National Review is about as conservative as they get. Interesting you would readily believe that Swalwell’s acquaintance Fang Fang was a proven Chinese spy, while denying that anyone in Trump’s orbit may have similar risks.

Early Massey predictions have all 9-5A teams losing this week. LP and PAM by a score or less. GCM & BU by multiple scores. They typically adjust during the week. So, we’ll see what they say mid week.

Very true. Like I said, I'm still rooting for y'all. LP will have their hands full with CS. Good club. With Randle out, y’all actually have the easier path. LP will probably have to go through Top Ten state-ranked CS & Angleton.

You don't want them watching the whole game. If they did, they'd see that PAM had 3 explosive plays and a return for a TD all in the first half, and still only led 27-24. PAM was shutout in the 2nd half. In fact, PAM didn't have a sustained drive down the field once the entire game. PAM had more punts than scores. LP racked up over 625 yards of offense with 150 & 1 TD through the air, and only punted 2x all game. The score was indicative of the game. That being said, I'm still rooting for y'all over Weiss. I just think it's gonna be really tough.

I would say this is worse. [Hidden Content]

Remember, LP had them down 35-14 at half last year before the epic collapse. So, they can be held down. But, they'll stack the box against y'all big time and dare you to pass. Y'all are gonna need some TO's.

Good showing by all 9-5A teams. But, let's face it. The competition level wasn't great. The real tests begin this week. Good Luck to all!

Not sure they ever should have been the favorite in the region anyway. They had LP's old disease. One dimensionitis.

I just don't know if y'all have enough O to pull it out. Weiss is gonna score. No doubt about that. Can y'all keep up is the question. I think you and I both had Weiss as a serious state contender in the preseason predictions. Good Luck, and rep 9-5A. Show the experts we're not just an afterthought.

Early 3rd LP vs College Station Fri Nov 20, Tomball

Was always going to take more than just LWC. With ailing QB, Randle was going in limping.

CS just beat FWD 24-21 with a late TD & INT to end the game.

College Station will take the win 24-21. Will face La Porte next.

CS just got an INT on FWD 34 yard line. About 2 minutes left.

CS just took the lead back 24-21 with 3:00 left.

Friendswood just took the lead on a long TD pass midway thru 4th 21-17

11-5A may be gone tonight. NVM. Angleton held on for the win 17-10

Friendswood misses 28 yard FG. About 10:00 left in 4th CS 17 FWD 14

College Station 17 Friendswood 14 3Q FWD has no running game. Remind me of BU.

College Station 10 Friendswood 7 0:49 1st Half

Different person, but Lutnick should have been gone long ago when the Epstein connection was uncovered. He's also the brains behind some of the private company buy-ins by the government. Apparently, Bessent tried to tell Trump. He didn't listen. Now, we may have national security issues because of Nvidia & Lutnick. smh

The percent taxed is the same. But, higher earners will obviously have more left after said taxes. There are plusses and minuses to all tax structures. But, with a flat tax, those more well off would at least have to pay, instead of using the loopholes available now. Revenue would actually rise which would help some of our welfare programs more than the current system. But, achievement wouldn't be discouraged via taxation. I would also think corruption/cheating would be minimized. Add on top of that the savings by streamlining the need for the IRS, and there's multiple positives. The trick would be finding a rate that wouldn't punish lower income folks. Obviously, if you have a 5% flat tax, and you're only making $50k, it's a lot different than 5% if you're making $150k. But, it's the fairest way to tax IMHO.

Looks like the D will be getting some young studs coming up through the ranks as well again. I saw where they scored 299 & only gave up 66 to go with that 9-0 record. As far as Northbrook, I enjoyed watching the triple option again. I can see how--if teams are used to the modern, spread offenses of today--the triple option could give them issues. Old school, assignment defense required.

They pulled everyone way early. But, I know he reached his 2,000 again. Yes. A slew of young men got to play that I’ve never seen before. Whoever #27 is that played QB last has a pretty good arm. I need to check roster. There was a #18 WR that made an NFL legal catch on a good ball late as well.
