I know people who do this, a lot actually lol...just another bullet for exiting retail because not only are margins low but they are low and people can easily get the info w/o paying Others will say " I can get my info online for free" which is true...but where do most of those people who claim to be insiders get their info? Lol Almost like cutting off your nose to spite you face deal, because if DCTF stopped existing many of those folks wouldn't have their info any longer

We are doing quite well at the moment, the brand is more profitable than its ever been because we've gotten more diverse, adapted to the changing marketplace and invested in our talented people. We've grown our staff on the editorial side over the last three years and added to our sales team as well. We will see if this new approach works but I can tell you over the past ten years margins on the retail side have consistently dropped as the marketplace as changed and the consumer base is more tech savvy.

Just giving an example they are not just in large cities

Carthage Wal-Mart has them

This is a very silly and uninformed comment

I have no idea, I just know it was less than last year

You are entitled to your opinion

Yes we consolidated everything in a one-stop price because that was heavily requested

The price includes TexanLive

The only comparison is they are both football players who play safety

Schools that play varsity Thursday almost always play Freshman/JV on Wednesday

All reasons why we've been scaling back retail...its just a money pit...

It exists!!

Rising costs..distributors charge more to distribute...they also no longer buy back unsold magazines which cuts into profit margins

Retail distribution is more limited this year but they did leave from the distrubutor trucks on Monday

I mean they kind of are...nine state titles in fifteen seasons would qualify as being the Gods of 4A football IMO

Gold Cup going on...lots of good soccer on USA plays Sunday in the quarterfinals

No

Ashly is good people...tough to make a good living doing local news, tough to make a good living writing for the local newspaper, nearly impossible to make a good living covering local sports online..in the end everyone suffers because there's no one left to cover local sports properly Happy for him and the students at Hardin-Jefferson ISD will benefit greatly from him being there

They were rotating two at the State Tournament so figured at least at the time it was still an open competition...guess if one isn't eligible that makes it pretty obvious lol

This is Silsbee's year to be honest..they should be at AT&T Stadium IMO...they return maybe the best player in the state...plenty of experience at in the trenches....lots of other offensive weapons..just gotta settle on a QB
