If we get the rain they say this game won't take place. I can see Newton winning by 40+ but that will be it. WT will not allow the score to be run up. The two schools have too much respect for each other. The Newton / Kirbyville is not a bitter rivalry. 

Not a rivalry are you serious? This is a big time rivalry, this game will get bad in a hurry Newton 65 Kirbyville 0. I'm saying WT let's Neece score a few extra just because.

That's what I thought, too, but then again I don't think Neece would want to do that to his former players.

What are you proving by doing this? Who benefits from it? As a professional form of courtesy you don't do this.

This, plus the fact that both Johnston and Neece know that there are bigger fish to fry than a week one blowout.  A lot of kids will get time just in case they are needed this year and to get them experience for next year.

I don't believe I named any school being afraid of playing against one or the other in my previous post. The point I was trying to make, evidently a poor attempt, was that more than likely with the bad weather we're having, the game may not be played at all and would make interesting reading on what the posters would have to say.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
