Hopefully Shepard can move down to 3a soon. Tough for them to compete with 4a teams.

And as the 59 corridor continues to grow do not expect Shepherd to drop down soon as they are only 9 miles away from Cleveland and every time I pass through there Shepherd continues to grow... Mark my words in the next 2-4 seasons expect the Pirates to be 4A-D1

guessing carthage meets china spring 3rd game then bellville or wos 4th game.  been so long since they had serious competition not sure how good they really are.  plenty of other good teams later in the playoffs so nothing is a given.  got to play disciplined football by the time you get 3 rounds in.

I think the winner of Silsbee/Sealy (Which I think will be Sealy) could maybe give China Spring a game.

You may be right, but since the last realignment we only grew by 8 kids. So that is not growth like the Cleveland area by no means. A lot of the families that were here thru the early 2000's are leaving for a new group that has started to move in. Still it is going to be hard to grow when there are no homes to rent or room to build, Due to bigger acreage being own by families. Home shortages is one reason we can't get or keep good teachers (besides what the school district pays), or so they say.

Shepherd not only has a hard time completing in football, the other sports are as bad or worse. For example (if we stay in the same district with the same schools) Splendora will have something like 704 more kids than Shepherd does, as Coldspring will only have something like 39 less kids than Shepherd. It is a no win for use either way.

Of course not... It's crazy that Cleveland will be rolling out with 6A numbers maybe they can start zoning North Cleveland (maybe) into some of the Coldspring and Shepherd areas to take some students off their hands.  As far as Shepherd competing in any sport don't get me started as me being a person that play for both Shepherd and Coldspring, the Pirates never had a decent season when I went there lol.  Let's just say we were getting our arse handed to on many occasions lol but when I went back to Coldspring we were definitely dishing out the arse whoopings.

I do not disagree that Shepherd has never been a sports powerhouse or ever will. I assume you graduated in 08? So you should know that in the last 10 years the tide has changed in the Coldspring vs. Shepherd games. So that is a tell-tell sign for both schools athletic programs. Coldspring is not no where who they used to be (and that is not a dig, just the truth), and that goes for all sports. We can't live in the past so those arse whoopings you are talking about, are few and far apart these days. Please don't say it is because Shepherd is 4A and Coldspring is 3A cause there are way few differences in school size than the team We play in district. I do wish you guys luck in the playoffs and hope you go on a deep run.

I do believe Shepherd will get some sort of break this next alignment Tarkington numbers are higher that the past, as well as diboll.. Coldspring at 492, I can see some changes coming

Yes I graduated in 08' and yes I know what's going on with the past 10 seasons or so between the 2 schools and it has nothing to do with whos bigger or smaller it has everything to do with the athletes... Most of the students that goes to Coldspring right now or for the past decade (expect for our state run seaaons) they have been more focus on basketball than anything or the lack of participation of football.  It was going towards that even during my years there.

      Well, the ones who are upset by this are the same ones who can’t define a woman. There was another woman who everybody came down on for hunting. We are a nation of the offended.

      For what it’s worth, polling after this came out show her with an 81% disapproval rating.  Only 21% of republicans said she’d be a good choice for veep, and only 28% of self-identified “very conservative” voters said she’s a good option.  Bragging about killing a dog apparently resonates poorly across political affiliations.

      They don’t, and they won’t.  May not be an issue in South Dakota, but certainly is on the national stage.  Even my mother in law, who strictly watches OAN and thinks Trump is a great guy who’s never committed a crime in his life is completely disgusted by this.  I know about bad dogs, and don’t have an issue with what she did,  and I’m sure most of us on here agree.  But as is often this case, it’s not going to be our opinions that decide this election.  I thought she might be a valuable running mate that could bring in the female vote, but I’m hoping Trump has the sense to stay away from her now.

      I like the approach, here it is, if you don’t like it don’t vote for me, it’s refreshing to see the Ronald Reagan approach. Not every statement needs to be based on a perceived reaction from folks. Don’t think for a minute democrats didn’t have this knowledge, just not the right time to use it, remember Romney and the dog carrier, they knew.
