  1. Playoffs? Playoffs?! I do not think they were in any danger of having to worry about playoffs anyhow.
  2. Scored tickets. Guess I will sit amongst the sea of purple. Looking forward to it.
  3. Where can you get tickets for the home side?
  4. I am seeing sold out on both sides. This can't be. Can anyone clarify the situation, or tell me if you have 5-6 tickets you are willing to sale?
  5. What's the ticket situation? Do we have to buy them online or will they be at the gate?
  6. Will tickets be available at the gate for this one?
  7. Do all of these games have options to buy tickets at the gate? If not, does anyone have the online purchasing options?
  8. Do we really believe there are officials, who are working games for pennies, for the sole intent of ensuring one race of kids wins over another race of kids? And even if those guys are out there (which, for clarity, I do not believe they are), do we really believe they would be throwing racial slurs around exposing their nefarious intent during games? Come on man.
  9. This is my yearly reminder that no one signs with D3 colleges. They are committed to show up and play, but there are no ramifications if they decide not to show up or if they go to another school at the last minute. There are no scholarships in D3 so there is nothing to sign. It's still quite the accomplishment, but it irks me when the pageantry associated with a player signing to play football at Alabama is duplicated by someone signing to play football at ETBU. And before anyone comes at me for disrespecting D3 sports, I am not doing that. I played D3 football and understand exactly how talented the kids are out there. Everyone on those D3 fields was first team all district where they came from and can absolutely go. I just hate that we have watered down every thing in today's culture. Sheesh, select baseball players get rings for finishing second place in John's baseball tournament in BFE Texas. Sorry, rant over.
  10. [Hidden Content] Now for personal consequences. See @SmashMouth, the whole team didn't get an assault charge. Consequences are being distributed fairly.
  11. Great decision by Edinburg ISD. They just set precedent and didn't want on the UIL to do it for them. I promise you, we won't see something like this happen again for a long time since everyone now knows how severe the punishments will be.
  12. They knew this kid was a liability and had potential to pop off at any second. The key words in the article posted above are "best defensive player".....that's the only reason he was out there. Kinda like when Jimmy Johnson coined the phrase "Troy Aikman rules". Had this been a second string receiver, he would've never been in a uniform. The district is absolutely responsible for this happening and should be held accountable. One thing I will promise you, if the UIL comes down hard on the school and coach, you will see this behavior come to an immediate end across the state. Adults seem to be able to get this kind of stuff under control when their jobs are contingent on things other than wins and losses. The article indicates the team won the game and earned their first playoff birth in quite some time. The UIL needs to reverse the decision of the game, or immediately disqualify them from being able to participate in the playoffs.
  13. There is video of the soccer incident floating around.....quite similar.
  14. If they really want to fix this, the UIL would punish the school for this kids actions. Forfeit a game, forfeit the season, monetary fine, whatever it takes to ensure coaches address this behavior way before there is an opportunity for this to happen. You shouldn't have to tell a kid not to attack a referee, (or anyone for that matter) but in 2020 things like common decency are not at the forefront of how people parent. Kids who didn't have consequences growing up are parenting kids who do not get consequences due to their parents and it's a damn shame. The only way to prevent it is to make sure the schools know they will suffer greatly if it happens, and force them to make it a part of their programs to ensure this never happens at their school. This is the second recent incident of this nature that I can remember, and it should be made to be the last.
  15. It seemed like when Huffman stopped being so conservative offensively, they began to move the ball and score. Sadly, that wasn’t until there was about 4 min left in the 4th. Great season Falcons! Already looking forward to next year.
  16. Wasn't this the baseball coach at Hull Daisetta that someone thought should be hired as the Livingston AD/HFC?
  17. Saw this reported on Channel 2 last night. What is this kid doing? The season is already going, and colleges are taking notes. Had he apologized, slow played this a bit, he may have gotten a chance at the next level. Now, I'm not sure anyone other than JUCO or D3 will want to touch him. Quannel X?? Lawd.
  18. I don't know, I just think they can do better. Assistant at Hull Daisetta, assistant somewhere in Texas City, HC in New Mexico I believe, then 2-4 in one season at Legacy. If Lumberton is forced to settle for that, they're in bad shape. No shot at Stevens, just an observation.
  19. Just thought I'd dig this up. This hire is looking pretty good these days.
