Clementine your comment "I don't give two chits " shows your character decline and taking sides violated the term Moderator. When I say "we " I mean I am a fan and supporter of Sinton Baseball. Robert Thomas on the team is the son of our family lawyer and friend. I have been to many of his sisters volleyball games over the years and watched them grow up from toddlers. 2 are at Texas A&M and the other at Blinn. There mother recently purchased Aunt Aggie D'S store and business in Sinton and I shop there. I visit with the Sinton players at Subway on occasion. My son that I inherited by marriage was coach of the present AD/HC when he was in Junior High in Sinton. I watched the game and saw the players go sanitize their hands in the pool before shaking hands with the Calallen players. I recently got a thank you note from Sinton Pitcher Blake Mitchell for bidding on his animal in the San Pat A&H show this year. I got thank you notes from other Sinton athletes that played football and basketball. One of the Sinton basketball players is the son of a father that my wife does accounting for. That father is a GP grad. I have a neighbor that is a GP grad and her daughter is a Sinton Volleyball coach. I gave a congrat card and 50 dollars to a Sinton Football player in our Church and that was not the only Senior grad in our church I gave a card and gift to. They also liked my Banana Pudding I made for the Senior Dinner at the church. week ago I made a trip to Houston to watch my great grandson play in the 10U baseball tournament and I am also "WE" at Katy where he and his 2 brothers go to school. Last Saturday I went to Galveston to watch my great grand daughter play softball on the 14U all-star game and she is on the Gregory Portland Allstar team and I am "WE" in Portland. They play in a tournament in Portland June 21st. I am also paying for her batting coach. Andy Burch the father of Sinton softball pitcher Jamie Burch has been helping her with her batting. Jamie Burch is a sophomore and will get a scoly when she graduates. My great grand daughter played Flag Football and was undefeated. Her basketball team was undefeated and the won first place. My great grand daughter kneeled down for the shorter lady to put her medallion on her neck. A few weeks later she got a medallion for second place in softball and a medallion for being selected to the all-star team. She may add track and volleyball in the future grades in Portland. I went to my Great grand sons graduation where he played football and track at Rouse and I am "WE" at Rouse. I have a great grand son entering HS at Hamilton and he plays football, Basketball and track and I am "We" at Hamilton. I have a grand son and great grand son racing Gokart and Super modified race car and travel in a self contained truck and trailer. My great grand son wins more often than dad. They made a tour in Oklahoma and Dallas and Waco. I have 2 great grand sons coming up the ladder in Portland. Clem you might just try staying in your Lane.

Who is we? Are you now part of the Sinton baseball team? You have grandkid there or a kid teaching or something that we didn't know about? And for the record, I don't give two chits about all the media attention a coach gets for becoming the winningest ever in the state. It is well deserved IMO. I do also believe that the Sinton kids should have paid respects first before jumping the fence and into a pool. I don't care how bid the rivalry is on the field, when the game is over you shake hands first and then go do your thing. Dude just shut up already with your calallen brown nosing bs. You look stupid. See my response to FBfan. Stop acting like you know wtf goes on down here. NO, I won't shut up. You show your true colors here 100%. Sorry, but you can go jump in a damn pool as soon as you shake your opponent's hands win or lose. You are a 40+ year old man that acts like a small child behind a computer screen and nothing more. Go play on your 4 social media pages drama queen.

Clementine your comment "I don't give two chits " shows your character decline and taking sides violated the term Moderator. You know why I erased all the rest of your rhetoric? Because I don't have time to read your nonsense. The bottom line is there is absolutely NO excuse not to shake your opponents hands after any ball game win or lose and I don't care how many excuses you or anyone else on here gives for it because none ARE VALID. Win with class & lose with class. I in no way think the Sinton kids are bad apples. They simply made a mistake and I bet their coach fixes it and that doesn't happen again.

They should have gone to shake hands. It's the traditional class thing to do. The fans and players have a history the last 2 years and not just in baseball but a fight that broke out in 7 on 7 recently. Sinton celebrated likely to rub it in and I get it. Also they're kids that had just punched their ticket to state. This isn't the MLB. In that case it's a failing on the coaches and parent's part for not providing examples and controlling situations.

Somehow I think if the shoe was on the other foot and Calallen had done this, your rediscovered Calallen hate would not be to kind.

Sinton gave the Baseball team sendoff this morning with fans lining the street. Sinton going to state and not Calallen is the problem. What are you talking about? Many of were surprised we made it as far as we did with a physically small team, no real power hitters and one showcase Pitcher. To their credit, two other kids stepped up their games on the mound in the later part of the season and the playoffs, but with Sinton’s bats they probably would’ve been beat handily had we played a best of 3. No one in Calallen thought we were favorites and knew the one gamer was the roll of the dice. No one is claiming we were cheated out of a shot at the championship. Sinton won the runs, hits categories and capitalized on errors which is baseball. Calallen went to the middle of the field to shake hands. Sinton chose the unsportsmanlike route which seems to be Ok with you and another poster on here. If Calallen did this, you and the other poster on here would be having hissy fits Gordon Wood would not have approved of this….

If Calallen did this, you and the other poster on here would be having hissy fits Gordon Wood would not have approved of this…. Agreed. I was impressed this team made it to the region finals. They really battled and had some grit considering the depth wasn't there in pitching. Sprencel really stepped up impressively in the Robstown and Boerne series. We knew we were the big underdog in that game with Sinton and never claimed anything otherwise. But it was fun watching them squirm for a bit in the bot of the 7th with bases loaded and no outs. But Sinton made less mistakes and got the timely hits. It's funny how a few people believe that our thinking a simple act of good sportsmanship following a game is just about our bitterness for losing. I would hope parents, coaches and fans would expect more.

Coach Gordon Wood would tell his players to get out there and have fun. He had a player that seemed to be always be unhappy. He called him into his office and told the kid if your not having fun in High school , your not going to have fun the rest of your life. I will ask him when I see him next. I'm not sure if I can get back in touch with you.

Calallen posters hate it when you yank their chain. On a sad note, I will be going to the funeral Thursday for Portland resident Leonard Samuel Stroman who grew up here in Sinton. He had a tough ending with both legs amputated, one at a time. He was too young to leave 59 years, 4 months, 26 days. Wife Judy Lynne and 3 daughters Tiffany Lynne , Shannon Kay , Emily Carroll , May he R.I.P.

I'm not sure if I can get back in touch with you. You don’t get intentionally. The kids could have had their fun after doing the sportsmanship like thing. They could have stayed in that pool all night if they wanted too I know a couple of Sinton diehards who thought it was not cool either. Probably because they know sports well and seen these type of displays boomerang on teams before. Either soon there after the display or somewhere down the road when the two teams meet again. And the two will meet again on some field of competition…. Too bad it won’t be next football season…. They had their chance.

You and another poster on here don’t like dissenting opinions and start digging holes especially when those dissenting opinions are backed up with overwhelming facts.
