  1. 👍🏼 I did a simple Google search of how many people are killed every year by medical malpractice in the US. The answer was 250,000 to 440,000. I asked how many people every year were killed by the police and it was about 1,300. So the average person is more than 300 times more likely (30,000%) to be killed by a doctor or nurse than the police. Also note that nearly anyone can be killed by medical malpractice but the number of people who come into dangerous confrontations with the police are extremely limited. The situation is almost always initiated by a criminal suspect, not the police. So for the average citizen he/she is probably 500 times more likely a person dies at the hands of a doctor than the police (and most are justified unlike medical malpractice) yet do the medical professions get disparaged because of those statistics?

  2. It's a crying shame that we/us as a nation, live and die on every word one man says. What happened to loving your neighbor, minding your own business, and living life?? All I see now is EVERYONE fighting about this and that... Does it really matter that much? NOOOO! Turn off the damn news and go on about your business. Tell someone with different beliefs hi and go on. Life is too damn short to be fighting/arguing all the time! FYI... NO one is right when it comes to fighting/arguing and trying to prove a point. **I voted for President Trump (both times).

  4. Still being researched, we don't know if it was poor decision or right decision. All I know is when the lights come on behind me, I pullover and turn my vehicle off, roll my windows down, take my wallet out and put my hands on the wheel....... If I get shot, it will be so obvious it was the cops fault, there will be no need for research.

  5. Probably not fair to judge the whole ICE program by a couple of poor officer decisions. Just like cops, a couple of poor decisions doesn’t make the police bad.

  7. I would say move it from San Antonio...Austin was the best fit but hotel avalibility is a problem around that time...And yes 100% agree the semi-final games should return to State, and yes I understand why they changed it because they created 2 divisions per class....

    To be quite honest, I don't hate are have i’ll feelings toward anyone on the board. Truth be told I have a good friend on here who we disagree a lot about on the forum. When we are off this forum we check on each other. I don't take it personal neither does he or Regan. We're retired and just sitting under the palmetto tree talking trash. I am just a cloud with no rain passing time. I agree with mat.

  13. I didn’t listen to the entire show but the part I did listen to they didn’t mention Port Arthur. Port Arthur is the King of this district until someone kicks them off their throne. They said Laporte made a run last year. That run was into the Bi-District round. No disrespect to Laporte. Just repeating what those uninformed individuals said. They also each have a love affair with Lufkin for some reason. Maybe I am off my meds with these predictions but here are mine: 1. PAM 2. Laporte 3. Beaumont Westbrook 4. New Caney 5. Beaumont United 6. Lufkin 7. Goose Creek Memorial 8. Baytown Sterling 9. Galveston Ball

  22. The theory cant work for any team. Channelview improving slightly wont help NS. But NS playing at a high level has definitely elevated SC and CEK. What is unique about Jasper is the tradition of success. Crumedy went 4 rounds deep into December just 3 years ago. 2018 we met them at Lamar in the 3rd round. We all know the expectations with the new staff in place. This will be a major improvement over the next few years.

  23. Where is the evidence Mueller threatened to put anyone in jail for life? I just can’t fathom the idea of wishing the death of another human. If someone maliciously threatened my family illegally I would want them prosecuted to the full extent of the law. But dead? That goes against my Christian beliefs.

    All they gotta do is recoup some of the fraud money in Minnesota and California, they could finance the war effort, fix SS, and give every American $10,000.

  33. I really think the district may be fairly wide open for PO spots. I just don’t have a clue about NC & Ball. Rangers have some experience coming back. Wizord may be right, and they may surprise. He’s been around a long time. Usually he has a pretty good take on things. I do know the Dawgs are coming in mad with vengeance on their mind. They’ve been stewing for months. But, I still think they may start out slow. Wouldn’t doubt if it was more like the 2024 season.

  34. For y’all & Lufkin fans—since Lufkin doesn’t really have much major metro coverage—this is a weekly show on broadcast TV (local CBS channel 11 Houston I think), and this YouTube channel that will talk 9-5A D1 teams every week since half of the district teams are considered GHA. The YouTube channel will discuss 9-5A D1 every week. The TV program may only hit highlights. Stepp usually joins the YouTube channel every week with his thoughts as well.

  36. First, I understand your general interest. WV had a great run, he was their QB, and he and his family are high profile. That said, keep in mind BH has been deemed "no longer in SETX coverage" due to its new district, and that's OK. In turn, BH just won't have the same coverage and number of posters and info here in the future. BH news and discussion will likely be quite limited ahead. I know some BH posters simply lost interest here and moved on, while some others just got tired of all the BH bashing and misinformation allowed. They had their fill of it and didn't need that BS anymore. They are gone. The bottom line is, the news that Babin has left WV is all that's really pertinent to SETX. Where he ends up (out of SETX coverage) is incidental. Again, I do understand your general curiosity. We will all know for sure pretty soon. Its just a few weeks away. That's just "my 2 cents", nothing more.

    Slight lean in favor of Montgomery due to RB Keldrid Ben. He's not the biggest, fastest, or most elusive RB, but defenders just bounce off of him. You are not going to arm tackle him. Even when a defender puts a good hit on him, you better bring some friends to get him on the ground. He can take a hit, keep his balance, and keep going.

    Huntsville problem may not be the reload part.. they always got the athletes. It’s the bonehead penalties. That was a very sloppy team last year when it came to that and shot themselves in the foot a lot.

    1. lumberton 2. huffman 3. bridge city 4. LCM 5. Vidor 6. Livingston 7. Liberty Vidor and LCM could go either way Vidor will definitely have a better season compared to last years, but they arent going to be able to stop the other bigger and faster offenses in the disrict such as lcm, bridge city, huffman or lumberton.

  48. Right on brother !!! The Bobcats are the only traditionally known power house football program in Liberty County. Also the only program to ever win a State Championship. And yes H-D leads the head to head series against Hardin by like 40 wins to 10 losses. H-D is known for football Hardin is known for what ? And yes it is very special to wear that red and black under the friday night lights !!! On the other hand I do have to say Hardin has been a night and day program in the last 5- 10 years. Hardin has been playing good ball as of late, and Friday should be a classic rival game close to the end. Merch that was the best post ever go Bobcats !!!
