Carthage fan here apologizing for the error made in my very first post on this site in the Sinton thread. I posted the score of a 2008 Rockdale-Carthage playoff game as being a WO-S-Carthage game. I was relying on a website which listed all Carthage playoff games, which go back to the 40s. The lesson is not to believe everything you read! WO-S is on quite a roll. Says a lot about the character of a team to overcome the adversity of starting a season 2-3 by winning 10 straight to get to the state championship game. Expecting a great game Friday between two schools with impressive pedigrees…and some great athletes.

Here is my 2 cents that probably means absolutely nothing.... First, This is one of those things I wish he would of kept his mouth shut.... It would have probably served him better. Someone's death is not the time to get the last word..... However, Trump has been delt some bad hands since 2016. He has been accused of being a Nazi, Racist, Pedophile , mentally unfit, crook and probably more I don't remember. There is now evidence, and pretty good evidence that he was set up to fail by the Obama administration, the Hillary administration started the Russia hoax, Biden admin and certain states used Lawfare to try and bankrupt him and send him to jail, and at his age, would of been a life sentence.....and in this political climate there was 2 assassination attempts on his life, one being an inch from ending his life..... Reiner was a very loud critic of Trump, he helped launch a committee to investigate the Russian hoax (and never admitted it was a hoax), called him unfit to serve, called him a Fascist, claimed Trump was gong to end Democracy, wanted to charge Trump with TREASON (death sentence), wanted Trump to spend the rest of his life in prison..... There was some bad blood between the two, and if we are all being honest, our opinions of people do not change when someone dies. Again, he should of kept his mouth shut, but I can see his motivation to speak out.

Rude and crude is one thing. But making comments like that when a man and his wife are murdered by their son? That's so out of line and disrespectful. Makes him no different than the folks he was criticizing for their comments after Kirk was killed. Very two faced. We are not debating policies here. Just be a descent human being. Something I expect my president to be. Just needs to be more respectful. Not hard to do.

Completely unnecessary from Trump. Just doesn't make any sense to do that. It certainly isn't very presidential.

Doesn’t have to be right, just anti Trump. Only requirement.

Y'all really sound like some losers talking about "why doesn't Carthage opt to play up?" Like, why would they do that? They are squarely in the middle of D2 numbers. Because they are successful? The schools mentioned that opted to play up probably did so for travel purposes, not because they thought it would be fair to the rest of D2.

Yes.

Orangefield handled HJ more easily than they did BC earlier this year even though they were both convincing wins for us. However, HJ had their football guys and BC didn't. BC is a different team with Mungy on the floor and he is the catalyst that gets Bush going. No knock on HJ at all, but I got BC by 15.

HJ has been up and down as expected, but they're starting to click winning 5 of their last 6. I would be surprised if this one is "ugly."

I am expecting a very close game.

He was VERY respectful to WOS and raved about the RB. Were you really expecting them to pick WO-S?

Of all teams playing for state this week WOS is the farthest away. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" Let's go Mustangs!

Looks like all of current 12-5A D1 stays except Buda Hayes. They're now 6A. So, it would be an 8 team district if it stays as is. That makes R3 have 33 teams again--including Lufkin. Three districts of 8 & one district with 9.

Numbers 4-7 are spot on. There’s no question many things were changed those first two years and the facts show it didn’t turn out for the better. Beginning last year they got back to more of what made Mustang football so successful and the results are speaking for themselves. He and his staff have earned more respect. I just feel very badly for the kids that played those first two seasons. All their young life they dreamed of wearing that silver hat and following in the footsteps of those that played before them and they were caught up in an experiment that went wrong. Many don’t actually place alot of the responsibility on Hickman and his staff for that, it mainly fell on the previous superintendent Ricky Harris. He wanted so badly to show the world that WO-S could be successful doing things differently and with a different style and we all seen how that turned out. Good luck to Hickman and his staff and the Mustangs on Friday. Orange is proud of yall.

Lol @ NS in 18 instead of 23, that makes zero sense.

Last realignment, there were 33 5A DI teams in Region III [Hidden Content]

Sterling is still D1 along with GCM. I count 25 5A D1 teams in R3 (including Lufkin). Three R3 districts of 8, or 2 with 8 & 1 with 9 maybe? 5A D1 Teams presumably in R3: BWB Pasadena Angleton La Porte Sterling Spring Westfield Fort Bend Dulles Houston Northbrook GCM Milby Houston Math & Science Tech Katy Freeman South Houston New Caney Richmond Randle PAM Lufkin *** Galveston Ball Friendswood BU Iowa Colony Kingwood Park Richmond Tomas New Caney Porter Houston Spring Woods

Maybe Jill Biden. Lol

With that logic, would you have a problem with a school just 4 off from being in a lower division "opting down"....you know, for "travel" purposes? (I realize it's not an option). UIL should just make people play in the classification they are supposed to be in. It's ridiculous to "opt up" to get an easier path.

In SETX, schools only opt up to play against lesser competition. Travel is not a factor.

Well cmon then, I got some expired kibbles n bits to feed them puppies 😁🙃

I would like that.

I think it’s time for a different way to count the kids. The state knows exactly how many kids are in each school because they send “x” amount of dollars per kid, per day to the school districts. So, by knowing how much money is sent to the school districts you would know how many kids they have in attendance.

Are you really this sensitive or is this just a gimmick?

"Politicians are the lowest form of life on earth. Liberal Democrats are the lowest form of politicians." Not sure of the origin of the statement but I’d have to agree with it.

Barbers Hill and Crosby are now 6A

Hardin just made division 2

Glad to see you are doing well.

The suspects are white, so Big Girl or anyone else can’t cry racism. She should have shot them before they beat her up. Maybe the parents can be sued for raising hoodlums.

What a wonderful tribute to a great leader of young men of which I was once one. Great coach and even better person who left an undeniable legacy on the field, at the school and in the hearts of those under his leadership. If that bothers anyone here then I think they might need a character check.

Don’t see a problem here, other than the lawsuit.

Go ahead and download it. All state championship games will be streamed on that app. It’s free

I agree. BTW folks, tip off time is for 6:15. That may take me out of attending. Will just watch on NFHS.

The difference is one was a political assassination, while the other was an internal family matter. Neither should be condoned. Just like disrespecting either death shouldn't be condoned.

I think there were quite a number shots fired.

Final 71-43 PA Memorial

FINAL Barbers Hill 47 Deer Park 59

Yes. That’s what I use. Big screen Roku TV, 32”TCL with Roku system, & Roku 4K stick on cheap Insignia 32” all work fine. You just have to check your specific TV to see which remote buttons to use for FF, etc. as mine are all different. Some, it’s just the right selector button, others it’s holding down the FF button, another one it’s holding down the play/pause button. Mine takes a few seconds of holding down the button to see the progress bar. On all my TV’s it will show up at the bottom when you’re trying to FF or Reverse. But, it’s not on all the time.

I agree. SP is too lazy on defense. Also, no real structure on offense. Particularly when they get down. It's mostly one on one trying to shoot three's. Big Sandy will give them problems in district but SP should win it. As for playoffs, they will go DI. Being that they are in Region IV, hard to tell how they will fare. They are fortunate that they are in IV and not III with San Augustine. Port Aransas and Mumford will be strong out IV.

You strike me as someone who would argue with a wall and always has to get the last word.

I usually walk in and go the direction the arrow points.

Those guys at DCTF are so biased it’s pathetic!! They RARELY give SETX teams any respect or credit! 🙄 Go PROVE EM WRONG STANGS!

He doesn't play or coach

The Stangs got their hands full for sure. I knew that when Carthage beat Texas Tech in a preseason scrimmage. Don't sell the ponies short, they'll bring it for sure. Bring it home Mustangs.

You said what you needed to say as did I,we didn’t gain a thing from this conversation,same as the past conversations.. I will go back to ignoring your posts because they are irrelevant for the program..👌

It took some of the kids from SOC to demand better facilities. It's documented.

Give an email and I’ll send it to u. I would have posted on here but it won’t let me. U got video of those kids doing that? I got video of 75 kicking a player and it’s all over Facebook. I can stand up to it because I know what former players endured playing png. Doesn’t matter. Even some of png fans are separating themselves from people like u. If those kids did do it, I’m sure fans and players said something to them first. Oh and I didn’t have to be there smart guy. The Humidor Cigar Lounge streamed it for all to laugh at PNG and cheer for SOC lol
