  1. The atmosphere for this gm will be great. Not only is it the Rice
    Bowl but it will be hf seniors first home gm. Hf will also be celebrating 25th anniversary of 1990 roster. I'm taking my horns by a TD in this.

    Just curious as to the significance of the 1990 team?  I watched them play several games that year and they had a decent playoff run.  Has HF started celebrating 25th anniversary teams every year?  EC had a some players that didn't dress out against Tarkington due to injuries.  Silcox being one of them.  Anyone know if HF and EC will be full strength come Friday night?

  2. I've been watching football in the area for a long time and I can say this.... There is WAY too many athletes in Beaumont to keep getting beat down by Nederland and PNG.  Too many coaching changes.  Not enough community support.  Who keeps hiring these coaches that no one likes???  Just keep in mind when you hire a new coach it takes time for him to get his program running.  And if you don't support the coaches, the kids will not believe in them either.  I'm predicting WB to win by 17 because I think they will dominate the line of scrimmage.

  3. I was at the meet and there are several answers to your question.  First off many kids don't run track because they "don't want to".  Back in the day you ran track if you were in athletics.  This was a small school meet and 3 of the schools still have basketball teams in the playoffs so they didn't have most of their faster athletes at the meet. My son ran the mile at around 9pm.  It was about 40 degrees with about a 15 mile an hour wind.  Several schools had left by then.  The mile relay was after the mile.  So the results were skewed to say the least.  Overall times in track now are much faster than they were in 1976.  They set new records each year at the State Track Meet. 

  4. Kville takes this one. Be prepared Kats when you win this one it's more than likely EC will still be in front of you on this poll. I'm sure HJ will be also with a loss from WOS. What's that tell you?? Home boys don't get no respect. Newton knows the feeling.. Go kick EC a$$..

    You earn respect on the field....not from some silly poll.  I don't know why anyone gets upset or even cares about this poll???

  5. Some of you guys are not to Be Taken Serious...Buna and Kirbyville are in a Whole different category than The rest of the District...EC is not good enough to beat niether

    We will see about that on Friday night.  We will show up on Friday and play football.  Our coaches coach well and our players play hard and believe in themselves.  It is a recipe that has worked well for 20 years.  I guess that is why you don't see many EC fans talking trash on here and promising that we will beat the brakes off of our opponent.  I understand that you are excited because Buna has a pretty good team this year and you havn't enjoyed an overly high amount of success lately in football.  I would be remissed if it didn't tell you to keep winning year in and year out and you will learn how to do it gratiously.  Now get back to class boy before the tardy bell rings. 

     

    I'm looking forward to a great game and hope everyone gets through the game and back home safely.

  6. Not to stir up anything, but just because a person states their opinion on here about the score or how they think it will turn out is not necessarily smack talk or "run off at the mouth". Also it does not mean they don't know how to handle it a little success. I took Cat's comment as he thought there would be more discussion "not smack talk" about the upcoming game and how people felt the outcome will be of the game. There was not many EC fans to begin with posting anything about their thoughts about either team. Just my opinion. 

    Goodluck to all the coaches and players in this one for Tarkington and EC. Going to be a good one. Like Socrates said it will be a good test for the Longhorns.

    Trust me I wasn't talking about you or any of the Tarkington fans.  If you read many of the threads on here you will see a few people that talk about their team kicking everyone's butt and so on and on and on and on.  In our district we cannot hardly "have any discussion" without some of these guys taking over the thread with 20 pages of posts about how they are gonna beat everyone down.  I haven't seen Tarkington play in several years.  Our team is not very big this year but we have some speed and our kids will always play hard.  We are proud of our team and coaching staff because of the way they play and act on and off the field.  What is Tarkington looking like this year??

  7. I thought EC had a bigger following on here?

    We read the board but don't post too much.  Rather do our thing on the field.  We've been in the playoffs for close to 20 years in a row so there is no need to constantly run off  at the mouth like a few of the posters on here do.  I guess they are just now seeing some success with their program and don't know how to handle it.  As far as predictions go, I think EC has too much speed for Tarkington and will get the win.  I don't think any team will go unbeaten this year in our district.
