Hopefully they are correct. It would be nice for a change to see Lamar at the top of the heap again. I saw about 75 of their 80 straight home court wins and a few of the road games during that stretch. What a great time that was.

Isn't Thomas the one that assigns the principals?

"Nederland" hasn't said anything. Some fans made some predictions much as some Dayton fans made before the Lumberton game. I was talking about Nederland has beaten Stewart and his Broncos before so there is nothing new in beating Datyon.

Like it hasn't happened before?

Good luck with the rehab.

The problem seems a lot to do with district size. I saw some districts with as few as five teams and then you have districts with nine. Three or even four teams making the playoffs in an eight or nine team district will usually produce good and qualified playoff teams. Try getting four teams from a district with five or six teams total and it will take one win to qualify for the playoffs.

LOL, no team left behind.

No and probably not in the next realignment either.

It's a good thing you only bet two cents on it. ;D

People are assuming that by combining LC-M with WO-S there would have to be one high school. That is not true. If LC-M was having financial problems and needed to combine with someone, that does not mean that the new school board would combine the schools. They could choose to keep the schools the as they are but under one school board instead of two. Districts don't combine in order to make new football teams or to have fewer schools.

Nederland, PN-G, Lumberton and Dayton are all in the same situaion. If they win out, they go to the playoffs. They still all control their own destiny.

Someone had to go way back in the archives to drag this one up.

HAHAHAHA!!! I am so far right wing that I probably make you look like Teddy Kennedy. Right wingers are strong on laws in general and especially drug laws. Liberals are against drugs laws in general. The liberals want to do away with any substance abuse laws. A liberal view would be the ones on here that think if a kid tests positive, it is the government's responsibility to pay for counciling and/or rehab. Held accountable for your actions? Conservative. Pat little Johnny on the back since it isn't his fault and pay for anything he needs? Liberal. You have your political beliefs confused.

I can head to the deer lease without having to worry about making the playoff games for a change.

158 .... better wait another year on him.... ;D

You don't know. Maybe someone just doesn't like the name NDN.

The money isn't spent to "catch" students. The money is spent to "deter" students from using drugs.

Some people don't want the testing because they think it is a waste of money. If they do go ahead with the tests however and tell a school and parents that a kid is doing drugs, you think the state should have to pay for his counciling and rehab? You complain that it is going to cost $3 million a year for the tests but you are willing to spend way more than that for state funded counciling. Hmmmm........ By the way, $3 million comes out to about one penny per month per every person in Texas. That big waste of money comes to about 12 cents per year per person. If roughly a dime per person is too much for us to spend to the testing for drugs, then we are in trouble.

All Shimano's are over priced and other brands seem to be following. I love Shimano's. I just hate paying for them. Lately I have bought two Pinnacle reels. Both have been very smooth and I love fishing with them. They cost about 30-50% of what a similar Shimano costs.

Schools might merge within a district. School districts rarely merge and only do so if one or both of them is in deep financial trouble.

I see LC-M fans are still trying to find a way to beat Nederland and PN-G consistently. Maybe if we just combine with another school........... ;D

BISD of today was a merger of Beaumont ISD with South Park ISD. They each had three high schools (French, Beaumont High, Charlton Pollard, South Park High, Forest Park and Hebert) which eventually combined into two schools after the merger. They had steps along the way. Beaumont HS combined with Charlton Pollard High School to make Beaumont Charlton Pollard HS (BCP). After a few years of that, they combined French into BCP to form what is now Central. Then they combined the other schools to make West Brook for two high schools. Not to be outdone, they added back to a third HS, Ozen. So I think they went from two different ISD's with six high schools to 5 high schools to four high schools to two high schools and then back up to three high schools. Who knows what they will come up with next.

We've been seeing more big deer than usual and have a lot of them on camera. Maybe it will be a good year.

Type II is the way to go if you don't have a lease. Typical day/trophy hunts are way too expensive unless you just have a few thousand dollars laying around not doing anything.

Didn't GP come into the Nederland playoff game last year at 10-0?
