I get it!! I was once in your shoes. I was that person in the stands, loudly complaining about “bad officiating.” Now, with the rise of social media, it’s easier than ever to voice these criticisms online. I thought I could see every call better than the officials on the floor. Then someone said to me, “If you can do better, get in the game.” That challenge changed my life. Over 20 years ago, I became a basketball official, and what I’ve learned since then is eye-opening. Officiating is not just about making calls. It’s about managing the game, the players, the coaches, and yes, the fans. We face a new generation of student-athletes who have been raised in a culture where everyone gets a trophy and losing is almost taboo. We deal with fans who question our integrity and sometimes become outright hostile. I acknowledge that officials aren’t perfect; we have off days just like anyone else. However, the increasing hostility from fans is driving many to leave officiating. According to the National Federation of High School Associations, approximately 50,000 high school officials have left the profession since the 2018-19 season, with fan behavior being a significant factor. Here’s the reality: without officials, there is no game. So, instead of tearing down the people who make your games possible, here’s a suggestion: • Thank the officials for being part of the game. • Thank them for the countless hours they spend studying rules, mastering mechanics, and working to improve. • Thank them for their patience with privilege-minded athletes and overly aggressive fans. Next time you see an official, instead of criticizing, take a moment to say, “Thank you.” They’re out there to make the game happen, and trust me, it’s not as easy as it looks from the stands. If you think you can do better, take the challenge like I did. Get in the game. You might just discover how much it takes to blow that whistle.

NDN1982 is no more. Banned

I don’t like Gaetz one bit but trump won convincingly I think he owes it to his voters to fill MAGA to his cabinet .

Congrats PNG onto round 3. Turkey and playoff football

Tried to tell yall on film I said Dayton would whip them.

They should try opting down again.

!!:10/3/F

Next week's game will be much more interesting

I wonder what internet setup NDN press uses. The Huntsville live YouTube feeds don’t seem to have the same streaming issues, even when they are away.

PNG has their very own spidersal 😀😀

!!score: 0/42/2 Kaufman’s worse than Hallsville .

I woke up at 2:00am this morning, drank 2 cups of coffee and drive 2 miles to work. Then I remembered I had 2 dreams about BH’s sophomore #2 that has given teams fits this year… This game is LP’s to lose, but we will see a young BH team compete.

Gametime approaching. 7:30 pm in Rusk Texas. Will it be a historic year for the eagles or will it just be another area round exit? There are lots of possible outcomes. GS likes to run a read option type offense between QB #5 and RB #19. #3 out wide is also very dangerous though. He's a lengthy and athletic guy who might be the best wide out we've seen all year. The defense has good size in the front 7 and #5 and #3 are the anchors in the secondary.

It's called reading comprehension. I against abortion and capital punishment. It's way cheaper to just let a murderer rot in a cell to have them executed just to win the votes of bitter old white dudes who would never have the intestinal fortitude to work in a prison, much less flip the switch on a human.

We both made topics same time too

Why release the ethics report? You are a pedophile apologist and should probably be on some type of list. Straight up weirdo comment you just made, yikes

Heavy is correct…that’s a bad boy 99

He also doesn't realize the game is over

AMC is beating themselves

End of 3 !!:3/3/4

So you have deemed what peoples’ limitations are? I am pro life of innocent unborn children. I am pro death penalty for heinous murderers who have been convicted and appealed their verdict. There is no either/or to it.

!!:7/42/4

PNG backup offense took the entire first six minutes of the 3rd. Even with the interception, I love it.

Has to be bandwidth. But I am no computer guy.

Kaufman broadcast doesn’t seem to be having issues

Should be a running clock 2nd half…

!!:3/0/H

They didn’t have any problems last year at all. This year has been rough.

Works fine for me. But, in your case, you get what you don't pay for.

This is getting ugly Indians just stripped the ball away from Kaufman and scored another TD

Ha I know some that went to NHS will still root for PNG, but the only times I could bring myself to were when they played SOC. 😆

Now what? Four more years of TDS…..

His verdict was not overturned on evidence. The unethical prosecutor, whose decision itself was overturned, was allowed to stand. Here is an example. A guy crossed the street and commited jaywalking. A guy driving a car had to swerve to miss the guy who was jaywalking. After getting in an argument, the driver attempted to drive away and the guy who jaywalked shoots and kills him in basically a road rage incident. He was arrested for murder For political reasons, the prosecutor tells the jaywalker, if you plead guilty to the pedestrian traffic charge, we will drop the murder charge. Naturally, he agreed, knowing that he’s been given a gift for appearance. Another prosecutor came along and asked on appeal to reinstate the murder charges. An appeals court agreed saying that there is an ample evidence for such a charge. They went to trial and the prosecution was able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that murder was committed. In steps to state Supreme Court. While it is obvious that all of the evidence was valid and it’s obviously that the murder was proven beyond a reasonable doubt, because the special prosecutor allowed the murder suspect to plead guilty to a traffic ticket, he can’t be charged again for murder under double Jeopardy.

I know math and geography is hard for the UIL. Move District 10 to District 6. Longest travel for 1st round possible is 174 miles Move District 6 to District 8. Longest travel for 1st round possible is 206 miles Move District 8 to District 10. Longest travel for 1st round possible is 101 miles. Instead we get as it is now District 7 and 8 with 292 miles District 10 with 233 miles It is very obvious they cater to the Dallas area teams.

Jesus never forced anyone to follow it
