We? No. But folks want updates, so I accommodate the masses

I don't see why this subject finds its way on this board so often. Yes, I am among those who thinks that the stadium should have been named after someone who history has looked kindly on (my choice was Coach Smith). However, there are a few truths that I think most of us who speak to this issue have. First, I am not nor have I ever been a resident of the Beaumont ISD. I have never voted in a board election there nor have I ever paid school district property taxes. If it were different, I might feel entitled to gripe, but I don't. Second, the current name of the stadium was given to it by a duly elected board of trustees which, at the time anyway, was recognized as the right and lawful board by the State of Texas. Third, a lawful Board of Managers appointed by the State of Texas has, and rightfully so, determined that there are more pressing matters within the BISD than the name of the district's football stadium. Look folks, I know that the issues that have plagued the BISD are fresh in our minds, but in a generation or so, no one in this area will have any more of an idea who Butch Thomas was than folks in Baytown now have as to who Bill Stallworth was, folks in Katy now have who Jack Rhodes was or folks in Conroe have now who Buddy Moorhead was.

Gabriel Pruett ‏@PaNewsGabe 51m51 minutes ago FB: And this one is over. 50-0 Titans.

I think someone hit a "2" when they should have hit a "1." Look at his record and you'll see

Gabriel Pruett ‏@PaNewsGabe 45m45 minutes ago FB: it's a scrimmage but PAM is up 50-0. Most offensive starters were pulled before that TD. And to think GCM took PAMs spot in 6A. Ouch

Ah, yes. True signs that the football season is coming!

Soulja, I have to disagree. First, it sounded like that last week Tyler had a little trouble getting untracked. While I have made pretty clear my feelings on claiming "wins" or 'losses" in a scrimmage, that doesn't mean I find them meaningless. First, it is a chance to get the offense down and this is especially true given Silsbee is installing a new offense under a brand new coach with an offensive line which features four guys with no starts on the varsity level. They need to gel. Second, I think it can be used to get a guy some confidence and while I have no doubt that C is a confident kid, performing well in this scrimmage will likely remove some questions that he might have. Aside from that, after viewing Ozen's scrimmage last week, the last thing that they need to worry about on defense is trying to get payback on a former teammate.

Many mods, only 2 admins.

Nope, no cookies from Soulja, which actually is a good thing. Soulja's a talented guy, but............

I was going to start with that this year like I did last year, but they complained about that THEN they complained about the poll.

That video needs to be long gone.
