It appears my point was a valid one. Let’s go road warriors!

we'll just have to disagree on this one.  not pitching live game for over a month was much bigger than him having a bad outing against them back in september.  The rangers did the same thing with Eovaldi at the end of the season, throwing him into the fire straight off injury, and he sucked for about 5 starts.  Cost them the division, to be honest.  He's just now starting to pitch good again.  The rangers can't afford to do the same thing with Scherzer.  I get why they did it, let the experienced ace try and shut them down, but he's obviously not all the way back yet. Let Dunning take his spot in the rotation, he's been good all year.  Heaney goes tonight against the stros, and he's done fairly well against them this season, so we'll see.

Agree,Scherzer was gonna be a toss up to what he could really do.I didn’t see the entire game but highlights I seen he never looked comfortable…I feel like it’s a must win tonight even though it’s really not

It’s the life of a pitcher. Sometimes your stuff is great, sometimes not. Was he rusty, probably, but what could be better from the opponent’s view? Astros bats were clicking…. And that’s always going to be the argument.

Scherzer’s stuff looked good to me and he was getting some calls off the plate….a pitcher’s dream. As long as it’s called both ways, I love calls like that. Go Astros

 IMO if the rangers win tonight, they're 80-85% favorites to win the series.  If the stros win tonight, I'd put the stros at 65% to win it.  So while it's not a must win, it's obviously a massive game.  Balance of the series can be shifted completely back into the stros favor tonight, although the rangers won't roll over and die if that happens.

Now that it’s over,like I said it was a must win…feel like backs are against the wall at this point,back to Montgomery and Verlander tonight so it should be a good one!

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      By Separation Scientist · Posted

      That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.

      Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up.

      Waco La Vega (42) vs West Orange-Stark (20) - FINAL

      Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived?

      We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
