When their castoffs start enrolling at LCM.

My youngest grandson may change your mind. I mean he's 3, but he's a bad 3. Lmao.

I know you’re not that nieve. His face is on the coin and his sons manage the companies.

I guess my point is getting into politics should not make one rich. Trump was already wealthy. Vast majority of other politicians were not until they got into politics.

Congrats to Coach Foreman and Coach T. over in Jasper. For all you bandwagon folks when things are good y'all on. Make up y'all mind Silver and Blue 4 ever., or not. For the Players drown out the noise and the negativity, get ready to pick up where we left off and build on that.

Pretty sad and pathetic and probably demonic that people actually think that a male can be a female and vice versa. this is what happens when people fall away from the Word of God…. It trickles into our leaders and governing officials.

Probably a slow year this year as stated several times already,I would imagine recruiting is in full swing though!

If so, I called it in real life, offline lol

I believe both Vance and Trump have mentioned there are different groups that do not agree with the deal Trump is making with the current leadership. They have also mentioned that communication can take days because the gay leader does not want to give away his position. Taking that in to consideration along with the fact that none of the leadership is willing to go in public, there may be a leadership/communication problem..... So, to me that makes Slim's statement believable.

Give those columns some more of the little blue pill to stiffen ‘em up.

No doubt Sam Walton is turning over in his grave. American made was something he built his business on and was proud of it. His kids are some greedy individuals. Not to mention he took care of his employees. Today they treat their employees like numbers because that’s what they are to them. I stay away from Chinamart as much as I can.

WB making the playoffs and will knock off your Titans,

The new OC will definitely will definitely bring the offense back from the Stone Age. Was kind of surprised he would leave Colorado State and come to high school but that's the pull of Coach Williams already paying dues. At the end of the day math just doesn't math though. With our demographics we just don't have the enrollment to play with the top 4 teams in the district and probably not with Kingwood either. Have to remember Kingwood backing into the playoffs a couple years ago with a shocker over CE King and making the regional final. SEC commit in the middle of the defense and a 5* A&M commit at left tackle anchoring a very good offensive line and they have 0 shot. That's life outside the top 4 in this district. North Shore is ranked #2 but I think Summer Creek might be the best team in the district and by far the team set up for the most success over the next decade? They couldn't deal with the CE King run game last year but I'm not sure they don't win a state title if they had went D1. That being said it's almost crazy to think CE King will still field the best collection of skill players in the district and IMO opinion the favorite out of all those teams to win a state title now that Desoto has dropped to 5A. Atascocita is the wild card, for the first time in over a decade they'll get to play D2 and their new coach already has experience coaching high level kids being that he was on staff for Desoto's 2022 state title. Not that the record would reflect it in the next four or five years but I think Crosby is going to get very good relatively fast playing in this district similar to CE King's rise simply because of what it's going to take every Friday night just to be "competitive".

Muslims never immigrate to other Muslim countries. They always immigrate to Christian (or supposedly Christian) countries. Almost seems like its on purpose, doesn't it?? What could possibly be their reason??? LOL

Well 4 hit 2-0 shutout Lambert win Hader save no 9 Paredes and Walker Dingers for the total. I'll take it

When Hollywood was great!

I agree.

Kavanaugh did not rule the EO was unconstitutional. Kavanaugh ruled it violated a previous Statute, and that Statute could be modified. But, the EO couldn’t take effect due to the Statute—not because of the Constitution or any Amendment. Justice Kavanaugh disagreed with the majority’s constitutional holding, but he concluded that Trump’s executive order violated a federal statute, 8 U.S.C. §1401(a). “Congress could—consistent with the Fourteenth Amendment—amend §1401(a) or otherwise enact new legislation establishing exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily in the country. But Congress has not yet done so.” [Hidden Content] So, effectively, the ruling was 6-3 to deny the implementation of the EO. But, not because of the Constitution in Kavanaugh’s decision.

Trump making 2 billion doesn't alarm me. Like baddog stated, he was a billionaire before taking office. What alarms me is politicians being worth 200 to 400 thousand going into office and coming out worth 75 to 100 million+. Like the case up in Minnesota. Went in office at 90,000 and 4 years later has 100 million. That's what should alarm folks.

I just want .500 by All Star break. Current record is 43-46. Nine games remaining before break. Last 3 are against division leader Arlington. 6-3 will put us at .500. It's doable.

8 more weeks from today it begins. 💪🏾

Also, on Monday, the Supreme Court ruled in Trump v. Slaughter. Articles I, II and III in the Constitution list the separation of powers. Article II gives the president complete control over the Executive Branch of government. The FTC is under the authority of the Executive Branch. It is therefore controlled by one person, the president. Trump came into office and fired two members of the FTC because they were appointed by Democrats and they did not agree with Trump‘s position. For that reason, Trump said, you’re fired! One of them, Rebecca Slaughter did not like that. He filed a lawsuit saying that you can’t fire me. A 1935 lawsuit ruled on by the Supreme Court said that Congress funds and created the FTC so the president cannot fire anyone on a commission that he and only he is ahead of. So basically, he cannot fire his own employee even though the his employee said, I don’t agree with your agenda, Mr. President. So Trump took to court and the circuit court said, yes, Mr. President, you were prohibited from finding members of a commission that you and only you are ahead of. You are forced to work with people that do not want to work for you or for your agenda Trump has been appealed to the Supreme Court. On Monday, the Supreme Court in a 6 to 3 decision said, what kind of nonsense is this. Sure, a president can fire a member of an executive commission that he alone controls. Who wants to work with a subordinate who can basically tell you to get screwed? So just because Congress does not like it, under the separation of powers, they do not control executive committees and commissions. Congress can create committees but once created, they are under the authority of the president and can be terminated. Again, the vote was 6 to 3 that the president alone in Article II, controls the Executive Branch. Any guesses on which 3 justices said to heck with Article II, the president should not be able to control all aspects of his administration?

It was 6/3, I'm pretty sure. While I don't really like the outcome, I believe it was the correct ruling based on Constitutional law.

Falcon needs to jump on over to the political forum. They'd fit right in.

I’m gonna keep posting these clips because they make me realize how we, as Americans, take things for granted. We don’t appreciate how good we have it. Even with inflation and high gas prices, Europeans are so impressed with A/C everywhere, variety in our grocery stores, the size of our retail outlets, portions served in restaurants, and our hospitality. To put it in a nutshell….Americans are spoiled.

If Jasper beats WOS…I wonder how long until a special board meeting is called…

Alvarez Grand Slam lead 6-4. Nice way to break out of slump.

I think it’s a little of both. The ‘big boys’ may have originally eaten some of the tariffs. Then, they finally had to raise prices. So, we paid at least some of the tariffs via higher prices. I remember Walmart finally having to raise their prices on a lot of their goods since they get a bunch from China, and other foreign countries. As an aside, I spent a great deal of my youth in Bentonville, AR because my mom grew up there, and half my family still lives in the area. Sam Walton never stocked a foreign product in his original store. Everything was American made or grown. He’s probably turning over in his grave nowadays.

It was/is for those that thinks facts are conspiracies. They now who they are!

Government serves government not we the people!

Should we ban all first generation immigrants from holding public office?

And that’s what makes this tiresome. I attempted to show some of the negatives I see about Trump, and here we are playing games. It’s really pointless.

He has been being busy running the country. You know, mind on other things. But -- it's fascinating that you know exactly what he's thinking.

So @89Falcon is now on staff at San Augustine. Losing the fullback/DL player will hurt Shepherd a bit but I still think they make playoffs.

The game will receive some hype due to who the coaches for Jasper are… but if it’s within 3 TDs I may be surprised if we are being honest

I’ve got this shirt on order. Lmao

Tarkington just hired Dr. Randall O'Brian, recently retired from GCCISD, as their interim Superintendent. I am sure he will quickly bring stability and relief to Tarkington.

This morning the Supreme Court issued another ruling in West Virginia v. B.P.J. WV was being sued by a biological male (B. P. J.) wanting to play on female teams. The question was, does Title IX of federal law on sex based discrimination, keep states from banning biological males from female sports. Title IX wasn’t originally for sports but at least that seems to be where the main impact and attention has been. The law says that in educational benefits from grade schools through college, sexes must have an equal access in educational programs. For example if a high school had 10 boys sports and only 2 girls sports, it was seen as not having equal access. It has obviously improved funding for girls sports in schools and in college and that’s a good thing. Look at some of the popularity of some female sports now. But this case was not about that. West Virginia, Texas, Idaho and other states have passed laws banning biological males from female sports. Also the NCAA recently banned males from female sports. Lawsuits were filed saying that banning males from female sports violated Title IX by discriminating against the males by denying them access to sports. So a West Virginia case made it to the Supreme Court to see if it was a constitutional violation of male rights by banning them from female sports. To me it seemed like a simple answer. Men are not denied access to sports. They are only banned from joining female teams. So a male does not have to be allowed to join a female basketball team. He has equal access to sports and can join the men’s team. It’s so simple, right? Not so fast!! The Supreme Court had to settle this decision. It was not unanimous. The vote was 6-3 that banning males from female sports was not discrimination against males. This is like beating a dead horse…. 🫪 Can anyone guess which three justices voted that it is discrimination if a boy is denied playing on a girl’s team by claiming that he is a girl and he apparently has no access to sports? Is he denied educational (usually sports) access? Here is a hint and this is a spoiler alert. One of the justices who voted that males should be able to play on female teams and it is guaranteed in federal law and the Constitution by way of Title IX, is not sure what a male or female is anyway.

I can break it down in one acronym "TDS". It was a 5/4 decision and one of those in the majority cannot define what a woman is. There is no telling how many terrorist will come back as an adult and us citizen and get away with an attack.

I was commenting on some of your other sentences... "For clarification: schools run a background check from the DPS database. If that comes back "clear", the school check references. Former employers are only technically allowed to provide 1. dates of employment 2. eligible for rehire yes/no 3. they may also provide safety info for DOT sensitive positions. Anything beyond the above listed information can expose the former employer to legal trouble." And my comment was they are ok to provide any factual information as long as the prospect signed a release and it is truthful and non-inflammatory. Your limitation of only 3 things that an employer can "technically" provide is incorrect. I've tested it in court. A few times...

Yep. I'd enjoy hearing some insight after listening to the BU coach interview with Stepp. He seemed like he has the temperament to really help the program over there.

Brookeland hires Bryce Gaston - head baseball Coach Gaston has been an assistant under Shawn Mixon at Huntington for the last two years.

😂😂💀

Graduated one all-state player but still return one. Will look different not as many dunks but I do believe still one of the better teams in the region. Top 3A region 3 teams I would expect to be: east chambers (stud guard and coach), onalaska (still press and shoot lots of 3s), Westwood (returns all but one), Central Heights, Trinity (they should take another huge leap and my favorite for d1), Orangefield (great coach and return some good pieces). Warren, Huntington, PCA, Diboll all going to be solid too. I do think Diboll has a chance to be real good. Lorena and Tarkington will be really good too after dropping down from 4A.

I’m relieved to see gas prices coming down but still not happy. To blame TDS for those still not happy is ridiculous. I’m afraid prices will jump back up once the deal officially falls apart.

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.
