SHHHHH -be quiet -- these kids don't know that-  THEY JUST SHOW UP AND PLAY WITH GRIT - and will show you that you got to come and take it -til someone does 4AD2 is their world

Just for u doubting them never measure the heart of champion. U really don't know !! Wen they feel threatened is wen they go to another level. It would be a gud idea to pay attention to w.o teams.stop looking at how they played. The defense is gonna give anyone fits.

DEFENSE wins CHAMPIONSHIPS!
We are still very good on defense, I like the doubting keep it up. "We will eat"

I can live with that. With success comes jealousy.

that's a pretty good idea - I wonder why no one else thot of this the last three years that WOS marched into the finals

All i know is when it's time for us to win we make it happen. Team has been battle tested a quite few times this year and they find a way to come out with the win. I am nothing but proud of this team despite what any one says! One game at a time Mustangs and we could very well end back up Jerry's World. Embrace the hate from your doubters!

I for one am!!! I am calling for his head and shoulders on a bust in the Texas High School Football Hall of Fame

Rent goes up every year so that is a burden. Part of the reason rent goes up is property taxes go up. So they pay taxes.  As for subsidized housing that is a minority of the available housing in the area. They don't live there for free.  They are tax payers. They buy items in the community.  They have just as much say in how the community educates the children as home owners.  
Please put down your dog whistle. White people also live in public housing. 
As far as businesses are concerned if they paid a little more tax and paid a little more of the profits to their employees instead of the CEO the community would be in better shape. Because businesses fight valuation tooth and nail homeowner are now paying more than they have in history as a percentage. Be a man of the people, don't fight for the man.

Rather than continue to post my thoughts, I am going to post what I saw on facebook from a friend of mine and a fellow WO-S graduate.  He posts here from time to time and I know many others know and respect him as much as I do.  That, plus I really can't improve on this as setting out the feelings regarding this "article.":
"As I was riding back from the game last night, we made the Bucees stop in Waller. Christmas music was playing via my IHeart Radio 92.5 Beaumont. my wife and son were all nestled in their slumber on the last leg from Bucees to Pflugerville. I was thinking about the article that was the latest rendition from the left coast regarding Earl Thomas. Deep down, it felt like the writer had more of a “twist” he was really spinning. To me, the celebrity of this was not really focused upon. I regret that twist on our hometown. We are no different than communities all around the country. We are not without blemish. My hometown struggles to land the next DuPont that carried Orange for years; helping many small business startups we knew as kids. My mind thought of many. The evolution of the market changes, and current global financial paradigms, certainly play a part of growth struggles. However, painting us as a town devoid of “good”, is distasteful. I am not blind to racial struggles, nor socio-economic divides. However, I’ve lost count on how many posts I’ve read about the incredible love, unity, and joint heroic efforts, performed by OUR citizens. In turbulent times, we usually find out who we are at the core, when the “waters get deep”. Everywhere I travel, I’m proud to tell people I’m from Orange, Texas. Even far away in travels, I don’t say Houston, as some people tend to do for geographic identity. It’s always, and only, Orange. So, I guess I feel that the article simply trashed who we really are. Those who know me best, know that I’m not silent when the time comes to stand for truth. Well, this time is no different. Orange, Texas is a wonderful community. It’s diverse. It’s a place where kids are all really friends. It’s a people proud of hard work and accomplishments. We are not the To Kill A Mockingbird idiots. We are a wonderful story of people who make their way. We are a people that are a whole lot more alike, than a FEW want it to be. I love my town. I can’t be silent on letting us be painted in a light that goes beyond the smudges on our shirts, without stating all the beauty of who I know Orange folk to be. Don’t be concerned too much about the few instances of bad vs the incredible stories, of incredible families, friends, events, heritages, etc..... In the book Friday Night Lights, the author went to Odessa and took full advantage of ripping that town. Some truths were stated. But, he made a killing at the expense of some incredible people. I felt this way in this article I read yesterday. Stay off all my homies in Orange. We are better than that!!!! Not without blemish, but so much more than that “agenda” in the article. I love you Fruit City."

Open enrollment? Yes (as do most school districts in Texas)? 
Recruiting of players is a baseless rumor started by folks jealous of success.  Fact is that over the last few years, Mustangs have been poached and are not the poachers.

Here is my understanding as to what the situation is:
1.  The ruling by the DEC was based upon an internal investigation by the BISD into allegations made to district AD's earlier in the week about an ineligible player.
2.  The controversy centered around a Jaguar who began the season with insufficient credits to be eligible.
3.  By UIL rule, if a player begins the season with ineligible credits, he is ineligible for the first six weeks of the school year.  If the student is passing after the first six weeks, he regains his eligibility.
4.  By the timeline, which was established after conferring with the UIL in Austin, the student in question would not have been eligible to play for Central until the Oct. 13th game against Nederland.
5.  The student, backup/special teams player, played in 3 district games while ineligible, 9/20 vs. Memorial, 9/26 vs. Vidor, and 10/7 vs. Ozen.  2 of those games, Central lost so no forfeit was required there.  But as Central defeated Ozen 49-14, they had to forfeit that game.
6.  The DEC unaniously determined that there was no intent by Central to play an ineligible player.  However, playing an ineligible player is a ZERO tolerance violation so the forfeiture was mandated.
