Correction. LP gets Hendrickson next. I was looking at PO chart wrong. My bad. 😬

You’re correct. I was looking at the chart wrong. LP gets Hendrickson.

La Porte takes Game 2 against Crosby 4-1, and sweeps the series. BH also swept College Station. LP vs BH is up next. Texas Coaches Poll had BH #1 in State and LP #6 last week. Last year, these two teams played one of the better series in the PO’s.

I own a small piece of UNP (Union Pacific). Another solid, leading indicator of growth. Check out their past year. Good divvies as well. Boring, but solid. My type of stock. My personal opinion is the economy is primed. People aren’t really dying because of gas or food prices. What’s killing folks is insurance of all types (medical, auto, home, flood), utilities, and property taxes. These are what’s hitting people so hard. It just makes everyone notice the smaller items more, and that leads to a general sense of financial insecurity. The grocery and gas bills seem really outsized because the insurance, utilities, and property taxes are jumping astronomically, and affecting people’s ability to even stay in their homes. Just my opinion.

That’s a big part—yes. They are also a major play for equipment required for building any type of facility. Where Big Cat goes, engineers, electricians, welders, instrument techs, HVAC, plumbers/fitters, millwrights, scaffold builders, and just about every construction craft you can think of soon follow. Good paying jobs. Caterpillar is a leading indicator. Not a current snapshot. Similar to rail. This is also good news for the American steel industry. Good jobs in that industry. Important to note that many of the jobs necessary to build out will also be required to maintain the facilities. So, there will be more than just short to mid-term construction jobs. There will be long-term maintenance jobs in the crafts/skills/trades. Ironically, jobs that advanced AI has to have to exist. Jobs that many with a wasted 4 year degree will wish they had not looked down on as beneath them.

One of the best indicators for growth that will help Main St.: Caterpillar The stock is on a tear, and is a construction/manufacturing/infrastructure bellwether.

How would you rank SETX Past State Championship Teams

La Porte went 51-0 between 1986-87 with the title at the highest classification when there weren’t split divisions watering down the field. Your statement is pretty bold. But, I love the pride shown. I’d be the same way. -

Not a MAGA person—or even a Trump voter—but, I assume they defend it the same way the Dems, Socialists, and Progressives defend applauding King Charles while attending ‘No Kings’ rallies.

Cool video. LP finished #6 in the nation by USA Today polling. -
Can we just create a thread where he can talk to himself? That should keep him busy fact-checking all his bs.
