On Friday, an elementary school teacher poses her students a challenge.... "If you can tell me who said the following quote, they don't have to come to school on Monday: 'We have nothing to fear, but fear itself'" A hand shoots up and little Billy Tran says "Franklin Delano Roosevelt". "Correct, Billy. You can have next Monday off" the teacher replies. "I'm Vietnamese, we value education I'll be here Monday". "Ok" says the teacher "Lets try another one: 'Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.'" This time the hand of little Susie Hou rises. "Abraham Lincoln" "Correct Susie." the teacher asserts "Enjoy your day off" Susie says "Oh no ma'am. I'm Chinese, we also value education I'll be here early on Monday morning". "F#%€ing immigrants!" a voice says from the back. "Who said that?!" the teacher snaps. "Donald Trump..." says little Johnny "...I'll see ya Tuesday" Sorry, almost put this on the joke the thread in the Locker Room but thought it was funny enough to warrant its own thread...

He has a young team and a major rebuilding project going on. He might not have thought taking some major lumps against Silsbee early in the season would be beneficial to his team. But that's a guess and far be it from me to question a Hall of Famer and what he is trying to do with the program he just took over .

The delusion seems to never end in collie station...

Depends on what sport. Football, advantage Britt. Baseball and basketball, advantage Pat (although he was an all state QB himself at Lindale in the late 80s, matter of fact, he was all state in all 3).

I'm not complaining about LCM. Most of the WOS kids that switched over there are because their parents moved north of the interstate which is their absolute right. Besides those already mentioned, Katon Brown started out in WOCISD

But what an idiot. I think Tech should let him thru unabated and let Patrick drill him in the jewels a la The Longest Yard.

He's the one with the hottest mom in CFB [Hidden Content]

This may the most ill-informed post I have seen in a while and that's saying something because they are all over the place every day. In fact, if you were trying to state the exact opposite of the truth, you did a better job. Fact is, as anyone with ANY knowledge of Orange is aware, WOS's numbers continue to plummet. Every year, they lose kids rob surrounding districts (LCM most notably recently), if not to the Houston area (Sterling-Cole, Baldwin). The only "recruiting" that may be going on would be trying to keep what they have from moving off...

I'm just busting beans. There's a glaring issue or two with it IMO but I don't want to overtly criticize any particular coach.

Ok ok. The Funky Fifteen it is...

Absolutely. I would actually put PAM 2 and it's a toss up at this point for me between Central and Nederland for the 3rd and 4th spots.

Just an FYI, I think these are the correct totals after week 9 (going into last Friday's games).

After week 8, Ump had 166 wins and the same thing In last week's totals. Englebert had 164 after week 8 and only 160 last week. I had 159 after week 8 and only 156 last week. Didn't notice it until Friday though which was a crazy time. So what happened was the week 9 results were inadvertently added to the week 7 year to dates instead of week 8. These look right to me ryker. Here are the year to date threads for the previous 2 weeks so you guys can see what I'm talking about:

Last week's were wrong. The week 9 results were added to the week 7 totals. You were at 187 and he was at 183. I noticed when I had less wins last week than the week before.

No question and he has "sired" two of the better HCs in this area in Dubois and Smalley. Coaching trees often speak to how good a coach is. And there are only a couple I would put ahead of Dubois period.

Watch out Ump. That shifty Englebert is nipping at your heels!

That is a dang good list. I will just praise yours instead of criticizing Soulja's Mine would be a bit different 2-5 (in a different order) but yours has the right players on it IMO.

Did they march on A&M's campus when your students were yelling the N word at those visiting high schoolers last year? Yeah, they won't be at Texas either. Of course, they may not even know who a Texas A&M is to be fair...

It was a good win and he's actually come up with several of those during his 3 years. The problem has been winning the games you should win. I fully expect us to lose a couple more (including likely this weekend). He wins out he's fine. I just can't see that happening in any universe.

Lmao!

Heard the same thing from the Hare Krishna's at the airport...

How pissed would you be if you had the over 75?

I literally almost choked. One of the funniest posts I have read in a while.

He's actually correct. Most aggie fans are alumni or have some close affiliation. I know that to be true because most everyone else thinks they are a bunch of goofballs...

I'm convinced they are obsessed with the tshirt fan thing because so many of them couldn't get in to The University of Texas and had to settle for Tamu. Look for it to get even worse now that they are trying to become the Arizona State of the south; you know, to help pay for stadium expansions and ill-advised coaching extensions....
