    1989NDN got a reaction from Hagar in "Affordable Housing"   
    The news story reported by KFDM (Channel 6) said nothing about free housing.  It is a news story about affordable housing for senior citizens in a part of Beaumont where they can walk to and from stores that offer goods and services.  Most senior citizens are on fixed incomes, be it from Social Security, or retirement investments, or both, and they need housing at a price point that fits within their budget.  Many of those seniors likely paid into Social Security and Medicare in the form of payroll deductions.  Are they not entitled to the Social Security benefits they are receiving?  Where is the "Do Less, Get More" mentality?  Why not use public funds to assist senior citizens?  The story reported by Channel 6 was not about Section 8 subsidized housing for welfare queens and kings.  Why bash Beaumont for being dumb?  What is dumb about using public funds to assist local senior citizens in your community?
    Find common ground and work together to make American great again.  Isn't that what President Trump wants?  Conservatives push a Bible-based agenda, but they overlook the scriptures where the Lord said to care for the poor, widows, orphans, and society in general. See Deuteronomy 15:7-11, Proverbs 14:31, Jeremiah 22:16, Matthew 19:21, 25:35, and 1 John 3:17-18.
    3...2...1...those in the center, or on the left are dumb, radical, too eclectic, too liberal, stealing from the rich to give to the poor, taking from the workers to give to the lazy, taking from the haves to care for the have-nots so they can push a gay agenda, etc.  Response:  No, not at all.  Let's spend tax funds wisely to take care of our armed services, seniors, vets, and rebuild infrastructure.  No one is advocating giving free money or free housing to the Jerry Springer crowd.  That was not the story reported by KFDM.
    Peace.

    1989NDN got a reaction from Tigers2010 in Obama's farewell speech   
    Trump won because he found an audience that Hillary Clinton took for granted, i.e., working class Americans.  Trump vowed (and to his credit, thus far, he has kept his vow) to get Americans back to work.  People of all color, ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, etc. want an opportunity to work and provide for his/her family.  People in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia, Florida, Texas and all across this great nation want Americans back to work.  That is exactly why Trump is pushing his agenda with Carrier, Ford, General Motors, Boeing, the steel industry, the coal industry, etc.  It's time we stop sending jobs elsewhere, be it to Mexico, Taiwan, China, or India.  Let's put the great people of the USA back to work making the goods and services we need.  We can make refrigerators, toasters, steel bridges, cars, trucks, etc. right here in the USA.  Let's give lower and middle class Americans an opportunity to earn decent wages and provide good products and services.  Yes, business owners/shareholders should make a profit.  No one denies that premise.  But, CEOs and other executives making tens of millions while the common man and woman risks losing his/her job to an overseas job market is not what made the USA the land of opportunity.  Trump figured out the frustration of John Q. and Sally Q. Public, and he made that his platform.  Whereas, Hillary Clinton took that vote for granted and stayed focus on buzzword politics, i.e., Dem v. Rep, corporations v. unions, tax increases v. tax cuts, spending for social services v. spending on the military, a woman's right to choose v. pro-life, etc.  It's like Bill Clinton used to say:  It's not about who sleeps with who or any other social issue...it's all about the economy.  Here's to the President (be it President Obama or President-elect Trump) being a good leader for all Americans.

    1989NDN got a reaction from ManiacAlum2000 in West Orange-Stark 24 Sweetwater 6/FINAL/WO-S BACK TO BACK CLASS 4A, DIVISION II STATE CHAMPIONS!   
    Now that the hardware is in the trophy case, and the mission in 2016 is completed, let the debate begin.  Is this the best team WO-S has ever put on the field?  1986, 1987, 1988, 2000, 2016?  Perhaps I am forgetting a team worthy of consideration?  I love me some 1980s football with Kevin Smith and his teammates, but it is difficult, very difficult, to look past the 2016 WO-S Mustangs.  I have a slight lean towards the 2016 team.  Others?  Thoughts?  Let's discuss.
    Congratulations to WO-S.

    1989NDN got a reaction from Tigers2010 in Briles to Houston?   
    Art Briles will not return to the University of Houston.  Chancellor and President, Dr. Renu Khator will not allow that to happen.  She has worked too hard to improve the academic and athletic standards, and to improve the culture and national perception of UH to allow such a move.  If it did happen, UH would be looking for a new Chancellor and President as well as several new regents, professors, boosters, and fans.
    We need to give Todd Orlando a shot to lead the football program.  He is an excellent defensive coach, recruiter, and leader.  He has a plan in place for our program.  If Major Applewhite would stay as OC, great.  If not, then Todd Orlando will find someone to keep the HTown Takeover moving forward.  Now should be the time for Todd Orlando to prove he can be a good HC.  UH did well to find Art Briles (version 1.0; not version 2.0 at Baylor), Kevin Sumlin, and Tom Herman.  Heck, even Tony Levine went 7-5, so he was not too bad of a hire.  Going forward, we can find another up and coming HC in Todd Orlando.  If he, too, leaves in 3, 4 or 5 years, so be it.  Having other programs want your HC is a lot better than no one wanting him.  At UH, we just need to keep improving our programs, facilities, and overall standards.  Move the university forward one step at a time.  Hiring Art Briles, version 2.0, is not moving forward.  I say give Todd Orlando a shot.  Just my 0.02 cents.

    Proud of the Indians in Round 2.  Despite some iffy snaps and penalties, the Indians got a good win.  Willowridge had size...more so than PAM...I'm talking about kids that looked like grown men.  Can't say enough about the leadership from PN-G's QB.  He had to grind tonight and still found a way to make big runs and throws.
    To the fans complaining about the DBs - I understand what you are saying, but the Indians are not blessed with shutdown DBs like PAM.  We do not have 6'2" and 6'3" kids, with 4.5 speed, and ball hawking skills walking the hallways at PN-G High School.  The Indians have to roll with what they have on the roster.  And, the kids playing DB are doing some good things.  Are they perfect?  No.  But, they don't quit after a bad play. The same DB that gets heat from fans for playing too soft, or from those fans that like to gripe that he is too small, well, that same DB made another big play tonight in the 4Q when Willowridge had a throw down the field toward the end zone.  He was in position and he made the play.  All 5'6" or 5'7" and 125 lbs. of him made the play.  Those teams on the other sideline (Barbers Hill and Willowridge) will make some plays.  They are good teams.  Give them some credit, too.  Nonetheless, our kids fight, scrap, and they don't quit.  We had another great effort on defense...11 kids getting to the football.  The big guy at NG, #68, had a solid game.  Not tall, but he is wide.  When he gets going up the field, he ties up the OL and then the Indians LBs can make some plays.
    On to round 3...and how about the new RB? Not the biggest guy, but he hits the hole fast and will lower his pads for a few extra yards.  I'm not an official stats guy, but I would not be surprised if the QB and RB each had 100 - 125 yards.  QB made some big throws...I'm guessing 200+ yards through the air.  Need to clean up the snaps and penalties.  Glad the PAT kicking game was back.  Much better this week.  Better blocking, timing, and good kicks.  Nice job special teams coaches and players.  I'm still not a fan of the pooch kick.  I understand the reasoning behind it, but it is a head scratcher to give the other team the ball at the 40 yard line.  That is the end of my small complaint.  Happy to roll into the 3rd round.

    1989NDN got a reaction from Cheermom4 in PNG vs FB Willowridge   
    FBW is not a bad team...they have more size than PAM and they brought the heat last night just like the Titans did to the Indians in week 6 or 7 or whatever week it was when they played.  FBW had some tall lean kids on defense that could run...they were grown men and when they hit you, they were in a foul mood.  At times last night, FBW shut down PN-G just like PAM did...but, PN-G did not get rattled or curl up and stop playing...to me, it felt like RJ made some big throws in the second half, I would have guessed he passed for more than 130/140 total yards.  The QB and RB run game found its groove...the new RB hit the hole fast and on that last run to close out the game in the 4Q, he showed some wheels.  FBW came after him, but he ran 30 or 40 yards to the endzone.  He was fast enough.  Playing PAM, Nederland, Vidor, Central, and 22-5A helped PN-G...the size and speed of FBW did not rattle the Indians...it just took some time and adjustments to get 28 points.  The PN-G defense gets overlooked...those 11 kids might give up some yards, but they kept FBW from big play scores.  PN-G will not see a better RB than PA's #25.  The PN-G defense knew what the challenge would be last night and they did what they had to do to get a W.

    His older brother, Marcus Oliver, plays OT for the Cougars.  Marcus and Ed Oliver have a rock solid brotherly relationship.  That played the biggest part in his recruiting.  Also, Ed Oliver's high school coach joined the Cougars' coaching staff during Ed's junior year of high school.  Finally, the UH DL coach, former Texas Longhorn Oscar Giles, has a bond with Ed that sealed the deal and got Ed Oliver to UH.  Oscar Giles is an underrated coach and recruiter.  He's helped Todd Orlando create a pretty salty UH front seven on defense.
    If Coach Herman leaves UH, I hope Major Applewhite or Todd Orlando get promoted to HC...and I hope they keep Oscar Giles, too.  UH has a good coaching staff and they get the most out of the talent we have on the roster.  No secret...a lot of it has to do with good players, e.g., Greg Ward, Jr., Chance Allen, Linnell Bonner, D'Eric King, Ed Oliver, Stephen Taylor, Cameron Malveaux, etc.  I know we are not a P5 team, but we have some P5 coaches, P5 talent in key areas, and success breeds more success.  We just don't have a lot of depth.
    If Coach Herman stays with Orlando, Applewhite, et al., the sky is the limit...the recruiting class should be one of the overall best we've had in a long, long time.

    One more thing...if you are a player wanting more playing time, then volunteer to block on PAT/FG attempts...we need the help there!  Special teams players are STARTERS for their designated special team.  Commit to do your job on special teams - PAT/FG, kickoff, kick return, punt, punt return...these are important jobs.  Let's clean these up and not leave points on the field.  Even in practice, bust it and make those special teams players get better.  Much love for all of the 2016 Indians.

    One more thing...if you are a player wanting more playing time, then volunteer to block on PAT/FG attempts...we need the help there!  Special teams players are STARTERS for their designated special team.  Commit to do your job on special teams - PAT/FG, kickoff, kick return, punt, punt return...these are important jobs.  Let's clean these up and not leave points on the field.  Even in practice, bust it and make those special teams players get better.  Much love for all of the 2016 Indians.
    Go Indians.  Peace.

    I encourage all PN-G fans to attend a  booster club meeting.  You will learn about run/pass options, the progressions the QB reads, the combination routes the WRs run, the protections called for the OL, and other things about the program, i.e., defensive alignments/calls.  I live out of town, but I have been to approx. 5 to 7 meetings in the past nine years.  It is worth your time to attend.  As for who plays and who doesn't, that is not for me to comment upon.  If we have a young man that can contribute, then "Next Man Up."  Given the injuries we have, we need some help with depth.  If there is a young man that can help, and he has the ability and attitude to help, then I say give him a shot.  Help in practice, help your teammates get better, and when your number is called for a game, give it all you got...do what you have been coached to do.  Whoever contributes, be it at practice or in a game, you are an Indian and you have my support.  Once an Indian, Always an Indian.  Rally behind the coaches and players.  Let's get another playoff win.
    Go Indians.  Peace.

    It appears the teams from each district were evenly matched.  Lots of good football played by the teams involved.  I can only speak to one game: PN-G v. BH.  After watching BH, they will be a tough out next year.  They played several JRs and SOPHs.  They are building a solid program.  QB, RB, the slot WR, and several kids on defense have some talent.
    PN-G...just keep battling...fight to win each play...I love this team's will to win.  And, we should be pretty good next year, too.  Plenty of JRs and SOPHs making plays for the Indians.
    Good luck to all of the teams surviving this week.
    Go Indians.  Peace.

    Central fans...give your coaches and team some love...they battled and left it all on the field.  What more can you ask for?  Good job Central Jaguars...you exemplified what HS football is about...play hard, play with passion, fight for what you get, and add up the score at the end.  Tip of the cap to NC.
    Go Indians.  Peace.
