  1. There's other events that happens at that stadium besides football.
  2. I'll continue calling it what I've been calling it: The Butch.
  3. This is from BillyClydePuckett on Smoaky, he makes some damn good points here: I can solve this problem in a heartbeat. Coaches quit being a jerk to officials ESPECIALLY in sub varsity games you are lucky to have officials. School Administrators start kicking jerk parents and fans out of games. Second time they offend ban them from schools. That silliness will stop overnight. UIL bump Minimum pay for sub varsity games to $100 / game. PLUS mileage. Bump MINIMUM pay for Varsity games to $200 PLUS mileage. And do NOT for one second tell me schools cannot afford this. I was a coach and teacher for thirty years. Every school I ever worked at threw away more money in a week than officials cost. Schools if you want to ensure your kids have officials make Officials WANT to come to your school by paying them in cash THAT night. If your Admin says "we can't do that" (and they can btw its just a little extra work for them god forbid people in Admin have to do that) get booster club to pay them that night. AND Feed them......WELL not a Concession Stand Hotdog either! If your Admin is too inept to pay them in cash AD;s do what it takes to make sure these guys are not waiting for their check for two and three months. And yes this is standard operating procedure for most schools. I've even seen AD'S put officials checks in their desks for weeks to "pay back" officials that they feel did not do a good job. Trust me, officials talk to each other about schools that do a good job of taking care of them and which schools make it REALLY hard to go there. Guess which schools usually have officials and which do not. When you have a shortage of workers it is because of two things. Pay is not high enough and / or the work conditions stink. Eco 101. It is amazing that schools just throw up their hands at the drop of the hat and say "there is nothing we can do" that is BS. Example: 6 Man schools have the hardest time getting officials. Many are having to play sub varsity and Varsity on the same night to address this. I know a place that has Officials FIGHTING to go call games there. Strawn, Texas. They pay in cash AND the HC feeds the Officials no matter what the sport after the games. At Mary's. He has an open tab there for officials. Take a hint. Schools and the UIL better pull their head out of their fourth point of contact. If the current trend holds you will be having coaches call sub varsity games. And your Varsity Schedules will be getting rearragned around when the officials can show up. To sum up show these folks some respect.
  4. [Hidden Content] 😎
  5. I think a certain Crosby RB might've been headed there.
  6. [Hidden Content] Can't wait to see how much he has improved.
  7. I would bet it's alot of places where it's sitting right there in the box but they haven't put it on the racks yet.
  8. Gray took a comebacker to the shin, he'll be fine x-rays were negative. Garcia got hit by a pitch, he'll be fine x-rays were negative as well.
  9. Hopefully it doesn't have you walking to the facilities afterwards 😂
  10. 5-1 dub over the Rays completes the sweep. Back to back sweeps. Day off tomorrow then on to the Dodgers. 💪🏾 Speas is a great addition to the team!
  11. Huge 8th inning due to Heim 3run HR. 5-0 going to the 9th. Hope Gray and Garcia injuries aren't serious.
  12. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] SEC Media Day.
  13. HF concession stand been good going back to when I was in HS late 90s early 2000s. I wonder if Jasper still has those fall off the bone turkey legs though.....
  14. There are some schools who do that currently (freshman and JV) a few weeks in their season. Not sure if it's cause their middle schools play on Thursdays 🤷🏾‍♂️
  15. I seen a clip today that Central Tx Prospects put out and I just shook my head.
  16. 5-3 dub! Going for the sweep tomorrow afternoon 💪🏾
  17. Been watching a few of their games on YouTube, they were damn good last season. Alot of youth too, felt like the whole team was a majority of sophs and juniors. The freshman starter at RB and freshman starter at CB from last season are going to be VERY good!
  18. Wild pitch! Rangers win 3-2! What a game. Was down 2-0 early. I love when Chapman hits the mound, he's firing off 100mph heaters. Great start to the series.
  19. From the DMN: Shortage of football officials is a ‘huge concern’ as high school season approaches. Texas Association of Sports Officials is hoping to find more than 1,000 new officials. [Hidden Content]
