A lot of stadiums carry an individual's name . It's common. Butch is fine.

Since BISD is urging unity, and this is strictly a BISD issue, it’s to bad there’s not some way the people in the district could vote on a new name, or keeping it The Butch for that matter.  It’s their stadium.

I think the game with DP will be for 4th place.  They are switching to the spread so they may be beatable as they adjust 

That game against Laporte is going to be tough! But United should beat CE King, Channelview, and Sterling. 

Not saying it can't happen.  NS started a freshman at QB last year so anything is possible.........

Depends on how the UIL places WB.  As long as there's a Northshore and or LaPorte out there plus United across the freeway, he may shine but not as bright in the ocean that is 6A........

I think PAM will do very well.  Morgan had a little grin on his face when asked about the offense.  They'll be much better than people outside of PA expect.  We know the D will be dominant, but word is the passing game will be electric and Hopkins could be dynamic in the run game.  I think Morgan had that grin for a reason.

Trust and believe, I stay out of Bubble Business unless provoked the vast majority of the time
But as a current and long time BISD taxpayer, which knows the theft didn't begin in 1996 due to briefly working for said district, I think you and other should stay out of it period.  Do unto others for a change.  You don't have to sit on your high horse and rain down judge for every single thing.  
 

Actually I spoke with the folks at FSW, it's all about #4 state ranked Silsbee.

No problem.  I can answer.  The other guy was much worse than Thomas.  My whole 12 years of school, I believe was under him.  There were textbooks that were 2/ years old when I was a kid.  There were horrible buildings, namely, my old middle school that was literally falling apart. Everything like water and mold in the auditorium, band halls in portable buildings with urine smells everywhere..  and lastly, my old high school was even falling apart then, 20 years ago.  Nothing was done, there were no plans of nothing being done.  That guy disappeared into the sunset and no one talks about him.  
Thomas came in and helped get a lot of stuff done that was been overdue.  These things happened happened in his watch.  Brand new schools, New stadium.  The demolition of the old south park middle school, that prior, had rodent, insect, rust, and mold issues, much to the dismay of old South Park High School alum, whom almost non of them even lives in Beaumont anymore.  
 
Anyway, I started rambling a bit, I'm sorry.
The need for a stadium was needed with Lamar getting their football program going and Oxen having no home stadium. Also, Durley and Babe Zaharius stadiums were deteriorating fast.  Durley, bleacher and lighting issues and Babe, leveling issues and 'other things'.  
The stadium was built and many was happy about the moves that were made.  It a just that he rubbed the detractors the wrong way, the Same ones that were against change and was very content under that previous Superintendent.  I'm sure he didn't have a negative impact on their kids....

No its us that are laughing at you. We aren't the ones worried about anything Bridge City but you guys sure care a lot about Beaumont. But, if that's what you need to tell yourself. lol... Wouldn't your time be better spent on getting clean water to that city. lol...

Seriously! Beaumont ISD was never taken over on Thomas' watch. And if you have no idea on the state of BISD before Thomas then you should shut the hell up! Fact is the man is high respected and recognized everywhere but southeast Texas, go figure. So now you want the ability to tell people who they can vote for. SMDH... Can we check your voting record cause we know damn well you voted for some crooks. And if you're a Bridge City Cardinal backer then why do you care so much about what the name of BISD's football stadium is?

I wasn't actually referring to you.  I was referring to 'City Leaders' that's the main ones pushing for this entire miserable masquerade.  
The current name of the stadium isn't hurting anyone.  It's a football stadium.  A high school stadium at that.  Certain city leaders need to focus on pressing city issues, and trust me, there's a laundry list of them.  And BISD should focus on their pressing issues, laundry list for them too,  it a stadium name should be the last thing, imo.  Actually, after listening to the board meeting yesterday, our superintendent shares my sentiments.

I COMPLETELY agree.  There are schools in Beaumont that are academically unacceptable.  That should be the focus.  There's enforcing zonings.  There's many pressing issues to be concerned about vs. the name of a damn stadium.  

Awesome 

They should start their own home-school league.  Don't wanna be part of the populous, start your own 

DUH!!!!! McMillian of PAM IS the TOP defensive lineman in the area.

No need to, Dave Campbell did that for me.  The Mustangs won 7 games last year, regardless of who they played and DC thinks more of them then he does the Patriots.  I'm just trying to entertain you while I have some free time.  Besides the PA folks, you won't have many people to talk to this year on this forum concerning 9-5A DI.
Like I tell my boys (a Senior and Junior for United) and his teammates, if you don't like the 6th place prediction that Dave Campbell gave you, go out there and prove him/them wrong...

WOS Grad will be releasing his team preview starting tomorrow.  The SETX previews, Dave Campbell's magazine and the other local publication that will be released soon is all you need to get ready for football season. 
PA Memorial will have more competition in their 3 non-district games (Deer Park, Houston Madison & Beaumont United) than their district ones...

Like I told a die hard Memorial fan, like a hot knife through butter.  That's PA Memorial in their new district....

PA over Everbody

The cat from WB.  Big fish in an ocean which is 6A........

Port Arthur already knows about him.  A lot a people have been patiently waiting.  I know old Buddy Garrity is a supporter.  

QBs are over-rated. 
Slot T!!!!
