    Actually?  

     

    Everybody who wants a job has one.  Prices are up, but everybody has gotten raises except for people on fixed incomes, and the Rs are the ones holding that up.  I know three people who have bought homes in the last two weeks.  The car dealerships are stocked up again.  There aren't any grocery shortages or lockdowns.  We aren't in any wars.  There haven't been any riots since 1/6.  

     

    We're going to elect a democrat president in 2024 because all the Rs have to offer is Trump and a promise of more dysfunction. 

    The first part of that sentence may very well be true. The second part of that sentence isn’t true at all.  I may very well get an “I told you so” in 18 mos or so and I will be fine with that.  But I fear it will be me saying it and getting a “this election was rigged too” as a response.

    Just reassured his re-election!  

    This indictment is so stupid and you know I’m not much of a trump fan.  It is a waste of and the enormous tax dollars in NY.  However, I also know that there’s a ton of folks like you who are unwittingly trying to ensure another 4 years of Biden.  If you can’t figure out why on your own, finding Nederland a football coach is the least of your worries.  There IS a candidate that would be incredibly difficult for someone on the left to beat but Trump’s ego won’t let him step aside for the good of the country.  Because as much as he claims to love America, there is nothing or no one that the orange man loves more than himself.

    An advantage of a Final 4 without bluebloods is that tickets are extremely cheap. I was able to get club seats for Saturday's semifinals for less than $200, which is fantastic considering one ticket gets you into both games. I don't have a dog in the fight but I figured this would be too neat of an experience and too cheap to pass up, especially since its less than a 2 hour drive from my house. 

    I was so thankful I didn’t buy tickets before Sunday’s games.  I can’t imagine how far they dropped when Texas lost.

    Politics is what UT does best when it comes to making big decisions. I agree that they should absolutely give Terry a long term contract though. 

    I don’t know about long term.  Given his history and the debacle with Adams at Tech, I would give him a 2 year $5.5 to 6m deal with the understanding if he keeps it rolling, the next one will be $30m for 6

    And as far as Kountze and Silsbee playing again… highly doubt that happens anytime soon… the talent gap is a pretty decent margin between the two programs.


    True.  But I remember when those games were always highly anticipated, almost to the extent of HJ/Silsbee.  As stated before, as much as I mess with you Lions, I really hope to see a continued rise for Kountze basketball.  Historically, has to be top-5ish in SETX.  Much like football not being as good when WOS is irrelevant, and for with Kountze and hoops.

    I have just about given up on basketball. They don’t enforce the two most basic rules of the game……double dribbling and traveling. Used to be you tried not to foul. Now intentional fouling is an integral part of the game. Why not get 4 points for a half court shot? Oh well. Yes, I still enjoy March Madness. It’s just that the game has evolved to a point where I wonder why they don’t just wear pads and play it like football.

    Since the 3-point shot can be the game decider, everyone should worry about Princeton. These guys are for real and played, what I consider, a real clean game.

    Get back in!  I love this team. And Jabari Rice is as good a kid as I’ve ever been around. I have loved every second of his ride this season. He had a lot of people second guessing his decision to go to UT.  Whatever happens from here, I think it’s safe to say he chose wisely.
