Just heard Bobby has passed away.  Prayers for the family!

I have just heard the same. 

I hope that I am posting this and I will hear a "just kidding" but I fear I won't. 

There was no truer high school football fan than Mr. Bobby Griffin.  He certainly loved his Dayton Broncos but you'd see him in Crosby, in Beaumont and ALL over Southeast Texas as there was no team in this area that he didn't support.  This was despite having a number of war related injuries and a number of health problems.

Prayers to his wife and family.   As soon as I find funeral and visitation information, I will post it here.

Man look, I really don't know what to say.  I'm at a loss of words, really...  over the years, I've built a really good relationship with him...  sports talks, the post game show...  just last year, the man came and gave me a jump when I was stranded on the highway in his neck of the woods in the moss hill area.  

Many prayers sent to his wife and family..

High School football lost a true fan and a lot of history.  Very few if any knew more about the local football scene than Bobby.  He was my fathers 1st cousin.  I would always get in trouble with my side of the family because when they found out I saw him or was going somewhere he was at they would always ask about him and family.  They would always ask about him or certain family members on that side and my response was always the same.....I don't know, but I can tell you why Dayton lost or won last night. RIP my friend,  enjoy from the good seats now my friend!

    • What were the issues at Rusk?  SB, Admin, Culture, Pay?  Inquiring minds would like to know.
    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up From the article: “As a parent, then as a homeowner, if you have some equity in your home, then you can say to your child, you know, ‘don’t take out the loan,’” she said. “‘I’ll take out some of the equity to help you pay for tuition so that you don’t graduate with extraordinary student loan debt, and so that when you graduate, you can do your dream job.’” Essentially, Harris suggested that parents give their kids a leg up in the world by being the ones to take out a loan instead. Except theirs would have much higher stakes than just needing to be paid back — it could mean losing their home. 🤦‍♂️
    • Good luck and safe travels. Bring it home.
    • It has been frustrating seeing the lack of coverage from virtually EVERY media outlet.  We (Chester) are in the SE Texas coverage area.  There are no radio broadcast from our area, and Ch 12 is the only one that has even mentioned it.   I know I could have gotten donations to cover a SETX Sports broadcast.  Oh well, water under the bridge - we aren’t as big as Silsbee, WO-S or PN-G.
