GOOD Game MC keep it up

Betsy Layne is a very good team. They have talented players in every position. They are athletic, play good defense, and can potentially explode offensively. This is an early season game. They didn't play as well as they are going to play.
Neither did Magoffin. I'm very excited about this team. But this is an early season game. I hope they don't get cocky. I hope they STAY HUNGRY. I hope they enjoy the payback they will deliver this year for the beatings they've taken the last 3 or 4 years. They can do it. But they have to STAY HUNGRY. They have plenty of room to improve.
This game was closer than many people realize. And I thought both teams were well coached. Betsy Layne started fouling early because there were so few fouls committed, they had to get to the point where they could put the Hornets on the line. And except for the intentional foul and technical foul, the strategy might have worked. Magoffin had missed a couple of free throws which allowed Betsy Layne to get back into the game.
So, Betsy Layne isn't overrated just because they lost their opener at home to the Hornets. And the Hornets are not suddenly a great team because they beat Betsy Layne at home in the season opener.
But for all of you who think that the Hornet don't have a chance to win the 57th District, you may find yourself eating your words at the end of the season. The Hornets have a long way to go. And the 57th District is very strong this year. But Magoffin County really does have the players and the confidence (if they don't get cocky) to beat any team in the District or Region.
It might not happen. But it could. And I don't consider it a long shot.

Also I'd like to say great post to you betcha he hit the numbers on that one, and there are some really mature people on this forum, and then there are some really immature people that seriously needa take a look at life and grow up! i mean its high school basketball, just because you were proved wrong you have to go and get defensive and make bogus excuses.
