    Sell the naming rights. 
    Nobody can argue for turning down money just to keep a controversial name posted.

    CardinalBacker got a reaction from little d in Allen DeShazo Named New Bridge City HC/AD!   
    BC isn’t a football town. The kids, PARENTS, and community aren’t willing to do what it takes to have a winning program. I mean, they wouldn’t mind winning... unless it meant getting sweaty. 
    Coach Dubois is, in my opinion, easily one of the top ten “x &o”coaches in the area, and the absolute best leader of young men. BC will not likely see another coach of his caliber in our future. 
    Band parents didn’t like that he had the band  removed from the sidelines during the actual games... so they complained. There were too many “why don’t they throw the ball more... we’ve already ran that play five times” from Day One. Ummm... because BC isn’t a qb factory. Year before last we beat teams with multiple D1 recruits with a bunch of kids that had one kid move one to play at a D2 school. One. That’s coaching. 
    A lot of heat came up last year when one of the star players was injured in practice. The parents were very vocal in blaming Coach Dubois for that injury... plenty of others were quick to join in. 
    I’d have gone back to HJ, too

    CardinalBacker got a reaction from LCMAlumtiger32 in 2017 Carthage v 2016 WOS   
    No way to tell... both teams were really special. 
    I think Carthage would probably be the winner based on the tests that they face through the non-district, distict, and playoffs. Better facilities that could give an edge in game prep and treatment, their consistent play on turf, and just having more talented kids suited up. 
    It would still be hard to count the Legend of Jack Dallas out, though.
    I’d be pulling for WOS, btw.

    I appreciated the link provided. In fact, I thought Shapiro was particularly tactful by not even addressing the content in his post.... just a link. 
    I don’t follow local news closely, so it’s doubtful that I would have ever known what happened had it not been for Shapiro’s posting. 
    It seems like some people don’t like the message and feel like attacking the messenger. 
    Honestly, if you haven’t talked with your young athlete about EXACTLY what happened to Blain, your missing a good opportunity.

    I think Silsbee is really gonna benefit from dropping to 4AD2. Guaranteed ticket to the Regional Finals vs WOS in my opinion.... 
    somebody correct me if #1 and #2 in a particular district face each other before the fourth round.

    All jokes aside, I’ll bet a home playoff game at the Reservation would be an experience that would beat the socks off any game played in a 1/4 filled Texan Drive Stadium.

    Disagree.  By and large we are all simply a product of our choices whether they be good or bad.  I don't think simply sharing a link that sheds light on what transpired takes away from the young man..We all make mistakes. Many of us are fortunate to not pay the ultimate price while many others are not. If anything it should serve as a cautionary tale as well as a great opportunity for others to educate themselves and loved ones on the dangers of opioids.

    You are very right my fine Sir, Life is Politics. It has never been and never will be about WHAT you know or WHAT you can do. It is and always will be about WHO you know and WHO you chew bubble gum with.
    My time in Livingston has passed with a number of fond memories and some life long friendships. One day in my more golden years, I might run for the school board and see if I can be a voice of change.
    There are a number of factors that went into the School Boards decision and they are well within their rights to hire whomever they choose. I know for a fact that a certain faction of the board holds a personal vendetta against Randy Rowe and anybody ever associated with him, which is truly sad.
