From what I know, the driver is a good guy. but even if the other guy wasn't paying attention, it's still the boat driver's responsibility to keep him safe. I'm hoping that the injured man makes a full recovery so that the impact on both families here will be reduced.

17 1/2 years for me. been a long time. Sometimes I wonder what happened to some of the guys as active as us that just quit showing up one day and never came back.

had someone get killed when their boat hit the same bridge back in may. it's a dangerous spot. this bridge is about 2 miles from my house, and I cross it all the time. I was pretty shocked with the media coverage. They had about 5x as much information on it as usual, which i appreciated since it was local.

the thing is this: it's not a great district. In fact, it's a bad district. Lumberton, who's been the "really good" team of the district the past couple of years has exactly 3 playoff wins in 3 years, and now they're way down even from that level. having said this, there's absolutely nothing wrong with fans of a team that hasn't had a great deal of success in the recent past being proud of their team winning a bad district, or even just doing pretty good in that district. If BC has improved enough to beat Vidor, Huffman, Lumberton, LCM, etc., and can finish in the top 3 of the district, they have a lot to be happy about. I'm just having a hard time with the BC fans who have the "we're being disrespected and overlooked" mindset when they haven't even beaten a 4A school yet this year.

9-4A teams (the district y'all ran from) scheduled teams like Hitchcock (twice), Carthage, Nederland (twice), Newton, La Vega, Episcopal, Chapel Hill, various 5A schools, etc., and you think it's funny nobody is impressed with y'all's schedule? Most of 9-4A's easiest pre-district games are against last year's playoff teams from your new district. Lumberton and LCM are "tested". They made a real schedule to prepare for district. It is what it is. Enjoy the easy schedule and improved team and quit trying to make it something it isn't, or make y'all out to be something y'all aren't (disrespected).

they've taken a big step back to what they were a couple of years ago, and are in the right district to have a good shot at making the playoffs, maybe even make a run at a DC or top-2 finish.

that team isn't on their schedule. LCM is as close as it gets, and they've already shown they'd be no better than 4th or 5th in the district you guys opted out of.

they've played a 3A pre-district schedule and are in one of the weakest districts in the state. The 3A schools they've beaten are mostly down from last year, and they aren't exactly playing Hitchcock or Columbus. What kind of credibility are you looking for? I think plenty of people are giving Bridge City CREDIT for showing a lot of improvement, but nobody is gonna start acting like they're one of the best teams in the area if they beat a depleted, winless Lumberton team to start 4-0 and give them the credibility that you're looking for. So having said all of that, it's important that BC fans sit back and enjoy what should be one of the best seasons y'all have had in quite awhile, without trying to demand that everyone pretend that what you're doing is a big deal. BC was smart to opt up, and it should lead to them doing better in district this year, but they would've finished no better than 5th if they'd stayed put, so you guys are gonna have to pump the brakes on wanting a bunch of credibility or being considered "tested" or whatever it is you're looking for.

Lumberton is 0-3, and lost most of their main pieces from last year. So no, they will not be considered tested after this game. But as VPfan said, it will give us a decent idea of what to expect from them in district this year.

would love to hear the reasoning behind voting "nay" on this one. I thought maybe the republicans had a attached a bunch of crap to the bill, as both sides often do (see the fake border bill the left blames the right for tanking), but it doesn't seem to be the case.

BC and their success against a 3A schedule vs. Lumberton and their struggles against a 5A schedule. Kinda tough to judge this one. I think it's safe to say that BC has improved and Lumberton is down from last year. The question is how they match up now that they've both moved the needle back to the center, and it's honestly kinda tough to judge based on the discrepancy in their schedules. I'm leaning towards the cards, but I haven't made my pickems yet.

My predictions have been off, so I'm gonna refrain from making one, and stick to things I can verify through stats and results. From what I've seen, on defense Hitchcock is more vulnerable through the air than on the ground, although if you can be effective through the air it will open up things on the ground. They gave up 37 in a loss to Legacy SSS their first game of the season, and the qb had around 225 yds and a couple of touchdowns through the air. They gave up almost 50 in a win over HF, with Bryson going for 350 yds and 5 touchdowns against them (they did pick him off 4 times). I don't know anything about La Marque's style, but Bellville did almost nothing against their defense with Hitchcock being able to stack the line and key on the run. Silsbee will most likely need to move the ball well through the air to win this one. From what I've seen of the QB, he's capable of doing it. Still, with the injuries it feels like an uphill battle for the tigers.

officials were bad in the first half. But that’s no excuse for the result, it wouldn’t have mattered. This cowboys team is not good. The problem is that Dak will probably do what he always does, which is rack up all-time great stats against all the bad teams on their schedule, and squeak them into the playoffs, and lose a first round game. Just enough for Jerry to do nothing to improve the team. But hey, maybe not this year. They’ll lose to some bad teams as well if they don’t quit allowing about 7 yds a run. I just don’t think there’s a point where they get so bad that Jerry admits to himself that it’s time to give it up. And it’s a shame that his son is in a position to take the team over when he’s done. I may be in NFL purgatory forever.

We can at least talk about some of these games going on or results on here. I’ll start: if that last defensive play wasn’t defensive PI or at least illegal contact, Dak is gonna have a hard time today.

Hope you’re a Texans fan 😉

Only took me four weeks to have a competitive week. 🙄

Gotcha. Only getting updates on here, and your post came awhile after the previous score update, so I thought it was later

Not sure. I’m at the deer lease

Not good. Also not sure why he’s in with them up by almost 40 at that point

Carthage by 20. I mean 30

I like BC. 27-21

This game needs to be a pickem 😀

agree, as long as the defense doesn't give up a bunch of points like they did vs vidor.

comfortable win for the horns. Can Bryson go 23-25 for 550 yds again?
