RETIREDFAN1 reacted to RaiderRed30 in *BI-DISTRICT PLAYOFF INFO/POST HERE*
Have an idea since they are from the Gilmer area:
Convince them to come to Chester this year and agree to go to Union Hill next year if y'all are put in the same district. This way they will have to come to Chester 2 out of 3 times giving y'all two home games.

They were given scholarships to play football. The university is living up to their end of the deal. Players can protest on their own time.

Actually, the university should revoke their scholarships and send them packing. Blackmailers should never win.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to Hagar in Should a journalism professor be fired for lying about being racially profiled in a journalism piece?
IMO in her profession of teaching folks Journalism, this incident should call for termination.
We have way to many already that appear to have learned journalism from someone like her.

A part of this bill would have allowed male in female restrooms and vice versa. And guess who supported this ordinance?? You guessed it -- obama and hillary. Again -- if it's good for America and families -- obama is against it!!

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to tvc184 in Legendary HC in hot water
When I played, if a coach said that he was going to put his foot in your butt, he meant it. I am not sure how many times I have had my helmet slapped.
Today we have come to a time that we are playing a sport where kids can slam into each other going full speed in opposite directions that sometimes causes broken bones, torn ligaments and concussions and complain that a coach touched someone.
More pansification of America.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to AggiesAreWe in THANK YOU!!!!
I want to thank everyone who has posted their thoughts and prayers for my family the last few days. It is greatly appreciated. I am very blessed to have such loving and thoughtful friends here at SETXsports. Thank you all.
I want to particularly thank Todd Broussard (WOSgrad) for all he has done for me and the site while I was away for awhile. Mucho gracias my good friend.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to WOSgrad in A disturbing trend on the board that I hope doesn't continue this weekend
Usually as the lone utility of a game update thread for me is to update our scoreboard, I generally will not read a thread once I have gotten a final score in that game. The only time I may look in a game thread after game day once is when the game thread continues to have life almost a week after the final gun has been fired as it indicates that something is amiss. I had the opportunity to do that in about 4 different cases and there was certainly something amiss and all for the same reason.
It seems that in all 4 of these cases (I won't mention the specific schools, but after I reveal the problem, I think it will be pretty obvious of which ones I am talking about) supporters of the teams want to lay all of the problems of a team at the feet of the coaching staff, or more particularly, the head coaches at these schools. I understand frustration at losing to a rival, losing a game that you thought your school should win or by more than you though they should lose by. But some of the statements in the 4 cases have gone way far beyond that. They openly question the ability, and in some cases the desire, of these coaches to put a good team on the field.
Folks, we simply have to stop that. Jordan Wilson has prided himself on this site being a place where all members of our local community, including coaches, could come to talk about what we all love to talk about, high school sports. And make no mistake, coaches DO read this site. However, who would want to come to a site where they are not only told they lack the ability to place the squad of your dreams on the field, but that they really don't care if they do or not. If you truly feel that way, there are places to have your grievances aired and possibly addressed. However, this is not one of those places.
Simply airing your problem with a coach here simply accomplishes no end. It only serves to divide teams and distance coaches from the communities whose support, not scorn, is what they need to maintain the respect amongst their ranks and progress their teams to the point that the fans believe they should be.
Not to mention that such conduct is against the rules of this board. But I would rather put it in terms of a request that you folks, who I know are capable of restraint even in the extreme moments of frustration, exercise that restraint so that more rigid enforcement of the rules is not necessary. I do so with this warning, should my request not be heeded, that more rigid enforcement will become necessary.
Thanks for indulging me.folks.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to 5GallonBucket in Augustus or Christ? Rome to U.S.A.
August, our 8th month, is named after Augustus Caesar, nephew of Julius. In fact, every month of our year is based on the Roman calendar. Likewise, Roman law had a big influence on our law system, but what about Rome in the BIBLE? How Rome fit into God’s Plan
Romans 5:1 - ‘in due time Christ died for the ungodly’. The exact time was the time of the Roman Empire
Daniel 2:40,44 - the 4th Kingdom of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream is made of iron and clay and represents Rome. The 5th kingdom is a ‘stone not cut by human hands’ which destroys Rome and stands forever. This is the Lord’s Church.
Luke 2:1 - Augustus Caesar decrees the entire world be counted and taxed, including Joseph and Mary
Colossians 1:23 - Roman peace and Roman roads help make possible the evangelizing of the world in 30 years
Romans 1:18-32 - Rome, like all heathen nations, forgot God, were not thankful and descended into the 2 dozen or so listed sins which sound like our modern society.
Matthew 24:1-35 - Christ describes not the ‘7 year tribulation after the rapture’ as our premillennial friends teach, but the surrounding and starving of Jerusalem by Roman General Titus in A.D. 70.
Philemon - Runaway slave Onesimus finds Paul in prison in Rome and is converted and sent back to his master
Revelation 1:1 - this great book is not a detailed version of the 21st century as many teach, but ‘things which must shortly come to pass’; the war between Rome and the church. Rome fell but the church lives today.
After 1000 years, Rome fell. Why? Do these sound familiar?
Spreading military too thin
Economic instability
Big government (free bread and circuses)
Moral Decay (divorce, homosexuality, abortion, transgender, etc)
Think about it….the United States of America is only in its 250th year.

Do you know of any Israeli organizations who are trying to kill every American that they can? I thought this might help us in our efforts to differentiate between what we perceive as good guys/bad guys

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to Chester86 in Chester @ Orange CC
Evadale is on a bye week, and I am really looking forward to getting to watch this game. Chester has had a lot of rough years, but is really having a solid season. This will be my first game this year, and possibly the only one I will get to see. Let's go Yellowjackets!

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to Hagar in 14 yr old Muslim Clockmaker
The bottom line on the topic, if my children were in that school, I'd be congratulating that teacher. And IMO it doesn't matter what color he, or she is, what religion, what sexual preference, or any of the other bs absurdity someone might want to throw at me. Better safe than sorry.

RETIREDFAN1 got a reaction from Hagar in 14 yr old Muslim Clockmaker
Wrong again.....Judaism was given by God to the Jews.......Christianity replaced it when the perfect Sacrifice was made for our sins after having been under the schoolmaster of Judaism.......islam came from the mind of a murdering pedophile out in the desert......the only thing that split from Abraham was the ethnicities, not the religions.....The God who created the universe is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.....the koran clearly teaches against the Trinity......the false god that the muslims worship is allah, or baal....there is no similarity at all.......the only ones committing blasphemy are those who try to say that YHWH and allah are one and the same.......
