  1. I was all for waiting it out with strong and giving him every opportunity, but this season hasn't been mediocre enough to justify it. This was an aweful loss.
  2. El campo is 2 hours one way and Henderson is 3 hours the other. I'm not surprised there aren't many fans of either team that's active on this particular website
  3. that's the funniest thing I've read on here in a long time. they were fine with God allowing people to murder innocent cops, and they were fine with God allowing thousands of inner city teens to kill each other each year, and they were fine with God allowing people to use social injustices (both real and imagined) as an excuse to rob, steal, and kill, but they have a problem with God "allowing" Trump to be elected. If they truly were Christians as they claimed, they're the most hypocritical and wishy washy Christians I've ever heard of, and growing up in the church I've been around plenty of hypocritical and wishy washy Christians.
  4. I think I've pretty clearly stated why I take exception to it.
  5. I've heard about a few of these incidents, and for the most part they sounded unbelievable, like something that had been made up to justify the hatred of trump and trump voters. This incident in particular rubbed the wrong way and sounded false. I'm glad to know that they figured out the truth, and also that she's been charged for her lies.
  6. not at all. but when voting for a NATIONAL office, a national vote is in order, not a vote that is determined in any way by the amount of people in a state. Just like when we vote for governor... should we start delegating votes based on the size of counties? Should the counties around Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and El Paso be enough to elect democratic governors every year? Hardin county gets two votes, but Dallas County gets 40. And regardless of the breakdown of the voters in each county, all votes go to the winner of the county. It doesn't make any more sense here than it does nationally.
  7. this is truly unfair. it dilutes the individual voter's vote even further. 80,000 conservatives in Montana should not be able to cancel out 4,000,000 libs in California (I made those numbers up, but you get the point), just as the reverse that the district of Columbia should not cancel out the millions of conservatives in texas
  8. There's no reason those several states should be MORE relevant in today's system than the big four. That being said, if you make every individual vote count to the total, all states become irrelevant, as they should in the process of electing a president. The president should be picked by all voting citizens of the country, rather than the handful of swing states.
  9. you and I don't always agree, but you nailed this one.
  10. I'm not a fan of the electoral college. I'd prefer for everyone's vote to count and whichever candidate gets the most votes to win the election. Considering that less than 10 states truly decide the election, that means that in over 40 states an individual pretty much knows their vote counts for nothing. That being said, in this system, the overall vote count for the election is irrelevant. Hillary may have won the popular vote, but there's no way to factor how many people didn't vote (on either side) because they lived somewhere like texas or California where the nominee was chosen before early voting had finished. Trump probably gets an extra half-million votes in Texas, and Hillary and extra half-million in California if the voters in those states could cast votes that actually counted for an overall tally.
  11. must be how Obama got that second term. there's never been a president who worked so hard to divide the country.
  12. posted at the same time... I guess we're in agreement
  13. I don't think 3rd round is out of the question, although lorena is a better team than probably 7 of y'alls 8 wins. If you get to the 3rd then Giddings is going to be the favorite. I do see how you're getting your yards totals, though.
  14. I didn't see an animal, but I've been reduced to hunting my uncle's 40 acres in Nome this year. there are a few deer out there, but it's going to take a lot of time in the stand and a little luck for me to take an animal this year. I have been killing hogs in my backyard pretty regularly out in Fannett, but I rarely see deer there.
  15. yall got an easy matchup in the 1st round, but Lorena is probably a better team than any win on Liberty's schedule, so I wouldn't start looking that far ahead just yet. and if you beat Lorena, you'll likely get Giddings, not HJ in the 3rd round, which should be all she wrote for the panthers.
  16. you think they've gone 1-2 the last 3 games because he's out, or because they had to play their 2nd and 3rd games of the season against teams with winning records the last two weeks. I have a theory...
  17. how far are you thinking liberty is going to go? this seems a bit optimistic to me, unless you're predicting 400 yds against Madisonville.
  18. Only 3 of us picked them, but one of the three is from anahuac, so he doesn't count
  19. when you have a big guy in pads and a helmet come and grab you it kinda hurts, even if he's just playing around. lots of hard edges digging into you. It was always going to be a flag.
