I first met Stan when Clay was at Jasper. Jasper had just came down to 3A and entered Huntington’ district. It became a quick rivalry with within the first two years as the four games produced eleven overtime’s. Stan always jokingly referred to the Huntington police as the gestapo. Lol. He would often text laughable things to my phone. We will miss him. The board won’t be the same. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

Random User...it is A-OK to disagree with someone...differences of opinion make the world go round...that said, express your differences without harsh names and ugly words. Civility and common sense applies to us all. Go Indians. Peace.

I am not surprised by the new AD decisions at all, everything he has touched has turned to crap . Whats surprising is, the worst athletic program Lamar has had in the last 20 years or so haven't been touched which is Track and Field . Tic Price was at least trying to recruit local talent, and out of 7 seasons only had 2 losing seasons . This new AD is a looser and has come in and is destroying Lamar entire athletic program right before our eyes.

I see. and I do agree about following the rules especially when asked. I haven’t worn a mask in a private business since this China virus came into this country and I have only been approached by an employee once...we were very civil in our conversation and after stating my stance the employee let me continue shopping. (I pointed to some of the other employees and some didn’t have one on so he had no leg to stand on) now if he asked me to leave I would do so and go spend my money elsewhere.

And you ask a hypothetical question, what if more people did the same thing or all at once. I don’t know I’m not the manager of that bank. Maybe they would have the masses against them and they would give up or maybe they would lock the door and let one person in at a time if they were a mask. You would have to ask the bank manager what he would do, not me.

Those were my thoughts exactly. We would have had a core of a basketball team that was looking pretty good at the end of the year coming back. While Tic Price was not setting the world on fire I felt he was decent and just a good player or two from making the jump. Robin Harmony left the women's basketball program two years ago after a 115-66 record; since then the women have been 20-34. Holly Bruder took a start up women's softball team to the NISC championship game after 5 years. This year the softball record so far is 2-24. She was terminated on a claim of religious discrimination. The soccer team is doing good so maybe that can be destroyed next.

Uncle Sam sent about 500,000 to liberate one peaceful country from another. Got back in ‘91 and about ten years later they repaid us. Welcome to the forum.

Nice post, what are you a random user of?

Initially, she did not break a law. What she did though was disregard a public policy of a private business, i.e., she failed to wear a mask inside the premises of the business. When asked to comply with the policy, she refused. Since she refused, the business asked her to leave. The business has that right. She refused to leave. Now, she is committing a crime of trespassing. All she had to do was comply with the policy or leave. She refused to do both. Let’s use an analogy. When a patron visits a restaurant, he or she must abide by the restaurant’s policies. For example, no shirt, no shoes, no service. Other high-end restaurants require some patrons to wear a coat and tie. If you refuse, they will ask you to leave. If you refuse to leave, you’re committing the crime of trespassing. Just like if you go to McDonald’s with no shirt or no shoes, McDonald’s can ask you to leave. If you refuse, you’re trespassing. This lady refused to comply with the bank’s policy of wearing a mask inside the building. The bank asked her to leave. She refused. That’s criminal trespassing. If you do not like the policies of the business, do not do business there. Call them, close your account by phone or online, and have your money wired elsewhere. No need to go there in person and escalate the situation. Use common sense. Go Indians. Peace.

Great post TH. Agree 100%. BTW, an interesting bit about steve - When he first moved down here, his first job was at Wickersham Ford in Orange. if you’re older, you probably remember the ad line “ If anybody can, Wickersham can”. steve is the one that came up with that.

This one has been hard to shake. I knew him before I knew this board existed. I enjoyed reading stevenash’s posts before I found out stevenash was Stan. When I did it was quite a trip. He loved having discussions on a variety of subjects, politics obviously being one of his favorites. As you all know, I probably disagreed as often as we agreed. But I didn’t feel like he ever thought less of me when we did, and I can promise that was mutual. One thing I appreciated (as I do with some of the others I know here - Hagar, BSW; and some I don’t know personally - LRF, baddog) is that we could disagree and keep it cordial. We could have different opinions and still respect one another...hell even enjoy one another’s company. It’s a shame that is becoming exceedingly rare. I will miss being reading stevenash’s posts on this site. I will miss being able to text him when I have a question I know he will know the answer to. But most of all I will miss that smile of his that he always seemed to wear, a smile that filled his entire face. Continued prayers for his wife, kids, grandkids, and all of his loved ones.

Crisis at border will now be even more ignored due to mass killing spree in Colorado.....so now the media will focus on gun control..... nothing to see here people 🤦‍♂️ if people would only realize the more secure our borders are the less problems we have to deal with.

Kinda surprised this hasn't popped up being a sports board and all. My thought are these... if somebody pops up making an allegation against a kid that just signed a $140 million contract, you kind of have to take it with a grain of salt. When those allegations start coming from every angle, you then have to start thinking about the whole "smoke/fire" analogy. When 24 different women come out with the same allegation, you then have to wonder how many are just trying to slide in for a quick buck. My thought... Deshuan has access to trainers, chiros, and massage therapists through the team. If he found a therapist that he liked better, then I wouldn't be surprised if he kept using that person outside of the team. BUT, if a dude keeps trolling instagram trying to find dozens of attractive massage therapists and uses them only once... I'm guessing that he likes doing his routine on fresh faces, if you know what I mean. FWIW, I know a massage therapist in Beaumont that carries a .380 into the treatment room and claims to have actually pulled the thing out twice on patients by whom she felt threatened. My OPINION is that the man is a line-crosser. The really impressive thing is watching how the media is doing their best to avoid talking about it. Who do they back? Do they come out in defense of the powerless women or the upwardly mobile young black man? Either way, they're gonna make a bunch of their own angry. Deshaun is basically getting a pass by the media at this point, or the accusers are getting a grave injustice in regards to the lack of publicity.

Never for football been this low. Varsity had 18-19 every week and The last 2 JV games there were 11. All the rest 14-15

Everyone that wants to further an agenda to disarm Americans.

In order for the communists to take over completely, they have to turn everyone against the white man. They have to show the white man’s life means nothing and that the white man is against all other races. Funny how all other races can show their pride, but if a white man does it, he is racist. What a load of crap, but it’s happening. Then, they have to disarm all citizens. That will start a civil war. I’m not giving mine up. Too many young men have died so that I can have all of my rights, which includes the right to keep and bear arms. Ok, rant over for now.

I can't believe getting rid of those Dr. Seuss books didn't stop the shooting in Colorado.

This is what I think of when I see your name:

Orangefield won 14-9

Man, I thought just the people on this board thought it was Biden’s policies. Everyone else blamed Trump.

Her contract with the bank doesn’t mention masks. It probably doesn’t mention clothing either. What does that have to do with anything? I will answer this again since a couple of times doesn’t seem to be enough. There is no contract that allows her access to the bank lobby with no rules. The Americans with Disabilities Act says that you can deny access if it is for safety of other patrons of the business but even in this case, she made no such claim of a disability. Her only stance was and is, I don’t have to. If they denied a person access because the person was in a wheelchair or walked with crutches, that would violate the ADA because it cannot have an effect on someone else. She was denied for not wearing a mask which is a health concern for other people. The bank is required to make reasonable accommodations. That could be walking up to a drive through since she claimed to be pulling a rig or they could have brought the papers outside to her. But again, she never claimed that she couldn’t wear a mask, only that she didn’t have to comply. Her response should have been to leave and discuss it outside. She chose instead to violate the law, which she already had before the officer arrived. Even on the police body cam, she was making no contractual demand. She said the governor told her through his executive order that she could stay. She was wrong, the officer told her she was wrong and she could have stepped outside to discuss it. She chose to stand on her ignorant of the law ground. There is no constitutional or Texas legal grounds for her to demand being on that property. But I can feel the response that coming.... what if you don’t like the law...

For the 3rd consecutive game, Cards go to extra innings. Bridge City 6 Silsbee 6, end of 7

Says the voice that can never answer a question when presented with fact or truth.

Tied 7-7 in extras.

This administration is a complete disaster...and it won’t get any better when the political whore takes over.

I had to edit. I got back in 91, which is when Desert Shield / Storm happened. My son was born in ‘92, and they had an assembly line going in the base hospital’s nursery. I wonder what caused that?

0-9 BH

My son was in Desert Storm with the First Marines. Btw, I noticed all the victims were white. Had they been asians, it would be a hate crime. Guess killing whites is okay. Am I bitter? You bet.

17-0 HJ Final Collin Pomirko with a no-hitter 13Ks

Where did I “spread hate” at? I got to spend about seven months with the “peaceful” people.

Prejudiced, or intelligent enough to know Muslims have killed thousands of Americans? A brain eating amoeba would starve to death in your head, you goober headed moron. Have you forgotten about 9:11?

Kirbyville up 3-0 after 1

That part always seems to go over the heads of some people. I have seen so many threads on this topic and people get emotional about “liberty!”..... Yet completely ignore the liberty of private property. Conservatives/libertarians that claim to want less government intervention (and I agree) in this case want the government to step in and force a private property owner to not control access to their own property. I wonder if they believe it should be that way at their home. Anyone that wants to come in, can and you cannot stop them or set rules.

I'm not saying I know anything about the situation or anything, because I don't. But I do know that there is ALWAYS more than one side to a story. And I know that just because something appears in a news article doesn't make it factual. I think we can all agree to that. We'll see I guess. I know not to long ago Hamshire Fannett went after a coach for "over disciplining" so to speak.. and it turned out to be misleading. I'll wait until the facts come out before stating my opinion. Which is what all should do.

Not sure on our whole district but Jasper Offensive MVP - Shabralyn Watson - Senior New Comer - TyTiauna McQueen - Sophomore First Team - Aaliyah Robinson -also All Region - Senior Second Team - ShaNiyah McBride - Senior Second Team - TyErica McQueen - Sophomore Interesting - two years in a row District Champions or Co-Champions with out getting a vote for a kid to be MVP of the district. Sure like the way 22 4A understood how that stuff should go.

I carry concealed under LEOSA when I am off duty. However, there are places I still cannot carry when signs are posted. I am not above the Law and even though I may have good intentions I still must obey and take heed to posted and or verbal rules of a business or private property. If I come over to your house as private citizen and you just so happen to see my concealed weapon and you ask me to leave. I must obey and leave. Over 500,000 people young and old have lost the lives to COVID and there are new variants that are out. Just put the mask on. I have Cancer and many other health issues. I truly appreciate and thank all who do wear the mask.

So excited my kid got to be a part of it, Trinity University shared the regular (shortened) season SCAC championship with Colorado College and then yesterday Trinity University won the 2021 SCAC conference tournament championship! As a Freshman this year, she only saw 4 total minutes of action over 2 games, COVID restrictions have limited the opportunities for the Freshman on the team this year. As you can see they have a very talented team. Nevertheless she is a part of a talented team and one day will get her opportunity to fill the shoes and legacy the upperclassman leave behind. Go Trinity Tigers!!!

I realize if you would like to make up your own laws Texas law says it if you’re on property and fail to leave after being toody or have been given notice, you are guilty of criminal trespass. I think the actual law has been posted on here a couple of times. You can choose to ignore it if you wish but it is a lot. As the saying goes, you’re entitled to your opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts. The fact is she was told to leave several times by management and the officer. She refused. That is criminal trespass in Texas. A couple of days later after she got out of jail, she got on television and stated exactly the same thing. She was told to leave and she refused in her own words. Basically she confessed to the crime.

Public access has nothing to do with trespassing. Private property does. She broke the law, did it on camera and then got on a news interview and stated that she did it. I guess even her admission is not enough when you don’t like the argument.

Exactly!! As much as I don’t like wearing the mask, if I go into a privately owned business that requires one to be worn, I will put it on. This woman was looking for confrontation, and when it found her, she wants to cry foul. She’s just plain stupid, imo. She got what she deserved.

Buddy, the mask mandate is stupid. Even without it, a privately owned business can require it. What would it hurt for her to have put on the mask and close her account. Hopefully she has enough in her account to pay the self-imposed fines she will incur. I think she should take whatever she has left in that bank and signup for anger management classes.

Own BOA for reporting a crime?

Who cares.. getting a state championship trumps whatever ranking there is. I think.

You’re right. It should’ve never come to this. The lady should’ve put on the mask or left. You can do anything you want online. I haven’t stepped foot in a bank in 3 or 4 years.

And you sound like an absolute moron

Shouldn’t be unpopular. Spot on.

She should have went to the drive through, had them send her a check, or put on a stupid mask. Sometimes you lose the battle AND the war.

I wish people weren’t so stupid. Believe in wearing a mask or not, that’s private property. Play by the rules or pay the consequences. I don’t wear one either, unless I’m requested to go so by the business. At that point, I can choose to comply or leave.
