  1. Questions for MB ... (if you're taking questions from the callers/audience): 1. How healthy are the Indians going into the homestretch of the District 22-4A race (vs. Vidor, Central, and Dayton)? 2. Are you surprised by how well QB Harrison Tatum played over the past 2 weeks (vs. Nederland and Lumberton)? Harrison managed the past 2 games very well, limited TOs, he threw the ball with confidence, and he is getting better going through progressions and hitting the 2nd or 3rd WR in the pattern. For a JR at the QB spot, are you surprised? 3. What prompted the offensive imagination over the past 2 weeks? The power run game mixed in with a flea flicker, WR reverse, throwing to the TEs, screens, crossing patterns, combination routes, getting Hemmings and Wright in the flats? The Indians are definitely improved on offense compared to weeks 1 and 2. The power run game is there, but seems like the offensive schemes have been imaginative over the past 2 weeks. True? 4. Great to have a DE (Schexnaider) at 6'4" or 6'5" coming off the end; LB Walker at 6'3" or 6'4" roaming the middle, and your son Clint Burnett at 6'2" 215 playing a hybrid DE/LB position. 2 or 3 kids rotate on the DL to stay fresh, and the secondary keeps improving week to week. Is this the best Indian defense in the past 10 years? Maybe not statistically, but at least on the field making plays? 5. Playing LaMarque and Crosby in the preseason prepared the Indians for district play? Will you continue the trend of playing a tough pre-district schedule in future seasons? Any chance WO-S returns to the pre-district schedule? PAM or West Brook? One of the Baytown schools? 6. Are you ready to break the all-time win record set by legendary PN-G Head Coach Doug Ethridge? What will that mean to MB? Are there any plans to have Doug Ethridge at the game when MB breaks the record? Have you kept in contact with Coach Ethridge? Go Indians. Peace.
  2. Nice interview ... interesting response to the "plans after basketball" question. Accounting vs. Recruiting. I think I'd go with ACCT. If you're an accountant, you count money and make a lot of it. If you're a recruiter, you don't make much, but you hand out a lot of money to AAU coaches, prima-donnas, and parents who think their child will be the next all-world player. Emily, go with that ACCT plan. You'll be happy. Nice interview ... glad to see LU kids get some publicity ... all the media attention will increase the visibility of the university and men's and women's programs. Here's to hoping LU men's and women's BB teams have a great year. LC: What are your plans after you finish playing basketball? ES: I'm majoring in business, so maybe an accountant or a recruiter under coach Tidwell P.S. I see where the Lady Cards play Coach Joe Curl's Lady Cougars at UH. May have to go see that game. Go Coogs. Peace.
  3. Port Neches - Groves Indians. 1. Richy Ethridge (Texas Tech) (won SC in '75; SF in '76) 2. Dustin Long (TAMU & SHSU) (played in SC '99) 3. Jeff Bergeron (UH) (unfortunately, played in Lil' Joe Washington era) 4. Gordon LeBoeuf (TAMU) (won SC in '55) TIE for 5th Ted Brack (TCU) (SF in '76; played in SC in '77) Robert Giblin (UH) 6. Matt Burnett (Lamar) (played in SF in '74) 7. Wilson Weber (UT) (SF in '74; won SC in '75) 8. Justin Eicher (unknown) (played in SC in '77) 9. Mike Simpson (UH) TIE for 10th Ron McGill (SFA, I believe) (QF in '89) Keith Waguespack (TAMU) (QF in '89) If my recollection of college choices is incorrect, one of the PN-G historians please correct. I know LeBoeuf, Simpson, Bergeron, and Giblin played in the NFL... but the teams/years will need to be looked up. Go NDNs. Peace.

"Winning this little battle would be like winning at the Special Olimpics, if you try real hard you might win, but your still retarded" Not really interested in the WO-S v. BH debate, but the Special Olympics quote is not funny. Not sure why that would be one of your favorite quotes? I'm involved with the Texas Special Olympics, and the participants I work with are all winners. If you would like to see first hand and experience the thrill of watching special competitors, I'll save you a spot at the next track meet, swim meet, or table tennis event here in the Greater Houston Area. We usually have over 750 participants at local events, and we could use some more volunteers. Peace.
