Are the ball players going to be on those donkeys like the coaches were the other night?

This is not true. If you are talking about track I would want athletic over fundamentally sound. Athletic means speed. I don't care how good your start is if you are slow. Fundamentally sound will get your butt beat on the track against speed.

Give me your picks for games in 21-3A: WOS @ Silsbee HJ @ BC HF @ Orangefield

I sure hope the hospital gave Clemens the $3 million back. If you want to remove his name then remove the donation as well. This is a bunch of bull stuff!!!

I sure hope the U.I.L and the umpires get something worked out!!! This could really affect the season in a bad way.

I haven't seen Gilmer play but I have seen WOS. They have a fast/quick defense that swarms to the ball carrier. I hear that Gilmer has a very explosive offense. You know what they say, offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships. Should be a great game. Good luck to both teams!!!

The distict, overall, will be down from the last few years. Bridge City is the favorite going in.

Somewhere close to the 100 mark.

BS. Silsbee was just coming back from the hurricane as well. This was a well played game by both teams with WOS making the plays they needed to make, to win the game. Both teams played tremendous defense. I don't want to hear any excuses about the hurrincane.

Chris Castle-CB/WR/RB-Silsbee 3 INT's (102 TD return) 13 rushing yards 40 receiving yards

I'm taking the Tigers. Can't wait to get to Bowers Stadium!!! ;D

I think WOS will win by 30.

I haven't seen a fight in so long that I don't even know who Calzaghe is. Jones Jr. used to be the best in the world, but he's a little older and not as quick. I'm assuming Calzaghe is a young fighter and is probably the favorite. But, since I'm living in the past I'll take the greatest fighter (pound for pound) that I have ever seen. Jones Jr. in a decision.

Dang, only 70% on the year. Well, at least I'm passing.

I'm taking the Tigers in this game.

As much as I would like to see HJ win this game, I have to take the smart bet. WOS wins, but so does Silsbee. There will be some celebrating going on in Sour Lake.

This should be a fun game to watch. These two team have totally different approaches on offense. Orangefield will line up in very traditional sets, run the ball, and try to control the clock. BC, on the other hand, will spread Orangefield out and hope to exploit the Bobcat secondary. I think turnovers will be the difference. I'll take............... The Cardinals.

I'll take the Tigers.
