Everything about dems is fake, especially their outrage. These two take the cake. Question: Why doesn’t Letitia James prosecute Adam Shiff for mortgage fraud….or better yet, prosecute herself? (Acquiring) minds want to know. Dem catch phrase…..NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!!!!

I understand that you want to have faith in coaches, and he has turned it around in 3 years. But after coaching almost four decades I hate it when coaching ego or "the Franklin way" causes teams to lose. We as coaches can always blame the kids, but often it is the coaches stubborness or lack of innovation or just plain common sense that costs us, and by us i mean the team, coaches, school,administration and town. Right now Jackson Dart who may be a good quarterback from Ole Miss and now at the Giants, cannot take a snap from under center!!!!! Because EVERYONE offensively believes in the air offense, shotgun snap--whatever you call it. There is just things that go on, like in government, that coaches pull the wool over the publics eyes. Coaches, especially head coaches are the MOST important part of any team sport. And many are great leaders and build character in our young men. But some aren't and it , like society is getting worse every year. I would tell my defense at Crosby after each game, win or lose, to not point the finger but to look in the mirror and ask what I could have done different. I worked for Jerry Stewart, who had great success at Dayton, at Clear Lake in his first coaching job and that was the type of head coach he was. We turned a state champion basketball team Clear Lake (the year after La Porte won State) into a football power. Anyway,since i am a coach, retired, I know how much control coaches have. I also understand the pressure we are constantly under. I am going to start an online blog on Substack called "Fire the Coach cause we deserve better!" It will come out twice a week. Please follow and tell me what you think. I will start it on August 25 or26. [email protected] Isn't it great that football season is almost here!

Mariners sweep Rays 6-3

My bad, I meant to say Correa got a dinger but got ahead of my self. Anyway nice convincing win.

Yes. Could be risky. But, I think not in this case. We’ve had a stronger than normal 2nd quarter, and 3rd quarters are typically solid. I don’t think 50 basis points is too drastic with the adjusted employment numbers where they’re sitting. While it wouldn’t help the consumer right away, it would help business cash flow at a time when it’s needed. The other big item is the help it would provide the housing market. If the housing market could get back on its feet even a little, the economy would be in solid shape. Getting that benchmark down would help a lot. Still need more supply. But, it would be a big help for people financing, builders building, and even those remodeling to sell. Definitely wouldn’t do what Trump’s suggesting with a 300 basis point whammy. That’s just nuts. I think 50 is about right for a slow walk to see where it goes. Like I say, if we can get the benchmark to within 100 of inflation—and have stability—I could give a little on the Fed’s target. 2%? 2.5%? 2.75%?…all pretty relative and arbitrary. We’re in a new situation with the tariff money. Needs to go to pay down debt. We don’t need refunds. I know folks would like refunds. But, the long term issue is debt. There are enough tax breaks in the BBB that most will notice a pretty decent increase in take home pay. (Hopefully, they’re smart enough to put some away in a rainy day fund.)

Houston is starting Cristian Javier tomorrow at home vs. Boston. Will be his first start since him having Tommy John surgery. Houston's Cristian Javier hasn't pitched in the majors since May 21 of 2024 but will be activated and start against Boston at Daikin Park. Astros will start Arrighetti on Tuesday and Brown on Wednesday.

Infusing cash before having an idea of how tariffs affect demand could be risky. Lowering rates to help finance an import tax is injecting money that will have zero productivity value. Again, don’t see how taxing U S citizens to further international political agendas will end well. India because we want to two them where to buy oil, Brazil because Trump doesn’t like the way they’re treating Bolsonaro. That is not an economic plan.

Sousa did not give up a homerun. He did give up 2 hits and a BB in his 1/3 of an inning. Yankees scored on a Sac fly.

Makes 1 wonder when the alternative is so bad supposedly why not cast a vote for the clown.... 🤔😎

I’ve said this before, but Altuve should round the bases on a HR like Crash Davis in “Bull Durham”. Let’s hope those bats stay healthy for the home crowd. They deserve a series win.

I may have already posted this elsewhere, but it deserves another look, and it fits here perfectly. Dems lie to the people they represent.

Very nice 3 hit 7-1 series win. Alexander had 1 hitter thru 6. Sousa comes in gives up dinger. King strikes out the side in the ninth. Almost evero contributed. We reall needed that. Altuve 1st inning dinger again.

Democrat congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is projecting a false persona. She acts ghetto and talks with that finger point, yet she is from a very upstanding neighborhood in St. Louis, Missouri.

Kingwood Park leads the way with six Thursday night games. In fact, KP plays all six of their Thursday games in the last 7 weeks of the season. Do not play Thursday in Week 7. Hardin plays five while Porter, Anahuac and Joaquin play four Thursday games. According to the current schedules we have, these following teams do not have Thursday games: Atascocita Channelview Beaumont United Galveston Ball Lufkin PA Memorial Dayton Huntsville Nederland PN-G Bridge City Huffman Livingston Lumberton LC-M Vidor Hamshire-Fannett Jasper Shepherd Silsbee WO-S Crockett Diboll Fairfield Westwood Teague Kountze New Waverly Trinity Colmesneil Deweyville Sabine Pass West Sabine Apple Springs Chester Burkeville High Island 40 of our coverage area teams has at least one Thursday game scheduled for this season.

I have compiled a composite Thursday schedule for our coverage area teams based on the schedules we have. I will post the Saturday schedule tomorrow. Here is the Thursday schedule (57 total games): Week 1 Aug. 28 Clear Creek at Kingwood CE King at Spring Westfield Beaumont West Brook at Aldine Eisenhower Galena Park at Porter Evadale at Huntington Warren at Hardin Waskom at Garrison San Augustine at Beckville Week 2 Sept. 4 Houston Lamar at Summer Creek Barbers Hill at Manvel Porter at Pasadena Memorial St. Thomas at Lake Creek Huntington at Frankston Woodville at Anahuac Waskom at Hemphill Beckville at Joaquin Week 3 Sept. 11 Clear Brook at Goose Creek Memorial Stratford at Kingwood Summer Creek at Spring Fort Bend Kempner at Houston Wisdom Joaquin at Tenaha San Augustine at Price-Carlisle Shelbyville at Waskom Alto at Hull-Daisetta Week 4 Sept. 18 Tarkington at Hardin Orangefield at St. Louis Catholic (Westlake) Grand Saline at Joaquin New Waverly JV at West Hardin Week 5 Sept. 25 North Shore at Humble Kingwood Park at Fort Bend Kempner Wolfe City at Timpson Week 6 Oct. 2 La Porte at Kingwood Park Barbers Hill at Baytown Sterling Splendora at West Fork Hardin at East Chambers Week 7 Oct. 9 CE King at Summer Creek Porter at Pasadena Week 8 Oct. 16 Angleton at Kingwood Park Crosby at Fort Bend Kempner Splendora at Montgomery Anahuac at Buna Timpson at Shelbyville Week 9 Oct. 23 CE King at Kingwood Kingwood Park at Pasadena Montgomery at West Fork Hardin at Anahuac Week 10 Oct. 30 Friendswood at Kingwood Park Splendora at Lake Creek Warren at Newton Hemphill at San Augustine Week 11 Nov. 6 Porter at Kingwood Park Hardin-Jefferson at Liberty Anahuac at Coldspring Buna at Orangefield Hardin at Kirbyville Anderson-Shiro at Warren Garrison at Joaquin

Yes it’s early and time will tell. That’s my initial observation , because I don’t think Prescott will make the entire season without getting injured and even though they are playing players trying to make the team, the defense was not good

Who’s Yankee Daddy? Lol

VYPE's choices lean toward the SETX area as it should be I guess, nothing new for Lufkin, we deal with it all the time. It sort of adds incentive to the plate. Think the Panthers were picked 4th last year too and to be fair the Panthers have some substantial holes to fill this season. Anyway, you have to play the games and we will see in November how things turnout. Still think PAM has the edge to win the district with a talented senior laden team. They have been talking about that group for two years now. VYPE likes the McNeese commit QB transfer from 3A Anahuac to Barbers Hill, except I noticed Anahuac did not make the playoffs the past two seasons. BH has plenty of talent though from last year to make a lot of noise in district. Abseck left a good group there. West Brook is the team I think will surprise the most, watchout for those guys. Ball might be rated too high, Woodbury is good but the supporting cast might not be enough, even with a new coach. Lufkin has half the team back that went 10-2, and many new players have come out that previously did not want to play for the previous coaching group, plus 3 or 4 transfers in the offseason from Grand Oaks, Abilene and Jasper. It all starts in 19 days, so let's see where this ends up in November. There's going to be some very good district games.

Even if they won, that would be his post.

That was the only call I questioned in the Regional Finals last year. The toss vs. a sneak. May have cost them a trip to the State Semis. The staff played to win all year (vs. not to lose), so I appreciated that aspect. But, when on the 1 yard line, trying to ice the game, a long toss type play seemed a little strange with the speed of Angleton's D. But, the staff knows more about the matchups they were facing than I do. They made the call they thought would work best. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. I still have great faith in the LP staff. They've done an outstanding job bringing the program back in a very short time, and I think it's only going to continue to improve. Coach Berneathy and staff have gone 5-5, 8-3, and 10-4. Improve by 2 more games again this year & they're at the Promised Land. I'm ready for this season, and this rivalry to start. Seems like it's been a long off-season. Probably the anticipation of the new stadium & some true home games again.

One thing I was thinking on last night was an EO. Most of this money is actually funded via data from the census directly from a specific government department. It would only be a temporary fix if an EO was used to modify funding, but I don't see why one couldn't be used. Seems a liberal San Fran judge blocked this Administration from stopping some funding earlier this year. But, that was because it had already been allocated. (That, and just being anti-Administration policies of course.) If an EO was used--early enough--that said funding would only be tabulated based on 'permanent, legal residents calculated by such & such numbers', I'm not sure it wouldn't work. It would be challenged. But, I know of no legal reason it may not be upheld if appealed. May need to research more...

Seattle has won 6 in a row. Astro lead down to 1/2 a game.

Precisely. It's a freaking glorified scrimmage. Anyone predicting season results off the first preseason game is delirious.
