After 3 state championships this year, I would say us east of the trinity are no longer inferior to those west of the trinity :)

congrats to WOS, Silsbee, and PNG!!! Way to rep SETX!!

It has been quite a school year for the folks East of the Trinity.  The 3 aforementioned championships were great, and don't forget about the Legacy Christian girls basketball team who won state championship gold, the Port Arthur Memorial 4x100m and 4x200m relay teams and Silsbee's Kalon Barnes, who won two golds in the 100 and 200m runs.

Why does anyone from the Golden Triangle/SETX buy into the "east of the Trinity" and "west of the Trinity" nonsense? It's only a fantasy dividing line from a few folks in BH and Crosby. Spend any amount of time around local sports fans in the Houston area, even the east side, and NO ONE will mention the magical Trinity marker. They will mostly refer to "the Beaumont area". The Trinity doesn't even come to mind.

Those west of the Trinity, especially those in red, love to rejoice in second round appearances and sightings of the hype train. No doubt that train will be rolling into the station soon. Lots of D1 recruits, speed for days, high flying offenses, intro videos in their stadium talking about being "a dog", but no real measureable results.

Good morning, sunshine.

Just may be some head shakers this year, that's all. Definitely gonna be some good football. We need to stay healthy but if that happens, the Broncos will be tough. I've always liked a sea of purple bi-district game.

I agree. Will be a very competitive year.

According to you, what would a "real measurable result" be?

I have to assume you mean a State Championship. If so, then you are correct. Crosby has done nothing. 

Although I agree with you that ultimately nothing but a State Championship really matters,  I disagree that there are "no real measurable results". 

I'd count the following:

3 District Championships in a row (Yes, 2 were Co-Champs). 

Around 5 years of Bi-District Championships in a row. 

I think it's now a 4 year home winning streak.  

3 years removed from a State Semifinal appearance. 

Something like a .850 winning percentage under Riordan. 

I do agree with you that the knock on the program historically and in recent years (minus the semi final run) is the inability to get out of the 2nd round. Until the Cougars can do that consistently we can only claim to be a very good area program rather than an elite team in Texas. 

With that said, we are still going to be loud and proud and get on your nerves.

      It's a great day in SETX!

      What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      He's with it enough to do what he's told, beginning day 1 when he signed the order to revoke the Keystone Pipeline project.  But more recently, he's protecting the DOJ, as well as himself ...  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up

      Most 75-80 year Olds have some type of cognitive impairment. If you are asking if Biden has dementia then my answer is no. That is a Republican talking point. If you all think he has dementia what type do you think he has?
