Wow, all these people who's team is not ranked and they have a negative attitude towards the teams that are ranked. How many time have we heard that WO-S is overrated.

DC site said the magazine should hit the stores on or around the 28th of June. Places like Wal mark have someone put the magazines out and they only come one day a week.

Newton's stadium is grass and the seating is not large enough for a playoff game. Also, one team has to travel a long distance at times and this is a school night. Smaller schools like Newton like to play in a nice stadium with artifical turf. If it is not broke don't fix it. Meeting half way is still the best solution.

Not sure, but it seems that Carthage finished third in their district and won state that year.

For every team that host a playoff game, their is their opponent that has an open stadium.

Hughes Spring will be no match for hf. Just hear on CNN that 7 on 7 is the stepping stone to success. According to CNN, hf is on the rise.

and the school board can make a difference, and who elects the school board ''the people like you do", so who is to blame? It is easy to sit back and blame the school board. If you don't like the school board's decisions, then step up and run for the board (who have more duties then to just select a football coach).

Best of luck coach Spell, wishing you a healthy retirement. Wow, 45 years, you obviously have touched many lives. I repeat a saying,' what you do for yourself will pass away but what you do for others will live on'.

I think it would be more modestly said to use the term "one of the best" instead of '' the greatest.''

I love it, it will give me more time to get one of those $7 cokes at AT&T stadium.

This will make the games longer. I have no problem with the replay but the three games a day at AT&T have very little time between games as it is.

"Nothing but trash out there". Lord, its great to be humble.

You have it correct. I just got that schedule from W.T. and he said we would have only 9 games. He said this is the final schedule. I'm sure if something came up for the 9-21 date that he would welcome a game there but does not see a change.

Newton Varsity, JV, and JH games

In order to draw the crowds (money), the system is set up the way it is. A lot of people will come early to watch the smaller schools but if you put some 5a or 6a schools ahead of a 1a or 2a schools then most of those 6a fans are going to leave after their games. I don't see Arlington making any changes. What a drive it would have to be for Gunter to drive to Houston or San Antonio. I don't think their is a perfect solution.

Well said Matthew 328, also, the kids love to play there. Those that say AT&T is trash have obviously never stood on the field and never looked up at that great stadium.

AT&T is not trash. I think the kids like playing there and the hard work is not put out by the fans, it's put out by the kids. I like having all the games at one stadium. Dallas is more centrally located then Houston or San Antonio. I am not a Jerry fan but the stadium is nice. I don't think Jerry owns the stadium but has a lot of say in it. I think the stadium was built by the tax payers.

Another State Championship for our area. WO-S, Silsbee, Newton, PN-G making our area look good. Way to go Memorial. Now, Silsbee bring home another.

One thing in his favor he has not lost a game in 9 years..

Newton Schedule 1.Kirbyville 2.Silsbee 3 WO-S 4 Open 5. Gilmer - Last I heard they were still working on a neutral site. 6. Open Does anyone know the home/visitor schedule. I know homecoming is Oct.26 with New Waverly. I know the schedules are in the Fieldhouse but I have not went by to pick one up.

Well said Justadude. Best of luck to Thompson and Johnston next year. Hope to see both at AT&T Next year.

Excellent choices.

Well said W0-S.

What was the score of the WO-S Richmond Foster game? Did that make WO-S any less of a powerhouse in their division? No it did not and if WO-S and Gilmer beat Newton that will not make Newton any less of a powerhouse in their division. Most Newton people are supporters of WO-S (except when we play each other). We have great respect for WO-S.
