  1. Look at all the finance experts in SE Texas🤣 Someone mentioned cutting SS to pay for it. How about we stop forgiving student debt and wind down unemployment to 90 days and you're done. I have some college but never got my degree. I have never needed unemployment because I always found work.....and sometimes it was work I really hated......

  3. It's not hearsay boss, my opinion is being derived from the comments you have posted. Your son may not be the QB, but in truth, you don't really care who the QB is, you care that your son gets touches and is able to shine. It seems to be your opinion that the reason your son isn't getting touches is Peevey's fault because he will not "play the better passer", and you know he is the better passer because "your son is the one catching the passes". I'd bet a million dollars that your son is one of the ones in the locker room keeping the culture issues stirred up. How about teaching him to be a good teammate, be coachable, and worry about contributing to the success of the team rather than worrying about how many catches he gets. I'm sure it helps him tremendously that you are so openly biatching about his team and head football coach on a message board, contributing to the culture issues by keeping the QB argument stirred up. If anyone needs to butt out of anything, it's you.

  4. Well, it sure doesn’t take long before people forget what it was like before Peevey arrived. My son played 2 yrs for previous coach and 2 years for Peevey. It’s not even close. Peevey has changed everything for the better. Everything! let’s get to district and see what happens.

  5. I'd like to see the reduction of handouts as well. if you need medicaid, welfare, SNAP, WIC, etc., you better be putting in at least 30 hours a week at a job or have a legitimate disability or illness. And after a couple of kids, benefits should drop rather than increase with each subsequent kid. quit incentivizing having more children. being an unemployed single mother should not be a career option.

    LCM vs Iowa (LA)

    Friendly reminder that profanity should be avoided along with coach and kid bashing. Carry on... Did LCm culture finally kill Peevey's drive and vision? I doubt it. WOS is an open district though. Some even say we're trending upward in the long run. Just an option for any parents thinking they could do better... next year

  9. Hightower isn't an elite 6A rather more of a mid tier team in my opinion. That said they are usually pretty good and have talent at most of the skilled positions. This will no doubt be a test for the Titans.

  10. Bears are 0-2 and played two top 13 teams in the State. OMG, Rome is burning!!!!!!! yall need to chill out and try and enjoy yourselves. Fire Peevey? Do yall really think there are better options standing in line to get his job? He was the best candidate after a detailed search. The man puts in more hours than you can imagine into his program for basically peanut pay. If you divided his salary up into the hours worked, I guarantee you 75% of the people complaining make more an hour. my opinion is the he can only do so much with the talent he has. No one is a miracle worker. Maybe the kids need to focus more on football and less on social life if they want to win more games. If the kids want to have a good social life, then their parents need to just except mediocrity and a first round playoff exit. If these dads want to complain so much they need to grab a whistle and about 80 hours a week and see how good they can do with some of these spoiled, entitled kids.

  11. Crosby’s superintendent hiring Joe Willis is the problem. I was vehemently against it when we hired him because his approach to the game does not fit the personnel the Crosby community produces. There are a lot of people on this site who had no idea what they were talking about trying to correct me on that. If you get your butt kicked with multiple SEC kids on the roster then you have no shot with just BigXII and C-USA kids which he’s proven to be true. He runs a system that nullifies any athletic advantages we have at the skill positions. Instead he still takes the Cedar Park approach which relied heavily on being dominant at the line of scrimmage. That’s fine when you average 6’3” and 285lbs across the offensive line the way they did when Crosby played them in the semifinals, we don’t have that and never have. His system requires the kids to process a lot of information, especially on defense. This makes the kids play extremely slow and makes us look like “we don’t have the athletes we used to”. Willis calls plays and is terrible at it. With the system being bad I’m not sure it makes a lot of difference what he calls though? One example from last week is running the ball multiple times on 3rd and long yet choosing to call a pass play on 4th and inches which resulted in a goal line interception. He relies extremely heavily on his RB and now that Fontenot isn’t there to substitute in when we need a 3rd and short conversion his play calling looks even worse. I bet we already have close to 15 three and outs through the first two games. Practice is slow and boring and he doesn’t inject any excitement into the kids because he’s pretty low energy himself. As far as the staff my opinion is that there are only two real “football guys” on the sideline besides Willis. I think most of the guys he hired need a lot more seasoning. It’s just all around bad now, hopefully the superintendent makes a change after this year but her ego is so big that I’m not sure she will be willing to admit failure. Crosby's district isn’t very good so we might finish in 4th place at which time she may try to sell “improvement” to the interested parties and allow Willis to screw over another year of Crosby’s talent. Crosby may be 6A after next year, we need to get someone in here who has the ability to connect with our kids and the willingness to build a program.

  12. Oh, I was batting my eyes like crazy. The waste was astounding, and in many cases local governments are STILL trying to figure out how to spend all of the ARPA funds that were sent their way by Washington in response to COVID. My problem with entitlement spending is that in many cases it’s overdone. Why would a person decide to get a job and buy groceries, knowing they could never afford to eat as extravagantly as they do while abusing the SNAP, EBT, WIC, etc. Your solution is to say “well, pay them enough at McDonald’s so they can afford to eat lobster on week nights and they’ll get jobs.” Wrong… human nature is laziness and greed. If we went back to USDA programs that offered staples (bread, eggs, milk, cheese, peanut butter) instead of cards that can be used to purchase steaks, cokes, snack cakes, etc…. People would go get jobs. We incentivize laziness. If you get knocked up, Kamala will give you $6k for birth, then you get all of the other benefits, plus a bump in your EIC “refund” every spring. We encourage the least capable of supporting kids to have more kids. It’s bananas. We’re the only nation in history whose impoverished are uniformly obese.

  13. Trends are trends. Progressive tax rates produce healthier more equitable economies. When workers lose the ability to control their wages, the middle class suffers for the benefit of the few. Pay inequities now rival those of the Gilded Age and the Roaring Twenties.

  18. You would hope but I'm not really sure? I think both of his kid are juniors and he's from somewhere not too far from Crosby so taking this job was coming back closer to home for him. On the business side of it he may have more time left on his contact so if he doesn't retire Crosby's only option may be to reassign him? With him being reassigned and Crosby most likely having to retain the bulk of his assistants until he's fully out, I'm not sure the job would be as attractive as it normally is. Just a continuing domino effect of poor administrative management of the athletic department.

  26. As tough as our last two seasons were in Lufkin, we did beat these AMC kids both years when they were sophs and juniors. My personal belief is both AMC and Weiss are very good teams this year, not world beaters. Too many mistakes and TOs and special team flubs between two Top 10 teams. Just saying. AMC just stalled in 2nd half and Weiss tried to play Santa Claus with TOs in the 1st half. Lots of missed opportunities.

    I got to the homecoming pep rally early last night and saw numerous kids after practice doing punishment. I asked what they did and they told me they were out there because they had 15 yard penalties against Silsbee and others were there for grades. One of the kids doing punishment was a prominent starter. Just because you don't hear about taking care of the nonsense doesn't mean it isn't happening.
