I’ve heard it said if any man lives long enough, he’ll get it eventually.

Agreed

No prayers?

Ranked choice voting could threaten the two party system. I think it’s great and I wish Texas would adopt it. This “binary” choice system is bs. It’s not even binary. We’re just voting for one or the other side of the same coin.

In the mean time. Prayers up to the kiddo at 3rd. Classless though… I really doubt the kid meant it.

I really doubt the runner was trying to really hurt him. He was full speed 3rd baseman probably came out of his right side making it hard to see him running for ball. Just a freak play.

Agree, the main takeaway here is more proof that Comey is a partisan hack that was unfit for the job.

Anyone care to PM me and tell me what happened? thanks

If I'm being honest, I think it's trivial at best. To me, the term to "86" something or someone means simply to get rid of or replace it - not necessarily through death or violence. I can't stand Comey, but this is a ridiculous non-event that shouldn't be wasting valuable time or resources. Move on, nothing to see here...

I hope it's treatable, and he makes a full recovery. For his sake and his family's sake.

Excuse my ignorance, but were there any parts of the beach that weren't a part of the Jeep weekend and weren't shut down? I'll hold my narrative 'til I know the answer... @thetragichippy @bullets13 @baddog

I don't see how when many of the businesses close now, and others are damaged. Not to mention the cost of cleaning and fixing the beach every year. I'm not really sure what the legality is, but sometimes an "over the top" response is necessary to fix an over the top problem. I'm confident from seeing local residents on facebook that very few people in Galveston county are particularly upset by the drop in traffic OR the temporary closures/delays.

Sorry that he had to go to ER, however in the video you can’t tell if it was on purpose It was called interference and that ended the game. It appears that the Nederland trainer and head coach were the 1st ones to help the player after the incident Appears that this was just an unfortunate accident. The runner was trying to get to 3rd and the 3rd baseman was trying to get to the pop up, just an unfortunate accident

wasted two excellent starts that series. Could've easily swept, but certainly should have taken at least 3 out 4.

Was he ejected? it looked like he avoided the SS who was making the play and ran into the 3rd baseman. I could be completely wrong. Just going by this short clip.

Dropping like flies……lmao [Hidden Content]

Reminiscing old times….I thought this would bring back some memories. I never touched the car cigarette lighter though. Lol

yea, I think they over did it to make a point, but may have cost them more than they realize

Really, arrested for traffic violations? I didn’t know that. I just go by the fact that, on a beautiful May weekend, the vendors would rather close their businesses than make tons of money. Like I said, I’m sure there are those who go to the beach to have a good time and not commit felonies, but Crystal Beach probably wishes Jeep weekend would go away. I have no problem with Jeep owners or Jeep weekend, but the past events speak for themselves.

It was not targeting the jeepers IMO - it was targeting everyone......and I looked at the arrest mugshots on Galveston County page....NONE of those folks looked like Jeepers,,,,,and they were arresting folks for no seat belts, brake lights out and cracked windshields.....among other more serious crimes

company adjacent.

I see your point but the Jeep drivers brought this all on themselves. I’m sure there are lots of good people involved in Jeep weekend, but the bad ones have put a black eye on the event.

There were more than 400 officers used this weekend on the Bolivar Peninsula, not counting EMS, the paddy wagons, etc..... They had check points at both ends of the peninsula, checking every vehicle for any traffic violation. I imagine that is costing Galveston County a pretty good chunk of change. I doubt the revenue from the tickets will put a dent in it. They sure sent a message. I'm a law abiding citizen for the most part. I always have a valid ID, well maintained vehicle and proper insurance. I do speed occasionally, understanding the risk and knowing I may receive a ticket. However, when I go to the beach for relaxation, I don't want to wait in line 1 to 2 hours to basically prove I'm doing nothing wrong....or get a ticket because I didn't realize a license plate light was out...... There were 275 arrest........52 were felony charges, the rest misdemeanors..... I would like to see the number of "warnings" they gave....my guess, not many if any at all. I totally back the blue, always have, but I feel this was an over the top response to trying to fix a problem. [Hidden Content]
