I agree, but the best thing about basketball is all you gotta do is put the ball back in play and the complaining stops.

Question for you Houston guys, how often do you wear the side panel stripes and/or grey shirts as opposed to the regular stripes? We've been told all three are approved as long as you match your partners.

Sticky question. Grey was not used for High School, but I've heard this year it may be optional. Good question for the meeting on the 26th.

Barts good, he does mostly FBISD and KISD. As for HISD schools, I would avoid some of those if you can.

If its subvarsity don't really think it would matter as long as you match. Like Frank said its a good question for the upcoming meetings.

Does anyone know if the vendors will be at the upcoming meeting?

Any particular reason? They are close to work for me.

I'll see what they say about the shirts at the meeting. I went with the basic stripes for now
