I don’t have a dog in the Barbe/Mandeville beef on TD, but you barbe people are so unlikeable. And yea, I realize that Rob guy wasn’t an angel in this thread, but yall really do look down on other teams/schools. I know yall don’t want to hear that and will have some form of rebuttal but it’s true. Schools like yall, WM, Curtis, Catholic, etc, who have all the resources in the world aren’t on the same playing field as everyone else, and for some reason that makes yall act like a bunch of pretentious assholes to other people. It’s absurd

i was nice as could be to him before the series, still havent been mean. I said i thought mandeville would take game 1. i also said if barbe wins this year, is Cechinini''s best coaching job.
but lets stop acting liking WM and Barbe somehow were blessed with some natural inclination to be bigger and better.
barbe didnt even have an outfield fence when their current coach was hired 38 years ago. he built the program and raised the money himself
WM hasnt always been some great program. they won the 99 ship but didnt really become a huge player in baseball consistently year in and year out until like 1996. They, like barbe, have raised money and gotten community buy in through getting involved in the youth scenes in the area.
neither school is like a texas school with independent school district. and they certainly are not like Sulphur and Westlake with huge tax bases that feed into the rec program where the rec can pay for facilities.......they have done it organically.
any team can do that. Look how many other teams Barbe has to contend with to raise money....Sulphur, Sam Houston, St Louis, Westlake, Iowa, Dequincy, South Beua and that is just the programs that made at least the quarters from our little 250k metro area.
and lets not act like monroe area is some big metro area with money flowing all over the place.
if those two schools can do it, what is stopping schools like those from the AP from just buying in and dominating? Lot more money there.
