    There's two things I would point to: 1) If your child is planning to play in the NCAA they better get used to practicing at 6AM regardless of the temperature. 2) You're going to get more out of your reps, especially the ones later in practice, if you're not getting beat down by the sun. There's a fine line between the benefits of practicing in the heat vs the detriment due to sapped energy levels and attention span.

    Houston with an 11-2 win over Arlington. Astros are now in first place for the first time since April 3rd when they were 5-2. Houston has won 9 of last 10 and are 12 games above .500 (36-24, .600) since May 20.

    10am and we're in the red... "2-hour max practice time. Players are restricted to helmet, shoulder pads, and shorts" Coaches around the state are monitoring their current conditions and will adjust as always. No real threat of missing practice in November December because of this. Hopefully they'll be smart and get the work in early.

    This year feels like the team we had when Goode came and Baker was the starting back and Amante was a freshman. That team was unknown . So yeah imma say more of a reload than rebuild.

  5. Alvarez hasn't hit a home run in 4 games. Probably won't hit one ever again. Hope the Astros can dump him before the trade deadline. Anybody miss somebody?? IYKYK.

  11. Should the UIL require open enrollment schools to play sports in the highest classification? The private schools who elect to play in the UIL are required to play in the highest classification. Houston's Strake Jesuit comes to mind. SJ's enrollment fluctuates between 1,200 and 1,400, but the SJ sports teams must play in 6A. Should the open enrollment schools be treated the same way? Both systems, private education and open enrollment public schools, can cherry pick athletes.

    What's even crazier is that if you're only paying your starters $11M you have little to no chance of even contending for a P4 conference championship in this environment. Indiana was the outlier because a bunch of their team transferred from James Madison with the coach and weren't sought-after NIL guys. I love that the players are getting paid now but it's also kind of disappointing that the influx of money has led to the strip-mining of high end talent from the lesser conferences. Never again will you be able to turn on a MAC game on a random Wednesday night in November and watch a Chad Pennington hook up with Randy Moss in the snow or stay up late watching Derek Carr hook up with Devante Adams at Fresno St. in a WAC game.

  13. No it doesn't, the only player making over $1M on Baylor's roster is DJ Lagway who was a 5* coming out of high school and started two years in the SEC. The only way you get those NIL numbers listed above are to be an elite high school recruit or a big time transfer that produced at your previous stop. A low rated 4* or a 3* is going to have to earn their money once they get to campus. Prior to Baylor signing Lagway this year they signed Walker White from the portal who was a top 5-8 QB in the nation before singing with Auburn out of high school, he's already out the door again on the way to Central Arkansas. I highly doubt he's collected $300k after three years on P4 rosters. Baylor has had three players drafted in the last four years which is basically when the NIL era kicked off, two have been linemen. If you're good enough to make "millions" in the trenches in college you're most likely getting drafted. Outside of a guy Baylor is willing to overpay for in the portal from time to time to get him to Waco nobody they're willing to pay that type of money to would actually stay there because better teams/playoff contenders would pay more.

    Also, this win secures the Silver Boot for the Astros. That makes 10 consecutive years Houston has won the Silver Boot. A friend of mine asked, "Is this even a rivalry anymore?"

    Poor Dezenzo, with a position player pitching for the Rangers and the bases loaded, they pinch hit him for Alvarez and he got booed. Of course the boos were for the substitution, not the player. That had to be tough.

    We cant compare games to practice...games are much easier and less strenuous than practice....I was told by an AT that 95% of heat related issues take place during practice. Games have built in breaks much moreso than practice If we are talking about varsity football games start in the evening....WGBT won't be an issue at 7pm if its an issue for freshman/JV games then push start time back a bit or play Sat AM the hand wringing is typical anytime something new happens...coaches will adapt and adjust just fine

    I say pitching because that’s what the game is all about. We have plenty of fire power, they just forget to show up some games. Hard to believe Imai was part of the combined no-hitter. I went to bed on them too. Had to get up early. Them west coast games are tough. Lol

    Tatsuya Imai has to go. He has failed to get out of the FIRST inning in three of his 15 starts this season and has thrown fewer than five innings eight times. This information is courtesy of Chandler Rome who I follow on the X (old twitter) platform. The Stone Cold Astros podcast believes Dana Brown is a lame duck. The Astros will let him ride out this season, the last year of his contract. If the Astros make a deadline trade, supposedly Brown wants a bat. Espada is asking for starting pitching. Which one will win that tug-of-war?

    The worst thing Massie has done was force Trump to sign off on the Epstein Transparency Act which became law. Ever since then Trump has been butthurt. Massie has voted with Trump 91% of the time. He just doesn’t worship his party, he listens to his constituents and his votes show it. lol

    Trump wasn’t President. Biden was and I didn’t vote for Biden. Since you brought it up didn’t Trump say he would end the Ukraine War within 24 hours of being elected? ….well time is ticking, he’s been President for a year and a half. News flash….,there is still an Ukraine War and Trump has been sending money to a war that he said would have never started if he had been president. Smh

  45. They're getting ballot access under the Democratic Party. If the Democratic Party didn't want them using their rules and primaries for ballot access, they should stop them from doing so. If not--and since they aren't--they're part of the Democrat Party. No different than Libertarians under the Republican banner. It's not a lie. You need to wake up and see what's happening to your Party. If you don't like the source attached, you can find one of your own choosing. They readily admit they're using the Democrat Party for access, and the quotes and proof is all over the place in every type of media. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]

  47. The Epstein Files Transparency Act (H.R. 4405 / Pub. L. 119-38) is a federal law signed into law by President Donald Trump on November 19, 2025. It mandates that the Department of Justice (DOJ) publish all unclassified records, investigative materials, flight logs, and travel records related to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell in a searchable format.
