Some people will dwell on the tough loss Friday, but the coaching staff and players have to move on to their third full week of games in a row. The team opens up on Monday against Ste. Genevieve at home in what will hopefully be a bounceback game. The turnaround comes quick though as Sikeston plays a very experienced Perryville team in Perryville the next night. Finally, Friday is a rematch with Notre Dame, this time at their place. By that point, it will be the Sikeston teams ninth game in eighteen days, a tough pace. The wear of playing so many games so shortly could be wearing on the team by then. What are the thoughts of this weeks slate of games as we prepare to go into the Christmas break?
Replies
Sikeston has a gauntlet of games upcoming....starting this week. They have this 3 game set, then the Christmas tournament. After that, the Charleston rematch then Imagine Prep the next day with Desoto sometime in January as well. The next two games this week should be good wins with a knock down drag out fight at ND on Friday....i expect another hard fought win. They have about 10 days off before the Christmas tournament which should give them some needed rest.
I don't see Sikeston having a hard time at all with St. Gen and Pville. I DO see a very close game at ND, and quite possibly a different outcome. Sikeston will be playing their 3rd game in 5 days, and it's at ND. The game was pretty competitive last time, I expect an even closer game Friday. Wish I could be there!
Farm, you may be right. I can GUARANTEE that Sikeston won't overlook ND! I think Sikeston is going to have a chip on their shoulder now! Upcoming teams better watch out!!
ooooooohhoo, i scaried racket689. get reel Bucko, i may have just whot jest been gone butt now i am back in black Bub! for somesone to have a cow chip on there sholder sounds like a tecknical foul to me Bucko.
En ingles, por favor?
Snot bubble! Bearcat has been laying like a snake in the grass waiting for his revenge.
FarmBoy, Rocket, I'm in agreeance with both of you. That Notre Dame game is going to be a dogfight in every sense of the word. The bullseye on Sikeston was big before but now that they lost, it has made them really vulnerable in the eyes of a lot of opponents. Last year, the ND game left a bad taste in the player's mouth right before Christmas by scoring a lot of late points to make the game competitive. From there, the team used that motivation to average wins by more than thirty points. Let's see how last week's loss and this week's games make an impact.
Perryville is a trap game on the road on Tuesday. Right before another huge matchup with ND. Perryville is senior laden, they are 6-0, and are enormous on size and they won 18 games last year and returned everybody. Hopefully Sikeston just takes care of business as usual.
If anything, I think Sikeston's loss against Charleston was a good thing. I would rather lose a big game earlier than later. Charleston exposed things that Sikeston needs to work on over the next two months to get ready for a state run.
And plus, Sikeston's players will be hungry to prove to the world that they are just as good now as they were hyped up to be before Friday's game.
We've got to cut down on the fouls, we pretty much played one half of actual defense, mainly because of the inconsistent refs. Either let them play or call a consistent tight game, not pick and choose.
And charelston made a lot of shots, a lot of uncontested shots. And you have to give them credit for that.
I'm definitely not worried about that loss, hate to see it. But definitely not a huge thing to worry about
Agreed, Dustin. The loss will sting for a little while, but once they get back to work and winning they will get past it. Hopefully it will put a BIG chip on their shoulder.
ste.gen has a basketball team
Sikeston will deffenently beat Desoto haha..thats a good laugh though
Fans may take it lightly. The Sikeston players and coaches will not.
It isn't time to worry about DeSoto yet. I think we can beat them because I think the work that Coach is going to make these guys put in over break is going to be more than adequate. However, let's keep the focus on the full slate we have this week.
They're missing Eldrige Gibson who would be playing in the 4 spot , but he made some bad decisions. I think coach Holifield should start J.T. Jones in the 5 spot , because he has size and great foot work for a post player.

JT should be a starter, he was the one guy Charleston couldnt guard...and the Coleman kid needs to cut the tough guy act out, if he concentrated on being the best player he could be instead of trying to get under theopponents skin he would be fine...Ruffin is becoming a stud, he scored sum buckets with some pretty good defense on him, he had to work for everything he got and he did a fine job...Jamison for all the ALLEN IVERSON comparisons he had a very mediocre game...I mean by you guys standards he was the best guard Sikeston had...I'll take Ruffin over Jamison anyday...
Let's see....Ruffin had 17 and Jamison had 15. Two points takes a person's game from pretty good to mediocre. Wow! Tough crowd! Thanks for trying to stir the pot though!
Is mamba jayjayblue?
The Dogs will bounce back tonight. I bet we see a lot of intensity and hunger. I won't get to see them again until the St. Dominic tourney. Can't wait!!!
People are just stupid, kilron has put in so much more work these past two years to become a better player, he's gotten a lot of great looks so far this year they just haven't been falling. As for the "tough" guy act, I have no clue what your even talking about. He plays in your face defense and he doesn't back down to anyone, if anything that's how you should be playing. He plays with a lot of emotion too, and that's one of the few things Id like to see us use more of.
And Jamison is the best finisher hands down, he can drive in on anyone created contact and finish the shot. And then make the free throw. He's the most complete player on our team.
And v is just a stud, he looks like a monster on the court and he can make things happen.
who wouldnt bounce back against STE. GEN lmao...or PERRYVILLE? you guys dont have to ever worry bout losing to those two opponents, they are at best the worst class 4 have to offer, so I expect a blowout...Havnt you guys beat them for the last umteen years...senior laden or not PERRYVILLE and STE. GEN are cupcakes on the schedule...you guys have practicwe today and tomorrow..lol you have a game fri at ND..
best player on the court fri night was RYAN PARHAM both ends of the floor...hands down...
Black mamba, your just making yourself look dumb. You guys dont have the toughest schedule either.
And I'm glad you think that he's the best player, but to me JT jones looked the most dominating.. As a sophomore.
But there's really no point in arguing with you, just remember you'll have to receive just as much crap as you dish out if y'all lose.
But I will say that I was more impressed with Ryan then I was Tucker.
Terry Jamison is the heart and soul of this team! I have never seen a guard of his size get in there and rebound with the big guys the way he does! Do I think he is the most athletic kid on this team? No, but this team does not go near as far without Jamison! He is the the glue for this team, and what makes them go! He also does all of this without talking a bunch! He quietly works his butt of and goes about his business, and leads this team! He is special player and a special kid!
Dustin why does Tuck have to impress you? He is signed already, obviously he's impressed somebody, during his junior year, with him being the only player signed besides the two from Desoto...Does he have work to do to get better? Yes... I still think he is the best player in the area, I didn't see or read about anybody else getting recruited by D-1 schools, so he must have game...I'm quite sure the recruiters know more than you do about hoops...
Ruffin can go D1..Tisdale is gonna go D1..Meystedt can go D1..Desotos signees are not legit D1 recruits..Dicky Nutt dropped the ball in signing them..complete waste of scholarships..but thats besides the point..and i agree with Ruby..Parham impressed me more than Tuck..when you shoot 30 times a game your gonna score..i know a few charleston players and they have told me that in some games they play "keepaway" from him so he doesnt shoot over and over..from what ive seen he thinks he is better than he is and obviously you do too Mamba..dont get me wrong he is a legit D1 recruit..all im saying is he is selfish
I didn't say CAN go I said is going... All this talk about what & who can go, Im simply saying he has inked his name on the line, before he played a game his senior year... That's what I was saying... I know the team player very well, as an alumni of the school we scrimmage those guys alot before season started & I know greg shoots alot but that's on Farmer, he has to step in & say that...as for the 2 Desoto recruits, I think Nutt did good to sign them, they have time to develop, I mean it's not like Mike Porter the "4time all stater" is worthy of his scholarship either then, avg 2pts & 1.2 reb a game... I live in Cape I hear & see all the jokes that ppl say around town when we see him...lol.. Total bust!! Must've gained 50lbs after high school... Heck Tuck can go score 2 a game right now... Whether he shoots too much or not, he is going to play D-1 ball...
i dont think you realize the difference in talent between highschool and division one basketball..Tucker will be lucky to play his freshmen and sophmore years..
Red dog Ruffin might go d-1 but I definitely don't see the other 2 are d1 material at least not right out of high school. If you don't think tuck will play his first couple years (which I agree) what makes you think the other guys are even close to being legit d1 material
I was just saying he impressed me more, could honestly care less
Oh yes I do... I'm well aware of it, being that Ive played D-1 football for 4yrs at Arkansas state from 93-96... Lol I'm quite sure I know... No it's not easy & if he red shirt that's fine too, he'll get stronger & better... It takes alot of self motivation & discipline, which Tucker has already showed he has... You may not know, Sikeston had/has one guy go play D-1 ball & that qualifies you guys to know how hard it is... Lmao... We know it's hard 4time all state Mike Porter ain't tearing it up at SEMO avg 2pts a game...

In a post actually related to the topic at hand, Sikeston defeats Ste. Genevieve 92-29. The team looked good and bounced back well. Hopefully, they avoid the trap game against Perryville tomorrow night. I'm excited.
What does Michael porter have to do with Tucker though? You can't just assume a good highschool player is going to be a stud in college.
I'm not saying he won't be because he should be good. But what qualifies you to be able to say that he will be? Can you tell the future?
He's just another blujaypride, Dustin. Bloviating for the sake of bloviating.
Mamba's just trying to relive his glory days.
We should just call him bloviater.
^^This^^
No need to we relive those days every year when we play SCC in an alumni game... It's only fitting that the 2 most successful programs in state get it on still today... but u know, I would love to beat, I mean play Sikeston alumni again... Let Ruffin's dad get what he use to get from us, a thrashing... Lol gotta love those jays!!!
Pretty cruel talking about Michael Porter that way Black Mamba/jayjayblue/bluejayfanatic or whoever you are. You do realize he had a life-threatening car wreck, has not played ball in nearly two years, had an appendicitis, had hip surgery, had foot surgery just a couple months ago. I mean geez, lets put everybody through that gauntlet and see how you come out. It's unfortunate that these things have happened to Michael. He is a great person and a fantastic basketball player...one of the best high school players to come out of this area. Will he ever get back to where he once was? I don't know, but have a heart. You can hate on Sikeston and all its graduates and former players if you want, but lets be human beings first. Geez.
Ummm, Ruffin's dad beat Charleston his senior year and his sophomore year. Bad example Black Mamba.
Mamba is easily one of the most arrogant pot-stirrers we've ever had on this site.
My Dad is bigger than your Dad!
Glory days, they'll pass ya by
Glory days, in a wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days...
Yeah, nobody cares...
And Michael porter was something you weren't, a four time all-stater.
Black mamba has the dumbest points for arguments, and if you bring it up he just completely ignores it.
75-71....home court streak, check...number 1 state rank, check... #1 semo ranking, check...35 game win streak, check... "I believe that we will win" " I believe that we will win" " I believe that we will win"!!! 12/9/2011... I'm signing off till jan 6, 2012!!! Elvis lives
BM24 must be living in regret of wat he couldnt finish...Please rest until Jan 6.Check that.Jays Plays Lays Ways Mays Pays...Riddle that.LOL
You are so corny... Wat? Must be a wanna be thug... What!!
So the standard democrat article about sikeston rebounding and beating st. Gen was put up before the Feeling Blue article about them losing to charleston!? Or am I just missing it!?
You're missing it. It's on there and was on there Saturday night late.
Okay thanks. Could you provide with the link to it!?
Okay I found it. It didn't have the feeling blue heading, wow it musta been on the front page for like 5 minutes.
Buck....we'll make sure to leave the Sikeston THRASHING NMCC on the front page for much longer!!!
BuckMajor you may want to take up your concerns with semoball moderator Rachel Crader for burying the Sikeston articles. If you ask nicely, she may leave them up longer so you can read all about the Bulldogs. Why aren't you interested in reading about your own NMCC Eagles though? Why such an interest in Sikeston?
It was on the front page from Saturday night, through Sunday, and until Monday morning until the new stories pushed it down.
Everyone please take a deep breath. Enough with the attacking other people. I'd like to not have to delete any more comments.
Just wanted to read the article guys, I like looking at the stats, especially with all the guard talk going on between the two teams on other threads. I didn't get my Monday paper. When sikeston thrashes NMCC, like they prolly will, I'll read that article too.
Remember Buck. Speak nicely of the Bulldogs or be banished to the firey pits by Rocket. Just one simple sarcastic remark gets his blood pressure up and in defense mode! And don't even dare to state your OWN OPINION! That's even worse! That's HIS team and don't forget it! It's ok for him to respond with a response about someone else's team but DON'T DARE talk about HIS Bulldogs! Hahaha!
That's correct, Buck! If you say something that is totally baseless and without merit, be ready for repercussion from myself and other Sikeston posters. You know...kinda like mmorse did. Then when your asanine post is shown to be what it is....simple hogwash....go pout about it. Then TRY to say what you are offering is an "opinion" when it is being offered as fact....you know kinda like mmorse did. Then...then....don't defend what you say, just start with personal attacks. You know....kinda like mmorse did.
mmorse is an obvious Sikeston fan you know. The rest of the Sikeston fans come on here and just BASH the coaching staff and players.
Baseless? Kinda like your comment that I EVER posted ANYTHING about the coaching staff or player? I have NEVER ONCE said a players name and HAVE NOT said one word about the coaching staff! Try again Red Rocket!
Baseless.....see below....
I think Sikeston has one problem....they have a ME ME ME person on the team! (quoting from mmorse)
Any Sikeston fan knows to whom you are referring....nice try though. Oops! There goes the calling out the player. I'll give you credit on not ACTUALLY saying the player...just implying his name.
"Red Rocket".....see personal attacks. That means you have no evidence to support the contrary.
So, by using the ME ME ME then everyone knew who I was talking about? If "everyone" knew who I was talking about how was I wrong? Obviously you have seen it, or you wouldn't have known who I was talking about right?
Rocket... Do you think this person is a ball hog also? As an outsider I DIDN'T have a clue who he is calling out! So I guess the ME ME ME is about one player cause I take it as several players are about themselves!
Funny how you do seem to know who the ball hog is!!!!!!!!!! LOL
I think Rocket needs a Bulldog Intervention.
They might need to send you away for Bulldog Detox because I think you might be losing your marbles!!!
I "knew" to whom you were referring because other non-Sikeston posters have actually said his name. Genius!
indian....I know who others SAY is the ballhog. No, I don't for one minute think this person is a ballhog. You don't have to share my opinion or even like it. For all I care, you can skip over what I say. But.....when someone makes a baseless claim against the Bulldogs, I will supply evidence to the contrary.
I don't know who their referring to because our leading scorer leads in assists too I believe.
That's my point, Dustin! Thank you!
Get em moderator.
Anyone who has seen Sikeston play for 10 minutes knows that there is not a selfish kid in the bunch. Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot.
Only bad thing about Ruffin, is he can't play defense.
Cheesehead & rocket I see I'm not the only one who thinks you guys play cupcakes.... Looking on mosports fh451 is saying the same things I've been saying... You can't improve by blowing out ste gen by 63 & saying you guys have to play them because they're a district foe... You guys have been doing it for years against these types of teams.... Sikeston has been good the last 3,4 yrs but check out some very lop sided scores, good or not you can't say it's class... You guys do run the score up, for instance watch the score tonight from your practice today , I mean game vs P'ville... A blowout I'm saying now b4 the game even starts... You guys know how to pile up some wins...
And the bloviation continues. Lots of hot air.
Additions to the past two years schedules:
Imagine Prep- playoff contender
St. Dominic tournament
The game in Arkansas, was suppose to be a better team.
Besides the fact we'll play charelston twice, ND possibly three times. Desoto who is suppose to be pretty good, and cape who is a quality basketball team.
That's 10 games that will help us improve, perryville won 18 games last year, and returned everyone. They are a district foe, so your saying to not play them because you claim their not as good? How will you know how a team is going to be when scheduling them? You want us to break all ties with teams we've played for years, and may I ask to play who?name 10 quality teams that we could play closer than perryville.
Last year our schedule didn't hurt us, and I've never heard people complain about our schedule until we started winning:
So you can dream of whatever schedule you want, but I'll take coach hollifields schedule to make our team better. We might not have the history other schools do, but were starting a legacy now.
So you can continue to make yourself look dumb, but whatever's happening in sikeston, it's definitely taking us in the right direction. In all sports
Sikeston leads Perryville 31-29 at half. Settling for too many outside shots. Need to penetrate more.
That's what she said! LOL
Thanks for the score...no internet feed from Sikeston radio for me tonight.
Called a buddy about the KSIM stream. Hopefully they can get it up for the 2nd half. They have something backwards or not flipped in the studio.
What station is the game on
Radio - either 1520 AM - 98.9 FM or 1400 AM
Internet usually www.1400ksim.com but something isn't flipped in the studio and it is only get commercials and bumper music on the stream.
Thanks
Rocket, are you at the game?
Sikeston up 50-39 over Perryville now
Sikeston leads 50-39 after three. They have really ratcheted up the pressure.
Kilron Coleman with 10 Points
Terry Jamison with 16 Points
Keldon Warfield with 9 Points
Vashawn Ruffin with 11 Points
Sikeston now up 56-46
SIkeston still up 8 with less that 5 minutes remaining in game!
Perryville's size is controling the BOARDS and breaking the press with ease per radio!
Sikeston up by 8 still...
2:42 minutes left in game!
Surprised Perryville is keeping it that close...interesting.
62-56 Sikeston over Perryville...
Coleman with 12 points
Jamison with 18
Warfiled with 9
Ruffin with 11
McGee with 8
I'm here and I said it in the summer. Perryville is a competitor in this district.
Jamison at the line with :42 left hits both for 20 points in the game...
Coleman with 12
Jamison with 24
Warfield with 9
Ruffin with 13
McGee with 8
70-61 FINAL
Sikeston Win against Perryville
Sikeston wins 70-61.
Sounds like there's a little competition in Class 4 District 1 this year.
I don't care what anyone says but TERRY is the best player on this team!!
That must have been one nasty tasting cupcake haha.
Said it before the week began, this was a trap game. Rocket and I saw it in person. One game left before the boys finally get an extended break.
Somebody tell me that Terry Jamison is not the heart and soul of this team
NO... I saw SEMOHOOPS say that!
I'm here and I said it in the summer. Perryville is a competitor in this district.

Thanks for naming your sources indian!!
Still think Sikeston doesn't have the absolute stranglehold on the district this year like they did the last year or two.
I agree Farm... I know I don't have a dog in this fight but I can see Notre Dame pulling off the upset. Looks like Perryville could improve and cause issues also!
In a post actually related to the topic at hand, Sikeston defeats Ste. Genevieve 92-29. The team looked good and bounced back well. Hopefully, they avoid the trap game against Perryville tomorrow night. I'm excited.-Sideline Starter, earlier in the thread.
I could see perryville beating ND. They shot fairly well tonight and their size is a different size from Jackson.
And then perryville could say just like soccer
I can see Pville beating ND, ND beating Sikeston, Pville beating Sikeston, ND beating Pville. Etc.
A 15 point swing in sikeston farmboy?
Your going to have to put up 70+ on us to neat us realistically. And I dont see very many teams accomplishing that
15 point game at Sikeston. I can see it being closer, especially at ND. Not sure where districts are, but I don't see it being a rout, not after some of the results so far this season.
Like NMCC and ND tonight? And it's in sikeston farmboy
You are correct... I see where you posted that now! One day after is an original quote from the one the only SIDELINESTARTER!

Don't quite see us playing NMCC in our district tournament.
Sikeston has lost district games in Sikeston before...lot of basketball to play before districts.
But you lost a New Madrid team who many consider "rebuilding"
We also played a respectable game against Sikeston AT Sikeston. NMCC doesn't have much to do with that, do they?
Just like new Madrid beating Notre dame anything can happen in bball
I'm just asking if tonights game makes you think ND is capable of upsetting sikeston. Was it at ND?
And y'all also played a respectable game last year against us too
mmorse, I usually avoid everything you say, but it has really become annoying! I don't know if you are or were an athlete that didn't make it and now you sit at home playing your PS3 thinking of comments to bash people on here but it has gotten old and worn out! These forums have gotten somewhat tolerable after some of the trash was taken out so please don't take it back to that level. I'm not being rude at all, just tone it back so some real HS sports fans can enjoy these forums. Thanks
Dustin, yes it was at ND
Not sure where it was.
Again, NMCC has nothing to do with Sikeston-ND. If ND and Sikeston hadn't met yet, I'd say it doesn't look good. But considering they have, and it wasn't a blowout, losing to NMCC has as much affect on my opinion as how well the Patriots played this week.
Whats wrong with sitting at home playing PS3?!
Hahaha! I'm kinda partial to the 360 myself. lol
Nothing FarmBoy..I play my xbox at night lol
I'm living out my lack of athletic success through a 5 inch tall virtual running back.
Cheese & Farm, there is a BIG difference in your posts than that persons posts. At least your's have merit to them! Haha!
I am playing 360 right now...
FROM THE CORNERRRRR!!!!!!!!
^^^HAHAHA!!!!
Look mand whatever your name is. Like it or not there are some that agree with my posts, sometimes. Some posts are just because I am bored and like to "stir the pot" a little. I don't feel my posts need to be "PC" so I don't hurt someones feelings. Don't like them, don't read them.
I don't like to post on here until I see more games but I watched Sikeston play 2 games last week and last night in Perryville. I have to agree with some of the other posts on here that the Sr boys need to step up or get benched. Sikeston's coach is a great coach in a bad situation, if they were to lose to ND this week he will have to make some changes in his starters.
The Jones kid is for real and needs to start, well instead of going on and on Sikeston should have 1 Sr. starting and that would be Jamison.
I hope he doesn't for our sake because we will beat you at Cape Central this year with those starters.
Thanks tlks2much.You are right if a upperclassman isnt getting the job done then have him sit and watch from a non starting position.Im sure once you see how hard another is working you will get fired up and play hard.We live in a day were kids think that it just suppose to be that way.They would quit if they loss that starting position.
tlks2much....I'm not sure I would say quite yet that Cape Central will beat Sikeston this year. Cape's guard play is suspect....I'm basing it on the game against ND. And you guys didn't exactly manhandle PB. Yes, Cape does have a size advantage, but that can be overcome. I just don't think Cape can handle Sikeston's press and the stifling D.....IMO. Again, we will see when the two meet.
Regarding the starters....I, as a Sikeston fan, don't get TOO hung up on starters because of the way the kids are shuffled in and out. Coach Holifield knows the players better than any of us and I can assure you he sees who is doing what. Like I have said before, there is something to be said for a kid (or two in Sikeston's case...Jones and Bratcher) who can come in and score 10+ off the bench. I will defer to the coach on the personnel issues.
Sikeston plays about 9 or 10 regularly, so being a starter isn't a big deal. Those 9 or 10 are going to get big minutes.
Rocketboy, so Sikeston's defense is now "stifling"? Wow.
I will agree, though, with Rocketboy on the starters comment. Anybody that knows ANYTHING will tell you that it's not who starts the game that matters but rather, who "finishes". Quit worrying about the starters yaps2much!
Sikeston doesn't really play 9 or 10 this season... it is more like 7 or 8.
The only bench players really seeing much playing time are Bratcher, Jones and Gross.
Just don't know if coach is confident enough to put the others in at this time unless the game is in control!
Thanks Scott...
I just think this team is going to take a little longer to gel than last years group. I actually see Jarius Ray jumping some of the other bench players by seasons end.
LISTEN>>>> THEY WILL GET BETTER! AND THEY WILL BE AS TOUGH AS ANYONE IN CLASS 4 BY SEASONS END!
Starting is about as important as being declared "the worlds smallest midget". If nothing else, you could leave the sophomore coming off the bench to keep him from feeling entitiled.
again... right now... WE WILL BE BETTER THAN YOU THINK!
STILL EARLY!!!
Nice one GSP! HoopsIsharted again, with all of those capital lock keys you are typing with you'd think you would be brushing on your (lack of) basketball skills so you could take the ultimate challenge and play me. It's ok though, if I were you I'd ignore this challenge also. I don't think you have the size OR the strength to keep up with me in a full-court game of one on one.
Full-court game of one on one?? I thought if you played one on one it's half court? You must have some serious cardio Hemingway! Much props.
Cheesehead, I don't know about that but I think I've got enough cardio to wear out Rocketboy and his twin brother HoopsIshartedagain any day of the week (and twice on Sunday). Thanks! We can actually play it half-court as these two Jacklegs will not wanna run up and down with the number one Stunner!
When and where?
You name it partner! I have ball and will travel! I'll even give you and Sprocketboy a few weeks to "train", kinda like Rocky going to Russia to take on the big Russian, Dragos. "I vill break you", spelled like it sounds. I "vill" break you down so get those knee/ankle braces strapped on.
That will not be fair... You can have bearcat on tour team!
*your
Um, yea..........no bearcat on my team shartboy! Believe me, 1 on 2 will still not be fair for you and your little tick turd Sprocketboy. I am quick like a mongoose.
Ok... ROcket and I will take on you and Bearcat!
Just tell us when and where!
Tell us all cause I want to see and I don't know who any of U guys are
I cannot wait for us to start going on a roll so everyone will quit doubting us
@Dustin... I agree, This team is just needing some time to adjust to their new roles! I don't see any way this team will not improve!
We have the intangibles to be even better than last year, our lack of size was exactly the same last year. CP was a dominate big man, and Keldon and JT are doing a good job filling his shoes.
We shoot even better than last year, and we can still run the floor.
If we cut down on the fouls and don't allow teams in the bonus so early we'll be fine.
And were getting everyone's A game, every single night.
It just gets old listening to people with so much "basketball knowledge" base our future off one game.
And Scott people said Desoto was suppose to give us a game last year too, until we ran them out of the gym. Unless their able to run with us like charelston was able too, then I dont see them beating us.
We lose one game....to a VERY GOOD team...and we may not win districts....according to the experts. I suppose anything is possible, but we are still the favorite. It's not like we lost to a chump school. Charleston is VERY GOOD and will probably make a deep run in Class 3.
"Getting everyones A-game every night." Yawn.
Sort of like how your schools coach admitted to over looking NMCC last night for the sikeston game farmboy. Or is that just bad coaching. Like it or not every team is going to want to beat sikeston worse then they want to beat any other team.
Whatever mmorse. If you feel the need to "stir the pot" at least do it with some class and some factual content!
Maybe that's because of the fans...
As if every team doesn't have arrogant fans.
Aww... Poor baby, are u mad because n
Ummmm, don't want to be a killjoy, but Sikeston cannot be better than last year, this year.
And ur saying that because we lost a game this year and not last year I assume
I said they will be better... NOT better than last season! So I don't know if you are talking to me but I agree we are not and probably will not be better than last season! We will still be a Top Class 4 Basketball Team
Better means they will get better than they are now and I feel we will keep improving all year long!
Yeah last year was last year!! Can't live off last year, and besides it's in the past... Isn't what you guys always say? C.P.,J.H.,D.H.,W.H. Is not walking through that door...
No, wasn't referring to either of your posts. I know why now I don't like posting on this site.
People on here are like WHOA.TO BLACK I see in all the banners that Charleston has they have on ething in common with Sikeston That is having 1 undefeated season thru all titles.The worst record Charleston had was a 12/10 season are sumthin close to that and won state.Its about how u finish.Yes of course Sikeston was the big target.When it all comes down to it C town S town Bernie SCC alot of schools that are making noise have to make noise when it counts.Yes expand on your strong point an get better at eliminating your weak points.Its a forum thats what blogging is about.There are alot of good match ups in big an small.Its all aboiut the heart and what goes right one way or another.Kentucky loss on a last second shot was the team better prob not jus that night they were.
I said they have all the intangiables to be better. A poster player who can score 20 on a given night and snag 10 rebounds also, a post player who can bring down lots of rebounds and give you quality points. (JT and Keldon)
3 players who can hit threes anywhere on the court. (V, Terry and Caleb)
Terry has improved a ton from last year also.
Were a better shooting team as a whole.
So gianthook if you going to call someone out, at least make it right.
And there's more we could do better we just haven't yet, we do lack a leader who has a voice out on the court. Were only going to get better, and I'm just going to sit back and watch
And mamba there's a huge difference between last year and the 80's and you know it. Be ignorant while you can
Lol, and that kid IS serious gianthook. That's the bad part about it.
Okay farmboy, we'll see at the end of the season. Last years team was extremely talented, and if you say this years team isn't talented then your being biased and lying. Their not going to be the exact same team, last years team had weaknesses and there's things that they were better at then this years team. And there's things this years team is better at then last years.
And I didnt get your last post, I guess I was right about that too.
I know Farm. It wasn't even an attempt to call someone out, but to be better means to do something to a higher or greater degree (better=adverb in this case).
They might have all the intangibles to score more points in the paint. They might be a better shooting team as a whole.
But they can't be better than last year because they have a '1' in the L column.
Didn't say they weren't talented. But I've heard the same crap for years now ...don't dare insinuate Sikeston isn't at least top 3 in the state or you're just a hater. Yawn.
@ Dusting Ruby, yea I've been telling these players they need a leader. Terry is the point guard; therefore, he should be the leader.
It would be impossible for any team in Missouri to ever be better then last years team by that reasoning hook. Is that what your saying?
No, that's what you said.
Farmboy, first off the yawn thing has gotten extremely old already and it makes me think of you as a woman. Secondly it's because they have deserved it
"But they can't be better than last year because they have a '1' in the L column"
No you said it, because I'm not sure its possible to go 31-0, and if were going by wins and losses to determine if a team is better than another, theres no actual way any team could be better.
I guess we witnessed the best team in Missouri History last year
No, you said in an earlier post that they would be better. Sikeston could've been better this year if they had gone 31-0, 32-0, 33-0, 34-0.
It's all about W's and L's when it's all said and done.
Ha! You'll be calling me names soon if I'm not careful. You sure do a fine job of representing Sikeston. Lol.
They were being hyped as the best thing ever on message boards the first time they made it past districts in the 2000's. They were being hyped when they only beat ND by 7 or 8 without Ryan Willen on the floor then got steamrolled in districts.
If anyone makes any comment that Sikeston may not be the best team around or may not do something as well as someone else, you can bet there will be several Sikeston posters up in arms about by the next morning.
I agree with you about the fans farmboy. We used to hear from another bunch of arrogant fans until their team became mediocre. Now we don't hear from their fans at all! Well, except for one!
I wasn't saying anything during those times because I was like 12, name two teams in the SEMO area that are better Farmboy, if we weren't good I wouldn't care.
Farmington was better then us in football, I'll admit when were not the best team. Charelston beat us in a game that could have gone either way.
You keep saying were all hype, but as long as I've been on this board we've produced.
You guys get on here and cry and whine when people don't respect your opinions. Who hhonestly cares, if you can't don't like people not argeeing with you then don't say anything about sikeston
I just get on here to argue with you guys, mostly you farmboy because you like to think like you know it all. And you never admit when your wrong.
I'll admit I was wrong about the Warrenton Game
And gainhook, idk if we would be able to have more then 30 total games
I'm starting Christmas vacation, we can continue this tonight
Dustin, most schools play 16 games and 3 tournaments. There are other scheduling options (18 and 2 is one I believe, along with 20 and 1).
The most games I can remember a team winning was 33. SCC and Charleston in '90 and '91 were 33-0 (Not sure what season which team won those years but it was '90 and '91).
Chances are 33 would be the most games a team could play. 16 regular season games, a 16-team tournament for 4 games, conference tournament with 3 games (I don't know of many, if any, conferences that have 9 or 10 teams, 3 games in a district tournament (it's possible to play 4 (Class 2 District 1 in the mid-late 90's had 10 teams, so there were 2 pigtail games (7 vs 10, 8 vs 9) to play into the main bracket)).
I was thinking 34 but I can't get more than 33 that I can think of.
Good choice. It's playing at the midnight show in Cape soon.
SCC might have had a 34 win season when they also had the regional round of the Class 1A playoffs. And then four games in the Christmas tournament and probably an extra game in district. So yeah, back then it was possible to get up to 34 wins. With today's format, I suppose the most possible games a team could play are 32 or 33 but 34 wins may never be possible. Way back in the 50s I think Puxico won over 40 games once or twice. Obviously that will NEVER happen again with the current format.
As usual farmboy, you let a few message board fans influence your opinion. As I've said many times, if you would stay off the message boards and just watch the way Sikeston plays and conducts themselves on the court, then you'd probably feel differently about them. Unless there are other motives for your dislike of Sikeston, which is entirely possible being that they are rivals of your two high schools you attended. If that is the case, then I understand your disdain. It's natural to not like your rival. Sure, Sikeston has rivals that I don't like and it has absolutely nothing to do with what I read on message boards, but just because it is our rival. (And believe me, there have been teams' fans that have been over the top on message boards long before Sikeston) back in the early 2000s. Or better yet, attend any game of some of the local teams (particularly at some small schools) and you would see poor sportsmanship at its peak. However, I form my opinions of teams by what I watch on the floor. Not what fans say on message boards or in the stands. It is the product on the floor that matters. It is the ONLY thing that matters to me. How do the players play? How do they behave? How do they compete? How does the coach act? Those are the things I'm watching. NOT what the fans are doing. I could care less about that. I suggest you try it too.
I've said it MANY times and I'll say it again...Sikeston players and coaches are as classy as you'll see anywhere. Not to mention they've been very competitive over the past few years. Their fans ruin it for me though.
Ignore them. That's what I've learned to do when I see over the top behavior from other school's fans, which happens everywhere at every game. The only difference here is that Sikeston's fans dominate the message boards. It's the only difference. If you viewed it from our perspective and saw some of the things we've seen from ND fans, you might not like them. But I have no dislike for ND. I respect their team and program as much as any around. Do I want them to lose? Of course, because that is the team we have to get through to reach our goals. But it isn't because of their fans.
And to be fair, ND's kids play exceptionally hard (at least the games I've seen) and are always respectful and courteous every time I've encountered them. Sometimes they lose their cool on the court at times like any high school kid can, but I have no negative thoughts about their players in general.
Stl38 we've never had a team that won state lose 10/12 games never!!! I dnt know where you got that info from but it's not accurate... I just wanted to make that point...
I did see something following the Charleston-Sikeston game that surprised me and I'm sure Coach Holifield will address it once he sees the film. The occurrence may not have been visible to the Sikeston side as it happened right in front of the scorer's table and the players were shaking hands between the scorer's table and the Sikeston fans....that is, all but one player was shaking hands. And, I'm sure that with maturity and Coach Holifield's guidance, that player will display the same level of sportsmanship in the future that the rest of the team does.
Yep, it was addressed. Will it happen again? Possibly, but it will be addressed again, and again, and again, until done correctly. One has to remember, that was the first loss EVER, going on down to 7th grade basketball for some of Sikeston's players. It was something very new to them. I'm sure anybody that stayed saw Sikeston's players and coaches paying their respects to Charleston and applauding them as they received their trophies. Sikeston wins with class and they lose with class.
Yeah Mamba is right, Charleston never won state with that many losses. Maybe 6 or 7 at the most. Although an interesting tidbit, Vashon won state in 1983 with a 12-19 record. That means they entered district play with a record of about 6-19. Ummm, WOW
Competition brings out the best/worst in players and fans. Sikestons bum section brings their best to every game, good or bad, they bring it. The Jungle, used to be a huge advantage for Cape. They were just as obnoxious and loud as the Bums get. Notre Dames crew was the same a few years back. All have one thing in common...WINNING! That's the great thing about High School sports, find the winner and find the craziness that ensues. Crazy fans and crazy games. Hopefully Sikeston can bring on the CRAZIES for another year, and another, and another.
People are definitely more fanatical and obnoxious when you're winning. It all goes in cycles. In the early 2000s when Dexter was rolling, their fans DOMINATED Mosports. It was crazy. They have a dryspell and then there is nothing to talk about anymore. It will happen to Sikeston as well. Maybe not soon, but at some point Sikeston will have a down season and the fans will disappear. That's just how the world works. You win, you talk. You're losing, there's nothing to talk about.
Check your banners I said close.I know I saw 8 losses on one.It wasnt a comment to get your arm pits sweaty an and your B\P up.It was jus a observation from a aspect that rather we represnet C town S town SCC town Cape town are where ever its about the finish.Instead of always trying to stir up something just think about how many good players come from the bootheel.That says alot.I went to Charleston in the Lamont and Leneord and Mo days trust me i kno the history.Just because I have followed the Sikeston guys watch them play AAU with Charleston so its not a dislike of Charleston I just hate when grown people get on here and talk about other people kids like they are nothing.Be glad that the guys are in school being productive.Not out sellin smoking robbing.So give me a break and the kids all over who put their heart and soul in the game.
Well said stlfan38. People forget what is important and get so caught up in gloating and trash talking.
I think Semo is trying to use bigger words than me.....Bring it....lol
Stl38... I too attended school with those guys Fraz & Corbitt, not Mo but the other two I played football & basketball on the team with those guys, so I do know my history quite well... Honestly I didn't say anything out the way, I admit I do 'stir the pot' sometimes but I sure didn't on this situation... What by saying Charleston never won state with a team losing 10/12 games... That's a fact! So if I comment on the lack of facts means I'm attacking u? Lol, wow...okay!! I could post the records of the 10 teams that won, but I'm sure I'll get called out for 'gloating'...
With that being said, maybe Stl 38 & semohoops are referring to me & my Porter comment... Well Im speaking as a fan of Southeast & I'm going to call it like I see it... I never questioned Porter's character or accomplishments, I said he avg 2.0 & 1.8 reb a game... It's a FACT!! Do your research, I have obviously... Semohoops I know Mike had a car wreck & it was bad I know but that was never mentioned by me because I was stating the obvious...yes he's had it rough with wreck & surgery but that was at MSU..he also practiced with the team last year & summer & again this fall so u can spin it how you want, he is not getting it done!!! It's not hating, it's the truth... Period!
I was at the SCC game Tuesday night looking at all the state championships and final 4 basketball banners on the walls. I think I can safely call the SCC basketball program a Dynasty.
A girl sits down in front of me with a Sikeston Bulldog Basketball T-shirt that says "The Dynasty Continues".....really..1 state championship and you have a Dynasty? Maybe I'm wrong but doesn't it take years to become a Dynasty?
takes more than 1 state championship that's for sure.
Whoever said anything about SCC and dynasty's? I guess SCC hasn't been talked about enough since Bubba is gone so now igobybob feels he needs to shake things up a bit.
I don't know if Sikeston is worthy of the title 'dynasty' yet. However, since 2005 Sikeston is 144-29(.832) with 2 Quarterfinal losses, a 2nd place finish and a State Title.
bob....as a rabid Sikeston fan, I agree with you. One state title doesn't a dynasty make. I'm not calling you a liar....at all. Most of the Sikeston fans get their "gear" from the Booster Club. I don't recall the Booster Club selling a shirt that says "the dynasty continues." I do remember a football shirt that says "tradition doesn't graduate" and a shirt that says "we're back." We also sold some shirts that said 3 time district champ, etc. I don't ever recall a shirt like that. With that being said...she could have had it made or some "club" sold it, but not the Booster Club. Just wanted to tell you that MOST Sikeston fans are level-headed.
Sikeston,it's very hard to repeat as state champions, and you better believe that Perryville is better than some posters thought. Someone posted," i don't see them having trouble with St. Gen or Perryville. Woops, Sikeston wins by only 9 at Perryville 70-61.
What bothers me is that some people are in awww that Charleston beat Sikeston in basketball. Seriously!?!
NMCC beat Notre Dame!!! Wow!!! Maybe ND took the Eagles lightly, or Maybe there is something brewing in New Madrid.
Cape is overrated, and Tidsdale is overrated. D-1 material?? Are you serious?!?
To the posters, Caruthersville can compete with Charleston! Are you serious?!? Loosing to Kennet? Neither Caruthersville or Kennet can go into the doghouse against Sikeston and beat the Bulldogs.
Last but not least, Scott County Central. The Brave reign is O-V-E-R, good for class 1, but the Jays will have the mercy clock on the Braves by the fourth quarter.
Black can u check your banners I was in the birdhouse recently looked at the banners C town did lose 8 for sure u totally overlooked the line when I said close to 10.I say again not how u start but how u fnish.I believe at the beginning of last season birdfan was all on Farmer saying he needed to quit an town was goin no where.Then C town started playing better an got 3rd n state. So its easy to gloat when things go right but when things are a little sour then its a differan story.Thats for all schools sports fans.
Welcome to the forum LU BLUETIGERS. Some of your posts make sense. Some don't.
Ok starting off. Yes, Perryville is legit and on a given night is very capable of making noise.
Yeah, Charleston beat Sikeston. A lot of people are freaking out. It's one game. In 2007, Sikeston beat Charleston. The Bluejays ended up winning state. By that point they weren't too worried about that loss to Sikeston.
Caruthersville will compete with Charleston. They are good. Again, it's all matchups and that was one game.
SCC's reign is not over. They will contend for a state title this year. Charleston will not turbo clock them.
Not sure with happened with ND and NMCC. Very surprised by that. NMCC is better than I thought they would be though.
I didn't know Cape Central was rated at all? How are they overrated? Tisdale is good, but not sure about D-I.
Thanks to LU BLUETIGERS I feel a lot smarter now!
I think Sikeston and Charleston will return to Columbia. I hope we both can win it!! But Bernie want return or SCC. How about the Sikeston Lady Bulldogs, UNDEFEATED!!!!! Can people support the young LADIES!!!! They have a big test against Dexter, but wow!!!!!
To black I see the most as 6 on the web.The worst loss were 10 by McCluer an they won state.Sure i saw 8 on a banner no biggie.
The talk about Charleston and Sikeston is dumb. Two of the best programs going in the state right now. The hating is stupid. Get over it. You're both awesome.
Caruthersville will compete with Charleston. Think about what it means to "compete" Caruthersville is capable of beating Charleston. But Charleston is the better team right now and the favorite.
Not sure about Scott Central. You can't really go totally by scores all the time. But I really believe that, if Advance can play Scott Central that close on two different occasions then Scott Central is vulnerable. I'm not saying Advance isn't any good. They are solid. They are the favorites to win what is a fairly weak class 2, district 3 tournament. SCC will still roll through their district(mainly because it's weak), but there are several teams(South Iron, Risco, Leopold, etc. that could give them a run). I still give them a slight edge over these schools this year.
And they very likely could get turbo clocked by Charleston. But that doesn't mean they are not any good.
Interesting game tomorrow night between NMCC and Doniphan. Doniphan has been getting some props early on this year. NMCC just beat Notre Dame. I'll take NMCC in a close one.
Caruthersville has the team to beat Charleston. They have Belton McWilliams back in the Dyersburg Christmas Tourney so they will be much better just getting him back. With that said, it will be very difficult for Cville to go to Charleston and pull out a win. Cville is very young and a game like that will be tough. Charleston should be the favorite to win, they just beat Sikeston and a very good Meridian team from Ill. I don't think you can say that Charleston is any better this year than last year though, I just think Sikeston is not as good as they were last year. I don't think this Charleston team could have beaten last year's Sikeston's team IMO. I do agree though, they should be the favorite's to win districts this year until someone from the district beats them and Kennett and Caruthersville has the team's to do it, just won't be easy.
Cheese everybody is on the bandwagon that Sikeston isnt as good as last year.Goin undefeated doesnt make u better.There were some close games last year in the Stl louis tournament that two guys playing right now sealed the win because the senoirs were having not solid games.One game was won solely on free throws by Jamison I believe.Then people dont consider the fact that other teams get better as well.You look at Perryville Sikeston won by big double numbers last year.Provided that this year is the same squad they have worked and got better doesnt mean that Sikeston wasnt as good.Charleston was played by Dexter close till the fourth quarter and even Cape was up by 8 in the fourth.Does that mean Charleston is not better. No just that the other teams are improving as well.Sometimes u leave with a win even when u dont play as well as you know you can.New Madrid beat Notre Dame does that mean Notre Dame is lacking no just maybe New Madrid is workin and getting better.Just like march madness how many top seeds go down in upsets by low school so to speak.Thats why you gotta love the game.SORRY FOR THE ESSAY.
GSP i agree with you, I think NMCC is getting better, and I think they can win that game. it will be interesting. but one thing, the game is tonight and not tomorrow night. school gets out at noon tomorrow so i guess they scheduled it for tongiht so that the kids could start break at noon tomorrow.
I mean no disrespect towards any sikeston player but last year's Sikeston team was probably the best team Semo has seen in a long time. No way this year's team is on that level. I mean, they still will beat 99% of the area teams this year, that is just how good that program has become. They may have the ability to be just as good as last year, but that is something they are going to have to earn themselves. In the Charleston game, Sikeston was 4-17 from the 3 point line and I don't care what team it is, you shoot that poorly, then your going to lose against a good team. Charleston shot great that night and did what they had to do to win. Big props to them. I think by the end of Jan, the better teams will start to stand out more, it's just hard to judge who are real contenders, and who is just your average teams.
Im beyond the S-C game im stating area teams in general.That comment wasnt directed towards the context that u keep putting it in.Flip it u say C-ville is getting better right. Let tha critics say you are goin to get steam rolled by C town
People can think what they want. They have every reason to believe Charleston will steam roll Cville. Charleston has been playing great against good competition. Caruthersville is a young team without several starters so Charlston should be the favorite to win. Caruthersville will be getting better though, that I promise you. I don't hate on people for their opinion on my team or who they think will beat my team, it's their opinion. We don't play the games on here, the boys do on the court. I understand what your saying and respect that. I just gave my view on the top two area teams.
I don't believe that Caruthersville would get "steemrolled" at all.
I don't either GSP
just whot is a screemroll Buckos?????? somehing like a scary haloween? who does nmcc play toniht BockMajor?
Whot Whot pippy longstocking that wood b ol donifan dey pay toniht bucko barekat!
Bearcat... Hemingway has a question for you!!!
just look whoes a smarty pants Bockmajor! i was just axing a queston and you have to get smarty. i should use my aligator tacklin tecuaniques on you Bucko. whot are you talkin about hopsididagin?
I agree with what you're saying Cheesehead. That's what some people don't understand---when people are saying this Sikeston team is not as good as last year's. I mean, geez folks, that team was one of the all-time great ones. Period 30 and freaking 0. Special. Dang near unparalleled at the Class 4 and 5 level. Charleston's 1990 title is the only one that can be put in the category of it since they were the 2nd to largest class. I'm not knocking other state titles, but to defeat Class 4 and 5 teams every single night and steamroll through every one of them to the tune of 30+ on average the entire season. Playoff wins of 45, 38, 21, and 19. Nuff said. You just don't hardly ever see that in the higher classes. It's not degrading this year's team. It is paying homage to last year's Hall of Fame, once in a lifetime, team.
Agree semo because the same players this year have rings too even the waterboy.Thanks for being a part of the HALL OF FAME TEAM.
Hey I knew what giant hook was talking about and I'm a woman!!!Just saying that because of the yawn comment
I just want to thank u guys for being so entertaining. Some are down right funny. I read this all the time then try to guess who some of you are. Of course Dustin isn't that hard to figure out but the rest keep me guessing. Ok I'm done just wanted to let u know how much I enjoy all of you.
Stl38 why does my armpits have to be sweaty? Lol... Well no I'm nor sweaty or getting my Bp up... I just know we didn't have a team that won state with "10/12" losses, I simply said it wasn't accurate & I'm getting worked up? I dont need to check I know we didn't... You on the other hand, has changed from 10/12 to maybe 8... Lol that's why it's hilarious to me! Hey guys Sikeston's undefeated season is quite an accomplishment,30-0!! SCC, Portageville, Charleston & Sikeston I believe are the only teams in Semo are to accomplish those feats, in fact I think Portageville or SCC has done it twice if I'm not mistaking... That team from Charleston in 1990 had some really tough games in terms of a challenging schedule... That year Charleston football team made to semi final in football & lost to Lutheran North on sat & the next sat they playing in basketball game vs Seagoville TX team out of Dallas in Charleston, that team was coached by Current Dallas Lincoln coach that played SCC in riverbend 2yrs ago. That 1990 team led by current Poplar Bluff coach Lamont Frazier, went on to face some stiff competition that year in a home game vs Hopkinsville Acadamy from Kentucky that featured 2 St. Johns signees and pulled that out late... Next up was the Sikeston Inv that saw Jays match up with Sikeston in first round winning by 50 & next day going up to Stl to take part in the KMOX shootout at the Keil Center vs Westin Ilinois team that featured Former SIU standout, Current Missouri State coach Paul Lusk Jr in a battle that Bluejays survived...Charleston then turn their attention to the remainder of the SIT & took care of NMCC, in the finals to claim their 3rd straight SIT...next up X-Mas tournament, blew out the first three rounds only to be challenged yet again by the 1A giant killers in SCC, Charleston walked away with the Championship with a one point win over the Braves... Frazier vs Timmons, wow it was a battle!!!! Charleston went on to repeat as state champs by winning state by defeating a BIG Soldan team that feature 6'10" & 6'8""post, by 24, the game was never in doubt!!! That's why I think, just my opinion that Charleston 1990 team may have been the best undefeated team in this area... Just my opinion, so let's not hate, let's jus compare... Let me hear what u have to say!!
Need a new forum titled " remember when "
Or one that titled "THE FACTORY: **** THEY'RE GOOD" is that gloating... Aww I didn't know!! Lol
There you go that's the spirit now make one and we can all brag about Charleston but I really can't say much but I can read!!
What happened to that Sikeston in the top 50 thread?
PETE,
It wasn't interesting to anyone from Sikeston...
We don't think we are Top 50 And I also Don't feel that the person who put that thread on here is a Sikeston fan. I think they are just trying to do like most on this site do... Stir the pot!
Pete... You have no clue if the person who started that thread was a Sikeston fan... I haven't seen that name on here before that thread!
Sounds like someone starting some crap!
Jan 6th... Black Manboob might not talk on the message boards again after that game!
Just don't think Charleston plays as well as they did last Friday!
No, Black Mamba will continue to talk because Charleston won some state titles before current players were born. Very relevant.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that Black Mamba/JayJayBlue/Bluejay Fanatic (whichever name he is going by these days) is a proud fan of his school and its accomplishments. We need passionate fans. It makes the semoball world more interesting.
Sikeston JV defeats Notre Dame JV 54-52.
Sikeston Varsity rocking the globetrotter warm up pants! Go RED DOGS!
Straight swagging... Howz that swag? I'm going to talk before, during & after Jan 6... I believe in my 'Jays' so I'm goin to keep 'reppin' them... Like it ir not... On the other hand, that number 3 ranking, out the door losing to an unranked opponent can drip u guys out of the top 10... Ouch!
Hoops I'm talking because we didn't have to wait 120years to win one so that people like you can brag now... Lol... The kids may not have been living when we won most of those titles, I'm sure they know just like you know... We didn't mind you guys listening to us take state 10times... We've win before you won, will win one again before you guys do it again... Yea I said, semo no hoops...
Just remembered that in 1975 Lilbourn went undefeated with a record of 31-0. Claude McFerren played on that team, coach Mac's brother.
Who couldn't win 10 titles in Class 3?
Kidding, Mamba! Kidding!
Ummm, I was joking. Just trying to get Black Mamba going a little bit. Lighten up Slick.
He even said "kidding" twice in the post......
