  1. Doesn't Brenham have to get through a pretty good Consolidated team first?
  2. So help me to understand this mentality if you don't mind. How exactly do you feel that your complaining from the stands is helping the team, coaches, or program? You do realize that the coaches can't hear you right? and if they could it is unlikely they would make changes based on your suggestions....so what is your goal here? Let's say that you go to a movie, and I'm sitting next to you, and I start hollering about how the movie is all wrong, the lighting is off...the lines are weak, the acting is bad etc. and you look over at me and ask me to shut up...so I come back with "I paid my 7 bucks so I can say whatever I want, I've been watching movies for 30 years and I know all about them, when I see something wrong I'm calling it out, and if you don't like it then you can move" would that be acceptable behavior in your mind? of course not...so why is it any different at the football game? I can only think of two reasons why you and guys like you carry on the way you do 1) therapy- you use criticizing coaches as a release from the stresses of day to day life...I get that, it feels good to able to let people have it sometimes 2) attention - for some reason you really want the people around you to think you are a guru of football, like maybe you'll get some respect or maybe some more dates if people know you as the resident football expert of row 15 either way...it sure seems shallow to me that you regularly tear down a group of hard working and long suffering people in front of their friends and families to make yourself feel good or to get people to look at you
  3. I don't get how we can say there is no "human linkage"...you aren't asking for realistic, logical conclusions, you have put yourself into a position where no amount of reasoning will change your mind, like a juror in a murder case who won't convict on a mountain of evidence because they have seen too much NCIS and they want some dang DNA here's what is known: CO2 traps heat in the atmosphere humans release a lot of CO2 by burning fossil fuels since humans starting releasing a lot of CO2 into the air...earth has gotten hotter do you really need more than that? If I stop on the scale and weigh in at 180 lbs...then I go grab a 20 pound dumbbell and get back on the scale, now my weight is 200lbs......does it makes sense for me to say "We can't just blame the extra weight on the dumbbell! it was probably natural phenomenon! My weight has been fluctuating my whole life...I just happened to go up at the same time as I grabbed that dumbbell and got back on the scale, the dumbbell weighs nothing..I heard about a dude over in Alaska who grabbed the dumbbell and got lighter!..so that means there is no dumbbell problem...we must never blame the dumbbell!!!!! look I hate the government with a purple passion.......and I get that politicians are probably eaten up over how using global warming as an excuse they can demand more powers from the people...I hate the thought of it honestly...but the two things don't have to go together...just because this is a serious world wide issue doesn't mean that we need the government to fix it...if anything they would definitely make it worse
  4. I love the cognitive dissonance at play when somebody says the scientists are all lying in the relentless pursuit of money assume you have no more than a high school scientific foundation (me) and really don't care that much about the global warming debate (me) because ya figure it's all coming to an end sometime and it might as well be sooner rather than later #nolivesmatter so anyways....working from that viewpoint...which scenario is more likely scenario 1) lots of different people who study climate science have purposely created a fictional narrative about how human behavior is heating the planet to catastrophic levels, they are motivated to do this for the following reasons A - to make themselves and their careers very important B - to get more government funding for their lavish lifestyles C - as part of a leftist plot to overthrow big corporations and create a new world order communist government scenario 2) it appears that the release of CO2 is killing the planet, people who have made their fortunes, or currently make a living the in the oil/gas/fracking/refining industry can plainly see that if this is true, than the government might step in and promote the use of energy sources that could very well cost millions of jobs and completely destroy the economy of the place they live. In response to this..it is much easier to find articles that support that position you really want to hear anyway, which is that the earth is doing just fine, nothing to see here, carry on as usual. I hold no ill will against anybody for believing in the first scenario..heck it might be true..i just doesn't sound very plausible to me...i know that if my livelihood depended on the oil industry...i'd be much happier believing in that then admitting to myself that i'm contributing to a major problem... really though who cares.....I read while back that in order to reverse the affects of GW we'd have to immediately revert to the energy expenditure of a nation like kenya......that ain't happening...if the damage is done it's done..I say bring on the mad max post apocalyptic world already
  5. Lagarious is a good one, there was also a Melton kid who played with that group that moved to celina, is a D1 recruit and has started on the O-line for them..it is really was a loaded class. it's no coincidence that Dayton is struggling a little bit and Liberty is doing so well. If you wan't your new coach to succeed over there on your side of the river, don't ask old coach Stewart about X's and O's...ask him about how to do a better job recruiting Liberty
  6. The Spartans of ancient Greece were one of the toughest warrior cultures in human history...they took homosexuality as a matter of course. Alexander who conquered the known world was the occasional lover of his warlord and best friend...being accepting of homosexuality has nothing to do with weakness..the only weakness is intolerance..a sad weakness of intelligence and character
  7. I'm with Jesse Ventura I believe patriotism comes from the heart. Patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief. A patriot shows their patriotism through their actions, by their choice.Chapter 391 is not about choice. In Chapter 391, the State mandates patriotic actions and displays. Our government should not dictate actions. The United States of America exists because people wanted to be free to choose. All of us should have free choice when it comes to patriotic displays... a government wisely acting within its bounds will earn loyalty and respect from its citizens. A government dare not demand the same. There is much more to being a patriot and a citizen than reciting the pledge or raising a flag. Patriots serve. Patriots vote. Patriots attend meetings in their community. Patriots pay attention to the actions of government and speak out when needed. Patriots teach their children about our history, our precious democracy and about citizenship. Being an active, engaged citizen means being a patriotic American every day. No law will make a citizen a patriot. - In response to his veto of a bill that would have required school students to recite the pledge of allegiance
  8. seriously X family live free for 500years Y family lives under captivity for 350 130 sort of free 70years as free as X family. What family would you bet on to be more further ahead. This is no less true for poor white kids living in those trailers over in kenefick than it is for poor black kids in any other town...poverty and getting out of poverty is a problem all by itself, it doesn't belong to a certain skin color. I honestly thing that racial tension is a convenient way for the powerful to divide the rest of us. If it weren't for racial tensions, we might look around and decide that the real thing "holding us down" are government regulations that stifle opportunities and draconian drug laws that serve only to put poor people in prisons and fix nothing, but instead of working class people uniting, marching and slinging batteries at deluded and corrupt government officials, we're too busy arguing at each other about a the protest of some football player forget all the black/white statistics.....I'd be willing to bet that 99.999999% of the people who get beat up or shot by police are living at or below the poverty line, nobody in a gated community driving a lexus causes cops to "fear for their lives"
  9. I think this guy does a good job explaining it from the side of democratic congressman, there is a musical part and then it shows him talking, right at one minute in..
  10. You sir, are correct I have failed miserably I thought I had climbed high atop the mountain of high school football internet message board greatness with my "inside information" only to find out that this "in"formation was really "out"formation I am reminded of young icarus who flew just a tad too close to the sun thank you for humbling me this is very similar to the story of a group of extremely vocal internet posters who spent a ton of time talking about how great their team was and were making plans to attend the state title game only to be soundly defeated in the 2nd round.
  11. Word I got is they did the spring game in the middle of the day without pads so as to lower the amount of parents screaming at the coaching staff, it has apparently always been an issue but a few select "fans" are getting out of hand with it, coach would just as soon get his work in without having his players have to hear him and his staff be questioned every few minutes
  12. yes...I did...a transgender woman would be a person who is biologically male that identifies as female, if you use gender related pronouns it would be appropriate to call this person "her" and "she"...so "transgender woman" answers your question, talking about a woman with a wiener...
  13. seems to me that we have a way bigger problem with pedophilia in the priesthood than in the transgender world, so If we're just playing the law of averages and managing risk i'd go with the tranny, just my personal opinion on the matter
  14. so don't hold hands or kiss your wife in public, homosexuals find it disgusting, keep your weird hetero fetishes secret, stop throwing it in the face of the rest of world
  15. sorry...don't get much time in front of the computer yes I'd have no problem with a transgender woman going to the same bathroom as my daughter (who is four) at the same time I'd be much more wary of letting my son who (7) spend time alone with a priest
  16. It's a fair point, let's not forget that it wasn't very long ago that a lot of good southerners weren't comfortable with black men being in the same room as white women, idea being that black men weren't capable of controlling themselves and were likely to start raping at the drop of a hat. I know that none of you guys feel this way now, I'm just giving one example of what BLUEDOVE is talking about. Perceptions can change, a lot of people take time to get their head around new ways of thinking, it doesn't make you stupid or backwards or anything like that, nothing wrong with being stubborn, it's a virtue in most instances.In the same way that we (hopefully) think our grandparents ideas about race were misguided, I think that a few generations from now most of the world will have very different Ideas about gender than we hold now. Whether the superintendent at PNG likes it or not.
  17. well I still think you're pretty cool
  18. in our current culture no, it has been seen by most as a kink/quirk at best and a mental illness at worst, this perception is changing whether anybody likes it or not. The idea that a person's gender (how they feel inside) and a person's biology (the reproductive organs attached to their body) might not exactly match up is becoming more understood, I don't think these people want to throw anything into our faces, I think they just want to be treated like normal people instead of outcasts. For whatever reason, the political wing of religious right have latched onto this issue as one of their cultural battlegrounds, I suppose it does go against biblical teaching of the creation of adam/eve..but it seems like such a small thing to me that I don't understand why it has become such a big deal. It's like how a guy on his third divorce didn't like gay marriage because of the "sanctity of marriage"...it wasn't ever about the institution of marriage, it was about wanting to keep gays marginalized and on the fringe because you think their lifestyle is wrong....same principal applies here...don't mask it up as protecting kids....just way what you mean, you think transgender people are making a sinful lifestyle choice and you don't think society should accommodate for it...fine..roll with that
  19. I don't remember all the details and don't care to look it up...but wasn't there a well respected teacher in lumberton (maybe it was another town) that brought burkas into her classroom as part of their study on islam/the middle east and some wingnut saw an opportunity and caused a big stink about how they were "teaching the kids to be muslim" or some such nonsense......the people continue to do this to you mouth breathers because they know it works, play to the deepest fears of people and they will abandon all reason I don't know who cavness is and I'm sure he is heartfelt, but he could have ignored the order from the DOE without making a big spectacle of it, he didn't have to do interviews with news stations and give his opinion of the president, this is less about kids and more about a man promoting himself as much as possible as a champion of the people the bathrooms scare issue has nothing to do with safety of kids anyway...it's a straw man because people are too gutless too say what they really feel, they don't want transgender to become common in society, they see it as another battleground to keep the influence of religion on social norms...they lost gay marriage and this is the next big fight...but what you don't understand is that it's already lost, I hate the government putting their noses into the schools business as much as anybody, but whether this law succeeds or fails, the culture is changing on its own, without influence of government or the church
  20. congratulations to that superintendent for deciding to run for public office at some point in the future! paycheck says he's running for something on the "protect your kids" platform in the next three years reminds me of the lowlife that threw the lumberton teacher under the bus to score political points so he could win some mickey mouse election over there, at least cavness didn't actually publicly harm anybody directly, but I'm guess that if there are any transgendered kids at that school they probably aren't feeling too welcome right now
  21. Just gonna leave this here [Hidden Content]
  22. I like it when they say a team "has that killer instinct"...I have no idea what that means. I mean I know what the people who say it think it means, but it doesn't make any sense. If a team loses a lot of close games, they don't have that killer instinct...I mean do we really think that the team stops playing hard late in the game? Or is is more likely that they are good enough to play with other teams but not necessarily good enough to beat them, or maybe just have had a run of bad luck late in games my other favorite is a coach that "can't win the big game" .....seems to me that every game is pretty big, especially in district..but a guy loses in the 3rd round and people go all "he can't win the big game"....it's pretty easy to just wait until a team loses and then go "see....see...that was the BIG GAME and he couldn't win it".......pretty much everybody who doesn't win the whole thing can't win the BIG GAME
  23. sorry it was vague, I was killing the messenger on that one, but you have to admit that site seems suspicious. I do think it is patently ridiculous to assume that pedophiles will receive some form of special treatment under the law, but you guys go ahead and worry about that if you want to
  24. I can't speak for what may or may not ever happen ever, so no...just raising the point that we should probably question information which comes from a site that so obviously panders to the fears of the far-right of Limbaugh crowd with little regard for actual facts. Pedophiles? It's definitely a mental issue, what else could explain it? (other than a red guy with a pointy tail who lives in a bad place) OOOOOH YOU SAY THAT ITS OKAY TO BE GAY BUT HOW IS THAT DIFFERENT IF SOMEBODY IS A PEDO OOOH GOT YOU OOH It's not the same thing, pedophiles destroy the lives of children who have the ability to consent, there are victims.....the only victims of homosexual set between adults are the butt hurt conservatives who are really just upset that they don't get to join in
  25. awesome source! Racism No, really.[39] Voted the funniest news of 2014.[40] WND regularly runs stories that engage in base racism, often focusing on white fears of violent blacks. The website regularly features the work of journalist and alleged human being Colin Flaherty, who has "done more reporting than any other journalist on what appears to be a nationwide trend of skyrocketing black-on-white crime, violence and abuse." Some choice articles from Flaherty and other people who can type employed by WND include: "White Girl: I'm Tired of Being Looked At Like Prey."[41] "Take a stroll, wake up in hospital thanks to black mob"[42] A scoop that "Corpulent women of color" in the TSA[wp] are molesting white people as revenge for the murder of Trayvon Martin.[43] "PACK OF BLACK YOUTH TERRORIZE CITY"[44] "Combat soldiers no match for black mob ...[45] "BLACK-ON-WHITE BEATINGS LEAVE MORE DEAD"[46] "BLACK-MOB VIOLENCE DESTROYS U.S. LANDMARK"[47] "Black Mobs Plague Nightclubs Coast to Coast"[48] "It's only new if you have been aggressively ignoring the epidemic of black mob violence."[49] "Whistleblower: Philadelphia flooded with black mob violence."[50] The site also advertises Flaherty's book White Girl Bleed a Lot, which argues that "groups of black people have been roaming the streets of America – assaulting, intimidating, stalking, threatening, vandalizing, stealing, shooting, stabbing, even raping and killing."[51] It got to the point where Google Ads cut off service to them as a "hate site."[52]
