haaaa must be joking.

there ihopper goes just dissing people. I'm not saying WC is gonna win but they do have a shot.
We can't win at home. We can't win on the road. I just can't figure out where else to play!

If they don't make it to state, then they aren't the region champ. You can't be the champ of the region, and not make state haha.

I know you are going to say this is in the past, but i think a team with this kind of track record you have to call them a favorite.

no, you are right, they are the champs until someone takes it from them.  I just don't personally think that they are a good enough team that people aren't going to see mpcg on the schedule and be like oh great we have to play them like in years past.  they will be tough to beat in regionals no doubt but there isn't this team doesn't seem to have a swagger about them like they usually do.  I know that coach nelson will have them ready and the intimidation factor that its MPCG will probably get them to the semifinal night of regionals where it will be a very intriguing matchup.
I think MPCG will have troubles even getting to the semifinal night of regions.  District 4 is a force to be reckoned with.  They are big and fast.  Each team has a 6'4'' or taller player on their team.  6'4'' is an understatement too because Park River has 2 of them but then Midway-Minto has 6'6'' and Grafton two 6'7'' and north border with 6'10'' and two players at 6'4''.  It will be hard for district 3 teams to match up with District 4 in the region tournament.  But I think it's going to be very exciting.  Put all 8 teams that make it in a hat and draw a name and that's as good as picking a team to make it.

I have seen WC, 4W and L/M. In fact I was at the W/C vs 4W game. W/C had the lead most of the game @ 4W. 4W hit a 3 at the buzzer in the 3rd 1/4 that was, I would guess you would say was a bit of luck, a bank from the wing--pretty sure not called. That gave 4W some momentum which they took into the 4th 1/4.  W/C missed several ft's in the 4th that also didn't help their chances. They have a very nice ballclub that could beat anybody on any given nite. I would not want to count them out. That region is gonna be a competive 1. 4W is probably the favorite after beating L/M but I would never count them out, especially after losing in DL last sat. Also W/C is very capable of winning any game they play. Let's see what happens!!

MPCG can have any swagger they wish. It is pretty hard to not look at their past. Also, NB has had a pretty decent past themselves. I know they have lost the last 2 region championship games but you have to realize how hard it is to get there. Those 2 teams have alot of tourney experience and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they met in the region championship for the 3rd year in a row. If they do it will be a great one!!

Any of the top teams from district 1 Oak Grove, Northern Cass, Central Cass and Kindred all have a chance of making it past Hankinson or lisbon in regions.

i really hope central cass doesnt come out of that region.  they lost to carrington.  carrington isnt a bad team but they arent near to the top of the region.  i have heard alot of good about kindred and oak grove tho.

well of course your gonna miss layups against FW's stiffling defense. They were probably wetting the bed the night before they were so nervous. But that happens sometimes.

im way less sick of people talking up 4 winds than i am about hearing about how good region 7 teams are.  at least 4 winds is playing up to what their fans say.  u all go bragging up region 7 and hazen loses by 15 and by 30 and dickinson trinity loses by 30 as well to non region opponents

Of course we are gonna talk about region 7 when they have 3 teams in the top 10 and 1 team recieving votes. How many other regions have that?

They don't venture too far out of their region to play some competition I'm guessing.

i understand teams have bad games and will lose every once in awhile but losing by 30 to anyone shouldnt happen.  great teams play with more consistency than that.

They also played a great team in Watford City, who I think will win state, between them and lisbon.

I guess we'll just wait and see who takes the region 7-region 4 matchup in bismarck. I'll stop the argument after that.

fair enough but i dont think lisbon is gonna have a chance.  i think watford city could be the best team in the state but i dont think they will beat parshall.  obviously watford city is a very good team beating them teams by that much becuz they are very high quality teams.  i dont think u can credit watford city for the whole 30 point difference tho.  i think hazen and trinity must have played terrible and i think the best teams find a way to get it done most nights, even if they dont win they can make it a closer contest than that.
