I hope we have many reps from SETX making runs this year. Good Luck to our SETX family.

I’m hoping they actually have the right guy this time. I was leaning with some of you that it looked more and more like a professional job. Hopefully we know the truth. I am going to post one thing here though in general. Reading this thread is almost as depressing as social media, on both sides. At least no one is celebrating a man’s murder here that I’ve seen. But those of you who are proclaiming it’s only the liberals or the Dems who do this need to expand your source of information or remove your head from the sand or your nether regions, as applicable. Specifically, I would direct your attention to the murder of Melissa Hortman, the speaker of Minnesota’s House of Representatives and her husband, both democrats (oh and their dog). The man indicted for their murder, is a self proclaimed evangelical Christian. He allegedly targeted them and other prominent democrats in Minnesota because of their politics. I didn’t read every single post in this thread so I apologize if this has already been mentioned. But these murders occurred less than 90 days ago. I did go back through this page and couldn’t find a thread dedicated to these senseless killings. I am very glad that I didn’t find one blaming Republicans and/or evangelical Christians for their deaths. Because that would be as dumb and/or unfair as blaming an entire party or segment of a part for Charlie’s death. We know next to nothing at this point other than a good man, husband and father was senselessly executed. And while I think a lot of many of you who post here, whether I agree or disagree with you, if you are one of those who rushes to get to a keyboard and politicize these tragedies, I hate to break it to you but YOU are part of the problem.

Praise the Lord. With every resource available to literally every single coaching staff in existence, it's blatantly obvious that the WV coaching staff ditched all of those and finally reached out to the setxsports fan forum for some actual advice. Anyone that says that the very conversations had on this site along with reverting back to the ultra success of youth football weren't completely responsible for this win, then they are a liar. I even have it on good authority that there was actually a peewee coach in the press box with headsets.. giving the entire staff personnel suggestions. Thank goodness. One can only hope that the WV head coach will continue to lean heavily on the words spoken in this very website... as anyone with a brain knows that this is the gospel in terms of football knowledge.

I will make this one comment on the “both sides are guilty” argument. Big girl says that we celebrated Trayvon Martin and George Floyd’s deaths. That’s the biggest racist lie in the world, but if she repeats it and spreads it around enough, people will believe it. The Minnesota senator was also mentioned. Yes, she was killed by a so-called right leaning Christian. Am I proud? No. Did I celebrate? No. Charlie Kirk’s killer was raised in a conservative family, but no matter how much we try and raise our kids the right way, they can be indoctrinated. So “both sides” can have some kooks. This will be the point I am trying to make. When the Minnesota Senator and husband were killed, how many people in congress and Fox News made snide remarks about their murders…..NONE. How many people in congress and MSM, and even teachers have made snide remarks about Charlie Kirk’s murder? How many people have rejoiced in Kirk’s murder on social media. It’s really sickening the numbers. True, both sides have their black sheep, but for me, the left is more easily triggered (wrong pronouns) and are simply very callous in their feelings for those of us on the right. Let a man wear a MAGA hat while walking down a street in a liberal town. Now, let a man wear a Biden or Kamala shirt while walking down the street in a conservative neighborhood and you tell me who is safer. Last post on the subject. Not interested in the back and forth. I hate no one.

@Setx fan will come back and revisit this.

Vidor offense is just so... meh.... The passing plays are all play action and their receivers are not receivers but instead just the guys that run the plays into the huddle . Wouldnt worry about the pass too much, worry about the other 3 plays

As most of you know Bally is not doing a Friday night scoreboard show any longer. But there will still be a scoreboard show every Friday night at 10:30pm as Dave Campbell's presents Texas Football Tonight with Greg Tepper and Ashley Pickle It'll be FREE streaming on all platforms YouTube, Twitter, Facebook & on TexanLive!!

It's gotten me pretty far...even won me a couple of awards

Ill take PN-G vs the off week.

New ? Talk about a long road trip.

All my coaches interviews are below for 2025, including Week 3 with Jeff Joseph [Hidden Content]

Spidey---maybe some of those young kids will continue to get better? All programs have cycles of success and down years. That's high school sports. When you have good coaches and a good group of kids, enjoy the ride. When your team struggles, circle the wagons and encourage them to get better. Regardless, if those kids put on your school's colors, love them, encourage them, and support them. On my side of the tracks, if our kids struggle, I hope all Indian fans will love them and encourage them to compete and get better. Tearing them down on a public forum isn't helpful or supportive. Take the next two weeks, heal up, get better in practice, and go compete in district. Good things just might happen. GO INDIANS! Peace.

WOS has never been as big or bigger than PNG and are 20-9 all time vs PNG. That includes beating some very good PNG teams, including the year we went to state in 1999. Something is different at WOS and it’s not enrollment.

Righties on X were screenshotting celebratory posts and posting them and tagging people’s employers asking if they shared the same views as their employees all last night. And I’m going to be honest, I think it’s great. One of the biggest issues we’re facing today is that the fringe lunatic left was able to do and say literally whatever they wanted for a decade, often encouraged to do so by their political leaders. Never being held accountable for abhorrent behavior leads to more bad behavior. It honestly is likely playing a part in these assassinations and assassination attempts. When you’ve had it ingrained into you that the other side is the devil, while simultaneously being allowed to act however you want, it’s no surprise that some take it all the way.

I started deer hunting as an adult. Within a single box of shells I was putting 3 rounds inside of a silver dollar at 200 yds. It's really not hard with a decent gun and good optics. It's also worth noting that this shot had to be a miss that got lucky. From the angle it came in it was likely supposed to be a head shot that was several inches low and happened to catch his neck.

I agree. I don’t support the Democrat party whatsoever. But I’m not going to lump all Democrats into the same basket. My father-in-law, who passed away a couple years ago, voted for Joe Biden. He was afraid his benefits would be cut if he didn’t. He was scared. Old, frail and scared.He succumbed to his illness, and it didn’t really matter at that point. Regardless, he was a Democrat and one hell of a man. He didn’t agree with everything the Democrat party did, just like I don’t agree with everything republican. The people saying I hate all Democrats or I hate all Republicans are what’s wrong with what we have going on today. I don’t agree with the radical right or left. I lean pretty far right, but not to the point of wanting to take someone’s life or injure someone because I don’t agree. I think most Democrats are the same way. We just see the looney far left and think that all Democrats are like that. Well, they’re not. Misguided as they are, most Democrats don’t want to kill anyone over their ideology or beliefs.

I’m not caving into anything. I’m just sick of a crap and the back-and-forth. I never said the left and right are morally equivalent. I simply said there are issues on both sides, and until both sides come to terms for that, this is not going to end. And sadly, none of us can’t identify where the problem is because we’re too busy pointing fingers at the other guy.

I’m no liberal dem, but I agree with this below. We’ve all taken this stupid shit too far. Both sides.

34-0 WOS

Yep. Fascinate the fools with fear (killer immigrants) and loathing (transgender, etc,) and muzzle the scientists and thinkers (CDC, NWS, etc. and punish the universities that violate party goals). Glad to see your acknowledgment of what’s happening.

Woodville has a Rough crowd. Woodville give this new coach a chance. Look at us…. We lost the first few games last year & everyone was gathering the pitch forks , now they are getting crow. look at WOS, came back & beat Newton with the same coaching staff as last year. your not helping the coaches & your killing the kids morale.

Biggest surprise to me was LaMarque beating Huffman. SMH on that one.

!!score:23/20/F Timberwolves 23 Cardinals 20 Final Find A Way!!!

I don’t have one. I think parents addressing mental illness/issues with their kids and getting help versus ignoring it (because they don’t want to admit their child has a problem) may help. There may not be an answer, but I raised my kid like I was raised, I spent a lot of time with my Son, from coaching his sports to taking him fishing. During that time I taught him right from wrong, and to always be kind to people…..unless they want to hurt you, then defend yourself. so, maybe it starts at home….. I’m just rambling lol, but those are my thoughts on the subject

You're not sure how you feel about the First Amendment? Moral lessons are needed among the adults running this state, country, and the bigots that post here daily.

Way wrong. The school is responsible for providing an education. Not to monopolize on sports and NIL. Also, as a taxpayer I am not going to pay for your kid to come in and take advantage of what was built within the community. If your kid is that good, send them to IMG or a private school known for sports.

DISCOURAGE idleness. Not REWARD it.

Full stop. Just boil it down to what it is after 7 years, and the attitude shown in the video. Thou shall not steal. No further explanation required.

Don't let the fact that while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, 'Spare Tire' Dixon, distract you from the fact that this conversation is about a scrimmage.

Roger Stone - "Hey John, how does it feel to have your home raided at 6AM"? LOLOLOL CNN reporting on this is so biased it is ridiculous.

Two more years... to learn how to catch? Look.. I know it may be hard to hear that they likely have zero players that will lose an athletic scholarship because of the football season folding, but the truth hurts sometimes. It's not meant to be offensive. It's an absolute fact that the chances of a Texas high school football player receiving a scholarship to play beyond high school is miniscule. Roughly 2% receive a scholarship of any kind.. less than 1% receive a full scholarship. If you line up 100 kids from the state (including Westlake, Southlake Carrol, Carthage, Aledo,.. hell... Katy, Barbers Hill, Nederland, WOS..), you honestly think that 2.. or 1.. out of that 100 will be a kid that plays at Sabine Pass High School? Get your feelings out of the equation, dude. And.. believing that a kid incapable of (catching) as a sophomore can somehow be "coached up" and become a scholarship player brings your knowledge of the game into question.

Schedules are complete, let me know if you see any issues.

How can anyone get $2000 a month in food stamps??? Talk about overkill

I'd like to think its 51:44 of great football talk...but I'm biased

I agree. I compare this news source as the same as the Gateway Pundits of the world that get posted here daily.

Where to begin? This was good loss. This was learning experience. This is something we can take with us into district. Knowing we've played a top tier team to the best of our abilities. And seeing how a good staff strategically stops our game plan. We can build on this. Everyone better be there Monday ready to work. Ready to "EARN IT" Now I ask... do u think we believe that? Do you think the kids, or the coaches believe it? Is there anyone left wanting to bet the house on the Mustangs to win district? Dave Campbells changed their pick before the season ever started. We knew it would be tough to split the first 2 games. LV was an L. Now the next 2 htown games we'll be lucky to split. 1-2 turns to 2-3. Enter district with Jasper for Homecoming. Maybe we go 3-2 finish 3rd. Is 5-5 considered improvement? Second round and down. 6-6? WOS is better than this and we know it. Experts, announcers, SETXsports legends, Facebook fans. You know it too. Board members? Superintendent? <tap tap tap> Is this mic on?

I don’t know anyone that CELEBRATED Treyvon Martin’s death. They just said his killer was innocent of murder. Huge difference.

Ma'am, that's a far-left opinion hit piece written by a far left hack named Christopher D. Cook. Please find a non-opinion piece from someone a little less divisive, and you may get some traction.

I have a hard time throwing all liberals in one basket. Almost everyone would condiment this type of act.

Well, the mentally ill tolerant left has won, Charlie won’t be visiting campuses anymore. Very sad, and so utterly senseless.

I'm pulling a Kirk Herbstreit. Since I'll be covering this game, no prediction from me. LOL

You have to be a horrible person if you want to own another human being, and treat them like an animal. I dont care what was viewed as normal.

I'll be on the sidelines for this one. Got to see for myself all these great players riding the bench at Woodville.

Will be watching The Border Battle (La Porte vs Deer Park) on LPSportsnet. No way I can handle Mama Dawg in her transport chair & possible restroom needs in the overflow game crowd. We do intend to go to the Pep Rally at the stadium tomorrow night when it’s not quite as crowded.

Who knows? I could be a tactic to get her to talk. I find it hypocritical they accuse her of being a "known" liar and she will say "anything" because she was charged with perjury and but never convicted. Yet, we have Michael Cohen, convicted of perjury in 2018 used as a "key witness" in Trumps cases.......Funny how bias works

Maybe because academics is what school is for. Sports is extracurricular and not mandatory. It's a privilege, not a right. Most do not want school choice. Sports is not part of the curriculum. It's extra. One can go thru K-12 without playing any sports and graduate.. One cannot do that without taking some English or math class. That's the difference.

Not there but based on what I’ve heard from someone there… Lumberton looks rough and HF doesn’t

Don't know how accurate any of this, but an anecdotal note realted to the list. I work in Houston and people from there ask me often why I live anywhere near Beaumont because of the danger....like it or not the reputation of Beaumont is poor. When people from Houston feel their town is safer than yours that's not good.

$2000 a month of food stamps is crazy. We're able to afford what we want and my family of four doesn't spend but around half of that a month on food at the grocery store. And that's with these goofy prices.
