Cain velesquez out 6-8 months with torn rotator cuff
mat replied to a topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Deja vu. Another year with the HW champ out? Who’s next? I don’t know if Dos Santos can handle Lesner -
I have no clue what M1, Strikeforce and Fedor are doing. Their top three HWs have fought one fight each in the last year.

[quote name="BRONX ROX" post="935639" timestamp="1292684047"] This time I will not pawn my award for [b]a jar of pickled pigs feet and a 40 of Lonestar[/b] ;D [/quote] I'll jump at the chance to accept this award. Could be my only chance since I’m much more of a reader than a poster. [b]Had I known the award was so valuable I would have put forth much more effort[/b]. The competition for this award is as broad as the Trinity River. As I stated I am much more of a reader than a posted but some words DO come to mind as I reflect on some the posters and their posts; Homerism, pickled pigs feet, delusion, witty, not-so witty, rivalry, something someone or some team always sucked, idiots, dementia, sour grapes, CROW, Butch-slapped, good sports, sore losers, over achievers, dissapointments, haters, supporters, classy, classless, what tha-, smart, smart a$$, dumb a$$, but most of all,,, Great fans!!! Keep the posts coming even during the off season. ;D Everyone have a very Merry CHRISTmas.

LT QB returning

Sounds like a pretty biased writer to me. He acknowledges Silva lost 4 ½ rounds and no one in GSPs division can come close to him but Silva is still the best? He admits Silva has been criticized for his lack luster performances and still talks about Silva’s killer instinct? Does anyone remember him not finishing Thales Leites and how pissed Dana was? Sounds pretty biased to me. He says no one will win them all or fight as their top every time but GSP has not lost a round since 2007. That’s pretty close. No one can come close to GSP in his weight class but the same can’t be said about Silva. By the way Basketball. Thanks for your input. Not a lot posters on these threads lately.

I agree Silva's a champion but if you’re trying to prove who the best in the world is, loosing four of your last five rounds does matter. I also agree, I wish GSP would put more effort into finishing a fighter too but Silva didn't finish two of is last four and was criticized by many for his lack of effort. It’s hard to compare five year resumes without considering the recent fight history.

Scooter's Poster (s) of the week PLAYOFFS Week 5

[quote name="baddog" post="931815" timestamp="1292171562"] Thanks^^ Scooter, did I win anything like maybe dinner for my wife and me at Texas Roadhouse? ;D If so, I'm gonna brush up on my sarcasm and give her another go. ;D [/quote] Scooter says if you go to your nearest Roadhouse, order anything you want, then when they bring the bill tell them that Scooters got it, your meal will be covered. :) -
Good homework pirate. Silva's win over Forrest was one of the most impressive wins I've seen but he hasn't been that impressive to me in his last two fights, not to mention loosing four of five rounds to Chael (Juiced) Sonnen. GSP has totally dominated his opponents (even though his last three have gone to decission) and hasn't lost a round since 2007. Silva moved up for a couple of fights and has now said he wants to stay in his division (comfort zone). I am ready for GSP to move up, hopefully after Sheilds.
-
I disagree and hopefully we'll see them fight in the near future
-
Some good fights. GSP showed why he's the best but I wish he would finish them off. Looks like Shields will be next.
-
Should be great card I hope GSP beats down Kescheck the way I know he should. I hope the fight doesn't go the distance.
-
I think I saw him shoot a duck out of the air with a bow. Took several tries but he did it.

Preperation is the key. Nave a bucket handy with plenty of TP

Question about Nederland and Larry Neumann

[quote name="BaseBow" post="924079" timestamp="1291299221"] [quote author=football link=topic=76721.msg924062#msg924062 date=1291296717] I thought that he had been in playoffs 16 out of 18 years. [/quote]WITH EVERY BODY PRETTY MUCH MAKING THE PLAYOFFS IT IS NOT VERY HARD.... WELL 4 OUT OF THE 7 TEAMS GOING...HOW ABOUT A DISTRICT TITLE IN 20 YEARS ;) [/quote] Everyone wants a state title. How many area 4A teams have won a state title in the last 20 years? -
The open enrollment agenda is not about sports or any other UIL competition. The issue is money and the competition for state funding. That is where districts are now. The current state funding system is so poor that many districts have to change their policies to compete for enrollment. LCM and others will police themselves correctly to prevent any repercussion.

Question about Nederland and Larry Neumann
mat replied to nedfan88's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Nederland could have had a better record over the last few years by scheduling weaker nondistrict teams but they choose tough opponents. -

mat replied to nedfan88's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I don't keep up with Nederland that much but haven't they battled key injuries the last few seasons? That's quite a challenge for any team and still make it to the palyoffs. -

I saw the pick and read the posts and I didn't think others had a problem with your topic as much as they did about it being a Chronical picture. No harm on your part.

Breaking News for UFC Aldo injury jeopardizes UFC 125 bout
mat replied to a topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Hate to hear that but he better protect his back. -
Yea, they played there best ball once Lance and Roy were gone. Go figure. Heard today the Astros are up for sale.

Edgar vs. Maynard. I'm not that impressed with Edgar's power. Most of his fights go to decision Aldo vs. Gilspi. Aldo is the man Guida vs. Gomi Never a dull moment with guida in the cage. Agreed Diaz vs. kim. Diaz can be fun if he's back to full speed. He had a few fights that weren't that impressive. Leben vs. Stann What can you say about leben other than he likes to bang. Agreed All these could end up candidates for fight of the night
