I didn't notice it was a one gamer when I replied earlier; I still pick the Fred Billies.Quote:

By no means do I think the Texans are an inferior team. Neither should the Billies. I've always said it should be the best of 3. No excuses.
I didn’t say you did and didn’t mean for anything I said to imply you did, sorry if it came across that way. When I said you’re right, I was referring to “you never know what can happen”Quote:

That sucks.
Fredericksburg / Wimberley and Sweeny / Boerne are both 1 game series. 4 of the best teams in the state hinging their seasons on one game. The UIL should eliminate this option in my opinion.
Maddie-ville won the flip against us and chose a one gamer too..........you are not alone.Quote:

This is all one-and-done format. So, by and large, a team has to go on a 7-0 stretch to win a state title. That's a brutally hard thing to do, and it's not always the actual best team that makes it out alive. I've seen several teams that would've easily won a state title with a best-of-three format fall short because of an off day.
The fact that Texas even has a best-of-three option is big-time. But, I'm with you guys, I think it needs to be the only way, not just an option. I'd also love to see them carry it all the way through, even in the state championship.
You are speaking my language Amigo!!!!Quote:

Totally agreeQuote:

Congrats to the Rockets on the win. Sounds like it was a great game. Would be nice if state tourney was double elimination just like an NCAA regional. Sadly, this will NEVER happen. Reasons being: Would need 6 fields and all the staff/workers to go with it. UIL would never have such a thing. They want to put as little work/effort into baseball state championship as possible. This is their last event of the year before they can all go on vacation. They are all about just getting the thing over with. My opinion, have places bid out to host each classification and let local folks or the THSBCA oversee the whole operation much like the current playoff series are done. Uil will never do this though, because they have to have their hand in everything.
We are good. Quality people posting here. Just so proud of this team. Not sure who won the flip but it is what it is. Probably the Texans. Still does not change my mind about a best of 3. Congrats to the Rockets on the win.Quote:
