    where do you draw the line? 

    National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a group based on race.

    as long as you have groups based on race you will have division. 

    the problem with groups like these is they don't want to be treated EQUAL they want to be treated SPECIAL.  

    You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.  

    There where whites that help start this organization; The same organization that was at the forefront of women's rights. The organization does not restrict membership from anyone. They promote civil rights. Guess what? Even yours. 

    Fact checker: Look at what briefs they have filed with the Supreme Court. Have they stood with Blacks in a lot of situations? Of course. The results:  We moved from separate facilities(schools, bathrooms, restaurants). Have you benefited from their success? Think about your "civil rights" every time you're arguing with someone about carrying a gun or buying an assault weapon. And, remember, it does not only apply to you!

  2. He did say that the score is usually 50 - 0 at halftime. By the start of the 4th, all starters are removed. You cannot expect the 2nd & 3rd string players to lay down. They trying to prove themselves. If you listen to his reasoning behind playing 3 quarters instead of 2 - stamina in the playoffs - you can understand the why.

  3. I remembered the dropping down in division. I always believed that was nitrous for your program. I knew you were competitive because we played you. Yates was a beast in the 80's. There was some NFL players on that team. You shared more detail than outsiders had been privy to. I still believe you could compete in 6A at least on a local level. WOS dominance then and now (30+ yrs) is the reason I believe you are the premier football powerhouse in the area.

    No.  Absent the special teams that the Eagles had over the last few years, the Mustangs should take the Eagles, just as I would expect Memorial or West Brook to take the Mustangs, yet that doesn't make them more of a football powerhouse than West Orange-Stark.

    Also, the Eagles have been on their current run for about 12-15 years longer than the Mustangs have.  The current run for the Eagles began about 1970 while the Mustangs didn't start their playoff roll until 1985.

    The Eagles haven't missed the playoffs in 32 years (1988).  The Mustangs have missed the playoffs 5 times (1992-although that was due to forfeit, 1999, 2001, 2002, 2003) in that same period.

    The Mustangs are a HUGE football powerhouse and just about any other team in this area wouldn't stack up.  But the Eagles aren't any other team.

    Do you remember what happened to jump start the Mustangs playoff roll in the 80's?

    Not exactly. Two things, you guys are confusing Earnest with his older brother Rodkale (already graduated last year).

    Also, they have not been at EC very long, they moved in from Beaumont in 2017, IIRC. 

    Rodkale is not his older brother. His older brother already graduated, but the brothers do look alike. He did move from Bmt, but he's been there since his freshman year.

  7. Don't know what to think about this hiring. I'm not impressed. Gonna have to give him a chance though. It reminds me of the way they hired Central coaches (through the homeboy network). Based on BU history, he can only go up. Time will tell.

    BISD  used coaches that weren't full time employees. In the past there were pt coaches used at the high school level (check the news) and there are some current volunteer coaches at middle school.

    My exact thoughts...... I am not a idiot, and did rather well in math......... But its back to participant ribbons and trophies......

    They watered the district down when they started letting every body go to the playoffs. What happened to the winner and the runner up? They giving  out green ribbons and bubblegum during the season. We better watch out. Pretty soon all our kids will catch is the ice cream truck.
