That 2017 Silsbee team was crazy deep. A total of 11 players off that team went on to play the next level in either football or basketball. Not bad for a little ole small town 4A team.

One of the things I’m not proud of is the wokeness of Austin. It’s a disease. Still a Longhorn fan. Hopefully this disease hasn’t infected any other campuses. For my Longhorn’s WS run, I believe we have a good shot at the title if we get past Georgia. That series with Miss St. had to have set some records for scoring and HRs.

It’s over. 35 years

They have to (and certainly will) find a point of appeal where Anthony didn’t receive a fair trial because __________(fill in the blank). The Black women who were struck by the prosecution, faulty jury instructions, jury misconduct, evidence allowed that should have been excluded, etc.

I'll never understand the amount of time and energy people put into talking, debating, and arguing about politics, as if politicians truly have our best interests in mind. One day, people will realize that it doesn't matter whether you're Republican, Democrat, liberal, conservative, white, Black, brown, or anything else. At the end of the day, none of these politicians—from the local level all the way to the president—don't have the public's best interests at heart.

I think it will come down to the economy. Blame may be part of it. There is a saying that all politics are local. That is probably not 100% true, but there is certainly a lot of truth in it. An example is that Nancy Pelosi in some polls has shown to be the most unpopular politician in America, yet the Democrats had her as the Speaker. The country haters her but unlike the president, she is not on the national ballot. She is only from one district in San Francisco and she wins there by landslide. Politics is local. The national news media can talk about good times or bad times but people tend to vote on what is happening in their area. Politics is local. To expand on that, the Democrats are notorious for shooting themselves in the foot with their issues and campaign strategies. They choose hills to die on like taking away firearms, having schools teach and facilitate gender change without parental consent or knowledge, throwing the borders open, etc.Nationally some of that may play well but does it play well in southeast Texas or northwest Missouri? So if the economy is down or there is some other major issue going on and the Democrats give up on their identity politics, they have a good shot at the presidency. Hopefully they will hold to their strategy like the movie Idiocracy. If it seems utterly ridiculous, do it!

6 pitches….2 HRs

You brought up being a lame duck president.

Unless there is a super majority in both houses, everyone is a lame duck. In Obama’s two terms, he lost majority control over Congress for the entire last 6 years of his presidency with a split Congress. For the last 2 years the Republicans held both houses. Were you concerned about the term lame duck for the last 6 years of the Obama administration? OMG… a lame duck!! 🤣🤣🤣

The series win vs cleveland is the 3rd in a row. Friday W 3-2 Saturday L 0-6 Sunday W 10-0 On the road for a mid-week series in kansas city. Season Record: 32-33

What you fail to realize when those other players was a BU they had the Hancock brothers and there helping develop the kid and the current coaching staff don’t have time to help the kids cause all are up in age and they wanna go home and not stay and let the kids work Coleman was the only one willing to stay but he also stay in Houston so he wasn’t able to stay every and Wes was about to go prep but Hancock came back that’s the only reason Wes stayed

They had enough talent to win a championship, no question. But you only get there when you develop every player, from the starters to the last man on the bench — mentally, skill‑wise, and with real structure. The days of rolling the ball out and hoping they figure it out are over. They also needed someone younger on staff who could keep the gym open, rebound for guys, and help them get that extra work in. That matters. And honestly, that’s probably part of why some players decided to leave. Still, I wish those kids nothing but success. Never let anyone tell you there’s only one way to reach your goals. Carve your own path and stand on it with confidence.

It’s nothing to move apartments across cities in the Dallas and Houston areas

Late spring early summer. Got it!

So we have apparently drug this out for the dollar? I have trouble trusting the process.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the annual inflation rate surged to 4.2% in May, up from 3.8% in April. The Golden Era is Here!

Interesting…

So no chance of appeal unless they can find fault in system, correct?

After the 4th stab wound, then, and only then can it be considered murder.

All hell will break loose by the end of the day

Murder one! As they say in the movies.

Guilty of murder.... according to KHOU11

It appears that the verdict took less than 3 hours of deliberation, whatever that means.

Incoming freshman class looked pretty good at the Kountze Summer League. There's of course still plenty of rough edges, but they handled business. Good news is the one kid I was worried about leaving to play elsewhere appears to be staying put.

I have not been able to watch anything, but I from what I remember: --He brought a knife to a track meet. --He went and sat under another teams tent. --Refused to leave when asked to leave. Is this accurate to what has been going on with the case?

That's a good question. We will have to wait and see.

Off of TexasForever’s initial topic. But, good discussion. Grew up on the farm. THAT was work! lol I also initially went to college on a scholly, became disillusioned, and joined the Navy. I’ve spoken about some of that experience. When I got out, I was hired on at a local petrochemical as a ‘B’ operator partly because of being a vet, was encouraged to go back to school while working, and got an AAS in Engineering Design. From there, I got my Mechanical and went to work contract at multiple firms. Got my PMP, and led projects for years. Got tired of working 80’s for straight pay, went back to school for my BSBM, and was asked to join Sales. I finished up as lead Downstream BD for Mustang/Wood Group, Fluor, Jacobs and a couple smaller outfits before calling it quits to take care of family. Better 1/2 was an Aggie ChemE, and son is a Nuclear Engineer.

I graduated high school wasted a couple of years going to Lamar cause I had NO idea what I wanted to do.... so, I started framing houses and then worked for North Star Steel. Both of those jobs had me back at Lamar pretty quick lol.

Lamar is extremely affordable when you start looking at other universities in Texas that have good/great engineering program and no not many international students when I was at LU... at least not in the industrial engineering program. For what it's worth, I think that if you are majoring in engineering, you should have at least 5 years of work experience before being able to graduate. That way you have some real world work experience to go along with the book(s).

I work with a bunch of engineers that graduated from LU. When I was at LU (late 90s/early 2000s) most of my classmates (industrial engineering major) where from the US.

Biden was asleep when he was a wake. Huge difference.

The pitching hasn’t been very good over the last couple months,the team as a whole seems to be getting hotter at the right time.If they sweep Oregon you talk about some momentum! 🤘🤘

Alvarez spoiled Morris’ debut…….Grand Slam.

Nice catch

Tony would be so pumped

Sure is nice to have a closer again. Paredes with 4 RBIs.

Umbrella dance off!🤣🤣

No one is right or wrong. Like it or not.... We're all in this mess together and the only way to get out of this mess is to come together. Stop giving politicians what they want. Stop giving into the chaos. Stop giving into the he said, she said.

Well pitching failed us again but hitting was so so lost 5-1 that's baseball I guess. New catcher Price was 0-4 looked weak swinging.

I know what I wrote. I can read and write.... and the double negative that can be taken literally...meaning... NONE OF THESE POLITICANS HAVE OUR BEST INTEREST.

I meant what I said... Too many people believe (live and die) on every word politicians say. Politicians do not have our best interest in mind. Politicians want chaos and division. Politicians do not want unity. A unified America... "We The People" would be a nightmare for politicians. The only people politicians care about are the ones with the most ZEROS. The ones that contribute the most and the ones that can help get their agenda(s) passed.

Solid debut

Well, Peyton Jones will be transferring from United to play at Dynamic Prep. That's three different schools in three years. SMH

I get carried away sometimes.

I wonder what @BMTSoulja1 has to say about this? BTW, that one in serious condition died. 17 year old.
