Wrong again. Interschool contests have, not spring ball.

I think the lack of a working vaccine is what is scaring everyone. The regular flu vaccine doesn't work on this strain.

Mosely and Charles.

James, PM those numbers, I am curious about that. As far as the press box goes, I doubt that the hole in the floor is code, and the wiring is substandard for what is being done there. I agree that the maintenence guys do there best, there is just not enough of them. With the amount of traffic on the grass now, I am not sure that the crew will be able to keep the current field up to standard, there is just not enough time to repair/rebuild the field between the end of school and football season.

That stinks, but is probably a good idea.

Maintenence of turf vs field should still be a lot less when you add in the other facotrs that I have mentioned before. The elevator in the press box is a ADA requirement. As far as replacement, IDK the second part of the bond in a few years will include a brand new stadium and maybe replacement of the turf at the old one.

Where are you getting that a turf field needs to be replaced after 10 years? Just wondering. I would think that if the field was maintained properly it would last longer than that.

This all goes back to his "why is football king" thread. It is king because it puts way more tails in seats than BB, and more people participate in football. As far as spring football goes, others have made the point. If you have a new coach or young players, or are changing up the system, the coach needs the time to evaluate the players. Did Ozen do spring football?

Don't know. That would be up to the consumers, not all of which are from Ned. Early voting has started get out and vote!

We'll take him. Isn't he a defensive minded coach?

Congrats to Ned on DCs in baseball and softball!

This thread is hearsay at best. If you don't know what that is look it up. It usually is not allowed in court, and it not helping anything here. Lets wait and see what is determined by the LCM admin. I will lock this thread if it continues.

Ahh the true reason for this thread...

Thanks ETBU!

I agree. I think this thread has gone just about as far as it Should go until the tape is reviewed and the LCM admins render a decsion.

Ok, I think we are talking about two different districts. PNGbandkid said something about roof leaks, as far as I know, the repairs in Nederland held after Rita and I don't think they had alot of damage after IKE. As far as the budget goes, I am not sure what it is but it is probably posted on the NISD site under Board meetings.

I would pay to see that!

The repairs had to be done. Would you rather had waited and see if we passed the bond? Also, brand new buildings will reduce the maintenance costs and stress on the crews. Its a lot easier to maintain a new building than try to patch together 50 year old buildings.

Let's not bash players or umpires plz

Is this from the current bond?

I'm sorry Dawgnut, can you ever forgive me???

Ok, this thread is locked and gone..

So what exactly is the point of this post?

Again, read the bond. It is on the NISD website. I provided the link further back in this thread.

You might need to get your facts straight before you spout off. (shakes head) nevermind, forgot who I was talking to. I haven't denied anything, just gave you facts about what happened instead of going off on misinformed tirades. So what that they did both bonds? I explained why Gulf Coast did the upgrades. So do you actually have a point or enjoy talking in circles? The bond is online , why don't you read it before you come on here and attack it, and don't say you did because I would hope that you wouldn't have come on here and made some of the statements that you did. Maybe man up and go to a meeting and ask hard questions , instead of coming on a message board and asking them.
