  1. i hope so. biggest small school game of the year every year around here.
  2. i wholeheartedly disagree with this. moderates actually consider the issues and the politician's stances on said issues before making a decision, especially if you include the unaffiliated in this category, which most do now. the far right and far left eat whatever their party feeds them without a second thought. the only reason conservatives don't like moderates is because in the last few election cycles they have not been voting conservative.
  3. i don't think he's going get much credit for that on here. that being said, that's not the case. he's supported them in the past, until he decided he wanted the republican vote. i think it's more likely he'll toe whatever line he thinks he needs to toe in order to get votes, which makes him just like the politicians he criticizes for doing political things.
  4. While not what you intended, this is very accurate, as he is in fact fairly liberal, and has consistently portrayed himself as such up until the point where he decided it would be easier to win the nomination as a republican.
  5. i've been arguing with some of you guys for years about what republicans need to do in order to get back into the white house. many of you guys have insisted that the problem is that your candidates have not been conservative enough, while i've insisted they need to be even more moderate. well, if this doesn't answer that debate for you, i don't know what will. you have the ultra-conservative candidate you've wanted in the race, and he's being routinely beaten by a blowhard mouthpiece who has no experience and no plan. As an aside: For all of the many thousands of jabs you guys have taken at democrats on this site over the years for being low information voters... DONALD TRUMP IS WINNING REPUBLICAN STATE PRIMARIES. I guess those voters exist in large numbers on both sides of the aisle after all.`
  6. Well, seeing as someone on here reported he'd played his last game as a hawk, I'll take this as a good sign
  7. A little adversity is good for y'all, even though it'll still end up an easy win. It's been quite awhile since y'all have had any thanks to your district. Good to get at least a mental test before heading into some tougher games
  8. As a result of financial issues that occurred before the BOM was installed. BISD has the support of the president of the TEA.
  9. The commissioner of TEA just released a statement of support for the BISD board of managers. Also, the change of accreditation is a result of financial decencies that occurred before they took over. I'm just curious: do you feel that the growing amount of thieves that are being convicted for stealing millions of dollars from students and taxpayers is a good thing? Or should they have been allowed to continue stealing from the district? Because as far as I can tell, things have changed considerably since the BOM took over, with the biggest change being that high ranking employees are no longer using stolen BISD funds as a source of supplemental income.
  10. are they from FB Marshall, or Marshall, Tx? Roster says McKnight is from Marshall, Tx, which would explain how they got such a good player, as etbu is in Marshall. Not that it really matters, I'm just curious
  11. And before last year the last time they had a really good team was when they had the Isom twins back in the early 2000s
  12. I find it hard to believe that a lights out shooter who is a competent ball handler and plays good defense wouldn't be making a meaningful contribution for a D-3 team. I'm not saying he goes and is the best player and takes over some all-conference player's starting spot, but I find it hard to believe he isn't seeing the floor and making some sort of impact. But you know more about basketball on this level than me, and I'm not saying that sarcastically.
  13. You know what sounds even less plausible? 7 different college players CHOOSING to leave colleges that they're having success playing careers at to drop down a division or two to play on a DIII squad that averages a good season about every 7 or 8 years. And yes, i would absolutely assume that every year coaches have players that flop out and end up quitting/transferring. Some of those players don't fit in with the team, some fail out, some are dissatisfied with playing time, or maybe the school, or maybe the coaches, or maybe the town their college is in. Many of those players end up transferring to smaller schools. How many players on Lamar's football team (a middle of the road FCS team) came in from big name D-1 schools for many of those same reasons. I know i'm comparing different sports, but it's the same result on a smaller scale. As for questioning whether or not Bullock is good enough to make ETBU's roster, there's no question at all. Now whether ETBU knows about him, or knows enough about him to try and recruit him, or whether they look at his size and a little bit of tape and get scared off, i have no idea. But to even question whether the best player of an entire classification of basketball in the state of Texas is good enough to make a D-3 roster is ludicrous. Having not seen ETBU play this year i can still guarantee you he's good enough to not only make the team, but make a significant contribution, as he would without a doubt immediately become the best shooter on the team, as well as likely the most fundamentally sound.
  14. More likely a bunch of kids who weren't good enough to make it where they were before. I have no doubt he is good enough to make that roster, without even having seen ETBU play in a few seasons.
  15. i guess. a lot of schools around here beating a lot of kids over and over again in different sports, but i don't hear about too many of these incidents. this is at least 3 involving PNG soccer in 2 years.
  16. i didn't say they were the same. I'm just wondering why these types of incidents always seem to occur at PNG
  17. Ive heard some things from a couple of coaches, and I dealt with it when I played against them, too. But hey, according to the other png poster on here, we're just jealous . Seems like the new thing to do out there is to flood the field with cops after the game to make sure it doesn't backfire on them
