Reason is a solid news and opinion magazine. Very trustworthy source. But, it will equally offend Dems and Reps on occasion. It’s a Libertarian publication that’s been around a long time. I recommend more people read it for a different viewpoint.

Looks like a reunion of the 2008-2011 rivalry. Roberts was a PAM player, and Berneathy was LP’s OL coach. Is Morgan retiring voluntarily?

Peyton Smith's offers have increased since I last checked. Congrats young man. [Hidden Content] Sean Simon has a couple new offers. [Hidden Content] Ryker Reynolds [Hidden Content] Caden Watson [Hidden Content]

Looks like they’re trying to get a new stadium also. Kudos to them. They need one. Renderings look nice. Sounds like they’re doing similar to La Porte. Demo & build new on same land with 8500 seating. La Porte holds a little more with film deck and observation deck on the Legacy Building. But, stated seating is the same.

Haven’t seen listed yet, but it looks like Lufkin has: Week 1 - Longview Week 2 - Nacadoches Both say at Abe. Looks like Lufkin’s first 4 games are at Abe.

Personally, I think y'all are all too invested in this, and the ending you get will never satisfy.

Tep - 9-5AD1…PAM vs LP…taking aluminum bats to each other…😂

Sean Simon - 2025 MaxPreps Sophomore All America Second Team RB [Hidden Content] Simon (RB), Peyton Smith (WR), and Josh Wells (QB) are all Class of ‘28.

I was wrong. I missed the LP win in 2012. LP leads all-time 8-7. But, y’all have won the more recent games. LP won in 2014. Then, we played on and off during LP’s coaching changes, and y’all have won 5 in a row. It’s been a series of streaks with 7 point or less games in the middle. After y’all’s first win in 2011, LP won by 4 in 2012. Y’all won by 2 in 2013. LP won by 6 in 2014. Y’all won by 6 in 2015. The other games have been wider margin wins by both teams. LP has never played Lufkin or New Caney. But, they have a winning record against every other 9-5A team. The LP/PAM series is the closest.

It was still a nice little blurb. Got me excited already. lol I looked back through the records to get our 7-7. (I thought it was 8-8.) Overall against Port Arthur teams, La Porte has the edge. But, against PAM only, this will be the tiebreak year. Y’all took advantage of the LP down years between LaReau and Berneathy to catch up.

DCTX is predicting 12-5A as the toughest 5A district in the state. I'm not sold. Yes, they have 4 solid teams with Georgetown being added. But, I don't think the College Station teams are better than Randle, IC, or even Angleton. Typical 6A teams dropping to 5AD1 isn't that big of a change. The Eagles have been hot & cold. Unknown to me.

DCTX has a good article about the best renewed/new rivalries after realignment. LP vs PAM is one of the Top 10. [Hidden Content]

Ranking Region 3 5AD1 districts right now, I'd have to say: 11-5A 12-5A 9-5A 10-5A But, I don't think the gap between 11-5A & 9-5A is as big as some may think. I put 12-5A ahead of 9-5A because of Weiss. But, 9-5A may actually have more depth. The BISD schools are the wildcards on the total depth of 9-5A.

When someone asks why so many support Trump, or other less than stellar Republican candidates, it might be because they see a massive shift away from America's founding principles within the Democratic Party. They may be willing to look past some ugliness to protect what they see as the bigger picture. RADICAL LEFT TAKEOVER: Sanders-AOC Ally Scores UPSET Victory as Democrats Lurch Further Left [Hidden Content] Supporters say the wins — marking the first time a democratic socialist has been elected to public office in New Jersey in over a century — represent more than a moment. They signal a trend. And many in the movement, which rejects capitalism in favor of community ownership, have their eyes set on higher office. (I love how they wordsmith communism with 'community ownership.') [Hidden Content]

If not a doctored video, pretty good gotcha' moment. lol Although, if the voting machines or data are manipulated, does a photo ID/voter ID really matter?
