I know they lost a couple of the best skills players they've had in a long time... I don't follow lumberton enough to make a super educated statement on this, but their QB that graduated has to be amongst the best to have ever gone through there.

Not down, realistic. They’re better than they used to be, but lost some important pieces. They may struggle before district, but the district itself is real bad. I get it that west Brook went 0-10 and Nederland 4-7, but playing up is always tough. I’m thinking 5-5 or 6-4 on the season, and a shot of making it to the second round assuming they finish 1st or 2nd in district. Maybe they win one of the first 3 and have a shot at 7-3. I think it’ll be a decent year for them. Probably not as good as the last couple of years, but better than they’ve historically been. And I did mention that there’s been a change in mentality out that way.

Trump is (correctly) criticized by the left for misleading statements and lies. Not sure why it doesn’t work the other way, especially since a lot of his lies were used to get into office to begin with

I don't see them being great. Lost some really good players, a fantastic QB, a great RB, and at least 23 seniors, if Maxpreps is correct. They really weren't much better than decent last year, but had the advantage of playing in a really bad district. The thing is, they're playing in a bad district again, so they can be okay and have a decent season. I don't disagree with raidergirl that there's been a change in attitude over there. used to be that even in this district the raiders would be one of the teams getting beat up on. I expect them to most likely go 0-3 before district, but could easily go 6-1 or 5-2 in district. y'all just don't overreact if they start cranking off district wins. BC, HH, HJ, Liberty, and Livingston combined for 8 wins total last year.

Man, I reaaaaally don't think she's losing. Maybe some of her polling numbers got a little inflated with the buzz around her getting the nod, and will drop a little. But the Donald appears to be getting desperate. One of the things I'd noticed was that a few months back he seemed to be calming down a little, not making as many outlandish statements, tamping down on the insults. It was working for him, too. But now he feels it slipping away, and he's doing and saying crazy stuff again. It may get his disciples fired up, but it's not gonna help him with the votes he's going to need to win. I guess we'll see. Your guy on X is right about one thing: she's a weak candidate. My prediction is that Harris wins this election, does a poor to mediocre job, and the next election the republicans take the white house back, IF we nominate anyone halfway electable. So help me, if Trump loses again and these dipsticks spend four years whining about stolen elections and then nominate him again for 2028, i'm done with the party. This year should've been the easiest republican win since Reagan in 84, but we found a way to possibly screw it up.

what stopped them from playing PNG again this year? was looking forward to that one, but still am glad to see PNG play shadow creek early.

Honestly, I think one thing the left has been doing better than the right the last several years is adjusting to their voters. There was a push there for awhile to go ultraleft, but now many on the left are revolting against it, and the dems have made a lot of moves to get back a little more central. We'll see, but the left, as nuts as a lot of them are, have been a lot better at reading the room lately than the right (which is why we're in this situation).

Don't really follow them, but surprised to see that about Foster. they were dang good for several years not too long ago. 3+ rounds deep every year for awhile.

Did W have a history of lying about it during elections?

I mean, me too. But hopefully she's smart enough to see the connection.

It's a shame this won't move the needle more, but there's so much baggage already floating around this is small potatoes.

Tim Walz’s 2006 campaign falsely described details about his arrest for drunk driving in 1995 (msn.com)

he was... that'll change some. they may understand "drill baby drill", but they dang sure understand "fire them for striking".

Harris has gone more central on a lot of policy recently. I'm hoping she learns from the success it brings her and sticks with it if/when she becomes president. I don't want a dem in office, but I'd sure rather have one pushing moderate policy than one pushing woke insanity. Kinda funny to see all of the criticism over it from the right... politicians altering their stances to appease their constituents and saying and doing what they need to do to get elected has how it's always worked until Trump came along. Trump had every opportunity to exactly this and win this election.

UAW files federal labor charges against Donald Trump and Elon Musk after threatening workers on X interview | CNN Business

During a Monday X (formerly Twitter) conversation with Elon Musk, the former president praised Musk for his anti-union stances and for firing people who go on strike. The comment came weeks after Sean O'Brien, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, spoke at the Republican National Convention. In response to the interview, O'Brien told Politico that firing workers for organizing or striking is "economic terrorism." This is coming from a dude that just spoke at the republican convention, not some liberal goofball who was never voting for Trump anyway. Alienating 10% of the voting pool months before the election... savvy move.

using fuzzy trump math to make these claims... not you, but Trump and Musk. from an article on Fox "The message followed a previous post outlining that, "Between 7:47 PM and 10:47 PM ET, President Donald Trump's Space post received 73 million views. During the same period, there were 4 million posts about Elon Musk and President Trump's conversation on 𝕏, generating a total of 998 million views." Like they're legitimately counting views of other people talking about their talk in their tally.

Kamala Harris Now Leads Donald Trump in Six Different Polling Averages - Newsweek We can all take great solace in knowing that the swing voters are stupid, at least.

The incoming junior QB for state ranked Melissa started the last two seasons at Hoover.

HF has: LCM Hitchcock Vidor Almeta Crawford Stafford i expect them to be 5-0 or 4-1. Hitchcock should be a pretty good test, even though they’re down a division. LCM and Vidor should be good indicators of whether the experts have it right with their predictions that HF will win district this year. If HF is truly good enough to run the table with against Silsbee, Jasper, and WOS, I’d expect them to win these two fairly comfortably. If they end up being tight games, the horns may not be as far ahead of the rest of their district as some folks think.

The PA one is interesting. Road rage, female shooter killed a male from another car, who also reportedly fired shots. She turned herself in afterward. Would love to hear the details on that one

It'll never happen. For a significant section of the right that goes against their, I don't know what to call it to be honest. I've made this point many times on multiple forums, as I know you have as well, and it always comes down to this rebuttal: the blame lies with those who refuse to vote for Trump rather than those who refused to nominate an electable candidate. We'll see what happens in this election, but if Trump loses we can look forward to 4 more years of hearing how stupid the swing voters are, and how righteous the Trump supporters are.
