BAXTER is the best hitter on this year's team NO DOUBT. You'd be a fool not to think so yourself.  You must not come to many games.  You hang e'm we bang e'm. haha. Cub has been seeing it well and is having a great year. But the offensive MVP from last year is my vote until he proves me otherwise.  One bad game does not make him move down in the lineup bud.

I think Tracy Franklin was the best hitter to come through Buna High School .  He hit 84 not 82 homeruns in  high school. He not only hit the homeruns he had a high batting average because he usually got on base one way or the other. We have some good ones comming up mabey they can be as good.  I agree that Nathan Ross was a great catcher proably the best Buna has had. :) :)

Come on now guys yall are crazy...While Tracy Franklin and Big nate ross were excellent hitters they were nowhere close to comparing the best of all time which would be none other than a young man named BO JOE FEA!!! he is without a doubt the most consistent hitter i the history of the buna cougars...and while he is a clear all out favorite the second best hitter in Buna history would have to be without a doubt from the class of 2003 Mr. Will Dinkle...these are facts guys...look at the stats they dont lie!!!!

The alltime record for homeruns in high school is 75. It was done by Jeff Clement of marshalltown iowa it was set in 2002. The old record before that was 70 set by Drew Henson 1998 was backup qb for dallas. Tracy may have hit alot but no where near 84. I dont know if tracy hit more than bucky g or nathan r either.

In the mid 80's Buna had a very good basball team.  If I remember correctly the best hitter on that team was Randy Moss.  He could have played college baseball but chose to play football instead.  I think he batted over 500. He was not a pure power hitter but could spray the ball around the field, hit a ton of doubles and at any time could hit it out of the park... He was also a dang good catcher...  But, that whole team could hit.

Randy Moss made a great decision choosing football over baseball.  He played 4 years for McNeese, all-conference linebacker.  My dad still says he is probably the best athlete to ever come out of Buna.  And he can still kick your a-- if it needs kickin'!

    • Heading into the summer and before two a days get going… what are some concerns or positives about your team heading into next season? I’d like to hear from some H-F people because according to some they are the district favorites heading into the season. I’m just trying to pass some time at least until we get our DCTF magazines lol For Bellville my concern is filling some holes on defense… specifically at LB,S, and DT… bright spots ? Basically the entire offensive line returns that paved the way for 3 RBs to rush for more than 1600 yards a  on the season (2 of those RBs will return as well). With all that said Bellville should still be a region favorite this upcoming season.
    • That’s not a choice, it’s the same thing and equally dangerous.    I’ve literally heard (with my own listening ears) the R County Chairman boast in a speech that “the only time I’ve ever voted for a Democrat was when I voted for Hillary in the Democrat primary! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!” You’ll never guess who is tweeting all over the place about how we need closed primaries this week.  Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  Escalation of force.  These are concepts that you completely understand and teach.  Whatever we do today, we’ll pay for tomorrow. Impeach a President over something stupid? They’ll impeach yours twice.  Promise to lock up your political rival if you get elected? You can’t cry over somebody else doing it to you… even if you were just blowing a little smoke for the morons.   The old days of “don’t throw rocks if you live in glass houses” has now become “I’m pretty sure I’ve got more rocks than they do.” The frightening thing is that Ds only do it to Rs. Rs do it to Ds and other Rs alike without hesitation.  
    • Definitely does NOT sound like a fit for PN-G.
    • No offense, but both sides do it.  The Rs in Texas want to do away with decades of precedent and demand that Dems are no longer given chair positions on any committees in the Tx House. It sounds reasonable enough, until you arrive at a point when the Ds enjoy a single seat majority in the house, select the most leftist speaker of all times, and the refuse to give Rs any say in the legislative process by refusing to give them any committee chairs.     Experience has shown me that any time a party seeks to consolidate power in a legislative body, it backfires.    What I don’t like is a world where we cheer for Manchin for doing his own thing, but also re-elect guys like Paxton and Patrick when they make threats to R Legislators if they don’t do exactly what the Radical Right demands. Our Rep here in Hardin County lost his spot for voting against private school vouchers-his wife is a teacher. He also voted his conscience on the Paxton impeachment.  It cost him his seat…. Not because of the will of the voters in his district, but because if millions of outside dollars pumped into the race from outside the district and even an endorsement of his unknown challenger by Donald Trump himself.    Why do people like you applaud Manchin for being his own man and then vote against Phelan for doing the same thing?
