  1. Texas has roughly 7 million more people than Florida, so more depth shouldn't be anything surprising. The quality is very similar. I never said they have the same type of football. But the talent is equal. Call it heresy or whatever you want.
  2. Lol. The numbers would indicate otherwise.
  3. Last year, Venice beat Stephenville 37-8 & Allen beat Viera (7A state runner-up to St. Thomas Aquinas). In 2013, Venice beat Plano 35-21 and Stephenville beat Dillard 46-32. 2012, Booker T. Washington beat Cedar Hill 40-21. 2011, Cocoa beat Dallas Skyline 36-20. 2010 had quite a few. Looks like it's been pretty even between FL and TX.
  4. Generally speaking, stadiums in Florida aren't as lavish as what you see in Texas or even Georgia. I don't know the exact reasons why, but oil money could be apart of it. Also, the school districts here go by county, not city like in TX. So I can imagine it'd be much harder to pass individual school bonds here. Plus, they just put more resources into extracurricular activities in general in TX.
  5. I believe his family moved to the DFW area and he was looking at Southlake Carroll and maybe other schools outside of Aledo. One way or another, the rich get richer as they say.
  6. Wouldn't the booster club pay for stuff like jerseys? Or is it actually the taxpayers?
  7. 1) West Brook 2) Dayton 3) Barbers Hill 4) New Caney 5) Lumberton 6) PN-G 7) WO-S 8) Splendora 9) Bridge City 10) LC-M 11) Orangefield 12) Bellville 13) Coldspring-Oakhurst 14) Liberty 15) Huntington 16) Woodville 17) Newton 18) Hardin 19) San Augustine 20) East Chambers 21) West Hardin 22) Deweyville 23) PA Memorial 24) Bellaire Episcopal 25) Evadale
  8. Sorry to get off the subject of the title, but calling the coverage area "Golden Triangle" would be the opposite issue of calling it Southeast Texas. Correct me if I'm wrong, the Golden Triangle is Beaumont, Orange, Port Arthur? Well that would leave out all of Hardin County, Jasper County, Newton County, and a little bit more. They won't be able to please everyone.
  9. I could quibble on the order, but all in all it's a good list. Wish I could be there for a few of those games!
  10. You can take a deep breath now! Just in time for scrimmages to start
  11. I can't wait.
  12. Complaining about coverage... Football season really is back!
  13. With practice starting for most teams in SETX tomorrow, just wanted to say good luck to all the teams and fans over there as the season starts. I do miss being there at times, though I know some people on here were glad I left lol. Anyhow, I wish a ton of success to all the area teams!
  14. Nobody ever said that all lives don't matter, but in this country, black lives have not mattered as much as some other lives for a very long time. BLM's message from the start is that black lives matter "as well", not more than any other group. You deciding to lump all BLM activists into one group that advocates cop-killing (which is untrue as there are BLM leaders who have come out and condemned the killing of police officers as retaliation) is just like someone who decides to lump all police officers into one group, whether they are crooked cops or otherwise. When they are all lumped together, people beg and plead for that not to be the case. But BLM has some extremists that most people disagree with and that falls by deaf ears. You wouldn't dare group all Christians together based off of what the Westboro Baptist Church does and you wouldn't (well people do, but they shouldn't) group all Muslims together because of ISIS. You pick and choose when to group everyone together and when to separate them. It is certainly possible to condemn unjustified cop killings and still acknowledge that there is police brutality and unjustified killing by cops of black people. If you don't see that then there's nothing I can do to convince you. And if you're going to simply post videos and stories that back up your argument, I figure I will post stories that show the other side: [Hidden Content] And another one: [Hidden Content]
  15. Looks like Deionte Thompson is the 3rd safety at Bama, probably could play as the dime back. I see Tony Brown is training but I haven't heard anything about his playing time or if he's still suspended.
  16. I see. I hope the change pays off for Silsbee. I still think this will be a high scoring game just because it's the first game of the season. Both teams seem to have more weapons on the offensive side of the ball. Defenses may take a bit more time to gel. I could see the Silsbee defense struggling a bit to start the season but being a force by the time district/playoffs start.
  17. I feel like Silsbee/PN-G will be a very high-scoring game
  18. I'll say LSU as well
  19. There are a few teams I can think of that are. But you're right, has nothin to do with nothin
  20. LC-M isn't all white, if that's who you're implying. Not close really.
  21. Those were really nice. I think West Brook as a whole has my favorite unis in SETX.
  22. I was looking at some of the VYPE previews and I thought of this question for the forum: Best/favorite unis in SETX? A lot of people will have bias to the team they root for. Some like old school unis (WO-S, Nederland) and some like newer looking ones (PA Memorial, PN-G). Anyways, thought this would be a good question for the dog days of July. I like the PA Memorial red unis, I just wish the numbers were black or white instead of the tough to read red on red.
  23. Well Oak Ridge plays West Brook at the Butch on Oct. 27 for anyone that wants to root Jacoby on. Congrats to him on the new gig! WO-S prepared him well, that I'm sure of.
  24. Listen man, I don't really care. But it was a drawing, not sure how any one drawing could have chosen another pool. Anyways, the people that drew and ultimately approved that poster made a mistake. Whether it was purposely racial or not, I don't know. But it was a mistake. A mistake that a place as big as the Red Cross can't make. And if you want to be childish about when you think your race is considered inferior, go right ahead, you won't be the first or last. I don't want to make it a competition, I wish the worst complaint we could have is an insurance commercial.
  25. Maybe they should have picked a better insurance company.
