Help rename BC baseball field after Coach Young


Recommended Posts

Guest Orangeboy

That is a great pic of those two great men together.  Alot of fond memories came to mind seeing them on Saturday.  Still love just talking baseball with them.  Good luck to Coach Young in this years season,  would love to see him get to Austin another time.

Just goes to show you how difficult it is to get there. One of the greatest coaches ever, coaches over 40 years and has only gotten there once. I'm always rooting for Coach though.

Coach Young is one of those guys who doesn't need a list of state appearances to prove his worth in the coaching community.  As great a coach as he still is, his contributions are felt more off the field.

But your point is well taken.  There are a lot of great coaches out there who never get their shot at state.

If you get the time or chance go to the petition and read some of the signatures and comments, for me it brings back some great memories.

And For Coach Young ever kind word is well deserved.

How would you like to be on the school board that might not let this happen........might not be a fun place.

With BCISD in transition mode after losing its current superintendent, this petition is aimed at getting this done during the 2008 spring baseball season. 

Thank you to all who have signed the petition thus far, and we ask that you continue to help us spread the word.

Thought I would get this some more support since he is headed to the state tourney. Kind of a neat deal that Coach Bryant and BC honored his first state team earlier this year.

After a valiant run to the state playoffs, Texas City ran out of steam in the semifinals.  What an amazing run by the Stings.  Let this be a reminder of Coach Young's endless string of accomplishments, and for anyone who has yet to sign our petition, please do so:

According to my family back in the Golden Triangle, the Penny Record published an article about our cause.  If anyone has online access to this article, please pass it along as I am unable to get my hands on the paper itself.

A big thanks goes out to the Penny Record for helping to keep the awareness up; we've seen a good spike in signatures since last night.

Thanks,

FG

Maybe they should name it after Billy Bryant (LOL).  He must be a better coach since "HE" has already been to Austin more times than Coach Young

Let's name it......"Field of Weeds" ...... So everybody can be happy.......

    • He's steadily improving rapidly. Not that your opinion matters much based on some of the wild projections you've made on this site 
    • Cohen……a lying, backstabbing pos who does nothing but lie every time he opens his mouth. Let him utter words the prosecution wants to hear, and we can convict. Cohen told his ex advisor that he wanted to kill himself. What a worldly loss that would be. Let anyone on this board be put through the wringer with false charges and lies like Trump has had to endure, and you would be screaming at the top of your lungs how illegal all of this is.
    • It was and remains perfectly timed and choregraphed Kangaroo Court, whatever Cohen just said or lied about.  Face it, under Soros installed Biden and Merrick Garland, the USA is now officially a Bananna Republic with a Goverment that weaponizes itself against and destroys its political rivals. Putin and Xi are SO proud!  Dang I miss Democracy.       
    • I haven’t been watching closely, but even the liberal sources even tell the story as “the defense really took apart Cohen’s testimony on Thursday.” It sounds like sloppy work from the prosecution to point out a specific call as being “the one,” when it was easily concluded that this particular call could not have occurred the way that Cohen (and the prosecution) claim it to have happened.    The bad news is that I doubt that it matters much-I suspect that most jurors minds were closed before testimony started.   I don’t see Trump leaving with anything less than a conviction based on the venue (NYC).
    • Tough case all the way around.  The guy had a lot of online activity come out where he made racist statements and statements about killing BLM protesters and looters.  So when he then goes out and does it, it looks really bad.  I've seen a lot of videos where people have driven through protestors, defended themselves against them, etc., and didn't bat an eye.  This feels different, but that doesn't necessarily make it murder, either.  His account of the events that happened vs. the witness accounts were both very different, but I'd also expect both sides' accounts to be self-serving and inaccurate to fit their narrative.  Not really sure what to think on this one.
