[/quote]So, how many Bmt. games have you attended this season? [/quote] What does that have to do with anything?  EVERYONE(players, coaches, fans, administrators, custodians, concession stand workers, etc.) in attendance at the game need to stand, place their hands over their hearts and sing the national anthem.  Why this is even in question is a complete disgrace & those who actually contemplate what to do when the anthem is played should be ashamed.

They brought up some things that opened my thought s up on the playoff system. Three to four schools get picked in the 3-a, 4-a, or 5a schools for playoffs. Let me break this down a little deeper. You can be a  3rd or 4th place team and make the playoffs! Is that really a true accomplishment? Maybe in today's standards it is looked at in a favorable way. But there use to be days when you would have 3-5 team ties and there was a playoff to see who really deserved it. Thanks to true ol'schoolers for keeping it real. But times have changed and I can accept it but you just can't fool everybody, if you know what I mean ;) [/quote] Dove- this "everybody is a winner" and "nobod should ever feel left out" are two lefty propositions that have no place in basketball (and a lot of other places too)  At the rate we are going, it wont be long until everyone is in the playoffs because it's the "fair" thing to do. [/quote] "Change we can believe in!"  Oh wait, that phrase has already been utilized - unsuccessfully mind you.

[/quote] He is too busy recruiting to take lessons. [/quote] ::) ::)...really?...There is a kid that mysteriously landed on HJ's gym door step, too...Is that not how kids can end up at Yates, too? ::) 8) [/quote] Yes, Dickie, it could be.  The frequency in which it happens at Yates as opposed to how often it happens at HJ is the part that is suspect. ;) [/quote] OK, but doesn't the odds of it happening in a city as large as Houston increase in frequency due to the numbers? Which makes a kid moving into Sour Lake from Beaumont.....suspect... ::) ::) 8) [/quote] But where else in Houston does it happen with the frequency that Yates seems to have the good fortune of having? 8)  And urban flight out of Beaumont has been happening for many years.  People are bailing out of Beaumont is all directions, not just out Hwy. 105 to Sour Lake. [/quote] Urban flight?  :o...Oh yeah, thats logical...Lets leave Beaumont, and head to the rice fields of Sour Lake!... ::) ::)..No sir...FB Travis received some notable transfers...So does Bellaire...annually.. ;)..Its not just Yates... 8) [/quote] DV you profess to be knowledgeable of this area & question urban flight?  Have you not heard of the city of Lumberton?  People are & have been getting the he!! out of Dodge(BISD) for years now & 99.9% has nothing to do with basketball. 

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1175913" timestamp="1328928728"] Ugly win.  Jags just went through the motions. There were a lot of smiling and hapiness due to this being the last home game for the seniors. BTW, Dunk count 3-0 Central Are of the dunkks were directly over the head of a Raider player that tried to block it.  Smh.  Can you say posterized? [/quote] Sorry Soulja, I believe HJ's dunk count exceeded Centrals.

[quote name="bullets13" post="1175924" timestamp="1328929098"] HJ was too nice... screwed me on my pickem :) [/quote] Sorry, Coach Sutherland didn't follow Coach Stumps philosophy. 

[quote name="diaperdandy19" post="1174861" timestamp="1328796252"] He's a great player but i think he runs his mouth a little too much. [/quote] You obviously don't follow HJ basketball - good luck to Silsbee in the playoffs.

At no point this year would I have thought that Mexia would have been ranked #15 in the state.  After watching their performance in Huntsville last year & learning of their returning players this year, I would have expected them to be near or at the top of the polls all season long.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1171231" timestamp="1328287122"] Team is too young this year. [/quote] Agree - NIT should be in their future. 

[quote name="bullets13" post="1169325" timestamp="1328068941"] i still maintain that HJ is the better team, but i got to watch the first half and part of the 3rd quarter on the live feed, (while listening to our setx broadcast with it's delay), and i feel there is very little separating these teams.  earlier in the year i would've said hj wins 8 out of 10 meetings.  now i'd say 5 or 6 of 10.  great win for the hawks!  no more "wins in a row" for the tigers! [/quote] I agree that HJ would have been favored over Silsbee this year but the Tigers have proven us all wrong. 

[quote name="FanintheStands" post="1169307" timestamp="1328068146"] The free throw shooting for the Hawks was incredible, considering they started out like 2 of 9.  After that, they went on a tear! [/quote] Hoping that continues! 

[quote name="STiger85" post="1169301" timestamp="1328067922"] Dag-nabbet!!! Now they are tied for district. [/quote] Yep & if they both win out it will be a third meeting for district seeding.
