CB is all about reaction. Loves shooting into hornets nests. Trolling is what he does the best. Been that way on this site for years.

I was there. Hillin wasn’t “escorted off the field.” Was there a Buna ISD officer there, yes, but just to make sure he left the field after the ejection. It’s normal procedure when things like that happen. Hillin left immediately after he was ejected without issue.

Good news: Both F-15 pilots are rescued and SAFE! [Hidden Content]

Back in those days, to load the grain ship, she had to be maneuvered back and forth to level out the grain. The bow and stern mooring lines had to be loosened and tightened to move the ship to and fro. I had nothing to do with their mooring as Continental Grain Elevator was separate from Mobil, but they were next door and we were able to watch. They probably have better loading procedures today, but that’s how it was done in the olden days. Lol. Some of the smaller tankers that were not Mobil owned, had much smaller mooring lines. Their ropes were about 2” diameter and we called them “kite stringers”. Some ships had bow thrusters and were able to dock using just one tug. Bow thruster was a propeller located in the bow that moved the ship port or starboard. Only dealt with one of those. Mobil ships had 4” ropes for mooring. On the bow and stern, the ropes were accompanied with 1” cables. Had a special hook for the cables called pelican hooks. The ropes went in a simple hook because we were able to lift the rope out of the hook to sail. The pelican hook was specially designed to handle the weight of the cable and a release that would allow disengagement. All mobil ships coming in to dock had to pass up the docks and enter the turning basin where the tugs would turn the ship around before mooring so that she was heading out after loading. All ship traffic was not necessarily hauling in crude. Some were sailing in to load heating oil for up north. That was a regular trip. Had a ship named the Grigerosa which brought in Mexican crude. You could smell her before she rounded the bend……high sulphur content. I could go on but I’m sure this is boring to some. I think you have a great knowledge of the refining part. I picked up a little along the way. I was in my 20s when this took place.

I might make it over there. My older brother did 26 years in the Navy and lives in Richmond. I am sure that he will take part. I wish the Battleship Texas was back open to the public but it still has a few months before the final berth is ready in Galveston.

Community support.

Y'all?? I don't get in back and forth with CB. I do call him out from time to time when he makes inaccurate posts or falsehoods.

I heard from a very reliable source that Trump is coming after Trumper haters on small social platforms across America starting with SETXSPORTS Political Forum starting Monday. I believe you and CB’s name was mentioned.

Our military leaked information to draw Iranians AWAY from the airman, then attacked them while the rescue team rescued the airman at the correct location, without one UD casualty. That is pretty impression and will go down in the history books😎 I’m not 100% sure, but I believe they called that mission Hook, Line and Sinker. Of true, that is 😂

Astros lead MLB with runs scored (60) Lead in many offensive categories in the AL.

No, sir. Trump admits that there was massive fraud, hence the need for the SAVE Act. Y’all cheated, Trump and the republicans confessed every time they claim that election integrity is a problem, they’re admitting that they didn’t actually win.

Schedules usually don't get updated until August.

Before Barbers Hill and Huffman came in it was Madisonville. Coldspring, Cleveland, and Madisonville were the ones making it out then.

Listening to Brown-Jackson’s logic is hard on the brain. You know, if she was in Japan and stole a wallet then the Japanese police would arrest her but if she had her wallet stolen in Japan, she would expect the police to arrest whoever did it. That’s why we need birthright citizenship. 🤣🤣🤣 I guess when you can’t define what a woman is, that’s about as deep as a person can think.

Miss the good ole days of Coldspring, Shepherd, Splendora, Cleveland, Tarkington, and Liberty all being 3A and in the same District.

Believe whatever you want to believe. Newton would beat the brakes of Yoakum.

If offered, I would accept. Fully knowing that I’ll be fired shortly, branded a traitor, and ridiculed by the Trump supporters. But it would all be worth it because for a brief minute when Trump announced my hiring, y'all would all love me.

Just be proud of those 1,000 imaginary EV chargers you helped build to help with your fuel costs.

They didn’t specifically mention the presidency but Sauer in his arguments stated that by 2015 there were like 200 or 500 (I don’t remember the numbers) companies in China whose business it is to send women to the US to have babies and then bring them back to China to be raised by their laws and culture. Then they could return later as they were US citizens at birth. One is the follow up questions for his was something like, is there any evidence of that happening or any numbers of people returning or something to that effect. My follow up might have been, it’s only 11 years since 2015. No one born around then is an adult yet.

It appears to be Donald Hubbard. 15-15 at Shepherd

At one time this site was the only place to get local scores updated in real time. We had threads for every game with great fans that updated every inning and some every batter. Now every team has GameChanger that anyone with a cell phone can pull up any game live. No other sport has this, thus they need this message board for updates. I did see one local varsity GC get shut off because the parent that was scoring for the team gave Little Jonny an error. His parents ran to the school board and said it was a hit. Maybe that team still needs this site…..

Y’all should start a separate Scripture/Beliefs discussion thread.

Attorneys for Rep. Eric Swalwell demanded in a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel that the bureau refrain from releasing decade-old investigative files involving the congressman’s purported ties to a suspected Chinese intelligence operative. He was pushing for the Epstein files screaming transparency, he changed his tune pretty quick…..lol [Hidden Content]

We like to call those the "Good ole days".

Well, of course there's the dying and the injured - the casualties.

Nice first start of the year for McCullers. 7 IP, 1 run, 4 hits, 9 K's, BB on 95 pitches.

I’ve always wondered why it’s just Shirley who uncovered this and why there aren’t a million copy-cats uncovering more fraud, even if only for YouTube hits. Everyone should be concerned about this fraud. I mean, it’s all of our money and I hate thieves.

We don't have Kelly on the schedule this time. It's Liberty, Shepherd, Crockett and Kountze and me personally I only see wins against Tarkington, Kountze and Buna (although I agree with you about the Cougars they should have beaten us last season).

Astros winning 11-0 in the 8th and subbing. No need to post today. They’re not losing.

Strictly talking about getting schedules posted here. It's always safe to wait till August to update our schedules here due to changes being made now through July. Also, lot's of schools don't put their schedules for next season on their school website until this school year is over. Bigdog will have all our coverage area team schedules posted before the first scrimmage week.

Well, in your head. In your head you think Barron is an anchor baby😄

Trump!

You bringing up Pete said it all. and No, you don't support the troops correctly. I would only ay I hope the rescue teams gets them home safe.

So you’re saying that Trump created Covid virus? Let me guess he was secretly working in the bio lab to create it so he could destroy his own presidency. Lol. He handled it the best he could but was too stupid and narcissistic to admit he got played. The massive voting fraud is real, that’s why we have the idiots that we have in office. No evidence was ever allowed to be presented in any of the cases brought forth. Judges say they didn’t have standing. Lol Until we have fair elections nothing will change and this country will eventually destroy itself. The End

Mann this been posted plenty times... u were crickets Now it matters.. Definitely in a cult

Oh the irony of this post

Better marketing to add a surcharge clause. Grab a blank contract template from one of the big boys. I’m sure they have the clause in their contracts. Just copy it, and add it to your contracts. Then, you can tell your customers you’re holding prices, but you have to add the surcharge because of current fuel costs. Easier on you and contract negotiations, and makes you seem like you’re willing to be helpful when most are in a bind. But, you still maintain your profit margin, and may even come out ahead without ‘raising prices’ if you set the surcharge with enough of a margin. Again…just me.

They came very close to hitting Pena in the ribs also

But but hypocrisy! 😏

I paid 3.29 today in Silsbee.

4-1 and guaranteed to start the season with two road series wins. I'll take it. Hopefully Evo can get it together today and take them to 5-1

This is unacceptable. It causes you to look at the positive side of things.

If marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman, let’s outlaw divorces. If someone has been divorced and remarried, they’re just as biblically wrong as if they’d married another dude…. And should NEVER speak on someone else’s right to marry since they broke their own vows and have dishonored themselves and God. It’s adultery.

Lost for words. LOL

Brother… I just ask for consistency. I’m opposed to murder. I believe that abortion is immoral and wrong, and I believe that capital punishment is immoral, too. I believe that the only acceptable reason to take a human life is in defense of one’s own. But it’s a little disingenuous to be opposed to murder in one situation but support it in the other. Kinda like when someone says that marriage is between one and one woman, but have a couple of divorces in their past. I guess that they meant one woman and one man at a time.

A convincing win like this keeps the downers away.

I’m cool with not allowing illegals to vote! As should any true American!

Plus the rod, the reel, tackle box, fish finder, and trolling motor, too… he’s all in.

1) its about keeping your word, if someone asks you to do something and you agree...be a man of your word...a great man once said "A man's gotta have a code" 2) We are dealing with HS kids, my code is allow the adult who works with these kids to tell the kids himself the news...the kids deserve to hear it from the adults who made the decision. 3) It's about building relationships, in this case I could have easily broken the news last week, but I'd burn a Coach...and coaches talk..."Can't trust Stepp, he doesnt keep his word" then I won't break anything....take the L here to break ten more stories later..chess not checkers
