I'll believe it when I see it. Jody wrote: "let's just conseed to one another that you and I will never agree to agree about anything." You got it all wrong...no one agrees with YOU about anything, because no one on this board carries the hateful attitude you do towards us or any other school, and that includes your racial remarks. Nice try...
