Athens @ New Lexington 1/17

[sportsmom20]

New Lex out scored 33-22, how many of those were foul shots? They were outstanding from the line.

I'd say quit fouling.

Completely agree Bandit, but getting kids to do that sometimes is tough. I was giving a compliment to New Lex for their consistency on hitting foul shots when they got to the line.

What in the world is going on? LOL

I feel like people are avoiding posting because of others flipping out and ripping them for everything they say that someone doesn't agree with. Being a millenial has nothing to do with it, it's just how other people act on here that are running people off.

Can't blame that on me. I'm new to this Forum. From what I hear this Forum has had problems for awhile now. I'm just trying to bring some New Blood in-Shake things up a little-I bet this Site has increased Traffic Ten Fold since I came on the Scene. Same people and Same Boring stuff on here from what I see...Bunch of Old Men sitting in their Basements talking about the same old stuff and not wanting to hurt any feelings-Blah, Blah, Blah

You sure are a cocky one

It's called Humor with a "Dash" of Sarcasm....Some people on here need to Learn it-Feel like I am talking to a Bunch of people who get "their panties in a wad" over the littlest things....Geez

Agree. This site, that was brought to my attention in July, is very similar to the old JJhuddle in the late 90's early 2000. Same people from huddle probably is my guess. There are some constructive basketball conversations, but mixed into that are people who bring their own personal agendas to the table for a certain school, player, coach, team, etc. and then post vague comments towards those subjects that are not factual, helpful or at times have anything to do with high school basketball.

As I have said before in the 90's on huddle, these kids are not pro athletes and they should not be discussed as such. Want to talk about basketball and skills, from a fundamental standpoint, sure. Just in the last couple of days, five different threads have gone down hill to people commenting on kids being held back for " sports", players who people think get time just because of who they are, comments regarding people's personal lives, why players have transferred schools, accusing people of having multiple user names and just straightforward name calling. Honestly, this site at times has become the adult way to "safely" harass people, while sitting behind a keyboard and a "tricky" user name. I ask you, would these conversations and comments go downhill so quickly if everyone had to use their real names and be accountable for their words? Would some of these folks have enough nerve to say these things directly to someone, the answer is NO, NO, NO, they would not. We are trying to teach our children to not do these things on social media, however here we are on a site with a bunch of adults who are no better than some of the teens in the news.


As back to the topic, it was a good game, they are an awesome team from the foul line. They had a great pep band who I totally enjoyed their music! Their school was very accommodating which I appreciated, as I forgot to get my kid food for the bus, and was so grateful to find out they fed our team after the game.

I honestly thing there needs to be a topic for people to introduce themselves.

[93Bulldog]

I honestly thing there needs to be a topic for people to introduce themselves.

I've been open about who I am for years. I offer to talk to any other posters at games or wherever and whenever. We use to have JJhuddle tailgate parties back in the day. Personally, I like having my identity known and could never really understand the motive to 'hide' behind a user name with the intention of stirring the pot. Seems childish - but to each his/her own I guess.

I think most people know who I am, Even had my name as my username for the most part with my kids pic...but I NEVER talked him up, rarely ever mentioned him and he is one heck of an athlete. I changed username and everything because of 2 people ironman99 and thebarlowbandit, they were constantly talking badly of my kid, saying he wasn't good enough...etc. I like my boy fly's under the radar. You get a few people in here that ruin it for others, and the sad thing is, they can talk to you face to face, know you for years, but on hear talk nothing but bad about you.

[sportsmom20]

I announced who I was the minute I signed up on here and posted, and everyone on huddle knew who I was too back in the day. Sorry to hear that Tvc_fan and totally understand where you are coming from.

To each their own is right. I tell our kids all of the time, Freedom of Speech is not limitless, and not without consequences. You are free to say what ever you want, you however are not free to pick the consequence for it.

Agreed. I've never hid from who I am and am pretty open to it. Everyone in my community that comes here knows who I am.

I just always try to remain as positive as possible (while being sarcastic at times) because the negative stuff is pretty much everywhere and easy to see. Plus, this is high school sports we are talking about here, something that I assume we all enjoy.

And just like Raider, I'm not old, but my body thinks otherwise.

[VisionQuest]

Seems like some good old blood is pumping now. That's what I like to see. Keep it up Posters. Viewership just may go up and the increased Money from the Advertising can go the the Kids. Is that where the $$$ goes???-I don't know honestly-what is the money generated from the Ads used for???

[Orange and Brown]

Whoa now. Im neither old or in a basement. Lol

You're definitely not in a basement.....

[VisionQuest]

So here is my "take" on SEOPREPS-Just from the short time I have visited and tried to offer a different or unique perspective. In this Forum certain people want you to be "cookie cutter ". Let's not say anything that may offend anyone. Some don't even want you to give Recognition to these Ball Players. That is pretty sad. This is Life people-it's pretty darn Tough out there. And admit or not the ball players are in the Limelight. Just like an actor or actress they are going to be talked about and analyzed. Why??-because there are people who live their lives through their Alma Mater and their Sports Teams. It's called Pride and it gives some people a little more reason to Tolerate this thing we call Life. You want more people to Post just not View-then they are Shutdown with Negativity-Some Want to live life through "rose colored glasses"....Well guess what Dorothy-you aren't in Kansas anymore. And as Forrest Gump would say-"that's all I got to say about that"

meet me over in the "getting off topic" Thread Barlow...lets go-Unless you are Scared....

[Prime Time]

My opinion is maybe the Bulldogs really aren't as good as some fans think they should be!

[thebarlowbandit]

You should probably spend more time watching film and game planning.

[sportsmom20]

Fans watch film and game plan? Interesting

[VisionQuest]

The only Film I watch is the movie VisionQuest. Now there is a movie some of these kids should watch. Teach them a little about Heart. Just Censor out those scenes with Matthew Modine and what's her name-that probably wouldn't go over so well with some Parents....LOL
