  1. 👍🏼 I did a simple Google search of how many people are killed every year by medical malpractice in the US. The answer was 250,000 to 440,000. I asked how many people every year were killed by the police and it was about 1,300. So the average person is more than 300 times more likely (30,000%) to be killed by a doctor or nurse than the police. Also note that nearly anyone can be killed by medical malpractice but the number of people who come into dangerous confrontations with the police are extremely limited. The situation is almost always initiated by a criminal suspect, not the police. So for the average citizen he/she is probably 500 times more likely a person dies at the hands of a doctor than the police (and most are justified unlike medical malpractice) yet do the medical professions get disparaged because of those statistics?

  2. It's a crying shame that we/us as a nation, live and die on every word one man says. What happened to loving your neighbor, minding your own business, and living life?? All I see now is EVERYONE fighting about this and that... Does it really matter that much? NOOOO! Turn off the damn news and go on about your business. Tell someone with different beliefs hi and go on. Life is too damn short to be fighting/arguing all the time! FYI... NO one is right when it comes to fighting/arguing and trying to prove a point. **I voted for President Trump (both times).

  5. Still being researched, we don't know if it was poor decision or right decision. All I know is when the lights come on behind me, I pullover and turn my vehicle off, roll my windows down, take my wallet out and put my hands on the wheel....... If I get shot, it will be so obvious it was the cops fault, there will be no need for research.

  6. Probably not fair to judge the whole ICE program by a couple of poor officer decisions. Just like cops, a couple of poor decisions doesn’t make the police bad.

  7. Oh the outrage!!! Lower a flag? How about just standing up...which is what the entire dem side of congress couldn't do for a young black boy suffering from brain cancer (State of the Union)...or mothers of the women who were raped and murdered by illegals. You're talking about 1 man lowering a flag when your entire party can't even muster enough integrity to stand.. LOL at the selective outrage!

    It's A Crying Shame

    To be quite honest, I don't hate are have i’ll feelings toward anyone on the board. Truth be told I have a good friend on here who we disagree a lot about on the forum. When we are off this forum we check on each other. I don't take it personal neither does he or Regan. We're retired and just sitting under the palmetto tree talking trash. I am just a cloud with no rain passing time. I agree with mat.

  11. I didn’t listen to the entire show but the part I did listen to they didn’t mention Port Arthur. Port Arthur is the King of this district until someone kicks them off their throne. They said Laporte made a run last year. That run was into the Bi-District round. No disrespect to Laporte. Just repeating what those uninformed individuals said. They also each have a love affair with Lufkin for some reason. Maybe I am off my meds with these predictions but here are mine: 1. PAM 2. Laporte 3. Beaumont Westbrook 4. New Caney 5. Beaumont United 6. Lufkin 7. Goose Creek Memorial 8. Baytown Sterling 9. Galveston Ball

  20. The theory cant work for any team. Channelview improving slightly wont help NS. But NS playing at a high level has definitely elevated SC and CEK. What is unique about Jasper is the tradition of success. Crumedy went 4 rounds deep into December just 3 years ago. 2018 we met them at Lamar in the 3rd round. We all know the expectations with the new staff in place. This will be a major improvement over the next few years.

  21. Where is the evidence Mueller threatened to put anyone in jail for life? I just can’t fathom the idea of wishing the death of another human. If someone maliciously threatened my family illegally I would want them prosecuted to the full extent of the law. But dead? That goes against my Christian beliefs.

If someone went after my family and threatened to put them in jail for life, I'm sure I'd feel the same way if it was malicious......

    2026 Astros

    The Astros need to win 60% of their remaining games to finish with 84 wins. That might give them a shot at a playoff spot. They will have about 50 games left at the trade deadline. If they are sitting with a win % around where they presently stand we could see a few guys moved. Wait, see, hope, complain, etc.

  38. First, I understand your general interest. WV had a great run, he was their QB, and he and his family are high profile. That said, keep in mind BH has been deemed "no longer in SETX coverage" due to its new district, and that's OK. In turn, BH just won't have the same coverage and number of posters and info here in the future. BH news and discussion will likely be quite limited ahead. I know some BH posters simply lost interest here and moved on, while some others just got tired of all the BH bashing and misinformation allowed. They had their fill of it and didn't need that BS anymore. They are gone. The bottom line is, the news that Babin has left WV is all that's really pertinent to SETX. Where he ends up (out of SETX coverage) is incidental. Again, I do understand your general curiosity. We will all know for sure pretty soon. Its just a few weeks away. That's just "my 2 cents", nothing more.

    9-4A D1

    I beg to differ. I graduated from Vidor in the 90s. I was in school and played when Vidor had the pleasure of playing North Shore, WB, Central, LaPorte, the Baytown schools, etc... and we did not avoid the program. The sidelines were packed with players. We looked forward to two-a-days, we looked forward to Friday night lights. Also, had the pleasure of playing for Vidor in its first year in 4A (20-4A). Again, the sidelines were packed with players. Never mattered to us if we went 0-10 or 5-5... we packed the sidelines with players. So, to me the decline in players is due to current coaching. Players want something new. They are tired of the same old offense. They want to be able to throw and catch. They want to be excited. The late, great Dan Hooks once said... You'll know when you're done playing Vidor because they'll hit you in the mouth for 48 minutes.... That was said back in the 90s.

  42. Well this isn't rocket science. Nor chemical cooking neither. But its easy to understand when the level of competition has grown so will the teams they compete against. Some teams schedule tough pre-district to help prepare. Do u think your team would be better if they played down or punched up?

    You don’t even realize the idiocy of your logic. If Democrats were cheating they would be the ones in power. That and the fact Trump is 0-11 in the courts trying to prove it. It is an insidious lie.

  45. We do have the internet. Why don’t you find a statement by another president in the public record and prove me wrong? There are public records of many sorts dating all the way back to 1789. I looked and I couldn’t find one. Unless you can my statement stands as fact.

  47. Yes I have spent over a year building a collection of data on start up costs. New school opens in January. Once we are fully operational there our district will be able to analyze the costs with our budget. The toughest part starting a football program is the start up costs as even when we start Jh only first we still have to buy all the start up equipment for the field to host games etc. I am 100% trying to make this happen. We have 3 coaches total on staff with varsity assistant football coaching experience including myself but yes we will be bringing in more coaches. we are open enrollment and always have been in my ten years here (not sure how long it’s been that way but before my time for sure). The biggest benefit to us adding football will be keeping kids in district. I’ve lost many talented players to neighboring districts because we don’t have football. We have a super strict policy when the district lets kids in based on their test scores, grades and discipline. That stuff won’t change. I want to add football as soon as we can and working hard on it. The community is young enough now that the majority want it as well for their kids. We saw just from the few sports we added in soccer, golf and wrestling the increase in our athletic department numbers which is a great first step to what we want. I hope Coldspring finds a good AD, they have some amazing kids and lots of talent for all sports that they should bounce back very soon especially with what they have in JH currently.

  48. Marlin was way down last year I think they went 2-8 or 1-9 but could have just been young I don’t know much about them. Outside of them and hearne im unfamiliar with everyone in that district should be interesting and Crockett, madisonville, college station would all be on the table everyone in our district and in 13 is due west of us!

  49. Yes sir they are in the district of doom in 12. District 13 in region 4 that we are paired with consists of Bruceville-Eddy, Hearne, Moody, Granger, Marlin, Rosebud-Lott, and thorndale. Don’t know much about any of those teams I know hearne has had decent teams In the past and so has marlin and rosebud Lott but they’ve all been pretty down lately. Definitely a much better chance of getting out of the first round than the district we’ve been getting paired with the last 4 seasons!
