Don't get too wrapped up in the rankings dont let 5 losses by Buna fool you....it's where you finish that counts. The sticks are alive and well!!! Did i age myself by saying "sticks"?

be careful what you wish for....or what you are looking forward to...another cougar victory!!!

Why would Coach Alvarez get criticized for his kids playing well---he DID NOT run up the score...Dive R & L, QB sneaks, FG attempt on 2nd down... the Hornets were just outmatched, but I did see some positives from the Hemphill kids...#3 ran hard all night---#11 stood in and made some good throws under extreme pressure...#s 42 and 34 had some quality receptions... Hold your heads up HIGH Hornets and keep working hard....

congrats to Kirbyville--don't see anyone slowing them down any time soon...The Hornets had several opportunites to score in the game but the 'cat defense stepped up when asked to...

I wonder who made the decision to have K'ville for Woodville's Homecoming...what were they thinking...gonna be a longgggggggggggggggggggggg night for the Eagles...only thing they'll have to look forward to is finger foods at the dance...

Problem is, she'd want all the games to be played in uhLaaaaaaaaaaaaaaSSSSSSKAkuh... is that voice annoying or what?

I thought Kountze was the Pre-District favorite entering this season---good thing the games are played on the field and not in magazines---2 tough district losses with 4 games left--gonna be difficult, but not impossible for the Lions to make the playoffs. Did grades get them or what?

well it's time for Gov. Palin to put Joe Six pack to rest--who knows, in another 4 years she may have another drinkin buddy---HARVEY WALLBANGER!!! and tse-tschese-staeste, the ring is getting tighter--or is that a noose--lol--darn honey do list grows longer each day--she keeps this up, i'll gladly end this retirement and get back to work--lmao dang difficult name to type--lol

"Say it ain't so Joe"

some of these young pups might not know anything about 'ol beldar--good stuff ump--lol

First time I saw that name i thought it translated to mean "the cheese is tasty"--lol--nope to the tree huggin and especially 'NO' to the tackle box..aka kyle field--lmao--u should know better than that...see u guys Friday

Knowing Gov. Palin, she'd probably incorporate the 'GUN' package................moose beware!!!! OH, 1 more thing, doesn't she realize hockey isn't played all across the U.S.?

One of the biggest hits I ever saw in person was in a playoff game between Hemphill and Mart in 2000. A HUGE Hemph lineman picked up a fumble and evidently figured he was going to ramble for a TD. Quan Cosby had different ideas as he came in like a fricken scud missle and knocked this fella head over heels. It was very much like Quan's hit on that poor OU player on Jordan Shipley's run and catch during last weeks Texas - OU game.

Coach Alvarez prolly has those Kirbyville fellas out running up and down the field drying it with their draft as they go by--I hear those 'KATS are speedy.

Am thinking there'd be a great deal of deception in their game plan--lol

I guess Jo Momma could be cheerleader sponsor--

IF...John Mccain was Head Coach and Sarah Palin his OC--would Joe Six-Pack be her starting QB and what offense would they run...just wondering--I evidently have way too much time on my hands--

Lotta rain down this way...will that slow the 'kats down any? Not sure if the Hornets have the 'mudders' of years past. But ya never know, they may drive up in their 4 - wheelers and make a game of it.What ya think X?

Prayers and condolences to the family and Shelbyville community.

grades must have come out--the team in question didnt have enough to play or what...

good stuff xquizit---am sure 'ol 3 will be in the stands Friday night--no telling what magically unbelievable plays he might see--

Coach Hall has done a tremendous job for the Hornets. As far as not expecting much from Hemphill, that's been the case ever since Coach took over...people having low expectations year in and year out. But he silenced the critics by making the playoffs 3 straight years...which included an undefeated district championship run in 2005. For the past 10 years, the Hemphill has put out a quality product--coming close to capturing the class 2A State Championship in 2001--only to drop a controversial decision to Blanco in the semi-finals by the score of 28 - 27. Although a bit unmanned this season, expect a hard fought contest this Friday night in Kirbyville. These kids play with a great deal of heart and will battle 'til the end. For most here, the outcome of the game has already been determined. Good luck to both teams.

SA 28 - 24. Hemp led into 4th quarter until ball knocked loose on reception by hemp receiver and recovered by SA. Hemp had 1 more opportunity recovering fumble by Sa on the 13 yard line going in. Good ball game--best performance by the Hornets all year. Am going to sound like AGGIE now--wait til next year--lol

Class 2A Region 3 is definately the toughest in the state--Kirbyville, Newton, Arp, Elysian Fields to anme a few--State Champion in both D1 and D2 more than likely comes of of this region.. As far as comparing District 22 and 23---right on about top teams in 22A--kirby and newton...followed by San Augustine, Woodville, Hemphill, and Shelbyville... Not sure how 23 will play out--long way to go--on any given night the supposed underdog can come out victorious..which has happened in the first 2 weeks of district play--- The best thing for District 23AA is they won't have to play openeing round of playoffs against District 22AA....Bye for all teams in 23AA first round.... Just think how tough 22AA would be if Corrigan was still in this district...looking like Kirbyville and Corrigan first round matchup...

Coach Alvarez has too much respect for Coach Hall of Hemphill to run it up--but the reserves want to show what they are able to do also, so it's difficult to keep the score down at times. I know Hemphill will play hard 'til the tick of the clock. Am waiting for track season so I can watch Coach Stapert show his hurdling skills--lol
