Why is WH playing this game?

LHSA? Little Hopeful Shooters Association? Lonely Heart's Students Association?

Two words.....Rusty Nail.

I think they have a good chance to get out of the region. We shall see.

Somebody is salty. Especially after talking all that jabber this offseason. I figured you walked into this year with no expectations at all.

This is a 4th round game being played in round 1. I will definitely be at Stallworth on Friday night.

It's actually a disservice to the kids to allow 4 teams in the lower classifications. This will crush these kids.

Know how you develop winning cultures? Bring in coaches like Tod Stark and let him install a program.....not run him out of town in the middle of the season

Seems as if Gabe's expertise could be used by the BE or another news outlet in the area. Pretty crazy that this guy is not covering sports anymore in this area.......hear me VYPE?

I am not criticizing children, I'm criticizing the adults that were undoubtedly involved in all of this. Apparently leadership is lacking with that program.

Why? That field is embarrassing and it was once one of the best around!

I don't care what you say.....its pathetic.

Whats the deal with the dead field at HD?

This is my official apology to Crosby Football. Early in the year I was very critical of this team, it's defense, and its QB. I have been proven wrong on most of the things I was critical of and I would like to apologize. I would also like to apply for official membership to the Cougar Bandwagon. If my application is accepted, I will vow to support Cougar football for the remainder of the season, and hopefully all the way to Arlington. That is all.

Liberty gets taken to the woodshed Friday. WOS by 35+

I don't know you sir, but bravo.

This is pathetic.

HJ wins this game by 14. Liberty isn't the same team they were last year and it will show against a formidable opponent.

The best.

What percentage of those IMG kids end up with that free college? Also, is he paying to go there?

Worst thing that’s ever happened to HS Fb. I don’t understand parents that will allow trot kids to move and let this happen.

Stattrax mentiones Ware and Brown and guy who are from the area. What I have noticed is that most of the sports reporters are fresh faced, straight from college guys/gals who are just biding their time to grab a better job. Sports reporters are changed out in BMT like underwear and it hardly gives any of them the time to understand the tradition and mystique of this area. Back when the main guys were from here, they understood and the coverage was amazing! I used to rush home from my games to watch the Friday Night Tailgate Party on Channel 6.......those days are long gone. Having said that, the set up on FSSW on Friday nights is phenomenal on a state wide level.

My friend, my opinions of you have been shaped by my interactions with you on this board. If I have missed the mark, it's because you have portrayed yourself poorly. I have read plenty of books and feel pretty confident that my intellect is something you shouldn't be questioning. There is no hate in me except the hate that burns against the ideology you portray in every one of your posts on this subject. You are the worst kind, the kind that won't even open their mind to new ideas or consider that they might be wrong. You've already made your mind up before entering into the conversation so it's worthless to continue to talk to you about the subject. All I can do is continue to pray that men like you have your eyes opened, and continue to fight injustice when I encounter it. I promise you I will not get tired of the fight.

Just for clarities sake, are you contending that white people in this country have encountered racism that is comparable to the racism that the AA community has dealt with? Are you saying that AAs in Seattle don't encounter the same type of racism that exists in the south? So the black man from Seattle has no idea what "real" racism is because he's never lived in Georgia or Beaumont? There was a time that I didn't discuss race relations. A time where I stuck my head in the sand and tried to act like everything was ok. Then I started having conversations with my AA friends and co-workers and genuinely asking them to explain their experiences and perspective. I listened to them tell stories of white dads who threatened them with guns when they came to pick up their dates. Stories of SETX dads who clearly told these guys that their daughter would never date a "ni.....". Stories of being followed around in stores and threatened in parking lots by white men who said they got too close to their white wives when walking beside them. And listen, these aren't your "crotch grabbing", "gang clothes wearing" AAs that you guys blame everything on, these men work in a professional setting and mostly have college degrees. Even with those qualifiers that you all say would "change things", they have had these experiences. I could keep going on, but with each conversation my heart broke a little more, I understood a little more, and I got angrier. That's what qualifies me to discuss racial relations. I have actually spent time with those affected and genuinely listened and considered their stories. What qualifies you? Headlines on fox news or infowars? Maybe you could try to sit down with an AA co-worker and ask him to explain to you what it's like being a black man in America. It might blow your mind.

Here's the reality, the difference between you and I is that we have totally different definitions of racism. You want to draw a line at civil rights and say that everything prior to the movement shouldn't count anymore because "blacks" have their rights and they should just get over it. You refuse to see systematic racism and "white flight" to communities such as Lumberton, Vidor, and PNG as a peril that has kept AAs in their current social status for much longer than necessary. You refuse to see how pumping money into the west end of Beaumont and no where else has caused the other parts of the community to deteriorate while the "white" side of town has grown and flourished. You don't see those things.,,,you don't want to see those things. You just want to spout your self righteous crap and pat yourself on the back for not promoting "extermination of minorities and Jews" and use that as proof that you are not racist. I'd implore you to consider being a part of the solution and not a part of the problem.
