“Coach Jones, and I have to ask you to be frank here today.... have you ever forced a child to perform squat thrusts or bear crawls? This district WILL NOT have our children subjected to those archaic forms of degradation and punishment.”

What radius around SETX do I have to blindly support? Do I also have to blindly support local schools? If that’s the case, how can you support TB after he left the great state of Texas to go play at Alabama? 
You sound like one of those “everybody deserves a trophy” kinda guys. At the end of the day, I’m free to cheer for whoever I want, and perfectly within my rights to root against whoever I want.... regardless of my proximity to that person’s place of rearing. Get over yourself. 

Add Mar-A-Lago to mine, at least for a few years

That’s not a very good argument. First off, the “average homeowner” typically doesn’t pay the majority of these taxes. The average homeowner owns a moderate house that enjoys a homeowner’s exemption. The guy with the $350K+ house will be paying a lot more than “coffee and doughnut” money. Even harder hit is the guy with multiple properties or a business owner. So, while YOU might be giving up a dozen donuts a month, there are very real consequences for people who have made better financial decisions and consequently have a little more “skin in the game.” 
The schools always stand ready to accept any donations that you should voluntarily choose to make, my generous (with other peoples’ money) friend.

I think you can find areas lacking at most SETX fields. I agree with Buna being near the bottom. 
Ours is weak, but they’re making a few upgrades on a yearly basis. There’s a difference between dated and bad. Prletty much any school in the OC would be dated and probably overdue for a retrofit or new facility. 
Livingston was inadequate 40 years ago, and nothing had really changed. Nederland would be at the bottom of that old district if not for Livingston. 
I wonder why there isn’t a concerted effort by athletic booster clubs to secure outside funding specifically for those improvements, specifically turf fields. WOS could practically play with the lights off and just rely on the glow from the refineries. You’ll never convince me that Dupont, Lanxess, Firestone, Chevron, wouldn’t be willing to make a charitable neighborly contribution to get turf installed. You know, the old “for a dontion of ______ you can install a _________ sized sign in the end zone thanking you for providing our playing surface for a term of ten years.”

I wish this would go away.

CardinalBacker, the refs were indeed blind and lived in Countryside courts, Parkland Cir.

They did beat the breaks off Bridge City so guess that kinda cancels out you talking any kinda smack about Newton lol

If Newton beats WOS and Gilmer convincingly next year, then Newton Fan can feel free to speculate about who “they would have beaten” after next season. Facts are facts... Newton didn’t face a team anywhere near as good as these two at any point last year. 
As Ric Flair said.... “to be The Man, you’ve got to at least play somebody who was worth a crap before you start bumping your gums.” Or something like that. 

Not really.
When we do beat Newton they cry about the refs, facing a bigger school, having to ride a school bus instead of a charter, etc....
 

Your obsession and jealousy is quite amusing...

So the Newton world beaters will have 2 losses going into district? It will be good to bring their fans back down to earth. But don't worry, they will run thru 3a D2. Don't think there is any doubt if they are the best team in their division or not. 
This reminds me of the Mighty Carthage Bulldogs fans who used to talk like some of the Eagle fans some years ago. In 2013 Carthage returned pretty much everybody from a team that played in the semi-final in 2012. The 2013 Dawgs had 5 future D1 players including Blake Bogenshutz who passed for 50+ TD in 2013, and Carthage's all time leading rusher. Carthage literally ran thru every 3a team in the state that season. The closest game they played was a 28-14 win over WOS in the R3 final. They went 15-1 that season. The one loss was a pretty bad one. Carthage who was the #1 team in the state in 3a met up with the #3 team in the state in 4a Whitehouse. Whitehouse had a future top 10 draft pick playing QB that year. Mahomes and Bogie had dueled it out in 2012, with Whitehouse winning 29-27. In 2013 this was the biggest game in NETX. #1 vs #3. This was for all the 3a teams that said they could compete with the top of 4a. Carthage came out firing in that game. Went up 39-20 in the middle of the 3rd quarter. Carthage fans thinking they are the best thing since sliced bread. And then the depth of Whitehouse and Pat Mahomes flipped a switch. Whitehouse scored 49 straight points in 1-1/2 quarters. Final score was 69-39. Carthage went on to destroy class 3a. Whithouse finished 12-1 losing in the 3rd round of the 4a D2 playoffs. I have never run my mouth about beating teams from higher divisions since.
Newton going to get some of that this season. It's ok. All the top programs have to be humbled from time to time.

Told you

It would have and I think "they" didn't want the backlash from other communities outside the communities that the kids come from.  But it's ok to use any other Presidents name...

Y'all keep on complaining about BF and some of his decisions.  Y'all going to freak out when that list comes out next week of the coaches that put in for the Ozen-Central job and his name is on there...
