LC-M Results From Coaching Survey
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Yep.... the survey is purely political as was the attempt to answer the reason for it. Why not just have the admin do its job and get to hiring whoever they think is their guy? No need to try and justify it by posting questions and percentages that everyone knows the answers to before the results are in. -
****Coach Stowers resigns today****
tvc184 replied to BearWolf's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Yes, kids need their parent's support. No, it is not fair that a coach needs to step up in place of the parent. But the fact is that some coaches do take the place of parents. Many people have grown up successful in life due to a teacher or coach or mentor stepping up in place of a parent. It has always been that way and it will always be that way. No matter how much anyone talks about it should start at home (and they are correct, it SHOULD) the simple fact is that there will always be kids left behind by parents that are not doing their job. What do you do with these children? Do you let them go because their parents are a failure or does someone else try to take the place of the parents? When someone figures out the way to make parents responsible, please let the rest of us in on the secret. Until then, let's hope that there are mentors that will at least try to step in and give some guidance in the lives of children that have no where else to turn. -
LC-M Results From Coaching Survey
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Having absolutely no ties to LCM or care what they do, I can honestly say that it may be the most stupid survey ever devised by a school district. What is the intent? No matter what the results were, how is that going to find what the LCM community wants and that is a winning program. If all this survey cost was 15 seconds of a school district employees time, then the district needs to find a way to refund 15 seconds to the LCM taxpayers. -
Bowhunters concerned about possible regulation change
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
The TPWD Commission met in committee today to consider the proposals put forth at the November meeting. These included the expansion of youth rifle season for the entire month of October, opening a rifle season in Grayson County, and limiting the number of Alligator Gar to 1 per day. The LSBA with support from TBoT and bowhunters/bowfishers across the state rallied in opposition to these proposals. We were heard!! Today the commission recommended the following proposals: 1. Youth Season will be extended into January with no intrusion into the Archery Season at all. 2. Grayson County will stay Archery Only with an increased bag limit to 2 bucks but with antler restrictions. 3. No limits or restrictions on taking Alligator Gar except on Lake Texoma where it will be limited to 1 fish per day. These proposals will be published in the Texas Register for consideration to be made law at the Commissioner's meeting in March. There will be several public hearings before then to gather data regarding these and several other proposals. It was obvious from listening to commissioner's comments that bowhunters had made their feelings known. The leadership of the LSBA has agreed to work with TPWD to explore new opportunities to get the youth in the field and I believe we will be able to make positive contributions to that effort. The next time you talk to one of the folks from TPW or one of the commissioners please take the time to thank him/her for supporting bowhunting. I want to thank each of you for your hard work in supporting the LSBA and bowhunters of Texas. -
If there was prizes or money involved, it would be fairly easy to be a big event. Not so much to start but if you start getting enough entries, sponsers start coming in.

How's Everyone's Deer Hunting Going?
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
It takes a blind man to see that the antler restrictions work but the "kill it if it moves" is deeply ingrained in east Texas and will be very hard to overcome. On a similar note, a joint resolution was introduced in the current Texas legislature for a constitutional amendment to be voted on by the citizens of the state in the next general election. This resolution would make it a Texas Constitution guarantee for the right to hunt and fish. I am guessing that this bill is a direct response to the recent moves by the PETA crowd and other liberal moves in the country to try and ban such activities. I hope that the resolution passes and we can get it into the Texas Constitution. -

Not me. I was hoping to go hunting this weekend one more time and get another doe for the freezer but I don't think I will have time. -

PAISD’s football job won’t require master’s degree
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
The article wasn't about anything in particular and is one paragraph from West's weekly Sunday diatribe. It is obvious that he was slamming the degree requirement but he wasn't writing an article about Memorial. It was just a musing at PNG's expense. I thought it was a good point..... as probably do a majority of the people in and outside of PNG. -
Land's Custom Taxidermy in Bridge City used to do a great job but I haven't been to his shop in the last few years. It was great stuff the last time I was there.

What coaches are applying where.
tvc184 replied to steele curtain's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I'd watch out for the nimwit talk. All information is not public contrary to your "EVERYTHING" comment. You then posted an article...... that says the "finalists" must be released according to the courts. So much for "everything". Then, how much of the application is to be released? The entire application including credit ratings or just names and schools? Better go back and rethink your post nimw... uh... The Young Coach. -

tvc184 replied to steele curtain's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Public funds does not make everything open to public view. There are plenty of things that are protected information internally. I have no clue if they have to release applicant names but to think that a public institution must disclose everything is incorrect. -
PNG will not hire this coach... not qualified
tvc184 replied to SuperflySnuka's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Then why post them as "requirements"? I can see that all applicants will be considered but they would "prefer" a master degree. Something in this process seems like they are trying to keep some or certain people from applying. I could care less what PNG does but this doesn't seem to pass the sniff test. -
Bowhunters concerned about possible regulation change
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
You are ethical. I believe that many are not. Yes, criminals will be criminals. I think that this move would allow a criminal the "right" to be in the woods with a rifle without having to sneak around. The only way to catch a poacher in these kinds of situations is to almost be in the deer stand with the hunter to know which person pulled the trigger. I believe that it will be a way to almost legitimize poaching and make it much easier to break the law. Not for the ethical hunters but for the large number (maybe not a majority but it is substantial) of ones that are not. -

Yeah, I am sure that Sulpher Springs players feel tarnished right now. Heck, next week they may even return their trophy to the UIL. -
We need to have a "Meet the Poster" dinner!
tvc184 replied to a topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
The whole point of forums is not to remain anonymous although that is a benefit to some. If a member doesn't want to meet other members then great. There are others out there that would like to meet their nemesis or maybe a like minded poster. For them, that is great also. People aren't stupid for falling in either category. Different strokes for different folks. -

Bowhunters concerned about possible regulation change
tvc184 replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
"BUT IT"S FOR THE KIDS" I agree Lefty. I have been deer hunting for about 35 years and the October archery season was an add-on. Guns were not allowed to hunt back then and that put that extra season for bow hunters the extra time without all the extra pressure in the woods. You have to remember that bow hunters usually need to get within 20 yards of their game and normally shots are taken about about 12-18 yards. It is not like when the gun hunters are taking from 75-150 yard shots and have large shooting lanes. I hunt both gun and bow so I am not dogging out gun hunters. I just think they are trying to move in on a time that they have never been able to use for gun hunting. It is not like they took that time away from gun hunters to make room for archery. I think a lot of people that claim to be doing it "for the kids" are really doing it to get the kids out of their hair for the "real" season. Heck, the kids can hunt with the parent right now for 9 weeks of the regular season and additional time (part of it in archery season) when adults can't hunt with guns. That apparently isn't enough. That is why I have the suspicion that it is so the kid can kill a spike or a doe and get that out of the way so dad (and/or mom) can do the serious hunting or dad wants that extra chance at the monster buck before the other hunters get in there and uses the kid as the justification to be in the woods. Sorry but there it is. Also, anyone that wants to gun hunt for deer during October (or even September) can do so by starting with the MLD program. Of course, to do that they need to manage their lease and not just kill everything that moves. An MLD program lease will allow gun hunters to hunt the entire deer season (including archery) and even into February, way after everyone else has had their season end.
