Oh the outrage!!! Lower a flag? How about just standing up...which is what the entire dem side of congress couldn't do for a young black boy suffering from brain cancer (State of the Union)...or mothers of the women who were raped and murdered by illegals. You're talking about 1 man lowering a flag when your entire party can't even muster enough integrity to stand.. LOL at the selective outrage!

We'll be live from Houston Sunday and Monday from 11am-2pm with a great cast of college and TXHSFB head coaches, so join us for free if you are jonesing for some TXHSFB talk!! Also we'll have a special live edition of TepAndStepp Tuesday AM at 9am on the final day of the convention

Ahhh the age old question, is the coach or the players? Seems to me the actual answer is somewhere in between…

Bannon is a scumbag. But LOL at anything related to "threat to democracy" or "pillars of democracy" coming from a dem, whose party unilaterally installed an unelected Kamala as their candidate. And is about to hand-pick a senator replacement for your rapist in Maine.

You remind me of one of those people who can't accept when they are wrong. They keep trying to prove their theory, and all it does is dig a deeper hole. Just stop because you know damn good and well that PNG's staff, Carthage's staff, is not rolling into Vidor and winning WITHOUT the help of Jimmy's and Joe's transferring in.

Not the players huh?!?! So, when Vidor was playing against players like James Brown, Leeland McElroy, Tiki Hardeman, Adam Dunn, Clint Stoerner and a ton of other players... Vidor had a chance if they had better coaching?!?! Or when Vidor's heaviest offensive lineman is 200lbs playing across from D-lineman that avg. 250... not the players, huh? Or when Vidor's fastest player runs a high 4.7 and their opponent has multiple players run 4.6 or better... not the player's, huh? Better coaching would have those players running faster and putting on more weight and would of had them competing against players who had great high school, college, and pro careers, huh?!?!

I'd stick with predicting elections, or something different. You've been wrong on this one from the very beginning.

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.

It’s a public forum… people are gonna discuss things lol

Jasper getting better makes us all better

It only took 3 post for Trump to come up....lol You brought up Trump in a post that had NOTHING to do with him. Why? Mueller went after Trump and his entire family over bogus information. If someone went after my family and threatened to put them in jail for life, I'm sure I'd feel the same way if it was malicious......

Couldn't get the sweep but we got the series dub over that other team. 💪🏾 1st place in the division. On to the all-star break........

Interviews monday and Tuesday.

Astros are currently 2 games back of Texas. Houston is 47-50, Rangers are 48-47.

Semi finals

I usually research my posts before posting them. I didn’t on this one. My apologies.

Lol, per Grok. Like I said we’re still being played. He’s not playing 9D chess like you think so. No, this is not true—it’s sensationalized hype, likely from a clickbait video or post. youtube.com The core claims (a “secret geopolitical chess move” by the US and Oman that stripped Iran of its Hormuz leverage, trapping them with a surrender-or-global-war ultimatum while the world was distracted by “ceasefire headlines”) do not match available reporting. Here’s the actual context as of mid-2026: Background on the Strait of Hormuz situation • The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments. Iran has long claimed significant influence and has threatened or disrupted shipping during tensions. • There was a US-Iran war or major conflict phase earlier in 2026, followed by a fragile memorandum of understanding (MoU)/ceasefire framework in June that aimed to reopen the strait for normal (toll-free) commercial traffic. apnews.com • Tensions flared again recently: Iran (or elements acting in its name) attacked vessels in/near the strait, violating the understanding. The US responded with strikes on Iranian targets, declared the ceasefire “over” (while agreeing to continued talks at Iran’s request), and reinforced naval presence. foxnews.com Trump’s statements and US position Trump has repeatedly stated that the strait must remain open to everyone as international waters, with no single country controlling it. The US has positioned forces to “watch over” it, helped facilitate ship transits (including “Project Freedom” and reported secret operations moving oil), issued sanctions, and set deadlines/ultimatums for Iran to stop attacks on shipping. dw.com This is public rhetoric and policy, not a hidden revelation. Oman’s role Oman (a neutral mediator with ties to both sides) has hosted or facilitated talks. Iranian and Omani officials have discussed “safe passage” mechanisms, bilateral issues, and possible joint arrangements for the strait. There have been proposals involving fees/service charges (which the US opposes for an international waterway) and coordination along Omani routes. aljazeera.com This is diplomatic mediation and bilateral talks, not a secret US-Oman plot to “strip” Iran’s leverage. Shipping has continued with risks, US naval support, and alternative routing emphasis. aljazeera.com The “ultimatum” The US is demanding Iran publicly affirm the strait is open and stop shooting at ships as a condition for de-escalation. Talks continue in Oman. Iran has pushed back, cited errors or factions, and insists on its rights/sovereignty. No credible reports describe Iran as “trapped with nowhere to turn” or facing an all-or-nothing choice that inevitably triggers “devastating all-out global war.” bbc.com Why the claim is misleading • Exaggerated drama: Ceasefire violations, strikes, and talks are ongoing and reported—not a “hidden maneuver” while the world was distracted. • No evidence of a game-changing secret deal: US-Oman coordination exists in the context of mediation and freedom-of-navigation operations. Iran’s leverage is reduced by military pressure and parallel routing, but it retains territorial waters, rhetoric, and some disruption capability. aljazeera.com • Typical clickbait framing: These posts often mix real tensions (Hormuz incidents, Trump statements, Oman talks) with conspiracy-style hype to imply imminent catastrophe or genius 4D chess. Real risks exist—disruptions to energy markets, escalation potential, and fragile diplomacy—but the situation is fluid negotiations backed by military posturing, not a cornered Iran on the brink of world war. Mainstream coverage (from multiple outlets) reflects this without the apocalyptic spin.

Last year, La Porte lost their DC to Shadow Creek. Now, LP’s All District Edge/OLB Caden Watson transferred to Shadow Creek. Was curious why he wasn’t in DCTF mag. Now, I know why.

This feels like an “argument for arguments sake” topic.

Lol

And every kid that has played for him during those 11 state titles has all been from Carthage? No extra Jimmys and Joes... all from Carthage

I agree. I see WO-S winning this one by 3 TD+

Will be a good one for WOS. Game will not be competitive. WOS will be able to name their score.

Awesome staff… doesn’t mean they go to another school and start winning without the jimmys and joes.

So you are saying it's never ever the players when a team loses a game or has a losing season. No matter what it's always on the coaches. Regardless of any situation or circumstance, it will always be the fault of the coaches when a team is not successful. I believe you are stating opinion and not fact. Which is perfectly fine but don't claim it as fact. You posting a coaching record is a fact but doesn't necessarily tell the whole story. I think several folks on here have given you examples of a coach who won a state championship but overall was not very successful. Like you always say, your entitled to your opinion but not your own facts.

Sorry about that... it was not directed at you. I should not have quoted you. That was more or less a post for people who think they know everything about Vidor because they read a stat line or look up some historical data.

There was a Brian Morgan just hired to be OC at Converse Judson but thats a different Brian Morgan haha

With a 6-3 win today coupled with a 6-5 loss by the Mariners, Astros are now 2 games back.

If so, I called it in real life, offline lol

I believe both Vance and Trump have mentioned there are different groups that do not agree with the deal Trump is making with the current leadership. They have also mentioned that communication can take days because the gay leader does not want to give away his position. Taking that in to consideration along with the fact that none of the leadership is willing to go in public, there may be a leadership/communication problem..... So, to me that makes Slim's statement believable.

I didn’t take it that way. Have a good evening.

Yes it's been years since they've been asking about it but I'm glad that it may come to fruition now.

I put both losses on King but that’s just me.

Lindsey Graham truly loved Trump. Strange relationship.

He was never married and had no kids.

Yes sir they are in the district of doom in 12. District 13 in region 4 that we are paired with consists of Bruceville-Eddy, Hearne, Moody, Granger, Marlin, Rosebud-Lott, and thorndale. Don’t know much about any of those teams I know hearne has had decent teams In the past and so has marlin and rosebud Lott but they’ve all been pretty down lately. Definitely a much better chance of getting out of the first round than the district we’ve been getting paired with the last 4 seasons!

Even though Wade hit the GS, Alvarez has been on fire. Peña got hit in the ribs. Hope he’s ok.

Yeah I forgot we in region 4 now …🤣 I’m not used to that ! I’m excited for it …. Cause for the first time in years .. we headed south for the playoffs n not north ! only way we’d see Hemphill would be in a quarterfinal match right ?

Big 8th inning for the home team 💪🏾

News dropped yesterday. Wasn’t quite this late. Happend couple weeks ago.

Wouldn't mind a sweep of that other team starting tonight.

Yes sir !! I remember being at the game that night in lufkin , when kirbyville played them ! ARP had a dang good RB that year! we also played arp my JR year in the 3rd round at SFA! It was a defensive battle … score was 12-6 for a long time …. ARP ended up scoring late in the game to win 20-6 .. those were the few years CC had a ton of speed all over field … we almost beat Newton my JR year as well , lost 24-20 at home …. The whole state championship track team , that set the two state records were on the field for CC .. the good ol days for sure brother !

Just trying to past the final weeks before the season kicks off 🤣

Exactly. A coach needs his players, and his players need a coach. You CANNOT be successful without each other... You CANNOT sustain success without each other.

Yes, they would look different. Would be running a different offense and defense. Does that mean the players all of a sudden become bigger and faster?!?! NOOOOOOOOOO! Does that mean more wins?!?! NOOOOOOOOOO!

Now that one........um........ 🤷🏾‍♂️

Can you tell Trump to lower the Tacoma down to about $28,000 and I’ll buy one! I mean since he has that power. 😁

I was waiting for someone to say it lol

That 2008 playoff game went into 3 OTs.
