    Trump Effect

    I think it will come down to the economy. Blame may be part of it. There is a saying that all politics are local. That is probably not 100% true, but there is certainly a lot of truth in it. An example is that Nancy Pelosi in some polls has shown to be the most unpopular politician in America, yet the Democrats had her as the Speaker. The country haters her but unlike the president, she is not on the national ballot. She is only from one district in San Francisco and she wins there by landslide. Politics is local. The national news media can talk about good times or bad times but people tend to vote on what is happening in their area. Politics is local. To expand on that, the Democrats are notorious for shooting themselves in the foot with their issues and campaign strategies. They choose hills to die on like taking away firearms, having schools teach and facilitate gender change without parental consent or knowledge, throwing the borders open, etc.Nationally some of that may play well but does it play well in southeast Texas or northwest Missouri? So if the economy is down or there is some other major issue going on and the Democrats give up on their identity politics, they have a good shot at the presidency. Hopefully they will hold to their strategy like the movie Idiocracy. If it seems utterly ridiculous, do it!

    Austin Metcalf Case

    They have to (and certainly will) find a point of appeal where Anthony didn’t receive a fair trial because __________(fill in the blank). The Black women who were struck by the prosecution, faulty jury instructions, jury misconduct, evidence allowed that should have been excluded, etc.

  8. It appears that the verdict took less than 3 hours of deliberation, whatever that means.

  10. Agreed, and that Odom group is strong. Also, that Summit team that beat BU in state, had lost three of there best players from the year before when they won state. I believed BU could make state last year, before Payton or Campbell transferred in. So with the additions and what they still have now, BU could be back to at least Semi finals for state. But only if they in 5A D2 this coming year

    Iran War Update

    Well, since all you seem to want to do is come in here and take your pot shots and me and Reagan, you can have it, Porter. Feel free to reuse “pot shots”. Simple Google search: Representative Thomas Massie voted to block President Trump's 2019 national emergency declaration regarding the southern border. [1, 2] He was one of 13 House Republicans who broke party lines in February 2019 to support the resolution overturning the declaration. Massie later joined 14 Republicans in March 2019 to vote with all Democrats to override President Trump's veto of the measure. He justified his votes by asserting that the Constitution grants the power of the purse exclusively to Congress and that a president cannot bypass this by reallocating funds when Congress refuses to approve their spending requests

    Austin Metcalf Case

    I have not been able to watch anything, but I from what I remember: --He brought a knife to a track meet. --He went and sat under another teams tent. --Refused to leave when asked to leave. Is this accurate to what has been going on with the case?

  13. That 2017 Silsbee team was crazy deep. A total of 11 players off that team went on to play the next level in either football or basketball. Not bad for a little ole small town 4A team.
