It's hard for me to travel to the out of town games. That's why I love SETXsports and Mike's broadcasts. Other than an occasional grammatical error, he does a great job!!! I taught him everything, you know. ;D 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world needs vultures like you to clean up the roadkill. I havn't see him as many time as you (I guess) but you are contesting my contention that he plays a little out of control at times? You go back and learn the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest speechless Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 TV,I understand the game fairly well. I did not take your comment as he plays "out of control"....I took it differently than that....if "out of control" is what you meant then I think that could be said about many a player playing against Silsbee's quickness and speed....or HJ for that matter.
