The middle class shrinking is one of the biggest myths out there, and is used as a way for the government to intervene even more than it already does. This is only one study of many. Yes, the Middle Class Is Shrinking—Because It's Moving Up The real squeeze comes from government-distorted markets, not economic decline.

Eh 5 different schools in 5 years is more uncommon to say the least lol even for a coach

I have zero problem with HI moving from UIL to TCAL. Got to do what's best. Also, HI has really no reason to consolidate with any other ISD. They operate in the black and just passed a bond to improve facilities on all fronts. Are they experiencing growth problems? Yes. But there are many school districts existing in the state of Texas that have fewer students than HI. It certainly isn't necessary to participate in UIL for a school to exist. High Island ISD has it's purpose for it's own community. That's all that matters.

Welp. So much for that. What a waste of bandwidth.

Pending eligibility of course

The Bruins went 4-0 today at the Dickinson State Qualifier

What happens next? Hopefully the GOP finds their balls, employs the nuclear option and passes the SAVE act before your commie friends take over (i.e. steal another election) and pack the supreme court, end the electoral college, add Puerto Rico and DC as states, and enact permanent democratic control all while pointing to the other side shouting "threat to democracy".

Brookeland defeats Avery in one game series 17-0 Brookeland advances to state semi-final for second year in a row.

That's 2 series in a row!!! One more is called a series winning streak. It has happened before. Monday L 0-1 Tuesday W 7-4 Wednesday W 6-5 Road trip weekend to houston to take on the astros.

The dems are always going to vote dem. But I always find it fascinating when the "concerned moderates" and "Never Trumpers" that "allegedly" have traditionally voted R, happily pull the lever for D. The Biden presidency was a complete disaster and a stain on our nation's history. Kamala said she'd "change nothing" about it so a vote for Kamala was effectively just an extension of the Biden embarrassment. The only explanation I can come up with for a traditional R to vote D, is that their brain has been broken by TDS and their soul corrupted with hate for the guy. I'm not getting everything I voted for (and none of us ever will), but I'm getting a lot of it. And it's infinitely better than if Kamala was in charge.

Trump loves him some Trump. Father Time will eventually take are of his narcissism. He’s usually instinctual when it comes to making decisions but I think he went against his instincts on the Iran situation imo. Now he can’t find an exit ramp. I’ve worn weary of his antics. Meanwhile average Americans are feeling the financial pain.

His dad posted today he was ineligible and they were going back to Arkansas

Remember that one time... when fans were on here talking about how he needed to be fired? Good times.

Well this issue goes all the way back to covid, with several factors at play. 1, Declining enrollment and no new people moving in the district because all new houses being built are air bnbs 2, This was a projected problem with the hopes that move ins would come the the district, but at this point until "the ike group" gets thru you still have those low numbers because those kids never came back. (only 4 graduating seniors this year. 3. The strongest athletic group is in 6th grade so numbers will rise again, and a new school building with a gym ect will help. Also in the next year or two new football stadium and softball/baseball fields will attract kids to come play, hopefully. Hope this helps y'all, Also the jump to t-cal will be done in two year cycles and reevaluated.

WooHoo, we won the series vs the Cubbies!!! Friday L 1-7 Saturday W 6-0 Sunday W 3-0 The diamondbacks are coming to Arlington Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Season record: 19-21

I was disappointed in the Brooks’ firing because I like the man a lot and thought he had earned at least another year. Having said that, Jeff hasn’t whiffed on a hire yet and has gotten in the weeds to find some. I would expect this one to be no different.

reminds me of the Trumpers and anti-Trumpers on this site.

The were estimates weeks or months from development….. I know Democrats think people have to be shot at before they can shoot back. Only a fool would wait until they fired the nuke before we fired back and addressed it.

I have been wondering if we would get a Lamar softball post this year. If only they would have gotten rid of the coach!

Trump said China will be sending oil tankers to Texas, Louisiana and Alaska to buy oil. Also said they are going to purchase 200 passenger jets. Will also need 400 jet engines from GE. And said will be purchasing a massive amount of soy beans and farm equipment. Looks like wins for America to me!

And Walker stretch catch of off throw at first for third out. Shewmake impresses me btw.

Astros pitching was awesome tonight. Arighetti with a no-no in 7.1 innings. Dezenzo with a fantastic catch in left field. Paredes with a solo shot.

Life as a coach's son.

Wow! If there is a game three, pitching depth could be a factor?

I wouldn’t want to be poor. Worked too hard to get a little bit ahead. But, some people today think being poor is a little different than I recall when I was growing up literally dirt poor. Not sure ‘poor’ is still having a $1000 cell phone, expensive sneakers, PlayStations and similar, and at least one big screen tv with some type of streaming service.

Wait until some people google what TCAL stands for. One political party will freak out about a public school joining it. Fortunately for HI, I assume the community supports it!

What colleges do is not relevant to high school performance. I could give you a list of players holding D1 offers that are borderline pathetic.

thats not true. in fact because of robinhood they give money back to the state. they have high dollar beach homes and some oil that they are very self sustainable. the improvement on the buildings and modernizing is their only issue which they are correcting. you are misinformed and your simple google searches arent helping.

I'll agree to disagree with you on that one. 50% of the country hates him and another 25% doesn't like him. He hasn't changed his behavior in any meaningful way to address that. If we get killed on the midterms he'll just blame the voters or cheating or whatever else.

Yup… that there was no way that the talent level had dropped and it was 100% on the head coach that they weren’t winning like they should.

High Island must want their own school in their community, and having sports doesn't sound like as big of a priority.

Dubón could be Atlanta’s MVP. Astros are notorious for trading their top talent hoping for something better when they already have it.

Excellent!

Alvarez in a bit of a slump right now but nothing like Seattle's Raleigh. Last year's MVP is now 0/37 in his last 39 plate appearances. Batting .157 on the season. Wow, what a difference a year makes. I thought Lambert pitched well last night. 7 innings pitched, 6 hits, 3 ER's, 8 K's, 1 BB. He has been Houston's best starter this season. Team best 2.76 ERA with 29 innings pitched, 29 K's, 12 BB's. Astros offense has taken a little dive over the last few games but the pitching has improved somewhat. Team batting average has dropped from .269 to .258 but team ERA has dropped from 6.37 to 5.50. Batting average is still top 3 in MLB but ERA is still the worse in MLB.

No, it’s not… according to you it is, but that’s because your side is trampling everybody else. The fact that patriots have tried three times now to eliminate the greatest threat that America has had in 250 years says that everything isn’t “doing just fine,” and if the Dems were doing the exact same things, you wouldn’t feel like things were going peachy. There will be an equal and opposite reaction, and it will be a bitter pill for people who think that taking a massive dump on half of America is okay.

Well, now, lookie here!!

Reagan is this true? Please tell me you didn’t buy one of these phones. lol

Should have kept Dubón. Correa (even though he is now hurt) is not a leadoff batter, Alvarez should bat 3rd. Now we have rumors of trading Alvarez.

Maybe this is interesting or maybe it’s not, but…. Texas law does not distinguish between a principal and an accomplice or accessory in a crime like in some (majority?) states. In some states a person can be charged as an accessory/accomplice to a crime. In other words, the accessory isn’t the main actor (criminal). Maybe a getaway driver in a bank robbery is an accessory. The driver never entered the bank, never pointed a gun, never threatened anyone, etc., so he may have a reduced penalty. Where an armed robber might be facing 50 years maximum in prison, the driver (accessory) might be facing only up to 20 years maximum. Texas makes no such distinction. If you took part in the crime, you are charged with the same crime with the same penalty range. Going only by news reports it seems like that Texas law may have resulted in the arrest of the guy who was later released. It seems like shots were fired from a car or someone jumped into a nearby car and fled. If two people were identified by witnesses as being in the vehicle, it might likely lead to having probable cause to make an arrest for both as taking part either as a shooter or driver. I am going to guess that this may have been what happened to the player that AAW was referring to with the scholarship. Maybe he was thought to be driving the vehicle that fled or was in the vehicle when shots were fired OR was merely nearby and a witness thought that the he was seen in or getting into a car. According to a statement by BPD, after the scholarship player was arrested, further information later led them to dropping the arrest. Again just guessing, the believed to be shooter apparently admitted to both driving away and firing shots. Since he may have taken responsibility for the entire situation, that may have led to the dismissing the arrest in the scholarship player. But now is another arrest or warrant? This may be where the Texas law of no accessories might come into play. Did this third guy help the shooter get away from the scene? Did he hand the shooter the gun? L Anyway, all of this is just speculation but I thought maybe Texas law might be interesting in the justification for an arrest and later charges being accepted by the DA (requiring a grand jury indictment if a felony) or the dropping of charges against any person.

And you probably thought he was serious when he made the comment about drinking bleach to kill Covid. Sure wish some Dem lawmakers would have taken that advice! Some of you cannot distinguish between reality and sarcasm.

Maybe you should reevaluate your thought process. You want to speak about “King” when Democrats have been getting slapped down in the Supreme courts for unconstitutional gerrymandering? Someone has to have a bad case of something to think that the hundreds of folks that planned the Iran mission did so to “distract” from the Epstein files. The files that no one with any credibility has said Trump is involved. My first question would be how does the war distract from the files? You have not forgot about them. My second question is what are you going to complain about when the mission is over and we get a deal? PS: mid terms because of the unconstitutional Democrats and states have just put Republicans in play to keep the house and possibly gain seats……thank you

Amazes me that MAGA after all the lies still worship this idle wanna be king. He was trying to distract Americas attention from the files. Are we in a war? Did we win? Is the strait open? Do we even have allies?

At the end of the day it’s what people are feeling in their pocket book and i don’t mean the wealthy. I mean average Americans.

IMO, this is the greatest post ever made down here in this political forum. So much so that this thread probably should be pinned up top of the forum so it won't be pushed down the page. The best perspective ever posted down here which is so refreshing considering some of these other posts being made that I consider complete garbage. Thank you sir for this post. Very much appreciated.

I spoke with Harold earlier today. He believes that KLVI will continue to do Nederland football and Lamar athletic broadcasts and he will contract out for them. He is just no longer a full time employee with IHeart/KLVI. He isn't 100% certain of this but believes it will happen.
