3rd qtr

I’m still a little confused why Duron was still in the game up 42-0, or 42-6, against a team your JV could beat anyway. Injuries can happen any time. But, that just seems a little foolish. He was in the game late last week also, and Angleton was up by 60. Sorry. Have to question the coaching decisions on some of that. LP kept Ruffin out for 2 games when he was a little dinged, and Simon’s carries have been kept down these last games. The passing game has been used more. Also, Berneathy has brought in subs early for 3 of the last 4 games. Crosby was the exception. Players getting valuable experience, and minimizing chances for injuries to starters as best as can be done. I wasn’t a fan of the alternating QB situation at first either. But, LP’s making it work, and they now have—basically—2 starting QB’s.

My thinking. There will be some new wrinkles LP can’t prepare for I’m sure. I was even wondering if he could pass at all. Neland (sp) is also a solid RB, and Angleton uses multiple. Their rush game is no slouch itself. Pretty sure LP was already thinking about using Smith also as DB or Safety, to shore up the defensive backfield. That’s what I would do if it was me. Maybe playing another RB where Ruffin could stay more focused on D. Rojas has played well. We’ll see.

I think LP was caught in the trap game last week against Crosby looking ahead to this game. Almost cost them. Coaches didn’t give out POTW kudos for the game. I think the boys probably got an earful. Of course, like Stepp said, to be looking ahead & still win against a quality team in Crosby showed something in itself. It was ugly though. Even the band was a little late. The whole night looked off. Not sure DCTF computer factors in injuries.

I haven’t heard that it won’t be streamed. It’s not the Victory+ GOTW. So, LPsportsNET should be covering it.

This may not age well pending some injury issues.

Neither team really looked good last night. I don’t know if they both decided to have turnover/penaltyitis/undisciplinitus or what the same game. Watched the game again. Crosby could do no wrong early. Best I’ve seen them play maybe all season. LP looked flat right off the bus, and didn’t really ever get any better. They made just enough plays to win. Ugly win. But—as they say—better than a pretty loss. Sometimes, these type games help the team refocus. Let’s hope that’s the case for both teams. I’d like to see 11-5A represent well in PO’s. Side note: Angleton fans are saying they lost their stellar QB (Duron) to a shoulder injury, and also their excellent receiver. Also hearing Iowa Colony lost their QB to shoulder injury. Hate to see injuries. At least LP & Crosby seemed to come away pretty much unscathed on the injury front. We can be thankful for that.

Saw comments on the DCTX app where QB Duron messed up his collar bone & Jackson an ACL? What the heck were they doing playing up 42-0? It’s not as if Kempner was gonna make a come back. Hate it for these kids. You never know when something can happen. But, this seems like taking an unnecessary chance. @purple reign

Dang it! I hope they’re not serious. Maybe just a precaution?

LP looked downright horrible tonight. Lucky to get out with a win. Not sure what the deal was. I’d say looking ahead to Angleton & taking Crosby for granted. But, that wouldn’t give credit that’s due to Crosby, and I think it’s a cop out anyway. On the positive side, they’ll definitely refocus this week. Every team usually has a week like this they have to fight through. Just looked like both teams happened to have it happen on the same night. Angleton really hasn’t played anyone yet all year. So, we’ll see. All 3 of us have had an easy time these last few games. This game may be just what the doctor ordered for Crosby & LP. Another good thing…I didn’t see any serious injuries.

Messy game. But, the Crosby kids played their butts off. Nice looking RB & WR. Defense played well. Both offenses looked pretty offensive a lot of the time from what I saw. How many TO’s between the 2 teams? Anybody know? Also, PF’s?

Hopefully both teams got this out of their systems! Coaches are gonna do some rear end chewing this week.

Didn’t see first half. But, game looks sloppy in this half.

Stupid penalty by the freshman after a great pass breakup.

Missed chip shot FG by LP

Strange game

That was a pretty 4th down pass!

Just now able to sit down & tune in. Looks like it’s been a darn good game!

La Porte JV 29-8 over Crosby. Many of the top young players for LP are already on Varsity. So, not sure what the lower levels really mean anyway.

LP JV 29-8.

Conservative libertarian here. Small government, federalism advocate. Socially more liberal as in if it doesn’t harm, it is your business. Well known I’m not a Trump voter. But, not a hater either. He’s about like all the rest. Wouldn’t have near the impact they do if we’d quit asking the government to do things they have no business involving themselves in. Some things he’s doing well. Some things not so much. Also, another good reason to drop interest rates. As far as your A/C’s, if it’s been 3 years since you replaced your capacitor/s, it’s time. Even if they haven’t failed yet, they’re probably drawing way too much to kick on unit, & it will hit your bill for at least 10%. They’re all made in China now, and only last a couple years at best. Just have a friend—or call someone—and have them check the amps being drawn if you don’t know how to safely.
