  1. I must of missed something. Why is Mir the UFC’s interim heavyweight champion? What happened to Lesnar?
  2. we should start monday on new plan that will pass. In previous posts you have said you could support a small, less expensive bond. Why not start immediately on a new streamlined plan? Just wondering. So when you previously said "you could support a smaller bond"; was that a disingenious statement? How could a smaller bond with a minimal tax increase to meet minimal facility needs "screw the taxpayer"? This is not an original idea that I've come up with; you recommended it many post back. No reply Smitty?
  3. Has nothing to do with teachers, or portable buildings, or programs......As I have said in the past, I teach in a school district that really needs some new buildings, computers newer than 10 years old, a decent library, a new cafeteria, our teachers would kill for the salaries NISD teachers get, heck in the winter, my heater may or may not work.....Guess what, our TAKS scores are going to be very close to yours, all my kids are going to say "Yes Sir " and Yes Ma'am." My college bound kids are going to do just as well as yours, they are going to Baylor, and A&M, and Texas and Rice. And are doing well. Quit griping about you need new schools in a recession. You made an interesting recommendation to Nederland to reduce salaries to pay for facility improvements. Good Idea? Maybe you can recommend the same thing to your district to address the facility needs you listed at your school. While your at it you can get some new flags. ;D
  4. I think I can agree the Rockets are done BUT they always seem to step it up and compete when a star goes down. They may make it interesting.

  7. its easy to call a guy out when you know the fight will never happen.... silva via murder! forrest is nothing! Silva would be my pick but "Forrest nothing"? I know he may not be as skilled or talented but he is one of the toughest fighters walking.
  8. This one could go the distance but no disapoinments this time
  9. I sure don't know the facts but I feel quite certain that it was caught on tape, they will review it, and the final outcome will be based on the tape's review. Whatever comes of this will be based on the facts.
  10. Maybe he hasn't been to bed yet ;D
  11. Whether it's correct or fair, schools/education is competitive. When every bordering district has approved bond elections the result is you end up with the worst facilities in the intire area for many years to come. Not a desired label. Some call it keeping up with the Jones but reality is its keeping up with the times. The comparable condition of a district's facilities can be a determining factor in attracting quality teachers, students, business and future home development. I hope Nederland decides they can afford to pass the bond.
  12. I see a glimmer of hope. I hope the stros aren't just teasing us. Good to see them playing well against a quality team.
  13. I think Faber should be ranked much much higher on the previous P4P, close to the top. I don't know if that would stay the same if he moved up in weight class though.
  14. I can't comprehend their tax revenue because it translates to very little to no tax incerase to citizens.
  15. Yep. dawgnut is right. If someone wanted to go through it all, legal could ask SETXsports for smitty's IP address. Or any of our IP addresses for that matter if they thought we were libeling someone for instance. Just because you post anonymously, does not mean you are totally anonymous. [Hidden Content] Aw, Smitty. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Did you not read the link? Since you poted what you did, I guess you didn't even bother to skim the article. And you are the informed one? :D I was agreeing that what dawgnut said IS correct -- if someone wants to find out who you are, who I am, etc... they can. But of course you didn't read the link and just spouted off without anything to back up what you say. You never did get back to me on the rise of prices due to inflation several pages ago. I take then that you agree a bond will cost more for the taxpayers when the economy picks back up. And yet you still think they should wait... Amazing. :D
  16. He may be PFP #1
  17. The recent bond included quite a bit of money for stadium improvements
  18. Does anyone think GSP should be concidered for PFP best fighter? Just wondering
  19. Thanks for finally clearing up your status. You should have done it long ago. It seems to me your biggest opposition is the tax increase and as I and others have stated, that is a legitimate stance. JMO No one, as you claim, has ever said that life can not go on with out a bond. They only claim that it is needed.
  20. He won't answer [/q You've challenged many on this board and their motives and credability but you refuse to answer the one single question directed at you. It appears that you are just having fun with this and its sad that you continue to try to break down Nederland's educational progress when you don't even have a dog in the hunt.
  21. Might depend on the money
  22. How are they buying their way to a championship? They might have bought some players lately but it hasn't worked LOL. Even I know that. If they were buying championships they would only have a loss or two this season and not be 6-6 and just gotten beat 22-4. Can't argue with that. If they ever win another championship (lol) it won't be as impressive from a "money's no object" team. I'm not a big Marlin fan either but I am very impressed with their success so far and with a minimal payroll.
  23. He won't answer
