  1. Patrick is his older brother. Started at nose guard for Texas A&M. He was '6"2 290. Held all the power lifting records at Silsbee until his "little" brother came along and smashed them.

  3. After the success that we had in 2016, there was a really big turnout for 2017. That campaign ended up 1-7 or something like that (unbelievable string of injuries and a lot of talent had graduated) and by the following year turnout for the team was abysmal. The problem is that kids have a much better chance of being successful by playing baseball and participating in football (especially on a losing squad) can cause a kid to miss out on baseball season and just erases all motivation. You'll definitely get more kids to turn out if you're winning, but not necessarily the kids who have a chance to play baseball on the next level. It also comes down to kids playing LL, select, and having private coaches for baseball, but nobody is putting the effort into honing their kid's QB skills at the same age group. I don't know what the answer actually is.

  4. Visualize, if you can, an Easter Bunny trying to direct President Trump around like that? I suspect Donald would’ve punched him in the nose. We don’t have a President, we have a puppet.

    How’s BLM Doing ?

    Once again, as happens so often when discussing the Left, the word unbelievable comes up. We’ve used it and used it until it’s real meaning has been diluted. There’s no limit to their insanity. And evidently they’ve never studied history. Smdh

    NBA Playoffs 2022

    Huge performances from Kleber and Brunson. Love seeing them play so well considering their past playoff struggles. The open 3s will be there all series for the Mavs as long as the Jazz's perimeter defense lets every ballhandler blow by them and force Gobert to help at the rim.

  15. Keep trying. As Hippy pointed out, those traffic back ups on Cardinal and Eastex areas haven’t been happening for very long. Maybe those women just got jobs and cars in the last 15 years? I grew up in a fairly poor family and my mother had a car and job as did my grandmother going back into the 1960s. I don’t think we were an anomaly.

  16. Orange County has gone from 83k to 85k since 1980. Hatdin County has increased 15k since 1980 but only 1,590 people since 2010. The 3 counties that might directly have an effect on traffic, have increased only about 4,000 people in the last decade.

  17. Looking at Wikipedia, Jefferson County had 245k people in 1960. Now it’s around 252k, more than 60 years later.

  18. You are correct. This traffic has not been going on for 40 years. I believe that it is entirely a response to the massive energy sector projects we have going on in the area. For the first 20 years of my career, we would post off-duty jobs on a bulletin board and we were restricted to shift or assignment because there was so little to do to make extra money that we had to struggle to find off duty jobs. We don’t even post jobs on a bulletin board anymore. We have had area projects where we had to hire over 100 off-duty police officers in a single day to work traffic. My police department with almost 130 officers could not even come close to getting enough officers to work those jobs. We went to outside agencies, even from other counties to help us with traffic. I believe you’re correct that this problem has not been here for that long. Maybe for the last 10 to 15 years but certainly not 40 and 50 years ago and the population has not really increased.

    Setx Super Gold Team

    By the way, for all who are anti-"everyone gets a ribbon" (i.e., the all district teams now), this is the team for you. It has been, and continues to be, the elite list to make in Southeast Texas. 5 on first team, 5 on second team. And way more often than not, Matt Faye and crew nail it.

    Political Memes

    A quote by Thomas Sowell, a black American economist, historian and social theorist. Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the powers of our enemies, but by the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching our children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating artificial stupidity.

  27. My favorite was after their playoff loss to Silsbee a couple of years ago. Reporter asked his thoughts on the loss, he replied "Well we have been dogs chasing cars all season and tonight we finally caught one."
