    This is the hidden content, please

    To be honest, I don’t have a big problem with it. You still have to make the score on a standardized test which means you have to be able read and reason. We aren’t talking Officer Candidates. We are talking about grunts who will be sacrificing their lives to protect us. I don’t see where a GED or equivalent is necessary in this instance.

    How about those clucking cackling, cowboys. JJ feeding that laying mesh. I hear he has ripped out the lockers and put in coops.    
    I am so tired of year after year of being disappointed by the cowboys. No more.  
    Go Texans.

     

     

    Yeah, if you're switching teams, at least the Texans won't disappoint. 🤣

    You already know they're not going anywhere!

    Peevy is in good and will get the guy he wants ….is WOS looking for a DC and OC is my question? Can’t seem to find any direct answers for that question.

    Yes they are from what I’ve heard. Wouldn’t swear by it though.

    Unfortunately, your homes value is determined by what some yayhoo was willing to give for a ""comparable" house this year.  The state has access to sale prices and the rest is history.

     

    What drives me bonkers is they keep looking at comparable sale prices without subtracting the realtor fees and costs of the sale.  If the house sells for 200k, the realtor netted $12k.   The actual value to the seller was $188.... unless, of course, they agreed to contribute towards the buyers' closing costs.  Now you're at $180k of actual value to the seller/owner.  If you then back out the thousands of dollars spent "making the home ready for sale" by painting, landscaping, bringing items up to code, etc, the actual value of the property might have been $165k or so... but now everybody in the neighborhood is paying based on that one dude's sale price of $200k when NONE of the houses on the street are carrying an actual value of more than 165k.  

     

     

    Yep.

  5. I’m sure there may be some merit to this proposal, but I can see some failures with it too. What if 100 people want to sell their house to the county at the same time? How can the county afford to buy all of them? What will they do with them? Is this socialized realty? Lol.

    Call me crazy, but the less dealings I have with the government, the better. Also, being that it was proposed by a politician, a Democrat at that, it couldn’t be a well thought out plan.

    So WOS loses to 5a state champs PNG by 6, 3a Power house Newton by 4, #2 state ranked Silsbee by 14, #7 ranked HF by 7, 4th round team Jasper by 3 and we are saying that HH is not a good coach? I think wos fans are a little delusional. Someone said wos has the same athletes as Gilmer? WOS did NOT have the caliber player that Gilmer had. Overall, WOS is very athletic, but they were not as talented as the teams from the years past. Give HH a chance. Next year should be a very good season for the Mustangs. 

    All points well taken; however, I would’ve expected at least one win of those listed. Chalk it up to a 2nd year head coach. If I was asked my criticism, it would be the the OC & DC should’ve been better picked, especially since the HC was new. I think the program can be turned around. Will the powers that be allow it? I think yes. Will the community as a whole allow for a learning curve? Not so far. Yep…losing to the 5 A state champs by 6, even though clearly WOS could have won that game, is just one of several instances of proof that all is not lost. I hope this year does not disappoint.

    The ONLY way this would make any sense is if the Liberty Hill HC, or former Liberty Hill HC (Jerry Vance), or the Bellville HC applied.  Even with that being said -- I'm not sure that's the route I'd want to go.  

    I’d do it in a heartbeat. Why not if that’s what the personnel calls for?
