No love from da Dove? ;D

The Dogs are not at full strength. Missing the depth will hurt in this game. Given HJ will have the home -  cookin the Hawks win by 15 +. Take it to the bank.

HJ by 15

This game will be closer than that. HJ may win, but it won't be by 15.

    It's HJ by 23 end of third.

You were right - it was only by 25!  Sorry Nederland fans - couldn't resist after our freshmen & JV came up short against yall.

Also, let it be known that I'd prefer HJ. I just don't think HJ has the arsenal to beat Nederland. They will be tough on the boards.
[/quote]

I think you're trying to motivate those Hawks, Dove. We all know that HJ has the 'Arsenal' to beat Nederland or they would not be ranked ahead of Nederland in 'The Dirty Dozen'. I'm obviously pulling for Nederland, but i believe these teams are evenly matched. It will be a great experience for both teams to play in a semi-high pressured game this early in the season in preperation for the remainder of their seasons.
[/quote]Did Aggie rank HJ ahead of Nederland? I hope not. But Nederland will win tonite.
[/quote]

Sorry Dove, didn't happen.  You should've been there!

I just saw several of the Nederland players checking out some other games in town. I told them not to make me look bad tonight.  Their look reassured me I have nothing to worry about tonight.

I hope you don't make your living as a clinical psychologist - HA! 

[TheRef]

Now then Nederland will be a very good team this year. As a 1987 graduate I would like to express wishes for an excellent season to the players and to fellow classmate Coach English. All I can say is you've got them worried over there in 20-4a. I saw all kinds of scouting going on tonight.

[stevenash]

Dogs will have a very good season.  It's too early to classify them as less than good and too early to brand the Hawks as world beaters.  Both teams will hope to improve as the season progresses.  Last year, the Hawks didnt look good at all early on and yet made it to the regional tourney- so we all had better reserve judgement

Man, I hate to make my prediction against the two teams I have a lot of respect for, because my predictions usually come true when I make them. I have an idea whose going to win this one. I'll save my comments for Monday afternoon. Don't want to tip off coaches ;D :o
[/quote]

No need to wait Dove - you know you are going to pick HJ to win.  This way if you are right you look like Jimmy the Greek and can rub it Nederland's face that they lost but if you're wrong you can still fall back on the fact that HJ plays a weak schedule and is overrated.
[/quote] Okay, actually I'm picking Nederland to win this one. They will control the boards and the inside.  ;)
[/quote]

On that small chance that the Hawks pull this one out, I am saving this post so it can't be modified after the fact.
[/quote]Oh wait a minute!!!!      [color=black][size=24pt] Nederland [/color][size=24pt]Will Beat[color=red] HJ[/size]

Good morning, Dove.  What "predictions" will you be offering today?

[bullets13]

[PoppaBearstarr]

[/quote] Its something about those Hawks. Tell them they can't do it and they go out and prove otherwise. I hate'm but I love'em

[Lazeek]

I don't think it had to do with them being told that they could not do it.  Better team won!!! 8) 8) 8)

Dove- I know you know your basketball but you have to be kidding to suggest that altering the position of one player could change a game by 30+ points?  Come on, now.  That is no different that stating that our current President has a good understanding of how business and our economy works.

[/quote]rEALLY? Larry Bird!

[stevenash]

Of course, Larry Bird is irrelevant in this case.  Obviously we are talking about "your big man".

HJ has a pretty nice blend of urban/suburban thus proving there is a place for both on the basketball court in high school basketball.  Special congrats to Mr. Bosha who exercised a lot of patience and showed much maturity for a sophomore by NEVER forcing a shot or pass.  Every decision he made was a good one and he was quite productive in the second half of the game.  Also don't remember him having a single turnover which, in itself, has some meaningful point value.
