  2. Week 10 and Week 11 have coverage area teams as the best game. Week 10 is Angleton at La Porte Week 11 is Garrison at Joaquin (I have permission from the DCTF guys to post that info)

  3. I worked in inner city Beaumont for 15 years, exclusively with families below the poverty line. Lots of them do things right, but lots of them abuse the system. To pretend the abuse isn’t rampant is silly. As someone who devoted what will end up being around half of my professional career to helping and working with the impoverished, I have no issue with more restrictions on what government handouts are used for. Nobody should starve, but other people’s tax money shouldn’t be spent on luxuries.

  4. No excuse period! This same energy we all should have with Maxine. They should be prosecuted no matter the race. Same energy should be used for the people who hurt kids. Not going to the extreme of making them comfortable.

  7. Another progressive activist, economic justice socialist warrior is leading the mayoral race in Seattle. It’s clear the far left Socialist wing of the Democratic Party has all the momentum. The Democratic Party as it was known from the Kennedy days is gone. They may as well change their name to The New Socialist Party.

  9. You really should quit while you’re behind. This ISN’T civil disobedience. It’s dereliction of duty. It’s a civil offense according to the Texas Constitution, and CAN result in expulsion. The link you posted is great. But, it points out minimum requirements on timing & procedures for implementation. Nothing is written anywhere in the Texas Constitution about not having redistricting on a shorter time basis. Redistricting MUST be done every 10 years after the national census. It could be done every other year. Nothing prevents it. There will be lawsuits either way. It DOES NOT take a Constitutional Amendment. Not sure where you’re pulling all this stuff from, but it must be dark in there. In Texas’ history, only one Party has ever used the quorum break option, even though—historically—they’ve been the majority in Texas. Democrats have used this ‘nuclear option’ four times. 1870, 1979, 2003, and 2021. Now, we have five times. Republicans have NEVER used this option, even though they have actually been the minority Party in Texas for the majority of its history. You say Republicans in Texas are acting like ‘occupiers.’ Interesting. I say they were voted in to represent their constituents, and are the clear majority in Texas. I may not like this redistricting idea at this time. I think it opens a can of worms that don’t need to be opened. But, it’s legal. I could even argue—with the recent population growth—it may be appropriate to relook at the timing of redistricting in general. But, I think it should be something done in regular session & not rushed through at the whims of DC. So far, you’ve been posting a lot about this with very little real, accurate info to back up your posts.

  12. DC game will be Hardin/OF. I wouldn't be surprised if Hardin won it this year.. but I'm told it's straight back to the mediocrity train after this season. EC always finds a way to EC... we'll see.

    And I will say Trump had no problem jumping all over the 818,000 downward revision the same person (McEntarfer, appointed by Biden) released in August, 2024 - in the heat of a presidential election battle. It did not help the Democrats position so the Weasel ate it up. His posts on his Truth Social network roasted the dems over that report. Go on defending the indefensible.

  15. I'm starting to hear there was more to the story than these folks just randomly attacked. No excuse for the violence, but not sure who provoked.

  16. Perhaps, they would need many new players to “run away with the District”.

  17. They're going to be good, like most seasons, but they aren't running away with anything. OF and Hardin are the 2 frontrunners.

  19. Much appreciated response. 3A-1 District 10. You are correct that the website has the full write ups. It looks like the editors literally just cut everything out for the district teams down to 1 sentence from the full write up. Disappointing that the other districts that correspond to our area in 3A-2, 2A-1 and 2A-2 all have the full write ups in the magazine but I do understand space limitations. And I also think understand everyone can’t be pleased. I know it’s griping but I do appreciate DCTF and the team and the coverage they provide for Texas high school football. Was just sour opening the magazine, and it didn’t help that it was almost a full month after seeing it blow up on social media of many others receiving theirs early. Like I said, the subscription is more than just the magazine and the online stuff knocks it our of the park every week.

  25. Had the beatdown been reversed it would be covered very differently. Keep it up Libs.........stuff like this is why President Trump got elected. Oh, the 99 that filmed and did not report it should be sitting next to the 3 pieces of garbage in a jail cell.
