  1. Thanks
    LTFALCON got a reaction from SmashMouth in Duncanville Gloves??   
    Rule for telling kids they cant wear RED gloves if the opposing team is wearing red? No UIL rule for this at all.

    I believe there is quite the shortage of officials across the state. With all of the expert officials we have on the SETX message board, you should be able to put together quite the crew! Hahahahaha

    From reading the article MBG posted I think the PAM coach feels he would have the advantage in the rain, so it may not move for that reason alone. LOL the only mud these kids see is from the bus to the locker rooms😂

    I totally get kids being burned out of baseball. The best athletes play multiple sports and each sport requires a different set of skills that make you a better all around athlete. I know I burned one of my boys out and put too much pressure on him.  I should have enjoyed the moments more than PUSHING him to do better and be PERFECT. 3-4 is a great day and I questioned the one AB that he took for strike 3. Yes he did get to college and yes he was done after his first year and it was totally my fault. Parents, learn from myself and other parents that push their kids to get this D1 scholarship and play at the next level. Spent countless amounts of money on travel ball, hotels, Perfect game crap, on and on and on.......Now i am sitting back wishing I would have enjoyed these moments watching MY BOY just play ball. Sorry but just my admittance to being an over bearing prick to my kids when they were just wanting to go play ball without all that pressure from Dad. If I could do it over again!!!!!!!!!!!

    Neither to be honest. Don't live in the Commons. Not on booster club. Don't go up to watch football practices. Don't send emails cuz little Johnny isn't playing like Dad thinks he should. Ummm ya so Mr. CougarCal........I don't have money and I don't have status. But what I do have is 2 kids that went through the HH program and played next level.

    🤯Well nothing  like airing out frustration on SETX message board. If you had issues with the staff, should have been discussed privately with HC and AD. Sorry your child is going through some tough times, but bringing up 2 boys through their program, I cant say I have experienced any of that with this staff. You ask both of my kids, they will reflect back and say nothing but good about their HS coaches at HH. Good luck with you and your sons issues.

    LTFALCON got a reaction from SmashMouth in SETX referees   
    Dude I get it. I have been through this twice with both of my boys playing college ball. I totally understand the frustration. Its not about the pay is really what I am getting at. People do NOT want to officiate and those that get into it, usually don't last because there is so much criticism on these guys. The film get reviewed weekly, coaches give their writeups, crew chiefs respond, and they try to learn from mistakes. Its really up to that official to give 100% for the kids, coaches and all the parents involved. There are some crappy officials that are collecting the little 100 bucks and dont really take pride it what they do. But for the most part, most of the officials I know live and breathe it and officiate to their best ability. Again, I totally understand your frustration. Hugs! LOL

    Me and my son have a tradition.  This time of year, at the end of the game, we don't leave until all the players are off the field.  We stand and wait out of respect, and we cry.  We started doing this years ago when my oldest was at Crosby.  At the end of season and playoff games, there is always a couple players that stay on the grass as long as the can.  For most of these young men, they will never put on a helmet again.  We watched young men refuse to leave, push their teammates away, trying desperately to grasp the moment like they are trying to hold on to castles in the sand.
    Its a big moment, some of the things we love and the journeys we take come to an end.  The tide will rise, and the waves of time will reclaim what is rightfully theirs.
    There are precious things in this life that will come to an end, and many times, when and how it will end is not your choice.  
    I hear ya, "its just football".  But I would ask you to take a moment, after the band stops playing and the scoreboard is turned off, stand up and look.  Life in all its splendor and tragedy is unfolding before you.  
    It's more than just football.

    All in the Family, Sanford and Son, both great shows.   In a time we could laugh at ourselves.   Notice how few comedians there are now?   PC (which I hate) has made Funny a thing of the past.
    But since we have to be serious, High School Football is the best entertainment left.   I think the Falcons - Pirates game will be a fine example of that.   Just hope no injuries and good refs.
