Coach Harrell at Ennis represents one of the most miraculous comeback stories in all of high school football. He is a close friend of mine and after a debilitating battle with MS, was forced to retire shortly after winning his 2nd state championship at Ennis. After a few attempts at Stem Cell Therapy, he was able to get back into coaching in a limited capacity. Now, he is hopping around like a teenager after being bound to a walker/wheelchair...and back at the school he once retired from. Trust me.. somebody cares. While not relevant to this game specifically, the fact that Ennis is 8-0 with him at the helm again is pretty heroic. Maybe you don't care... but somebody cares. I personally get chill bumps thinking about Ennis even being in these types of conversation.. knowing what I know.2 points -
BH Vs Dayton
jayhawk and one other reacted to Cougar14.2 for a topic
Like BH fan said, it's a trap game for them. BH comes in knowing they should roll but if they turn it over a time or two early I can see them tightening up Dayton making a game out of it. The kids from Dayton will be looking to ruin BH's season which is the next thing to a playoff spot for them. Again, BH should roll but sometime that's exactly why it doesn't happen.2 points -
Santa Fe vs Crosby
MrFleet23 reacted to Cougar14.2 for a topic
Really no need for a Crosby thread this week, or for that matter next week. As long as Crosby can squeak by Santa Fe we will play from the pole position in the district no matter what happens at Nederland next week. Prior to the season starting I said Crosby would be better next year than they will be this year. Main reason I said that is because of the talent in the classes coming up the next few years. The juniors like Myles and Womack will be the centerpieces for next year’s squad but if you’re a Crosby fan you should be excited to see the future on the field Friday night. Some of Crosby’s starters will not play and as such you’re going to see a bunch of sophomores and even freshman on the field for homecoming this Friday. List of underclassmen who will be playing Friday night(I think I’m missing at least one more sophomore and possibly another freshman): Offense Kade Eudy(#13) - QB(10) Levi Fontenot (#12) - RB(10) Wesley Yarborough(?) - RB(9) Levi Langley(#60) - OT(10) *May be missing a sophomore offensive lineman here? Defense Tyler LaRive(#25) - LB(10) Jonah Griffen(#27) - LB(10) Copelin Windfont(#42) - LB(9) Brett Wright(#1) - DB(10) Joel(Jojo) Peredes - DB(10) I counted twelve of these kids during my pre-season research which is why I’m pretty sure I’m missing some? These are just the ones I know for sure off the top of my head who will be seeing extended minutes Friday night. There are no kids on the list strictly for size and athletic ability either, besides the two freshman everybody on the list has already produced on varsity this year in their giving reps.1 point -

Nope. Their game against LCM was worse than what HH is gonna give them. Still, don’t let the guard down. Instead of “Block out the noise, play clean and hit the man in front of you.” I’m saying “Make some noise, get away with anything you can and hit EVERYBODY!” Vidor wins…1 point -

both. and also staff morale plays a big part of it, and love of community. you have kids out here that respect their elders, love their school and community, and know they'll get their butts busted if they mess up. You have staff that loves their job, gets treated with respect by school officials, and are backed up by those officials when there's an issue in the classroom. The same is true for several districts in this area. But when you run into districts where there's no sense of community amongst students, no respect for authority, and where district officials don't back up their teachers, you end up with 6 lockdowns in two weeks.1 point -

BH Vs Dayton
Separation Scientist reacted to BHFAN for a topic
Dayton has some flashes of being good, but just can’t tie things together. QB is good and the RB Washington is a good athlete, but doesn’t seem to have much field vision. Is the QB and RB underclassmen? Dayton will come to play as 14.2 mentioned Broncos would like nothing more than to knock us off at home. For BH I just want to see the discipline keep improving, I think BH only has 2 personals last game. Let’s get that down to 0 !1 point -

My prediction is that TC loses to PNG and BH. I think Crosby exposed TC's defense and PNG and Bh have enough talent to take lessons from the Crosby TC game and execute. I predict TC falling to 4th. 1. Crosby 8-0 2. PNG 6-2 3. BH 6-2 4. TC 5-3 5. Nederland 5-3 The big problem for Nederland is they have to play Crosby still. After last years game and all the rah rah on twitter I'm pretty sure Crosby is going to be up for that one this year. Even if it likely won't matter for the DC.1 point

in hindsight, yes. It’s crazy how that works. If we knew exactly what was going to happen before it happened, the world would be a lot better place and some people could make millions of dollars in sports betting. Maybe this, maybe that… but you can bet out of hundreds or thousands of movies and many thousands of action sequences, the actors are not checking to see if the firearms/stunt expert accidentally put a live round in it. When Brandon Lee was killed, there were no charges filed. That does not mean they won’t be in this case because it is a different set of circumstances and a different set of state laws. But in that case Lee was killed with an actual bullet. Would an actor have known to look down the barrel to make sure the gun was clear when he saw an actual blank put into it? Under the United States Supreme Court phrase of “objective reasonableness”, they said that the police must be judged in the use of force or deadly force by what a reasonable police officer would do, not a civilian or someone judging it later knowing additional facts. It is not intentionally the same however it is the same concept. In Graham v. Connor where the police kind of kicking the crap out of an innocent man, The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the use of force was justified even though the man had done nothing wrong and the officers made a mistake. That is because when judging at officer’s actions, even when injuring an innocent person, it must be viewed through the eyes of a reasonable officer having to make their decisions with a facts known to them at that moment. In other words, what does a person with his training and in that same situation, usually do? It doesn’t matter using 20/20 hindsight and looking back on it with additional information. So, what do actors usually do? That is significant because using Texas law as an example. It is a crime to point a firearm at a person even if you believe the gun is unloaded and if there was no threat. Simply pointing a gun at someone is a crime, even if you were joking among friends (no matter how stupid).That means that you could probably go back and arrest every actor that has ever appointed a gun on a movie set. Under the law and under the rules taught of firearm safety, you could almost never make a movie with any kind of action sequence using firearms unless they were toys. Maybe it will change in the future. Maybe it needs to be or have better safety protocols put in place. It is against the law however (actually in the United States Constitution) to hold people responsible for something that was not a crime when it happened but was later made a law. It would be like a police officer writing you a speeding ticket for going 70 miles an hour in a 70 mile an hour zone but the speed limit was charged to 55 miles an hour six months later. I think people are wanting to hold Alec Baldwin responsible for what many popular actors have done but because his name is Alec Baldwin.1 point

Next Friday is snap shot day !!!

Those were the projections. The actual 5A-D1 ceiling is 2,211 and the floor is 1,920 with Houston Waltrip being the largest D2 school at 1,919. Taking into consideration the new schools and the natural growth in the metro areas I think the 5A-D2 cutoff will be somewhere around 1,980 before potential opt-ups which may move the number another 20-25 kids and be right around your 2,003 number.1 point -

Idk with LCM trying to take all their players, who knows. I’m just now realizing that WOS was built to emulate the Dallas Cowboys. Same colors, same concept, same players, same fans… it all makes sense to me now.1 point -
Many or maybe even a majority of prop guns are actual working firearms. The word prop just means used on a movie set. There are even items under Texas law that say that certain things are illegal… unless used for a dramatic interpretation. Basically if it’s a play or a movie, you could even have some illegal items. I have read it before several years ago but I read it again after this case, the death of Brandon Lee. There is a sequence of events that caused his death. Sometimes they use real bullets but hopefully modified by the “expert”. Like when you see a movie where a person is loading a gun, they want it to look like a real bullet. The expert supposedly makes dummy rounds and sometimes puts a primer in the pocket and the actual bullet in the shell casing but not the powder. Then they use the same real shell casing with powder but do not load the bullet and use some kind of wadding to hold the powder in. In the case of Brandon Lee they had a sequence where the gun was shown being loaded and they had a shell with a bullet and a primer but no powder. Unfortunately the actor pull the trigger and the primer was just enough to push the bullet slightly into the barrel. The expert then loaded an actual blank charge with a real shell casing and real primer and powder to make the flash to make it appear that the gun had been fired and when the trigger was pulled with a bullet stuck in the barrel that they did not know about, it was enough to shove the projectile out the barrel and kill Brandon Lee. There are other cases where they actually fire real bullets to break windows and such as that. Maybe they have gotten away from that in recent years but I don’t know. I am sure they will make changes after this tragedy just like they did after Brandon Lee’s death. Anytime they use firearms with real powder and special effects with real explosions, then such things might happen. The me it is like in the other industrial site with certain dangers. Look at the death of the actor Vic Morrow and two children while filming Twilight Zone: The Movie. The special effects explosions caused a helicopter in the scene to crash on top of them, killing them instantly. There are certainly people who are financially responsible but does it rise to the level of a crime? So much depends on the circumstances and the wording of the state law. I would assume that much of the cases go by the culpable mental state such as intentionally or knowingly or recklessly or criminal negligence.1 point

It is neither mind-boggling nor ridiculous. For one, monoclonal antibodies have been around for almost 50 years. Second, look at the people who are taking it. They are we in the group of people who have a fairly high mortality rate from Covid. People love to point out that Covid has maybe a 1% mortality however if you look at the people over 65 who are overweight and maybe even other comorbidities, the fatality rate is a lot higher. How many times have cancer patients been told, your life expectancy is 4 to 8 weeks but we have an experimental treatment that may or may not work. Do you want to try it? The treatment may not work and the treatment may even be fatal but regardless, in the next two months the price of that gonna be here anyway. What is the loss for trying that experimental treatment? For many people, monoclonal Infusion is in that arena. The first three or four days I had Covid I felt like I had a mild case of the flu. Then it turned worse and my blood oxygen for about 4 days stayed around 82-84%.. At one point when I stood up and got dizzy I laid down and took my oxygen and it was in the upper 70s. I probably should’ve been in the hospital however I got the monoclonal Infusion in Beaumont and within about 36 hours everything turned around dramatically. I am 65, about 40 pounds overweight and how high blood pressure. Considering my condition when I got the treatment, I think there is a very good chance I would’ve been in the hospital in serious or critical condition or not being here typing this right now. I don’t see how it is mind-boggling to not trust a new vaccine which has some severe reported side effects but then faced with a possible critical condition or death And opt for a treatment it might save your life. I know that by point I took the treatment, it was not because I was worried about the flu like symptoms. I still do not want the vaccine but I have high hopes for the Novavax that is hopefully coming out soon.1 point

Easy come, easy go. What we have built has been "Near the top" for 40 years. Carthage is now a beast that hasn't been seen here in texas, ever. But like I say, soon this to shall pass. I just dont see your coach staying for another 20 years and retiring as the undisputed GOAT in TX HS FB history. I can only hope that the tradition he is making will stand the test of time. The same can be said of our program as well. Makes me wonder how long it would take for the next highest win % team to over take us. Worst case scenario if we were to become the next La Marque. I need to do some arithmetic to figure than one out. To be continued...1 point -
