I don’t have a problem with Juneteenth being listed as a federal holiday. What’s the harm? It probably should’ve been done long ago.

This may ramble even more, so bear with me. As humans we have mental human limitations (at least I do). I can’t imagine a universe with no end. In my mind, there should be a border, a drop off, a wall - something. Can’t even begin to imagine what would be on the other side of that - something. That mental limitation prevents us from understanding God’s love for us, until something happens to enlighten us somewhat. I use to ask myself, how could God continue to love us when we’re constantly ignoring him and being.....well, bad. Then I got enlightened. Prior to going in Marines, our Grandson worked at Tractor Supply. One day he heard a noise from a pallet full of feed stacked 4 to a layer with a hole in the middle. At the bottom of that hole was a kitten about a month old, skinny & full of fleas. He got her out & brought her home & him & his Dad bathed her and de-fleaed her. He couldn’t keep her in his apartment so she ended up with me & my wife. Took her to the Vet when a little older for shots and neutered. We hadn’t had pets in forever. Didn’t really want one, but inevitably we fell in love with “Maise”. Now some of you have never had cats. They’re to heck & gone from dogs, who (for the most part) are loving & obedient. Cats think they run things. Rarely display affection, and ignore commands. Point is, we still love her - despite the ignoring & lack of affection from her, yep, we still love her. I guess that’s the way God loves us, even when we ignore him, and ignore his Commandments. I hope his post hasn’t offended anyone. It could be construed as being sacrilegious I guess, but certainly not my intention. I do find it amazing that I can learn something about (from?) God from a durn cat, I guess there’s a little bit of God all around us if we just look for him.

I just wish I could get my pay / income returned to pre-Covid amounts. I’m currently at about 50%. Lots of folks still completely out of work or working at decreased payment in the petrochemical industry (not by their own choice). I believe in teachers and their worth, but they may want to be thankful for what they have during these times.

I can tell you from experience that baseball scholarship is way less then football or basketball unfortunately. I agree with you on that. Now long term if someone was good enough, rarely happens, but you can make way more money in baseball.

Awesome. Thanks for the reminder.

Folks today will take honesty over race any time. No offense to Mr. West, I don’t live in Bmt & have no idea of eithers qualifications or background.

My dad told me before he passed, “Do I love you when you’ve disobeyed me or disappointed me - Yes!!! God is a Father and He wants your love but understands you’ll fail Him.” Great post Hagar!!

The announcer called him the Friday night "horse". Ummm. . . Mustang!

It’s cool seeing Dallas do so well. He’s not the pitcher i would’ve predicted to be here from that district during that time frame, but then again, I don’t follow baseball that closely.

God had the answer long before the devil came up with the problem. We must let go of what was... Accept what is.... And Have Faith In What Will Be !!! We can worry or we can Trust God . . . Let us never hesitate to pour out our Hearts to God ! In times of trouble, you will find that Prayer is the shortest route from Our Hearts to God's Ears . . . Our strongest weapon is Patience, and Our Best Security is "FAITH"! So let us Pray... Not until God hears us..... But Until We Listen To God . . . May God's Anointing Continue to Fall Fresh Upon Each of Us. I Pray He Meets Each of Us At Our Needs, & May His Glory Forever "RISE" ! ! ! Bless Now Lord As Only You Can..... Hear Our Prayers & Grant Us Thy Peace....... These & All Things I Humbly Ask & Pray... In Jesus' Name..... AMEN & AMEN ! Bid Farewell To Your Troubles, As You Let God ""HELLO"" Your World !!! Have A Safe, Blessed, & Worry Free day Gnd GRACE IS SUFFICIENT AND HIS MERCIES ENDURE ""FOR E V E R "" !!!

It's at the bottom of the topic list for each forum.

In the 60's the black community embraced MLK and his "I have a dream" The next 50 years, the race baiting of Jesse Jackson and Al (tax dodger) Sharpton. Today a multi-felon, drug addict that they insist must be canonized as a hero for being a drug addict and criminal. Thats your true definition of "diversity and inclusion"...

I wasn’t knocking PAM or United, just using as an example. Point was there’s a lot of schools in this area that don’t produce playoffs in all sports.

It should be pulled down by ropes……IT’S RACIST!

Heading west on I-10, exiting on Major to go to Ford Park was very difficult on the two laned asphalt overpass. Of course you will always have congestion with fair traffic, but there is much more room now with a turnaround.

I have the screenshot of what he said but I’m unable to post the attachment.

1000x everything else but this. As for apart as it seems, my friend. We are actually much closer. If we could just focus on what brings us together. Instead of what drives us away.

In Port Arthur, while our kids play baseball in little league, the focus as they get older is on football and basketball with some track mixed in. Those kids who are good at baseball end up in the Bubble or at West Brook. Like all sports, baseball is year around and most of the opportunities for scholarships are in football and basketball.....

We're starting to get a little too political.

WO-S quarterback position is just the opposite for the first time in probably close to 10 years. I don’t think even the coaches have a 100% clear idea who it will be.

Clearly 14.2 is rattled by the Abseck hire. Easy to see that.

The enterprise needs to give out awards in small and big school divisions, but they won't, it's too much work. To only have ten spots for kids from however many local schools (50? 100? Not sure what their coverage area is), they're clearly trying to avoid giving out 3-4 awards to one school. they easily could've done that with United this year, and Silsbee in years past. The Super Gold teams have never been done well. In high school I was a 4-year first team all-district soccer player, was offensive MVP of the district twice, and set season and career school records in goals and points that haven't been broken 17 years later, and I never even made second team. One year two players from my district who scored less goals and had less assists than me both made the team ahead of me in the same position. It's a cool honor for those who receive it, but those that are left out shouldn't put any stock in it.
