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.3 points -

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 20.3 points -

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.3 points -

Transfers and high school sports
AggiesAreWe and one other reacted to 1989NDN for a topic
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.2 points -

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.2 points -

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?"2 points -
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.2 points

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 fine2 points -

3-2 win for Houston. Astros remain 2 games back of Arlington for division lead. Houston has won 7 of last 8.2 points -
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. Lol2 points

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?2 points -

If you and your family haven't grown up/lived in a community your whole life, are you actually beholden to the name on the front of the jersey though? When I was young my family lived in Trinity Gardens in NE Houston in what is now North Forest's attendance zone. Imagine being a life long resident of that community in today's time and having North Shore, CE King and Summer Creek who are all open enrollment football powerhouses 10 mins away. If your kid was any good you'd basically be doing them a disservice by keeping them there simply for "loyalty" purposes. It 100% matters where you play today1 point -

Trump Effect
thetragichippy reacted to OlDawg for a topic
I think he went in with the noblest of intentions. Whether convinced by outside intel or not is irrelevant. He made the choice. My firm belief is he thought Iran would fold, and collapse early on. He didn't understand the regime, and has recently admitted as much when he backtracked on thinking he could negotiate with them, and called them crazy. He should have known all along. But, many Western minds just don't get it. They can't tie the religious zealot mind to something they can comprehend. Yes. I believe he feels it needs to be done. But, not for altruistic reasons, or even National Security. Now, it's his pride, arrogance, and legacy. He doesn't want the black mark. He wants to be remembered as the POTUS who stopped the terrorist regime and proxies in the Middle East, and this isn't looking good for him. All politicians have egos. His is one of--if not the--biggest I can recall in my 60+ years. He can't stop now. That being said, round up the C-130's, their escorts & about 4 MOABs, and let it rain. Then, decide if a tactical ground assault in key, specific areas is still required. Stop with the pinpoint pricks that cost over $1MM a pop. Bury an area with a $250k munition that will make them think Allah has arrived as they desire. Guarantee if 4 or 5 MOABs shook the country almost simultaneously, it might be a wake-up, come to Allah moment. At least, there wouldn't be much for the IRGC to recover and reconstitute.1 point -

D1 Quarter Backs

There are 1200 to 1500 D1QB’s actively committed in high school each year. Div. 1 usually carry 3to4 QB’s on their roster. Just because a kid gets an offer from Baylor does not mean he will be a millionaire like some people believe. Nothing is definite until he gets that offer in writing.1 point
