Kountzer

I didn't know that.  Whatever.  It's in deep South Houston, far enough away to not be of interest to me.

Per the Chronicle Stafford vs. Kashmere at Pasadena Dobie Tuesday 7:30p.m.  I was hoping they would play at Delmar, oh well.

That's the usual impression, athletic, urban teams just roll the ball out, and play with not discipline, or very little.  Although Coach Gamble at PA Lincoln won a championship or two by taking the air out of the ball.  Coach Wise is not taking the 3A championship for granted.  This whole thing could come down to Yates vs. Stephenville or Argyle in the Finals or semi finals.

[/quote] You have to respect Yates for putting in their due diligence by scouting potential opponents.  Obviously they're not taking the 3A playoffs lightly, which makes them even more formidable to other teams.

I've passed by that complex scores of times going by on I-20.  I got inlaws in the highland hills section of Ft Worth, which is not far from there.  Kennedale is not that far away.  Ft Wrth Dunbar is relatively close to there as well.

I went to that Silsbee vs. Kashmere game.  It was more like Silsbee's varsity without the football players, or the JV team.  Throw that game out as far as judging what would happen if they meet in the playoffs.  Houston Sterling?  Idk much about them.  I go to church in that part of town, that's about it.

If I'm reading the brackets right Silsbee could play Kashmere again in the Region 3 area game.  The winner of that game would play yates in the Regional quarter final game, one game before the regional finals in Huntsville.

I didn't say Yates and D Madison will beat every team in their path and meet in the 3A finals, although there is a high probability of that happening.  Anyone who is not aware of those two teams is not paying attention. I love my Silsbee Tiger basketball though, and the Kountze Lions.  Back when I was in middle school Brannon and Manning were like rock stars in Silsbee.  That's probably what influences the 'kountzer' name. Good luck to both teams.  Afterall, it's just basketball.

I'm guessing Tatum and White Oak are 2A schools.

Could be.  Yates and Dallas Madison will have a lot of say in all that.

I just posted what I was feeling.  The Tigers are definitely my favorite team, and that goes back a long way.  I like Kountze as well.  I hope they bring home another trophy, but trophy or no trophy my heart is with the Tigers.

I gotta get me another name, lol.

Silsbee should win district.  The Tigers are relatively short and don't shoot free throws well.  To me this is another indication that Yates is going to cake walk to Austin.

His wife was just and strong as he was in the stands. [/quote] yes.  Need to keep his wife in prayer also.  She suffered serious injury as well.

[quote name="CLASSof2010" post="1346163" timestamp="1354335824"] I'm sorry, but for the fans that were on here saying Silsbee had lost at half, y'all are some sorry excuses for fans! They had a whole half to play! If I were you I'd be ashamed! I can only hope that Silsbee players don't get on here and see just how well some of their fans were supporting them! On another note, Good job dogs! I knew you could do it! [/quote] I've been watching football at all levels longer than I care to admit.  A lot of that was Silsbee football, Waldo Matthews & Silsbee High.  So, if I say I'm 'feeling' this or that, I'm usually not wrong.  I would of preferred to have been wrong this time, but I wasn't.

[/quote] Kountze in the playoffs? [/quote] As I've explained several times before, I grew up in Silsbee.  From the 1st grade at Frank Robinson Elementary to graduation from Silsbee high.

Uh oh, I feel a serious spanking about to go down.

This was the first time I've been back to the Kashmere HS and gym in over ten years.  The last time I went to a game there Ozen played against somebody.  It wasn't Kashmere HS.  The gym was a neutral site.  The star attraction that night was then sophomore Kendrick Perkins.

Silsbee could of won this game.  They played sloppy at times.  I agree, too many long passes.  11 for Kashmere is good.

Yep.  Huffman? Not a problem.  Stafford?  Not a problem.  Carthage?  problem, maybe.  Friday 8 days from now will answer that question.

I'm old enough to remember Lutcher Stark High School.  I recall going to a Silsbee basketball game there.

Silsbee vs Stafford.  The scheduled time is tailor made for me. 

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1335447" timestamp="1353196163"] Silsbee should go another 3 rounds in football! May not have a full Tiger team till 2nd week of December. What they have now is a very good team as well. [/quote] Three rounds? Carthage is in this bracket.  I don't know.
