We here. Everyone 0-0. Good luck. Road to Arlington starts now.

Well, I will tell my stance on it. As I always do, I will use the official name of the stadium as currently assigned by the district in game threads and schedule threads. I did it when it was the "Carrol A. "Butch" Thomas Educational Support Center" and I will do it now that it is "Beaumont ISD Memorial Stadium." But as far as use of the "The Butch" in threads, heck I wouldn't be surprised if I use it myself. So while some may react to it negatively that may cause a ruckus that I may have to break up, there will be no penalty for using the name The Butch in a thread. After all, two radio stations that carried local high school football utterly refused to call it "Butch Thomas Educational Support Center" or even "The Butch" rather choosing to call it "Beaumont ISD Stadium."

Bulldogs maul the Stangs in Ned on a clear night, irate Stangs fans blame it on the rain.

And them ppl can kiss my *** cause imma call it The Butch for the foreseeable future.

Them people are going to get you for calling our stadium The Butch 😂😂😂 As far as I’m concerned, that’s the only way I’ll reference it...

We know, you said it at the top of the thread. Physical Post? 🤔

Yeah the best part of this whole video is Cardinalbacker dancing in that green shirt!!

Thursday North Shore vs Katy Friday Nederland vs WOS Saturday Texas vs La Tech

I’be got a feeling several teams going against Newton will run the ole ‘Tango Offense’. 1-2-3-kick

Great post! The influx of Hispanics(majority of them don’t play football) is another player in the downfall of once proud programs.

I was hoping someone would post something like this. Typically in small towns the genetic pool starts to dry up because there's nothing there as far as jobs go. I've always wondered why people think that just because a team had a string or 4-5 really good years that they're always going to have the same talent pool. I know of a small community that feels that way on I-45 just south of Huntsville that forgets about which hurricane made them good; not the home town gene pool. Navasota's talent was starting to dry up before Lee left there. If you look at Coldspring here lately kids have either been going to Willis, Huntsville, or Livingston. I'm not saying Brenham wasn't bad, but Glen had a way with those kids. And even before Glen finally retired their football participation numbers started to go down. It's interesting to see all the people that get on these message boards and are quick to point out the coaches that had great success there and tag that to the sole reason for these programs hitting "droughts". I think there's too many times where we think high school football is like college football and expect those programs to be dominating year in and year out. No one every really brings up Bay City anymore. Why don't they? With some mindsets I'm sure BC should be playing for the state championship year in and year out. Texas City, Lamarque (yes, I know what's going on there), Daingerfield, etc. They all fall prey to small town over expectations, small town last names wanting more glory, or even a lack of a local economy stable enough to support families.

Shame. That's why I tell people all of the time that playing college ball in any sport on any level is much more difficult to accomplish than realized. It's not just about skill. It's also grades, mentality, and life in general that can get in the way. I guess he'll join the crowd of who knows how many small town kids.. "I would've play college ball but (fill in the blank)"..

That’s whats up Grad, I don't care what these other idiots say about you.

Why do y'all torture that man like that!

Plenty of seats on the Bellaire side for you...😂

Work vs. Work

Bulldogs bite the ponies second year in a row 😎

Wishing Evadale the best of luck as they start this new season....

First game. Jitters. Mistakes. Nerves. Go with Indians on tradition. PNG by 10.

Will be on tv on ESPNU

I'm in Silsbee now. Casa Ole has a sign Welcoming the PNG Indians to the Tiger Den They must know we like to eat.

It will come down to the run. If Silsbee can run freely & stop PNG from running, Tigers win. If PNG can run the ball, and stop the Tigers from running all over, Indians win. PNG QB Bost will be an important factor. If he gets in trouble, he can run. If his passing is on target, he can kill you with quick short passes. I know, for a fact, that this game will benefit both teams, going farther into the season. READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!

I'm with Soulja for the win but I stand by my earlier concerns. Silsbee is gonna have to score in bunches... If it's a win...it's gonna be a close one. Tigers 30 Indians 28

+10,000

I hope they are more flexible, and reactive. Canadian killed us with their strong safety on the Jett sweep in the state game. Neece didn't have an answer for it. A soft pass behind the safety would have neutralized that play. We'll see.

Well the time has come. The waiting is over. Good luck to all and may everybody stay healthy. Remember everybody this is high school football, a bunch of kids that have sweated a lot for this opportunity. May the best team win(unless you play us). Everybody have a good year. Let the games begin.

I told you I still get nauseous to this day when I think about this series of events... why you gotta do me like that? I didnt want to be taken to THAT place being that HS kickoff happens in a few hours. Lmbo

Eat what you want, as long as you are a Pure Purple Pride Indian fan, it's all good.

I'm sure there have been more than people think.. to say someone is possibly the best to ever come through because he led his team to some wins over some crappy teams is a little much. I'm not saying the kid couldn't play.. but even at a school such as Hardin with all of their great football tradition (sarcasm) they have had some athletes I'm sure.

Nuh uh no rain needed. Nederland can start watering down the field with those hoses anytime they feel ready to start pouring. 😃 lol

Starting my 54th season of PNG Football, as a devoted Indian Fan, at Silsbee Tiger Stadium Friday Night. Just picked up the away game tickets.

Ha ha, irks me too. He capitalized that K for Katy but couldn’t show the N in North Shore any respect even after beating them twice last year and winning state...😏 North Shore takes this one...

Newton has two seniors that hold D1 offers. Zach Gulley - ULM (look for him to add several to the list through his senior campaign) James Sylvester - Alabama, TCU, Florida St., Arkansas, LSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, etc.

West Brook VS Bellaire @ The Butch

If I took SS starting today it shows that I will get $2,100 a month. $1M would be the equivalent of getting that $2,100 until I was 103 years old. Nice thought but I am guessing that I won’t make it that far.... And that is putting it in the bank and not investing with it.

Anthony Scott went and played at University of Texas around 85-86

Timberwolves get revenge and run Panthers off of their own field 35-24

Friday: United @ St. Pius

The atmosphere is that ballerina prancing around, that's what I was told by a Groves resident. Who knows.

Apparently, from what I've learned, you only get major Atmosphere at The Rez. At least that's what I've been told... because I still don't know what atmosphere is...

Whatever game has the most physical speed on display... and a little atmosphere wouldn't hurt. Thursday - Bethel @ Lamar U. Friday- United @ St. Pius X

Lmao! You still at it, and a year later. That is commitment! I've been enjoying reading all the speculation from folks who ain't in the know. Keep it up, its juicy! Well I was just dropping by. I figured Roschons biggest fan would have an opinion on him having to be an emergency Rb. Ill probably check back in the season to see how yall doing but it seems not much has changed lol

I'm taking Nederland in this one. I think they'll win their district straight up this year. That's not a knock on WOS as they always have a good team I just think the dogs will be a bit better than usual this year.

generally speaking on the subject, you have to consider other things besides coaching people....LIFE! families are moving to other places now. talent is getting spread out. seems as though districts are opening new schools every year. another factor is, maybe, juuuust maybe other programs are building up now and no longer intimidated by history and atmosphere. too bad teams and/or fans can't shake that mentality in setx...well one team/fan base has atleast....maybe two.

I believe this game will depend on how well Nederlands O-line plays. They will have their hands full with that WOS D-Line. Go Dogs!

Due to only having two healthy running backs on the roster. Not because of his play at QB. He is the 3rd QB and emergency RB if needed. He could likely thrive at RB.

I don't know, let's just say Newton is building a kicker,......but hey .......are them Mustangs gonna be able to compete in 3a this year ?

Hardin won in 3

From what im told he had surgery in the Spring on his right foot, healed up, then hurt his left foot. If he plays at all this season it'll be playoff time IMO. They still set at WR though.
