  1. Check out [Hidden Content] at the bottom of the sports page.
  2. He is the best fisherman on the planet. JMHO
  3. If history repeats its self, the Astros have never done well with big name pitcher trades and pitching seams to be their weekest area. As a matter of fact, I can't recall them coming out on top of any trade, could be mistaken. I think Tejada is playing great in the field and at the plate, better than he has in a long time. JMO Carlos may be good trade.
  4. I can understand him being upset and not wanting to talk to the press but every game/series someone looses. It goes with the game and we'll see if the league agrees or not with a fine or not.
  5. I don't know how they can work that to their advantage. Pitching is where they're hurting, and then loose Roy?
  6. I must of missed something. Why is Mir the UFC’s interim heavyweight champion? What happened to Lesnar?
  7. 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?
  8. 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
  9. 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.

  12. 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.
  13. This one could go the distance but no disapoinments this time
  14. 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.
  15. Maybe he hasn't been to bed yet ;D
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. I can't comprehend their tax revenue because it translates to very little to no tax incerase to citizens.
  20. 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
