New Poster--need info

[Big Slim]

Okay, so I admit that I have been lurking on the board for a couple of weeks and promised never to get to the point where I needed to post because then i would be on all day. However, I'm on most of the day anyway so i figure I might as well ramble on like everyone else!

Anyways, I grew up in 26-5a but now live in Dallas and was wodnering what will be the better matchup to go se tomorrow night Garland/Naaman, Rowlett/NG, or Mesquite/N.Mesquite.

[dragons08]

hmm i dont know to much about any of those teams so im not going to give my opion, i just wanted to say welcome to the board, i was basically in the same boat as you, lurked didnt want to join, then i joined and bam, im hooked its a great board, have fun

[owlfan 1]

Garland/ Naaman (hopefully) won't be much of a game (GHS should roll).

Rowlett/ NG has tons of playoff implications - a loss and NG is in serious trouble - an RHS loss and they slide back to the pack (and perhaps lose some of their confidence and momentum).

For pure spectacle, I would attend Mesquite/ North Mesquite. This is a bitter, bloody rivalry and is almost always a highly competive game. It will also have a huge crowd, and be played in one of the better stadiums in the area. It is possible that both these teams miss the playoffs, but this game is always great.

Hooked. You violently took over the board with an all-out assault on the keyboard! :p

My .02 which is worth...well .02 is to go to Mesquite/North Mesquite. They've been rivals for years. None of the 3 games are real top-flight games of 2 great teams.

Hey Mad Fan--That is for Madison right?

oh yea big slim, lonny is the board smart @$$... :p

[grayowl60]

The Rowlett/North game will be a show for two excellent RB's, Bean and Pierce. And at least one of these teams will be in the playoffs. As for me, I will watch the Owls. :rolleyes:

[SmilinTiger]

oh yea big slim, lonny is the board smart @$$... :p

Believe me, he runs a distant second to the WIDE ONE.

[dragons08]

their both pretty good, its who ever is having a better day i guess, i wish i had some skill like that, at least im learning from the best in the biz!

[lonny23]

I'm better than he is, but I won't say some of the things he'll say. That's the difference, because what I write is a toned down version of what I can say. I leave some things alone because this is supposed to be a family board. There's a fine line between doing an all-out assault and making people mad and just throwing comments in here and there. I enjoy what Wide says, too!

[lonny23]

oh yea big slim, lonny is the board smart @$$... :p
I try to be. I don't want to overdo it, though. It's not worth making people mad.

[DragonFan]

If you want a really interesting game come down 114 to 26 to go see SLC and CHHS at Panther/Mustang stadium! 2 undefeated teams going for the lead in 5-5a!

[implacable44]

you grew up in the 26-5a - what school did you go to ?

[Big Slim]

I went to Madison in the 90's

[implacable44]

madison -Did you know Jerald Reiner ? I grew up right down the way from Madison - right off Topperwein road.

All 3 of my houses in Converse were within 0-2 miles of Toepperwein. I lived in Miller's Point, Cimarron, and whatever the new Cimarron is.

It was cool to see the San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame plaques at the Alamodome. Ad Toepperwein was a trick-shot artist and he didn't miss anything with a rifle. His wife was a good shooter, too.

cimarron - my buddy brent mcollum lived over there. i remember when they built cimmaron - we thought those were really nice houses --

great neighborhood !

Man, you can hardly beat Converse houses. I went from about 1650 SF to 1838 to 2339 and all those houses can be had for under $100K.

[LPMOM]

north mesquite / mesquite is the one i would go watch

[Big Slim]

My older brother graduated with Reiner and I saw him this summer at a wedding. Reiner is a great guy and was a hell of a basketball player

They have the posting part down and they keep a good attitude. All they need now are good smart aleck remarks and to add a lot of sports knowledge. I had a huge headstart on them in sports because I started studying all this stuff when I was 7 or 8. I probably knew more at 9 or 10 than they know now.

Yeah, Lonny's right there....he's much more knoweledgable(sp) in sports history than I am....mostly in part cause I really got into it just about last year....

i know you know a LOT about sports, i may not know the history as well as you did, but i am pretty good at getting the present nailed, stats, standings, in most of the sports, was told id be a great sports writer, but id have to learn to spell and use grammar first.....thats what an editor is for anyways right?
