I'm kind of amazed this dicussion is still going on. When the former TASO board decided to switch there affiliation and take up with the UIL it was put to a chapter vote. A number of the current TASO group voted to go with UIL. Their vote was done so that they could start another chapter because they simply didn't like some of the members of the UIL board. It's that simple. It has caused numerous rifts this year with schools as well as taken a number of games from either chapter being able to call that game. I'm a member of the UIL chapter and have many friends that chose to go with the TASO Chapter. The UIL chapter has done the best the best work they could this year and the TASO chapter, as far as I know, has done the same.
One of the reasons the officials listed as the number 1, 2 & 3 officials in the chapter is because they are some of the best referees in the area. The TASO group has some excellent officials as well that would be in the top five or ten had they stayed with UIL. It is our hope that this mess will be solved before the next season comes around because refereeing balls games is not about how great the officials are...I doubt any of you come to games to check out the refs...it's about the kids who participate and the fans and the coaches...not the referee's.
We hate the fact there are good quality officials in the area who are not calling games right now because they don't like the system in place. Come back and help change the system...don't just quit because you didn't a game you think you deserved or becasue you don't like the board...come back and help change it. To all of you who may think you'd like to referee we would love to have you come and join our chapter...we always need new officals to replace us old guys who will not be around forever.

[/quote] I'm not angry, just stating the cold hard facts. I finally got to look at your top five. Sorry, I was dead on the money. 1-Garrett,2-Guidry,3-Abernathy,4-Hines, 5-Kenny Jones. So what part of the"new & improved" board ratings should I be surprised with. You're a little testy yourself, though.

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
