To clarify, you are saying that in order to offset enrollment deficit you must have either “million dollar addresses” or “a lot of black kids”? Correct?

This is another typical government approach. Biden mandated the EV push with no plan to support it. DOGE cut departments and programs with no plan to address the voided needs. Congress plans to eliminate subsidies without a plan for relief to those most in need. There're way too many examples to list. They care so much they will revisit this in January. Follow the money.

And yet you just missed the whole point of me saying Crosby would be more competitive too once we had 2,800+ kids like Kingwood? I’ve stated the same thing every time and I’ve told you why those schools with smaller enrollments can be highly competitive. You have million dollar addresses like some of the Vandy kids or a large number of heavily recruited black kids like Longview does. If your school is 72% Hispanic like North Shore you better have a big enrollment to mitigate that or have a total football playing enrollment of about 1,500. The last decade of course we’ve had 20 6A state champions; Duncanville, North Shore, Westlake, Katy, Longview, Allen, Cy-Fair and Lake Travis. None of them go against what I’ve stated and none of the 4 state finalist playing in 6A do this year either. This fact that you had to throw Willis in there who 1) has 2,900 kids and growing fast and 2) was 12-20 their first three years in 6A until their enrollment grew and they could close the gap on schools like The Woodlands shows you can’t “give me a list” of elite 6A programs that go against what I said. You may not like what I’m saying but as far as the THSF 6A landscape goes the numbers are the numbers.

I’m making an assumption here, but I imagine your ESI insurance (employer sponsored) went up because of the ACA mandate of minimum coverage for a company with more than 50 employees. The minimum coverage had to be equivalent to what the government stipulated in ACA as required minimum coverage. That may have been more than what y’all were being offered through your employer. Of course, much of the requirements (birth control, etc.) were things the government shouldn’t have been stipulating IMHO. They added costs for us all, but almost pure profit for the insurers.

Nope. I think everyone’s in agreement that healthcare costs are out of control. Mine went up as well. I was still working. Now, I pay an exorbitant amount with no other options. The only thing I ever agreed with about ACA was preexisting coverage. That could have been done another way. Didn’t need the monstrosity we have now.

It would definitely represent me, why wouldn’t me and millions like me count?

Shrinkage and private/charter schools

All I know is this, when Obamacare kicked in the company insurance representative informed us that our insurance was going up 30%, the company covered some of it but my premiums went up a lot, all due to the ACA. My insurance went up to cover others due to government interference, as did many folks, anything right about that?

In other news, 20 people will be killed in Chicago this weekend and no one will know their names. While I agree somewhat that Trump should not have said this, it would be refreshing if everyone else showed some respect for the office. It could tone things down a tad.

They are trying to - Democrats are the ones that put us in the mess, remember not one republican vote on this life changing bill. It was complicated and insurance cost have risen/sky rocketed the last 11 years. It has been painful. Democrats knew it was there problem and ignored it. Republicans are trying to fix it, but it won't be easy and there will be some pain involved. You can't fix something overnight that took 11 years to get to where we are at.

Big question ?/? Who do you think will be the Offensive coordinator this coming year ? Will the scheme revert back to a more spread offensive ? A new coordinator will have some returning talent on offense _ QB ,2 young RBs,both offensive tackles and 2 or 3 wrs.

Obama's lies cost EVERYONE money - you mad at him for lying to you?

The right side, or winning side.

What side of the field will Newton be?

I sure hope Newton pulls it off today. They definitely look the part of a champion

By far the best team there. Center is not good at all. Don't know anything about Trinity Christian or this Australian team. Those Australian teams are usually very good or very bad.

Chapel Hill looks like they might be pretty good.

People that are on Obamacare are paying taxes as well. Many, many independent contractors, doctors, small business owners, etc. are also on Obamacare. So are seniors in the gap that are still paying taxes on their Social Security while trying to hold a part-time job to make ends meet. Obamacare covers more than just the 'poor.' The law made it--basically--the only game in town if your employer doesn't offer healthcare. I think people still forget this fact. Around 8% of the U.S. population is on ACA. Over 20 million people. We're almost all getting screwed by the costs. 91% of Healthcare Is Government Subsidized. [Hidden Content] Who is willing to do away with the employer tax benefit for insurance that allows them to pay you more? It's no different than the Obamacare subsidy. Could be easily argued it's worse. Not sure many realized that--unless they're on private insurance--they're probably receiving a subsidy of some sort for health insurance.

It really is… and Golden Triangle 5A schools are on a Island…

The more I look at it there is not a really good way to do 5A D2. Current districts 10 and 11 should be the new 7 and 8 in Region 2. Then move 7 and 8 to Region 3.

Talent's one thing. How many WOS games have you watched over the past few years? Since HH took over, there has been some questionable game plan changes and play calling that concerned some Mustang faithful. However, it appears HH has found/proven his way. We can call it a learning curve or growing pains. We hope this is the beginning of his Mustang legacy.

Yup! I heard about that on other sites as well. Population shrinkage is 🚮 for certain areas.

Friday schedule 12pm Silsbee vs. Tyler Chapel Hill 4:30pm Trinity Christian vs. Silsbee

I’m trying to find it again it was someone’s prediction they put on X, but if you thought last 2 years was bad it really had us traveling had Nacogdoches in the district…
