82 5A State Champs

I'm not saying that he's not going to be one of the best, but I saw him a couple of weeks ago (Cardenas).......he's just a little fellow. I was really suprised at how small his stature was.

I just saw the video of it. It appears as though, his car dropped a cylinder at about the 1/8th mile which caused the motor to explode. This explosion blew the body off of the car as it burst into flames. The car continued through the traps, on fire with the parachutes deployed, and hit a concrete retaining wall head on. That run actually put him in the field as the #13 qualifier. Scott Kalitta was 46. He leaves behind a wife and two sons. [Hidden Content]

Top Fuel driver Scott Kalitta was killed today while making a qualifying pass in Englishtown N.J. I understand that his car drove off the end of the track into the sand pit and exploded. I dont know any more details, but I will post them as they become available. The Kalitta family has been instrumental in the growth of the NHRA, and Scott will be missed. [Hidden Content]

I think BISD will start building the stadium very soon. I would bet dirt will be flying before Summer is over. I dont think anything is gonna happen, for a while. BISD has a tendency to drag their feet with big projects. I expect nothing less from our great adminmistration. ;D

Most likely games won't be played there till 2012 or 2013, if not later. BISD knows how to drag their feet. Depending on when they actually start on it, it should take about two years to complete. If they start it now, it should be football ready for the 2011 season. Should be really nice stadium if it's done right!

Well, at least most of us agree with who should be on top of that poll! ;D

That stadium is just gonna be awesome.

Maaan, 82. We get no respect being way at the bottom like that! lol. Just remember this post after week 1. ;D Oh, contrair moonfrair ;D. I think this ranking will probably come true.....especially after week's 0 and 1. LOL! (at least I stuck you guys in front of L-town)

1) West Brook 2) Dayton 3) Nederland 4) WO-S 5) Newton 6) Kirbyville 7) PN-G 8) Central 9) Lumberton 10) Memorial

You must be referring to Chris, Craig's brother. Craig is the QB in the video, not Chris.

KUDOS, dude!

Aunt Joy has been instrumental in getting this race together. Uncle Joe would be proud. Thanks guys!

I have heard rumors circulating around that BISD's new stadium will rival GPISD's stadium, which is a very nice complex complete with field turf. However, before it can be built, they need to stop dragging their feet and decide on a site in which to build it and get on with the project. If they started right now, it would probably be 2010 before it would be finished and playable. WBbear probably knows more about it than I do.

If the caution hadn't have waved, the 88 wouldn't have won the race. Good job to those guys, they deserve it.

Happy Fathers Day to all the great dad's on this forum! Have a great and special day!

LOL!

This kid will be an asset to the team no matter where you put him. We probably wont see much of him next season, but watch for him in the 2009 season.

We've also got this kid, Bruce Reyes, coming up in the next few years. He will be a sophomore next year, so he might get some varsity time. This kid also looks like a beast!

I found this video, and thought you guys might find it interesting! [Hidden Content]

There will be an additional RB in the backfield, I think. I'm told that Jordan Garrett (#4), along with a few others, will split the load with C Mike. Am I right, WBbear?

Again, Coach Chip is gonna have to be on his game this year to keep #33 healthy, thus not leading to a premature ending to the season.

Let's just hope he doesn't turn into another Boobie Miles story, and we lose him for the season to injury. Hopefully, he will stay relatively healthy all season long!

Maybe we can hope that our defense will mature faster than normal, and be a good complement to our offense.

Sorrrry!
