Republican politicians are out to help the conservative elite and Democrat politicians are out to help the liberal elite. Ordinary folks argue everday about politicians that dont give a damn about ordinary folks.

BS up 16-15 after 1

What a lot of folks do not understand or will never understand, playing high school sports is not a right. It's a privilege. Two completely different things and rules, policies and discipline reflect those differences.

we got some real winners/whiners typing today.
strip your dang maroon and white off and look at it as just a person.  its funny how some will go against principals when it affects them directly or indirectly
PEP RALLY....really!
Are yall the same people who think its ok to loot, burn cars and buildings, and gang fight when protesting
 I said this in the initial topic yesterday.  Good/Great athletes can get away with alot and have lesser consequences than others from H.S. all the way to PROs.  and usually when their playing days are done for those athletes who had a checkered past they end up in prison, dead, or broke.  IF society(parents, family, coaches, etc) would have just done their part in  teaching/correcting/disciplining  the individual when they were young.....society has become about only caring about winning a game/championship/scholarship/money instead of doing the right thing and shifting or ricocheting the blame.  There are plenty of examples out there take your pick.   
All individuals(lcm and silsbee) in this situation should have consequences.  I dont necessarily agree with individuals whom defended themselves should get punished.
 
 

How do you downvote someone?

Let's get one thing straight, Devon's punishment was not solely based off that 9 second video. Complete video's from both teams were viewed, people were interviewed and decisions were made based off that info.
SISD and it's athletic programs have policies that deal with fighting. The punishment was based on all that criteria.
I feel really bad for the young man. He made a terrible decision. He now has to face the consequences. I hope he learns from this incident tremendously. Everyone makes mistakes or makes bad decisions. You just cannot keep making the same mistakes or bad decisions.

No matter what the punishment was it wasn't too much.  Bottom line...the punishment could've been avoided altogether.
Don't get in trouble and there are zero negative consequences.  Simple concept. 

Was not too far if the reports of 2 other instances are true. Anyone can make a bad decision once. However, you still have to deal with the punishment, but multiple occasions is a pattern. If you truly care about the young man like you claim you do, you wouldn't be worried about too much punishment. You would be glad it wasn't too little. Instead you are concerned with the rest of your teams season.

I don't think any of us would have thought it possible a year ago.  
 
Hopefully my health insurance goes down now....

Forget the past but remember that BC beat WO-S in the 7th grade.

I gather you played for WO-S in 90, 91 and 92.

BC needs to practice one kick 10,000 times this week during practice...and that one kick is the punt!!
It will be a long night for BC if all they do is attempt to run the ball.  WOS has plenty of experience playing teams that run this offense, including playoff opponents that "ran it well".  What we saw from these teams is that once they got down by a few scores, they had to pass.  It has been said that BC could pass if they had to. The problem with passing when you have to....the defense knows you have to as well.

No disrespect, but a few thoughts:
1. Dubois seems to energize his kids, but simply does not integrate the passing phase out of the run, are switch gears when needed. It's not his system. Trouble. 
2. What you did in Pop Warner does not mean it will happen on Friday nights. 
3. The D Line for the Mustangs is flat out talented. I know our history pretty dang well. Might be our best unit ever as a group. Smack. They are just too talented for BC's line. 
4. Mustangs offense probably slices BC's less talented athletes. Just truth. 
5. Barring multiple turnovers, I see no way a sensible person cannot see what's coming. Fine to get hyped, then Tyson punches you. 
6. The coaching staff and team chemistry at WO-S, is simply on another level. Cornel, and company, have elevated the program to memories of yester year. The two best coaches in Southeast, TX are T and Larry Neumann. Giving coach of the year award to Dubois over Cornel a season or two ago, probably fuels Cornel's inner voice. Not good. Game over.  Just the truth to a reasonable, not foggy fan. 
No injuries to either team. Both have some fun times ahead this year. BC runs an offense that gives many defenses headaches. Just not the one wearing silver hats. 
Honest as I know how to be. 

I have a lot of respect for BC and these seniors. A couple of things with this post, tho... There is a BIG difference between passing when you want to and passing when you HAVE no choice. I have heard a million times, "just because we don't doesn't mean we can't", If you aren't throwing during game speed (which it appears you don't) it will not be there consistently when you have to have it. You don't have to believe, you will see.
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to mention the 7th grade, LOL.

This post sums up exactly how I see it. I grew up in Evadale and went to school there, so no reason or me to bash it. The competition for the majority of the season just isn't the same as a bigger school. Basketball is a little different to a certain extent because you don't need as many kids to be at that level. However I don't believe you would ever see a 2A school amass talent like Silsbee currently has. With baseball, a small school can beat a big school on any given night with a pitcher that dominates. However, you will not see the pitching night in and night out that a district such as the Silsbee, WOS, BC district. Then Football is even harder because of the amount of kids required to play. First off most small school kids have to play both ways. That by itself is a huge hit to the level of play. Then as Craig said, there just aren't as many kids that play on a high level like bigger schools. With all that said, I believe he will be fine. He has already exposed himself to that level of competition in 4A and this will just be 1 year. I do not believe he will get better during games this year though. I do hope he pushes them over the top though. I have no idea how good they are as I do not follow them anymore. But adding a football state championship to go along with the basketball and baseball would be pretty cool.

I think he's a keeper! I keep thinking about how close he was to becoming a legend with that warning track fly out w the bases loaded. And he's pretty slick with the glove as well. I say  keep him at 3B and let Marwin platoon in left with Colby.

The law will have to change for that to be acceptable. Would it not be easier if the person being arrested would just comply?
 

Comments like this are where the problems lie. Put yourself in the cops shoes and see how you handle the situation. I'll never take up for all cops, some are as corrupt as anyone. However, anyone who watches the video of this and can see the struggle and blames this on skin color is what is causing problems in this country. I have no idea if this guy deserved to be shot or not, but when he decided to resist arrest, anything from that point on is on him. Black, white or whatever. Making these things a race issue is what leads to what happened in Dallas last night. Instead of always crying victim why don't people comply with police officers and this wouldn't happen nearly as often. Now I absolutely believe there have been instances where cops shot black men that did not deserve to be shot, but they have shot whit men just the same. But screaming racism every time something happens to a black man make this situation worse not better.
