Hey Doc.  Are you going to have time to put together the spreadsheet of games by chapter again this year?

I'm working on it but info seems harder and harder to get from some chapters.  I don't know why some chapters are so secretive about what games they are working.  Members of those chapters should demand to be able to see what games and what officials are working playoff games.

It is the members of the individual chapters who need to know what is going on in their chapter. However, it is none of your damn business what is going on outside of your own chapter.

Is that the samer thing you will tell TT when he tells you HE will be deciding who from your Chapter does playoff games?

Mr. Timmons won't be hearing a word out of me. He is the boss and I am thrilled to have him in charge. Now Dockery on the other hand is not in charge of anything, he needs to mind his own business!

And you, sir, need to stop stirring the pot. Because every time you post, it demeans us all.

Hey my friend, I've never disparaged you in any way, so let's not make anything personal.  If we've already made it personal when you were using another moniker, you deserved it.

All of this information is public information since the officials are working for public schools.  There's no reason to keep any secrets.  I've got almost all information now.  I have my sources and I appreciate all of those who help with this project.  I've been doing it since 2002 or 2003 now.

Thanks Doc. I know there are a lot of us who appreciate you taking the time to do this each year. It is interesting to see what Chapters the Coach's have picked (from outside of their area).

Remember, the coaches do not always pick the chapter. Some of these could be UIL assignee games

To keep us  out of staters up to date, is it business as usual, Taso chapters assign playoff crews?  Any requirement to be UIL registered?   Thanks
Title: Re: Texas Playoffs
Post by: TXMike on November 09, 2010, 07:34:44 PM
Status quo for now. Registration required after dec 1. Hearing tomorrow in fed court though which could push registration back farther

I've got one of those 4 win teams (playing a 10-0 team).   But, I expect it to actually be a good game.   All 6 losses are to playoff teams and 4 of the losses are by 7 points or less and they came out of a really strong district.   You never know.

That's why they play the game. Have a good one.

Likewise, Sir! And keep those warm woolies packed! It's going to get a little worse out there weatherwise before it starts getting better. And do be careful on those highways, guys!   z^
