  1. 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.

  2. whatever y'all need to tell yourselves, I guess. I get that it's "just a scrimmage", but really? when you get beat so bad one team sits starters during the live portion that's saying something.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

    He has participated. Would be no different than a player transferring after playing last season. If it is determined the transfer is for athletic reasons (which this one would clearly be) then he will be ineligible. I can't see any DEC ruling him eligible. No matter if he establishes residency. Also, the word I am getting on this situation is this young man has got the wrong people in his ear telling him he doesn't have to go by the team rules. They had some issues last season. Not a team player. Thinks he is above the team and should be treated special. He came in this season with the attitude that you can't win without me so therefore treat me that way. Brenham will never sign off on him and whatever district he transfers to (if he does) that DEC will not rule him eligible. I will say, if he were to transfer, his best bet would be with Navasota. It's possible that the two Fort Bend schools (Crawford and Willowridge) along with Stafford, could vote in his favor just to keep the opportunities open for themselves when transfers come their way. He would need to transfer now so that DEC can make the ruling. Next year a different DEC could be in play with realignment.

  9. ok. you was there. It was 6 tds to nothing before NED scored. That's not true? I'm lying? You don't think WB pulled back? It was 4 starters on the field when you scored. NED is trying to say we played even in this 30 snap window and disregarding the other 80 snaps, I hope NED have a good season. But come on guys. Ya'll tripping.

  12. I have wondered for years why we didn’t make more of an effort to ramp up LNG exports to hurt Russia’s natural gas business. Sanctions will work and Graham’s plan to put tariffs on Russia’s customers would seem effective but I’m not up on all the details of his plan.

    McCullers got out of a bases loaded jam in the first. Gave up a hit and 2 BB's. Did get 2 K's. McCullers has walked entirely too many batters this season.

    Trump Admin doesn’t need to be talking anything about socialism or communism any more after taking a 10% stake in ownership of Intel & having the Pentagon becoming the largest shareholder in a critical mineral mining operation. I understand the needs. But, this is no different than the CCP. Spin it how you want. This is communism at its core, and it’s picking winners & losers. Totally against free market principles. From a practical standpoint, the last time the government made a move like this (GM in 2008), we wound up losing $10 Billion.

    If I am the Navasota coach, I'm telling him to take his ass back to Brenham. If he isn't compliant there, he won't be compliant at Navasota. It's a tale as old as time. He needs his dad or an uncle to snatch him up by his shirt collar, drag him into the Brenham field house, make him apologize to his coaches and team, then get his behind in gear to be ready to roll before district play starts.

  26. Both sides were hiding something. Uncover all of them. There’s only one place for people like that. Prison doesn’t reform sex predators they are housed in protective custody and/or special housing. Everyday someone is posting on Facebook of a child that has gone missing. Biden administration was wrong and Trump administration was wrong. Trump needs to explain to the public and to the victims families why inmate Maxine is receiving special treatment. She is not in protective custody or special housing.

  29. Yes I was there and watched and you can TOTALLY disregard all ferretts comments. Inaccurate. Ned is young and will take time to develop no doubt, but in the portion that was live it was evenly matched and WBs starters were in when Ned scored

  33. In Orangefield/Silsbee scrimmage: OF 1st team scored on 3 long TD passes. Silsbee 1st team scored 3 rushing TD's and 1 passing TD. Orangefield had lots of trouble running on the Silsbee defense. Silsbee run game looked very solid. Tiger secondary will have to improve. Lot's of blown coverages. With no contact on the QB, it is hard to assess how the Silsbee QB will be. Many times he could have tucked and ran with it and they never really ran a read option due to the no contact. I think he will bring a dynamic to that position that Silsbee has not had since the Jeremy Johnson and Patrick Reed days.
