Heard at the Football game the other night that East Chambers does not want to continue to play HF in the Rice Bowl any longer.  Not sure the reason besides HF winning the last 3 years. I think before the last 3 games that EC won many years. The kids will be sad, but it is what it is.

Winnie is turning into a small version of Pasadena, or so it appears. Soccer likely will be excellent for them but if they can't bring in more Beaumont skill position players like they did a few years ago to elevate their program it is likely on a slow decline. 

It seems to me those bmt skill positions in the past have now decided to go to HF…

There is nothing wrong with playing with what you got.  EC will be fine.  It's a great school and town and will continue attract good students and athletes.  

Great school? I don't know, but definitely not a great town. Not sure if you ever lived there, but my experience says otherwise...

EC has a lot of talent in their freshman group. One of them plays qb on varsity right now. They probably have some really good seasons coming up in the near future

If so, I am surprised they just dropped out of the Rice Bowl. Seems they would want to play, correct?  

In any case I was talking medium to longer term. I have no idea who is coming up in the next 1-3 years for them. Winnie is changing, futbol will benefit. Zero doubt about that. 

On a related matter, Chambers Co. just voted to build a massive jail and Justice Center (Courts) in Anahuac. Look for Anahuac's population to further accelerate.

What is a “Beaumont skill player”?

I have no clue about which direction Winnie is going in the long term but I think this thread is probably false news

Born and raised.  It may have changed a little since I’ve lived there but still a nice place.

I know Chambers Co. pretty good. Look up the composition of the elementary school there. Your jaw might drop. But if you think that's all false, its perfectly fine with me. Don't care.

The demographics of Winnie have definitely changed more than other small town in the area. If kids that play only soccer or sports other than football and basketball are ever allowed in the athletic period, the days of the football program being solid will decline quite rapidly. The possible decline may be happening regardless. Hate it for some of the people I know there, but the demographics are shifting and interest area in sport(s) may follow. 

The athletic period issue...well its a great way to keep kids playing football that otherwise may not wish to do so...ethical...you be the judge.

      LIBERTY vs SALADO

      The forecast for Huntsville looks brutal for this game. Houston TV says 3"-5" of rain this evening there. Hope they are wrong and you get this in though.

      Who Will Be President Trump's VP Pick?!

      By SmashMouth · Posted

      1. Trump has been the president before, and you're saying he has a chance of winning again due to Biden's poor performance. And you're agreeing that he's a turd sandwich (fair). Wouldn't it stand to reason then that Trump must not have had a poor performance during his presidency (since that's the only reason you're saying Biden would lose) which refutes your claim that the only reason Trump stands a chance is due to Biden's poor performance? You would have been better served to say that the only reason DJT may lose the presidency is because his personality is unappealing to many (turd sandwich). I'll take effective over feelings 8 days out of 7. 2. In my opinion, the major reason Biden has any shot at winning is TDS, a country that is slowly but surely being indoctrinated to socialistic thinking and a left-wing media bias that won't report what's truly happening. Definitely not going to win on the real issues. The real issues that are going to sink Biden: a. Wokeness and his unwillingness to stand up to it. He promised centrality, but instead took a hard left into oncoming traffic. b. Economy - go to the grocery store, and you'll see what I mean. c. Immigration - It's a dangerous free for all that is a huge national security risk, a personal safety risk, a health risk & an economic crisis for any city that has to take care of these illegal migrants. All to gain the Democrats millions of votes and control of the government basically forever. d. Energy - I could speak volumes, but you know what I mean. e. Crime and anti-LE sentiment - Turn on the news. f. Handling of COVID-19 - Biden did everything in his power to shut this country down short of martial law Get past the turd sandwich and do what's right for you, your family & the country as a whole.
