I was talking with a trooper friend of mine the other night.  He was telling me they are going about once every 6 weeks down to the border.  The thing he told was in about a 15 mile stretch, in one 12 hour period they sent 185 illegals onto buses for transport back across.  He said that is not even one of the “hopping” spots on the border.

Here is the first round bracket:

Saturday, June 19

Game 1: 

Game 2: 

Sunday, June 20

Game 3: 

Game 4: 
 

What do you think?  Me personally, I will be pulling for Cheddar Dallas and the Vols, Texas or the NC State underdog Wolfpack.  Regardless, and my wife will be mad, but I will try to watch every game.

Football forum does it the day after the season ends - why not baseball?  The following teams ended up in the final season polls:

5A - #1 - Barbers Hill

        #17 - PN-G

4A - #9 - Orangefield

        #18 - HJ

        #23 - Livingston

3A - #11 - Woodville

        #22 - Buna

2A - #15 - Evadale, 

Private / Home-School - 

#2 Good Samaritan Hornets.

 

    So who has the hosses returning to carry them to Austin/ Round Rock next year? I know Woodville and Buna were relatively young and return a great nucleus.  Evadale returns a great group but lost some really good seniors.  Anyone not on the radar that should be?  There is always a team that surprises and has a great run.  I think of the Bobcats of Orangefield as a team that got hot and surprised a few people.  Silsbee has a great core group returning and they were very young this year.  The work for a state championship starts now boys - get busy.  As a parent it is the best trip you can take, I know I miss it.

He did, I was trying to find the video.  They had 3 web-gems and he was pumped - great.  But flex toward your own dugout, don’t poke a sleeping bear.  The next inning he got in trouble, got pulled, bases loaded and a grand slam to win it.

Man I was really pulling for DBU to get their first CWS appearance, and that was a great game!!!  I think when the DBU pitcher flexed after that inning toward Virginia that turned the momentum.

Kopps pitched a great game, and was pretty emotional in the dugout.  Hogs had a great season, and this one will sting for awhile.

My Canadian Liberal wife stopped reading that propaganda paper after being a subscriber for 5 years. Need I say more about your link ?

That’s just the one link I clicked on from Google; not an ardent reader on that site.

Anything on the DBU - UV game?  I know it was in a weather delay.  I’m stuck at work, and trying to keep up.

Thought this was interesting:

I stand behind yoga pants!

Really enjoyed watching the WCWS.  Even though I detest Oklahoma, you gotta hand it to ‘em.  Scrappy group of athletes!  Was nice to watch sports and escape the stressors of life.

I can see the commercials now in 5-10 years, “If you took the C-19 vaccine, in any of it’s variants, you may be entitled to financial compensation.  Call 1-800-UBE-NHAD”.

My postings may be erratic.  I sometimes try to think of something profound, but can’t.  Then a couple come along, like today.  Was reading an old post I kept on S. Print of a Bible quote from 2nd Timothy Ch 4 vs 3 & 4.  I’m using the St Joseph, but it’s virtually the same in King James.  

I became Catholic about 50 years ago.  Once had a Catholic Priest preach, “The main thing is to be a good Christian.  If there’s something in Catholicism that’s a barrier to you being a good Christian, you might consider becoming a Baptist or Methodist (some old parishioners dropped their teeth, lol).  Personally, I thought it the most Christian thing I’d ever heard anyone say.  At that time, “new” non-denominational Churches were almost unheard of.  Now they’re everywhere.  I’m sure some may be fine, but I wonder about others, which brings me back to this Bible quote:

3- The time is sure to come when people will not accept sound teaching, but their ears will be itching for anything new and they will collect themselves a whole series of teachers according to their own taste.

4- And then they will shut their ears to the truth and will turn to myths.

Point is, if for whatever reason your Church is blocking you from being a good Christian, be careful you don’t pick a Church that leads you astray.

Amen!!!!!

To each his own.  I think you want me to debate you and become open to the ways of the world.  I’m not sure which characteristics you say I lack, but I am okay with who I am.  I sin daily, am convicted and do what I can to be the best Christian I can be.  I serve a risen Savior and wish you nothing but the best.  I believe the topic was Critical Race Theory, and I do not agree with it.  Hopefully that gets things back on track.

Bad idea... I had a brother in law that was home-schooled and I wouldn't let the kids sit in his lap.  Dude was an emotional cripple.  

You can go all of the way back to ancient Greece when people really started to "think." There was an open exchange of ideas and higher learning was achieved.  You have the exact opposite today... Far left ideologies are crammed down school kids' throats and anybody has a differing point of view is silenced.  It gets worse at the college level.  By the same token, if you take a kid and stick him in a church school or home school him, he'll end up with an ultra-orthodox view of everything and have no concept of how the rest of the world thinks.  It's just as dumb in reverse. 

Your opinion.  We home-schooled our three boys and all three are contributing members of society.  I appreciate your perspective but I strongly disagree.  The right to educate our children in the way we see fit is our right.  There is nothing wrong with a Christ-based education.

Home-school your kids.  Between the agendas being pushed and the propaganda being spewed teaching your kids is a great option.  

I didn’t think they drove trucks in that part of the country.  If she had said “tiny flags on Prius antennas” I might have believed her.  

Some good Supers lining up.  Man I love this time of year.

I would be curious to know how many of our youngsters know what happened on this date.  The greatest generation earned their title and paid dearly for the right to be free.  I doubt we have too many (if any) who served during that time on our message board, but I bet we all know or have someone in our family who served.  Thank-you for the sacrifices that were made that day and all of our WWII vets.  God bless America!!!!

Hard not to root for the underdog - JMU.  They just tied it up 3 a piece with a 3 run bomb.

This is a replay - sorry.

Central Connecticut just took a 3-2 lead over LSU in the 2nd and still batting.

He got to play there too, and in my opinion - NOTHING beats Blue Bell Park.  It just has that old times baseball vibe with all the amenities you could ask for.  TCU is kind of in a bowl and is hot, Texas is right by the highway as is U of H, Texas Tech is really nice as is Baylor and Rice.

Did he ever have it in the first place?   The “pandemic” accomplished what the Democrats hoped for.
