Recommended Posts

From NDNBand69:

"One of our fellow Indians from the Round Rock area sent me this image to pass along.

This is a shot as the celebration begins in the 1975 State final game PNG vs Odessa Permian.
The team lifts Coach Doug Ethridge on their shoulders as the Indian faithful celebrate. "

PN-G should NEVER forget the joy of that championship.  They are not easy, so when you get one, cherish it FOREVER....  No jab at any other team in the area, but I will tell you,  statewide conversations always include WO-S and PN-G when people find out you are from the Golden Triangle.  Just a fact.  Hey, WO-S was THE place to be in Texas, during the 80's.  Coach Hooks mentioned the old gun-slinger the other night that may have slowed down a little but nobody wants to face him.  Well, it's the case with PN-G and WO-S....  They are KNOWN around the state and respected....

Also, that picture is someting that the GOLDEN TRIANGLE should be proud of......

Thanks....Just wanted to share a GREAT moment from the past. Actually, my hats off to ALL these fine young men that go out there each and every Friday night, play their hearts out, for our entertainment.  Best of luck to ALL the area teams.  I pray God's mercy on each and every participant and fan as we begin the 2010 football season.  God Bless!

Thanks for sharing that picture.Great comments from wosmustangs,Majestyk, and Jackthehammer. We should never forget our past, and be proud of a great accomplishment such as that. They don't come easy--if they did, then everyone would have one.I hope this year our area schools can bring several state titles home!

Awesome pic, I was able to make the semi-final game in the dome against SA Lee.  Very good PN-G team.  jhamilton, how old are you, 6?  If you can't live in the past what do you have, get a life.

    • 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.
