  3. Good Line up jdawg. Now fixed up Lamar Cardinal stadium and put turf down. There's a stadium to use. It would draw big crowds. They could have the renevations and turf paid for in a few years.

    Wishful thinking!!

    you know...your prolly right....with that classic and the numerous playoff games that would be played there....im bettin they would have that stuff payed off in 10 years...

    they do this sort of thing every year in Tyler and its been a big success

  4. He's not fired-----yet.

    From what i'm hearing from some people is that they are looking into talking to TJ-ex Todd Dodge. If they can spit up the money he'll come back to SE Texas where he belongs.

    lol...we can all dream

    Dont see it happening....Dodge's son I think may be the Qb at SLC next year...and from what im hearing, Dodge's next move will be to a Division 1 college program....

    But it would sure be nice

  5. Sad story but what a happy ending.........

    She said RUN

    By: JEFF WICK, The Beaumont Enterprise 12/09/2004

    Tom Eckert/The Enterprise

    Newton junior Toddrick Pendland, right, and his sophmore brother Broddrick have had to overcome a lot in their young lives as their mom was shot to death by their stepdad when they were little boys.

    NEWTON-His mother told him to run.

    Toddrick Pendland's stepdad had come home drunk and mad - again.

    So Tonya Ray (Taylor) Myers made her eight-year-old son take his little brother and leave.

    Pendland, with his younger brother Broddrick in tow, ran to a neighbor's house. That's where they heard the two gunshots that killed their mother.

    "They told me she was alright until I got to my aunt's house," said Pendland.

    It was only then that he was told the truth.

    That August day in 1996, his mother had told him to run.

    Nearly a decade later, Pendland is still listening.

    Saturday, the Newton Eagle High School football team will play for the Class 2A Division I state title. It's a team loaded with superstars, but maybe none better than Pendland, the tailback.

    This year alone he's rushed for 2,160 yards and 26 touchdowns.

    "He's a great player," said Newton head coach Curtis Barbay.

    In two days, thousands of people will fill Waco ISD Stadium to watch just how great.

    Of all the fans cheering for him, however, one person will be missing.

    "I think she would have enjoyed herself watching us play," said Pendland.

    He hardly ever goes to his mother's gravesite anymore, but before he goes out on the field, Pendland always makes sure to say hi.

    "Before every game, I get on my knees and pray to God to tell my mom I love her," he said. "And that this is another game for her."

    His mother told him to run.

    But it was Pendland's uncle Tye Taylor who gave him something to run with - a football.

    Tye started Toddrick playing pee-wee football soon after the tragedy.

    "It kept me excited to do something," said Pendland.

    There was only one problem.

    At the time, Pendland wasn't big or fast.

    He was kind of brittle, too.

    "I broke my arm (playing football) when I was in the fourth grade," Pendland said, explaining why he much preferred basketball early on. "Stiffon Ethridge (who now shares the backfield with Pendland on the Eagle varsity) was bigger than everybody back then.

    "Coach said he'd give us a dollar if somebody would tackle him. I was the only one who tried. I hopped on his back, then somebody jumped on my back."

    Etheridge went down - right on Pendland's arm.

    In time, the broken arm healed, but Pendland stayed small.

    Even now, he's only 5-foot-8 and 165 pounds.

    Somewhere along the line, however, he got really fast.

    "Sixth or seventh grade I started running around everywhere I went," said Pendland. "I don't know why. I just started running."

    He ran his way onto the varsity as a sophomore.

    He ran his way into the end zone on one of his first carries with the team.

    That speed will insure his pick of several college scholarships when he graduates from Newton.

    His mother told him to run.

    But he never had to run alone.

    Broddrick was always there with his older brother - whether Toddrick liked it or not.

    "We had it out when we were little; we fought every day," Toddrick said. "We're cool now."

    This season Broddrick, a sophomore, was the starting cornerback on the junior varsity football team.

    When the playoffs started, he got called up to the varsity. The brothers share the same sideline now.

    "Watching him makes me want to get better," said Broddrick. "To try to be better than him."

    His mother told him to run.

    But it was his grandma who gave him somewhere to run to.

    After their mother's death, Mary Taylor gave her grandsons a home.

    She took Toddrick and Broddrick out of Bleakwood Elementary and moved them to Newton Elementary where she worked.

    She wanted them close.

    "My grandmother is a very strong person," Pendland said. "She guided me through elementary, middle school, high school. She still gets on me now."

    And not just about keeping up with his schoolwork.

    Taylor is an avid Newton football fan. She makes it to most of the games.

    When everyone else is patting her grandson on the back for another good game, the former star basketball player herself is a little harder on him.

    "She criticizes me all of the time if I fumble," laughed Pendland. "Or if I make a bad move, I get it."

    His mother told him to run.

    But Pendland held his ground that day in court when he had to testify in the trial that put his stepdad away.

    "They wouldn't let me see any of the pictures (of his mom) or anything like that," said Pendland. "I only went in (to the courtroom) for a second. They kept me in the back, and then I came in and talked, and I came back out."

    The judge asked Pendland if he knew right from wrong.

    He did.

    He was also asked what he remembered from that day.

    He remembered it all.

    "I remember all the sounds and everything and where I was at," he said. "He was drunk...he didn't want us to go nowhere...I heard a lamp break. I heard two gunshots when we were already at the house behind us."

    He didn't talk about his mother's death much after the trial.

    "I didn't want people to see me crying," he said. "I held my feelings inside."

    Pendland said time has made things easier.

    His mother told him to run.

    So, when he gets home from Saturday's game, Pendland just might sprint to the cemetery.

    "I think I might go out there if we do win," said Pendland. "I might go out there, put a little '04 (championship) sign out there by her grave. Something like that."

    ________________________________________________________________

    He finally got his state championship in 05....

  6. Got this from another website

    AP's Response to Last Week's All-State Teams

    I spoke at length with Paul Webber, the sports editor for the Associated Press in Texas.

    I asked him about their process of selecting the all-state teams released a week ago.

    He told me he's committed to correcting some of the problems with the nomination process.

    There were eight sports editors involved in compiling lists from "all" the Texas AP sports editors throughout Texas.

    I know Lubbock, El Paso, Dallas, Sherman, Houston, Corpus Christi, and San Antonio were seven of the eight regions represented.

    The eighth was somewhere in central Texas, perhaps Waco or Austin.

    No newspaper sports editor from East Texas was involved in the "regional" process, but Mr. Webber told me EVERY ASSOCIATED PRESS MEMBER NEWSPAPER SPORTS EDITOR should know about the nomination process, and it's up to each specific sports editor from all the newspapers involved to insure the process is completed in their area.

    Mr. Webber told me the subject of all-state team selections was also discussed back during an AP convention in March.

    Mr. Webber also said he'd make sure there was an East Texas representative starting next year.

    The Texas AP is also going to change the process up to make it easier for those who are eligible to nominate players...

    They plan on going on-line next year, and perhaps moving the deadline back another week or two...and this could help make the nomination process a little easier and more concise.

    I was also told if a player is nominated to the all-state team by any of the regional directors, he's automatically on the honorable-mention list.

    He was disappointed some of the better players from the best teams in East Texas didn't make any teams.

    He also mention how Deon Beasley from West Orange-Stark was left out of the nomination process, but somehow, someone caught that mistake before it was too late.

    I offered to help in anyway possible since our radio stations are members of the Asssociated Press.

    None of this helps for what was released last week, but it might clarify how each team is selected.

  7. Silsbee is already the newest field in SE Texas. They did a nice job on the entire complex. The addition of field turf will just add to the pride and increased interest of people.

    You know, the thing Silsbee has goin for it is the paper mill right beside it in Evadale...also have that big LP plant.....theres some money there
