Silsbee has had the label best stadium in SETX for the better part of 10 years.  Even with grass and not a video board, i think they're up there.  Turf will really be a huge upgrade for them.

Is this a joke?

The only label Silsbee’s stadium has is for having the most jacked-up playing surface in SETX. That’s the reason why (feel free to correct me if  I’m wrong) Silsbee has never hosted a playoff game. 

Jasper, PNG, The Butch, Huffman, and probably even Lumberton, are all nicer football facilities than Silsbee’s. Livingston is the only local school that I can think of with worse parking. Plus Silsbee’s lighting is bad. I like the dirt pile, though. Except that’s not dirt, it’s a big pile of dashed hopes, unfulfilled dreams, and excuses. 
 

Even Bridge City gets a flyover by the Mosquito Control plane. Silsbee is downwind of Evadale on a bad night.

The resident Silsbee hater has spoken.

Wouldn't have expected anything less.

I thought Silsbee couldn't get turf because of the field being right at the water table or something?

Silsbee can claim that title from 2000 till about 2008 when PNG got their stadium upgrade... Silsbee doesn’t even have the best stadium in their district (that title goes to WOS) let alone setx...

Okay, Silsbee May not be the greatest, but it looks good from 96.  

So who’s the worst?   Based on what I’ve read on here, Livingston, based on them being in a higher classification.   I know some smaller schools are bad, but hey, they’re small.

Well, is Livingston considered SETX?  If so, I'd say it was a toss up between them and Cleveland  (before their upgrades).

I hope so, that would be awesome! I had heard from some former coaches that it couldn't be done, but that was like 10 years ago...

It couldn’t be done because Mrs. Dauphin exchanged her earthly troubles for a crown and the guy handling her money isn’t a football fan. 
 

You’re talking about a community that can’t get together and get a sign to recognize their back-to-back basketball state championships.

I’m curious as to why BC turf softball and baseball but not the football field as well...

Baseball is KING in BC. The Coronavirus and that crybaby coach from LiCk’eM are the only reasons we haven’t picked up our 27th and 28th District Championships. 
 

Anybody that gets in the way of Baseball’s dominance will get run out of town by “the powers that be.”

Interesting if that's true.  Can anyone confirm  this?

give me your list of top 10 stadiums in SETX.

I’m too lazy to list out ten. I gave five or so... I’d have Silsbee around six or so, with WOS in the same class. I’ve always liked the concrete stands at WOS... the seating is roomy. It’ll be neat to see how Ned s shapes up after the upgrades. I’ve always liked Newton’s tiny field and I miss the Alamo in Jasper. Favorite non-SETX stadium would be Lobo in Longview. 
 

Buna is bad. Orangefield sucks (and so does their stadium).  There are a bunch of schools in the middle. LCM isn’t top ten, but there isn’t a bad seat in the house. 
 

My problem was with the statement that Silsbee had the best stadium in SETX when they don’t have turf or a video scoreboard, the actual playing surface is widely recognized as the worst, and parking stinks. Nice, but not the best in my opinion.

i agree about silsbee.

silsbee is not a bad stadium but far from the best. 

woodville has the best turf in the area by far.

    • I’ve stated over and over that I don’t think that the hush money trial has merit. I also don’t think that the fraud/appraisals case in NYC had merit, either. I think that the evidence in the Election Tampering case down in Georgia is pretty damning, and the case about mishandling documents down in Florida is a real problem for Trump… because that’s what intelligent people do-look at the facts make sound decisions not based on their pwecious feewings.  You know, just saying “Bah! It’s all a bunch of lies because I love him!” Or “of course he did it! I hate him.” But thought processes are something most people are incapable of. They only manage to scroll social media for posts that validate their own opinions and them off as truth or fact when they are just outright lies… but they make the re-poster feel good inside so he believes them without question.    Every time I soundly refute the  idea that trump was good for the economy, y’all yell “but COVID!” His tax cuts provided a short term bubble in the economy by way of an exploding deficit and debt that our grandkids will still be paying interest upon 50 years from now even prior to COVID.  It’s like when Mama takes over the family finances, maxes out all of the credit cards and drives the family into bankruptcy.  Y’all would be the spoiled brat, immature and stupid children that spout off “things were so much better when Mom was handling the finances! We had everything we wanted! Put her back in charge!” Anybody that says “Trump was good for the economy” is just letting they world known that they don’t understand micro/macro economics or the effects of rising interest rates have on a debt the size of ours.    What none of you seem to realize is that the problems were facing today (interest rates and inflation) would be occurring even if Trump were in office because his fiscal policies are more flawed than either conservatives or liberals.    Libs: we should raise taxes on the rich and spend more! Conservatives: We should cut taxes on everybody but cut spending!   Trump: We’re gonna cut taxes and spend more!    It’s a recipe for pure disaster. He’s literally the guy who says “we’re gonna buy high, sell low, and make it up in volume!”    
    • The problem our buddy @CardinalBacker has is that the Dems have been cheating Trump since before his inauguration.  There's 4 cheats going on right now against a private citizen.  But yet he wants us to believe that the 2020 election was squeaky clean.  No cheating what so ever.  That a brain dead individual got 81 million votes.  But the other guy that was supposed to be so bad got 74 million, the most any President ever got for reelection.  Evil people don't turn on and off their evil cheating ways.

    • You just analogized to a tee the situation going on with the Trump New York trial. And I bet you can't even see the hypocrisy elicited out of your hatred. You once again outed yourself...without any realization of your actions. I'm not sure if Reagan actually set you up to expose your blatant hypocrisy, or if it was just a happy coincidence. You seem to thrive on humiliating yourself. Now get to work on providing that evidence of your emphatic declarations that Trump's economy was horrible. You failed miserably before, I bet you will again.
