I kinda like HJ now actually. I went from indifferent to a slight fan. I don't let high school basketball run my life. I've seen Silsbee lose. I've experienced them winning 2 championships. Scratch that off the bucket list. I worked for the state Texas 30 years; 20 of those years were with dps. I am retired now. I do a lil Doordash delivery. I am tryna get my notary loan signatures hustle going. On the weekends I used to go an Adventist Church but they've been closed for awhile because of covid 19. So I watch the services on Facebook. I don't belong to blm, or antifa, none of that. If somebody does well, to each his own. I've never been to jail. I don't drink or smoke. I seldom go home to Silsbee. When I do I go check on my 93 year old uncle. maybe take him to Walmart or to cracker barrel in Beaumont. My 3 year old grand son recently discovered basketball at his Montessori school. His twin sister likes ballet. When they are old enough to discover PS 5 watch out!

That's okay. Progress is good. -
It is all hypothetical. BU has a very good team from what I've read. They may go all the way. If they do it would not bother me.
-
Put it like this, if the move had not been blocked he would off played for Silsbee that season.
-
I did. You took it down.

` Instead of writing 'a definite Silsbee flavor'. I should of left definite out and just said a silsbee flavor. Semantics in SE Texas.

The head coach.

Actually I've been complimenting Sour Lake and HJISD. In some respects they are more progressive than my home town Silsbee.
-
Remember that, when some of the stuff I've tried to introduce here come true.

It would be a waste of time.

From thesaurus.com: Rivalry is a synonym for opposition in conflict topic. In some cases you can use "Rivalry" instead a noun "Opposition", when it comes to topics like obstruction, enemy. Obstruction, enemy were their choice of words not mine.

It wasn't one of my better ones. But I've been sleeping good so I am not worried about it.

Quit trying to read into what I wrote more than what it is. People make all kinds of stupid remarks all around this board. My post fits right in.
-
The rednecks or whatever they are don't have to explain their racist innuendos why should I have to explain mine. throwing out bigoted stereotypes like "he should win cause he got a bunch of running, athletic studs. Call it straight across the board.

it means what ever u want it to mean.

If Trey Jones showed up in Silsbee his sr year from another region or another state that is one thing. Trey Jones dad played for Sigler and Silsbee 25 years ago. Same applies to Braelon Bush. The family lives In Silsbee. That does not bother me. The district committees and the UIL saw it the say way. Compared to the recruiting and outright mercenary transfers happening all over the place this is not even worth mentioning. In Houston a student can transfer to a magnet school on the other side of town, 15 to 30 miles away, no problem. Silsbee is only 15 to 20 miles from Beaumont. You can drive from one to the other in 20 minutes, depending on how fast you can get through Lumberton. Don't even mention what the private schools like FFA, Bellaire Episcopal, Strake Jesuit Yates, et al are doing. Oh yeah Yates is a public school, my bad. Or that home school fakery that resulted in a state championship up in Bridgeport a few years ago. They haven't taken that away so it still stands. A lot of good DNA has moved from Silsbee to Beaumont. That has been going for 30 or 40 years. I talk to classmates and friends and they are all in Beaumont. The current BU team has a definite Silsbee flavor. One or two players come back home to Silsbee in the past five to seven years and somebody wants to make federal case. Give me a break.

If I remember correctly he wanted to play for Silsbee his Sr year. But the district committee with the backing of the UIL said he had to return to Kountze.

I didn't get to see Silsbee play every year. Some seasons I had to depend on what I read or heard on this msg board. I saw the team with Chris Elam and Holmes twice. The year after that I didn't see any games. Then in 15/16 Silsbee was ranked #1. I went to a showcase game at Houston Episcopal. Silsbee vs Bellaire. A lot of football players were out, but the Tigers still beat Bellaire. Bellaire had Max Evans. Devon was a 5'8" freshman. Jay Adams was about 6'1" and slender. By the time the playoffs came season Devon had grown to 6'2". I watched them all four years. I didn't see anything irregular on those rosters.
-
Name some names. I can't think of any player on those 2 championship teams for Silsbee that attended 4 different high schools. If this mystery person exists he sat on the very end of the bench. Those were some long and deep benches too.

The big guy. That's true.
