    Yes we can...either get a job and don't go to college OR get a job and/or scholarship and pay for your college.
     
    Don't saddle the taxpayer with YOUR responsibility.
     
    Both ways work for me.

    John McCain is a joke..he probably sees Cruz as more of a threat than the terrorists.

    Just got an email that Jerry Jones sent the Cowboys' bus to pick up Navasota this morning.  He is also paying for their rooms and meals.  Evidently he talked to them in their locker room 2 years ago and was really impressed with their attitudes and sportsmanship.

    Deionte Thompson, safety for the West-Orange Stark football team has been named an Under Armour All-American. The rosters were released on December 4th. But I haven't seen anything on here about it! Congrats DT!

    Bet we dont see this on ESPN, but if he'd a got caught making a life mistake it'd be the lead in for sports center.

    Earl Thomas is a class act and a wonderful role model for the young men and women of Orange Texas.

    I saw last night on Channel 6 news where we have another local team that might be playing for a state championship.  LCM's Special Olympic flag football team.  Good luck to the team.  Winners in my eyes already.

    As a longtime scifi nerd, I have serious reservations about the new Star Wars. JJ Abrams is not known for paying much attention to canon (I'm still frustrated about several issues with the Star Trek reboot) and I've already spotted some inconsistencies just in the trailer.

    RETIREDFAN1 reacted to purpleeagle in Hemphill   
    The kids are not interested in football. The 7th and 8th grade only had about 14 kids on each team and the JV cancelled against Newton because if they got an injury they would not have enough players on the field. The coaches cannot do anything for a kid that does not want to play and you cannot make them play. You have to develop the kids and a coach cannot do that while the kids would rather be playing games on the computer rather than lifting weights, etc..
     The football future looks very dim for the next few years for Hemphill.
     Someone from Hemphill argued that playing a weak schedule was the way to build the confidence for the players, well, just how much confidence did it build. Hemphill could not even beat the weak teams.
     A once good program from years ago has vanished.
     Changing the coaching staff if not going to change the program at this stage(as a matter of fact they have done that the last few years and it has accomplished nothing).. You have to get the kids out for football and after a few years if the program has not changed then you can look at changing the coaching staff.

    RETIREDFAN1 reacted to TROJANSWIN in Ferguson   
    I would be willing to bet very few of the rioters are from Ferguson. It has nothing to do with the grand jury, Michael Brown, or the Ferguson police. They use it is an excuse to steal and run around destroying things.
    The worst part is that they get associated with the real protesters. I don't really agree with the protests in this case, but I don't have to. It is their right to protest. As long as they do it peacefully, so be it.
    Some of the protesters even tried to stop the looting and destruction. It makes every part of this issue worse. The police will now be more on edge, and will be more likely to react badly to the real protesters. The protesters look bad, because they get associated with this trash. The owners of the businesses and their employees, some of which are black, are out of work, or had their business destroyed. Michael Brown is still dead. Officer Wilson will have to resign and move, and then will still have to worry about retaliation in the future. The president, missourri governor, and attorney general come out looking like idiots.The only people who come out of this with a positive are Al Sharpton because he has a made up cause and the news media who have something for people to watch instead of talking about turkeys and parades.

    Great post Trojan.

    Lots of the rioters are not even from Ferguson. I bet if you were to ask any rioter at random the name of the young man who was shot, they could not answer correctly. I think the riots are not even about Brown. Just an excuse to show their true colors.

    What an embarrassment to all Americans! It is like watching Somalia or Iraq civil war only it is happening in our own country. And why are we in the street stealing bottles of liquor and candy bars? Because 1 person was shot while attacking another person. Not because the government rolled over 50 college students with tanks, or rounded up people on the middle of the night and then mass executed them and dumped them in a pit. Nope a thug was shot by a police officer, after robbing a store and pushing down the little clerk who tried to stop him, then charging and attacking the police officer when he confronted him for jay walking, robbery, or something else. So for this we burn down businesses, destroy people's lives, and look like complete fools to the entire world. Then we try to tell other countries don't kill and eat a whale, because you should be civilized like us! The leaders of the black community that have stirred this up or even didn't try to stop it should be embarrased. Everyone wants to be equal and have equal rights, then starting acting like you are not from a third world country and are part of a civilized society and maybe people will see you as equal.
