Most of these guys playing may have not even been born yet, but in 1990 the mighty Oakland A's were playing the Cinncinati Reds in the World Series..No one gave the Reds much of a chance, being the A's had names like Jose Canseco, Mark Mcgwire, Ricky Henderson and an unbelievable pitching staff..The Reds had no big names, no big homerun hitters, an OK bunch of pitchers...The end result, the Reds swept the world series 4 games to none..... It can be done.. Baseball is a funny game..

PS: I am not saying this BC team has an OK pitching staff or no homerun hitters..I am just saying on paper it looks like David vs Goliath, and I know what can happen in those type matchups... GO GET UM CARDS

Carthage is undefeated and that is tough to do at any level.  I don't think they have played but two or three quality teams but they have played some of those quality teams more than once and have won them all.  Averaging 11 runs per game means you can pound the patsies but being undefeated and having beat some good teams means you are pretty good yourself.  Bridge City should have a tough time winning this one.  Ace to Ace should be the game of the year. 

Also, Carthage does have one legitimate 90+ fastballer but according to someone I know that lives there and has seen them play several times, the other kid is probably 86-87 consistantly. Still, that's nothing to sneeze at! They will be tough to beat two out of three.

I think we definately got the tough end of the bracket!

The score is 0-0 right now.. Lets see what happens.. The Cards have a good shot.. I think the Carthage district has some weak teams in it.. The better teams played them pretty tough.. Lufkin Hudson (2 close games), Liberty Eylua (2 close games non district)  ( I meant to post this under this subject)

WELL BRIDGE CITY AINT GOIN ANYWHERE TMY PREDICTION BC IN 3... CAUSE BC'S GUNNA WOOP UP ON CARTHAGE... JACKSON'S GUNNA HIT LIKE 5 HOMERUNS EACH GAME, SO WILL JOHNNY DISHON, AND TROY BOLYON AND STRINGER AND MEEKS ARE GOING TO BOTH HAVE PERFECT GAMES AND BE BLOWIN' IT PAST THOSE LITTLE CARTHAGE PUPS ALL NIGHT!!!!!!! CARTHAGE PLAYS AGAINST EASIER TEAMS AND THAT'S THE ONLY REASON THEY HAVE A BETTER RECORD THAN THE CARDS.... IF THEY HAD TO PLAY IN 21-3A THEY PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE EVEN MADE THE PLAYOFFSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS............

No, Carthage played in District 20 I think it was; and at this point we have no good reason to think 21 is better than 20.  I watched Hudson play last week, and they looked very strong to me.

If, and only if, BC and Jasper both advance this week, then we can brag a bit about district 21.  Then get ready for a little war.  ;D

I'm sure we all appreciate expo's enthusiasm and suppport for the Cardinals, but let's give credit to all the teams left playing at this time. Anyone still standing right now has to be good in order to be here. Most of us believe that 21-3A can compare favorably with any district in the state. I also believe that BC is capable of beating Carthage. You can't disregard the fact that they are unbeaten SO FAR, but don't assume that they can't be defeated just because they haven't been YET. Carthage has only played 2 playoff games. BC has played 7 and have proven they can hang tough when things don't go perfectly. Cathage obviously can hit, but their previous playoff opponents committed a lot of errors. If BC fields well, makes no errors and continues to hit the way they have recently, they can beat Carthage twice to advance. It won't be easy by any means, but it is not impossible. There will be some great baseball played this weekend.

To Expos:  Reading your post I think you might need to add a little "bran" to your breakfast cereal or maybe even some prunes--you really need flushed out.  :-\

BC is in for another tough playoff game-set and will have to rise to the occasion to win.

I sure hope you are just another H-J pest-- LOL-- that is still jealous and just licking their egos & sores--surely you are not from BC?

    • Bye Week beat Beaumont United by double digits so not all is bad 😁
    • He made the comment as a business man he hated overtime. He never said or implied he wanted to do away with it. He has said overtime should not be taxed. That will benefit the refinery workers in our area big time…..as well as nurses. Not only would you not pay taxes and see the benefit immediately on your paycheck, my guess that at the end of the year, you would subtract all the overtime from your total wages, thus lowering your taxable imcome.
    • Well I thought it would be a better matchup for us more so than us versus yall and we got whooped 🤷🏾‍♂️ we'll see, long time before Ball High meets Lufkin though. 
    • Very critical win for Crosby last night. At no point has the current regime given me any reason to think Crosby should be able to pencil in wins but for the sake of discussion I will for FB Kempner who we play two weeks from now and also Porter who we play a couple of weeks after that. That means if Crosby can beat Kingwood Park next week we’ll most likely finish district play 5-2 and in at least 3rd place.    That being, the team could be a lot better if we had a competent offensive coach. Crosby’s offensive philosophy is to give it to Yarbrough and hope he breaks it which is why we lose to team with above average defensive talent. Crosby’s TE Landen Hammer is 6’2” and about 210lbs with crazy ball skills, an absolute mismatch problem and got one target last night. Friendswood realized Crosby had some playmakers on the edges and lots of times gave the receivers a 10 yard cushion. The problem is that Willis doesn’t know that so not once did we just raise up, throw it out to the receiver and give them an opportunity to be an athlete and make a play. So now that we’ve averaged 8 completions per game through our first four contest because 50% of the time Willis chooses to swap out 50% of the offense we look like we “don’t have the receiving talent that we used to.” Yarbrough probably had close to 300 rushing yards last night but I wouldn’t be surprised if he had 35 carries. I like our backup RB but there are several kids who could help Crosby more at that position and Willis chooses not to play them there and feed Yarbrough to the point he couldn’t even finish the game last night. He continues to display an inability to efficiently use his personnel which is why we get blow out by any team with at least equal talent. Maybe something changes but Willis being 6-19 his last two and a half years on the sideline and his inability to shake the Cedar Park model don’t give much hope, which is unfortunate for the kids.
