The HJ / Kountze scrimmage looked like a track meet!!!!!  Kountze has 2 really good players.  HJ will be fine once the football players get their wind and legs underneath them.  Ricossa looked good tonight.  It was tied with 3 minutes to go vs. kountze when I left.

Ah, thank goodness, basketball's back!

Kountze looked athletic AND talented last night.  The Lions even have a bench.  I hope they'll win state this year-- looks like a possibility.

I thought my HJ Hawks would be down a little bit this year, after losing our Killer Bs; now I'm not so sure.  I saw Gus getting his basketball legs back during the scrimmages; he's going to be very good this year at the point.  Grayson hits a very high percentage of his threes, in transition and in sets, and there are several ways the Hawks can collapse defenses to kick it out to him.  Jacoby is going to be fantastic, of course, the tip of the spear.  Ricossa is, IMHO, the best center in 21-3A-- Rico was running the floor very well last night.  Then we have a committee of capable wings and back-ups, good character guys who will work hard for the team.  Our coaches are the best, period.  Overall, I  think HJ will be very good.  To get back to Austin for the third time in four years, HJ will have to play smart, leave it all on the court, get the Hawk Hecklers dialed up to 11, and hit some free throws.  I think we can do all those things.  It will be great fun to see how this season goes.

      Orangefield 65 Livingston 83/FINAL

      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.
