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

I liked my doctor too…

SOC is right next to Lancaster, DeSoto and Duncanville, really good talent that may not get the same playing time in 6A, they just move in and compete well in 5A DII. As everyone else has stated, that's been going on in DFW a long time. UIL can't keep up with any of it.

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

Journalism is great & I'm happy for your awards. But, I hope your Carnac the Magnificent skills are better! 😁

DCTF praises them for their on field accomplishments, IMO it is a huge accomplishment.. I'd say if you have evidence of them recruiting submit it to the UIL by all means

Newton has won 13 straight district titles. They finished 2nd in 2011. Currently on a 79 game district winning streak.

Thou shalt have no other Gods before me.

According to the article it’s not the score but a campus that has had an F for 5 consecutive years. It was more like 8-9 years but they got the covid exemption. So for almost a decade they have a school not meeting the minimum standard.

Speaking with Fox & Friends Tuesday morning about his efforts to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, the president claimed that he had settled seven wars. I’ve solved seven wars. We ended seven wars,” Trump said “I thought this would be one of the easier ones, and this has turned out to be the toughest one.” India, Pakistan, these were big ones, also. All big ones. And some going for 31, 32 years. One for 35 years,” he continued. “I got them all done. But this one is the one that is the most difficult, and I thought it would be an easy one. I hope President [Vladimir] Putin is gonna be good, and if he’s not it’s going to be a rough situation. And I hope that President [Volodymyr] Zelenskiy will do what he has to do. He has to show some flexibility also. The thing is a mess.” I’ll have two of what ever this con man is drinking. 😂 Dementia is real. He is declining fast. Time for the autopen. Midterms are coming.

I appreciate your support and acknowledgement of my achievements, I hope to achieve much more. it's really a blessing to cover TXHSFB.

Word I am getting is that Sabine Pass is canceling all their non-district games but hopes to be able to field a team for district games. High Island is indeed canceling their season but will play a Middle School season. @Bigdog @Matthew328

I'll bite......I'm sure you have more proof than the distain in your head?

I will fix it.

Nope. I wish Trump was a better negotiater.

So you find it funny Trump has not ended a war Biden started? All I need to know

Yeah right. Trump was selling Bibles.

You find that funny. Do you find the over 100 drones killing 15 civilians in Ukraine funny? Pretty sad coming from a nurse

To say the least 🤣 but too be fair a lot can change between now and then

If ya ain't cheating u ain't tryin lol...tbh, i wish PAM did some recruiting...side line and players...

You put enough stipulations on who you'll accept then it doesn't matter how many kids are drawn. If they're required to meet certain academic/behavior standards and live out of district, you can say no to every one of them.

To all you Trump haters…..Trump is trying his best to end this war, but when both sides don’t want to give in, it’s almost hopeless. Trump cannot be blamed for this, but I’m sure you will blame him anyway. [Hidden Content]

I love your perspective. Moving them from downtown to your neighborhood makes matters worse. Place them in a recovery camp like they do immigration. A Camp that provides rap around services and teaches VT or culinary arts etc. The same thought process that went into housing immigration should have been applied to homelessness and not a knee jerk reaction. We lock them up but that only clogs up the courts and two are three days later they are back on the streets. Don’t let me start on mental heath. I have EPC mental health patients and brought them to the hospital. The hospital released them 24 hours later because DSS refuses to open a case. They have no more funding and the state of South Carolina has only 20 beds available. If you have health insurance you can be placed into a mental health facility and or a drug facility. I continue to do my part. If you are homeless depressed and want off drugs I get you help through Life Changers Out Reach which is a 12 month program the covers food housing and programs. It is faith based so you will study the Bible and attend classes. You have a roof over your head and you are surrounded by people that will show you kindness and leadership. It may seem like I’m dumping on other states but it’s the only tool I have right now to combat homelessness and drug addiction for someone who wants change.

Just a question... In bold: any evidence of this?? (Real evidence, not accusations)

This is one of those situations where there really is no GOOD answer for the homeless. How do you help someone that does not want to help themselves? A lot of them are alcoholics or drug users, and all they want is the next fix. Some of them are just plain lazy and won't do anything to make their life better. Some have mental issues and need treatment. We can jail them for breaking our laws, and at least then they get a shower and 3 meals. It's easy to say it needs to be fixed. You can get all warm and fuzzy by saying they should be left alone....problem is, if you're being honest, you don't want them pitching a tent in your front yard. Businesses does not want them on their property, or in front of their business. 99.9% of people don't like walking around or through tents pitched on a sidewalk. Lastly, There has been a homeless problem for how many years? It certainly didn't just happen under either of Trumps terms. It has been an ongoing issue and getting WORSE - so, maybe throwing tax dollars at it is not solving anything. We've been doing that and it's not getting better. So, IF Doge cut those programs, maybe we can save that money for a better solution to the homeless problem.......because what we have been doing is not working.

Saw this statement on X. I tend to agree with it. About time to relieve the stress and just see how the Astros baseball season is going to wind up--good or bad--and accept their fate. Injuries have decimated and the long season has ground them down

Yep. Close that campus from open enrollment and live that 6-man life

I didn't notice this before: Little Rock is the 4th most dangerous and Chicago is 16th. Unless Little Rock has gone down the tubes, that does make me scratch my head about being above Chicago.

IMO SP needs to either not let as many kids transfer into the district to keep them below that 109 number to play 6 man or allow significant more kids be a big 2A / set up billboards through out mid to south Jefferson county to promote “recruit” to SP

All seriousness Newsweek got that all wrong. Memphis, Durham, St. Louis, Chicago, NOLA, Shreveport and Charlotte have killings almost every day. Beaumont is not even close.

Dallas isd only cares about soc !! And Jason todd!! He'll with the rest !!

Diaz was safe at home and that would have won the game. Brown getting out of the runner on third with no outs was amazing.

No more crybabies? Wanna tissue? Why do you want the war to end? Because you care about Ukraine? Not…..

I for one would like him to enforce pressure on Russia. Try applying what Lindsey Graham suggested.

I question any list that doesn’t include NOLA.

Bring in the National Guard! 😂 as the con man would say. Say it ain’t so for the Red state.

All bets are off if the court rules Trump can’t impose tariffs in the manner he has used. I’d expect that decision to come out by mid to late next month. Also, I’m FIRMLY against the Trump Administration looking to take a 10% stake in Intel. This is no better than Soylndra, or any other ‘too big to fail’ venture. This is a form of socialism/communism, and shouldn’t even be on the table. We’ve (Biden Admin) already given Intel over $10 Billion, and they’ve done nothing. The government has no business using our money to take a stakeholder position in any company. Very disappointed in him even contemplating this fiasco.

Many things affect prices. Wages, government spending, disease among crops/livestock/poultry, weather, war, energy, tariffs… Inflation is never caused by a single item problem. The current tariffs aren’t effecting prices at this time. This is a shell game being played by producers/sellers to squeeze a little more profit, and a general excuse for poor company performance. Good management teams are doing just fine as the markets attest. Tariff costs will hit. But, mainly Brazil. The others are already incorporated into costs. The effective, all-inclusive tariff rate is about 13-15%. Producers are basically absorbing the 10%. With the passage of the BBB, real wage increases (increases minus inflation) should wind up around $3500-$10k/yr. for the average family making ~$70k/year. Obviously, those not paying income tax now will have minimal benefit. That’s where increased medical costs may hurt them. Medical costs will need to be addressed, or there will be major sticker shock. I’d expect produce, coffee, chocolate, and beef all to rise in price. But beef is as much due to the screwworm invasion, drought, and low domestic cattle numbers as it is tariffs on Brazil. We only import 20% of our beef from Brazil. Shelf stable items should remain about the same as what they are currently. I still expect a 50 basis point cut by the Fed in September. I could be wrong. But, they’re behind the 8 ball as I mentioned earlier.

We don't want 0%. 2%-2.5% is the target inflation. Trump has reduced Bidens hyperinflation from 9% down to his 2.7%. Still a tiny bit of work to do but it came WAY down from Biden. Gas is very cheap for summer driving too. It normally goes way up but it did not this summer. Yeah, Trump did that!

About time. All inactive TS clearances should be reviewed for need & access. All active TS clearances for separated personnel should be rechecked—including their digital footprint, and all the way down to their third sister’s aunt’s adopted cat. Check the shelter and microchip as well. This stuff has been ridiculous. I had to turn mine in upon separation. That’s the way it should be for all. Expediency/cost be damned.

Out of likes for some reason, agree 100%.

Could be having an enrollment to enable one to play 6-Man. Pretty sure that would eliminate SP. I wasn't really thinking enrollment so my comment about them playing 6-Man is probably out of their control.

Military strategists are not needed. Negotiators are. Why do you want this war stopped. You said nothing when Biden escalated it by supplying $billions and equipment, causing the deaths of millions of civilians, but Trump says he will end it on day one and Now you want it stopped. Why? I’ll tell you why…..FAKE OUTRAGE.

I am not a military strategist so I dont know, but he is the President and he has advisors. Someone said that he should place sanctions on them. It is funny because he said he would end the war on day 1

Nederland is always full of douches who like to trash talk kids.

Careful there, buddy. Gonna get blasted......

We stopped at Buc-ee’s just to “use the bathroom real quick.” Rookie mistake. Twenty minutes later… I’m pushing a cart (WHY do they even have carts at a gas station??), my toddler is licking a 3-pound bag of gummy worms, My husband is talking to a complete stranger about beef jerky like it’s a fine wine tasting, and I’m somehow Standing there with a cart full of fudge, a brisket sandwich the size of my face., matching family Buc-ee’s shirts, and a cast iron skillet I absolutely did NOT need The baby has a whole new wardrobe and is now chewing on a Buc-ee’s spatula like a teether The 5-year-old has a beaver plushie the size of a Golden Retriever. And I’m $300 poorer wondering how the heck we just left a GAS STATION with more stuff than I got at Target last week. Buc-ee’s isn’t a gas station. It’s a full-blown amusement park disguised as a bathroom break. And we fall for it EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Send help. And wet wipes. And maybe another brisket taco.
