Just a pet peeve of mine but can we at least get 24 hours to talk about last night's games before we are bombarded with next week's game prediction threads.

Show some respect.

Jeeez

Heck I seen before a game not even finished and the next weeks prediction thread already started…

I agree with AggiesAreWe, I think 24 hours to post those would be better I would like to hear more comments on the games just played. I would also like to see district standings posted. What I would like to see removed is  my weeks schedule 

I started posting that in hopes that others would post in that thread what games they would be attending that week. Just a fun little thing.

BTW, district standings are posted each week. You just need to look harder.

Here, I'll hold your hand:

It doesn’t bother me. If there is a particular threat I don’t want to read I just don’t click on it.. I’ve seen game threads in the past that were very active get locked in the interest of “moving on to the next game”.. I never understood that. Is there a specific thread limit for the SETX Sports platform??

My point is if you post 15 prediction threads for games being played the following week, it pushes the game threads that were played less than 12 hours ago down the page.

Again, just a pet peeve of mine. I'll live.

My thought on that is bringing up games threads from two weeks ago is pointless as more games have already been played and the context has changed.  Especially when it is done just to continue an argument.

if there really the interest in games just played and the desire to talk about them the getting pushed down shouldn't be an issue at all.  alot of activity keeps thread toward top. in a way solves the issue of what want to discuss the most.

but hey my perception of things is distorted alot of yall seem to think.

      To the Fans Who Complain About Referees

      By Preach · Posted

      I get it!!  I was once in your shoes. I was that person in the stands, loudly complaining about “bad officiating.” Now, with the rise of social media, it’s easier than ever to voice these criticisms online.  I thought I could see every call better than the officials on the floor. Then someone said to me, “If you can do better, get in the game.”   That challenge changed my life. Over 20 years ago, I became a basketball official, and what I’ve learned since then is eye-opening.   Officiating is not just about making calls. It’s about managing the game, the players, the coaches, and yes, the fans. We face a new generation of student-athletes who have been raised in a culture where everyone gets a trophy and losing is almost taboo. We deal with fans who question our integrity and sometimes become outright hostile.   I acknowledge that officials aren’t perfect; we have off days just like anyone else. However, the increasing hostility from fans is driving many to leave officiating. According to the National Federation of High School Associations, approximately 50,000 high school officials have left the profession since the 2018-19 season, with fan behavior being a significant factor.    Here’s the reality: without officials, there is no game.   So, instead of tearing down the people who make your games possible, here’s a suggestion:   • Thank the officials for being part of the game. • Thank them for the countless hours they spend studying rules, mastering mechanics, and working to improve. • Thank them for their patience with privilege-minded athletes and overly aggressive fans.   Next time you see an official, instead of criticizing, take a moment to say, “Thank you.” They’re out there to make the game happen, and trust me, it’s not as easy as it looks from the stands.   If you think you can do better, take the challenge like I did. Get in the game. You might just discover how much it takes to blow that whistle.
