[/quote]He felt it had that "not so fresh feeling." [/quote] Sometimes we tend to self moderate which was done in this case.  Its kind of like Otis on Mayberry----when he had his filll---he locked himself up and slept it off.  In this case our friend from young guns just chose to go to another bar.  But then again---so did we all.

Any smart HS coach understands that atheletes that participate in summer sports has tremendous benefits for his HS program.  I often see HS coaches at the area tournaments and they support their players in addition to gaining an abundance of information just by observing.   What you dont see very often is HS coaches coaching from the stands and getting involved directly with the players which while being a common courtesy, it also is frowned upon by UIL.  On the other hand, it should also be the same common courtesy for Select coaches to refrain from coaching outside the dug out at a HS game.   Also, the same should apply in situations when it is not the same sport.  As long as atheletes are staying in shape, multi seasons and or multi sports should be acceptable.

Shucks---Butch Thomas has a living room TV bigger than that.  ;D

[quote name="H-D BOBCAT 55" post="821037" timestamp="1280252755"] Looks like a cool offense. Forces a defense to play their gaps and be disciplined. [/quote] Yep it is--but you still have to have the talent to run it.  Speed and power are tough to defend in an offense like this. 

[quote name="scooter!" post="820418" timestamp="1280089806"] Another thing, folks out here know about memorial and the mid-county schools.

[quote name="panamamyers" post="819423" timestamp="1279717121"] Baytown is not Port Arthur. Port Arthur still only has less than 3,000 students even with all high schools combined. Baytown would have over 5,000. PA is a product of poor coaching and no discipline. You can set your watch by it.  As soon as they run into a little turbulence, they throw in the towel and quit. Baytown is not now, nor ever will be, anything like Port Arthur. [/quote] Yet again--Baytown will never be a Beaumont also---- Never forget the reputation that  Beaumont - Pt Arthur and Orange --is the Golden Triangle and is the pro-football capital of the world.  When you come here---bring your hip-pads----your gonna need em. ;D

[/quote] Stone's throw from WB aka Forest Park but I'm a solutions oriented person.  If this little coup de tat goes through, I propose everybody that looks like me remove their kids from Forest Park so everybody that looks like you can be happy.  And then, y'all @Forest Park can continue the storied winning tradition y'all had up until '82.... Oh yeah, that's right, y'all didn't have a winning tradition..... [/quote] LOL---I went to FP (Egors class of 76). Dont look like you, but we still need you.

[quote name="panamamyers" post="819167" timestamp="1279629736"] Katy has multiple junior highs, but they all learn the Katy system and all feed into Katy. It's not the multiple junior highs as much as it is that any one junior high can go to multiple high schools. If Baytown had 6 junior highs, 2 going to Lee, 2 going to Sterling and 2 going to GCM...it would make for a much better athletic program at each. Katy can start teaching their system all the way down in pop warner league. I'm not sure how West Brook does their zoning.  I do know that Lee used to beat the fire out of the Bruins when they had an equal number of students, so what West Brook does is neither here nor there. Yes, you can compete and win without having junior high feeder systems for the high schools, but it's just easier to compete and win if you do have the system in place. [/quote] The years Lee beat the fire out of West Brook was when WB was split into OZEN and lost most of its Atheletes to OZEN. With OZEN being declared as a magnet school--- the magnet attracted the kids that could pump iron  Then came Stump and things began to fall back into place.   ;)

I say that all our local players withdraw their lletters of intent to play for Penn State and re-sign with LAMAR. ;)

Just heard BP fixed the leak out in the GULF.  They put a wedding band around the pipe and she immediately stopped putting out. So now we need some Oklahoma fans to go out  and suck up the remaining mess.

960 suck post.  Will 1000 sucks be attainable? Maybe SETX sports can get into the Guiness Book of records for recognizing OU as the suckiest college in History. 

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="814943" timestamp="1277694963"] OU sucks so bad I just went on vacation to Colorado and one of the best parts of the trip was when I found out we never had to drive through Oklahoma!

ATTENTION ALL OU GRADS ---YOUR PRESENCE IS BEING REQUESTED SOUTH OF HOUMA LOUISIANA.  A BOAT IS WAITING TO TAKE YOU OUT TO THE GULF OF MEXICO.  SINCE YOU ALL SUCK SO MUCH, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS FOUND A WAY FOR YOU TO BE USEFUL IN THIS ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER. 

Speaking of marriage--- Did ya'll hear about the two OU Grads getting married in a bath-tub.  It was a double ring ceremony.  ;D

[quote name="Mc" post="800467" timestamp="1273604913"] Golf Channel reporter Win McMurry committed a gaffe when describing Tiger Woods' reason for dropping out of the last round of the Players Championship: She called his "bulging disk" a "bulging d--k." "[Woods] says he's been playing with a bad neck for about a month and thinks it could be a bulging d--k," the broadcaster said Sunday in a voice-over before immediately correcting her faux pas. [/quote] I voted for both.  His putting on unfamiliar turf because of the latter condition caused him to take a 9 iron in the neck causing the most recent condition.  The two conditions are what we call an indirect relationship.  Both are cured by keeping the head in a relaxed state. 

LOL--I thought the SGT was posting JR's accomplishments.

[quote name="bleed orange" post="795169" timestamp="1272334382"] I am sorry, I know you did not bash Orangefield but others did and that is who I should have directed my post at. Just do not believe in the ethnic issue plain and simple. Would not care if my son went to the mall at night. He can take care of himself. Women are more vunerable to an overpowering attacker. Good for you, your kids have traveled. Mine have too but I will still not let my wife or daughter go to parkdale alone at night. Your right, if I know about it. ;D Also I am a father and husband who is concerned about the society we live in. It was much simpler in my day. Do I think it is just Beaumont? Come on, it is every city, town and small community. I mean a 76 year old man is beaten to death at an insurance agency in Orange. Why would someone try to rob an insurance agency. There is no money there. A man died for nothing. Just don't understand the society we live in. I will worry about my daughter every day of her life. I know I cannot control it but I will still worry.  I worry every time she gets behind the wheel. Texting is all I have to say about that. [/quote] Your good post has inspired me to share my thoughts. A couple of years ago, my daughter asked us to host a meal for several homecoming couples from West Brook.  At the same table in our living room sat a Jewish girl with her Arab date, A Puerto Rican girl with her date, A black couple, and my daughter who brought the bottomless pit.  All of these kids remain friends today and all graduated very high in their class. Amoung these friends, we had an athelete, some band kids, a drama student, class president, an other very involved students.  I agree, football was not well represented, but I worked on it with them ;D.  (Our floor actually was damaged by hurricane Rita  and we ripped it up and painted and striped a football field for the occasion and called it the end  zone. ) One can always argue that ethnic diversity has its problems, but when you put the cream of the crops together, you have a very special thing taking place.  The best way I can put this is that when these kids work, study and play together, the prejudices instilled within them is weakoned.  I have witnessed this greatly, by watching three of my own go through Da Brook.  It has given me a feeling of hope that I would not have received at a school that has a huge majority of one race or culture.  I refuse to attack any community just because of the bad news that comes out of it.  There are always those that remain there to help it mend its ways.

I don't dislike Orangefield, but two things I've realized over the years is 1.  they don't pay, and aren't willing to hire a big time coach.  As long as your a yes man and buddies with the sup, you get the job.  2.  They are fantasy minded.  They start off 3-0 with wins over Buna, Tarkington and any other annual scub they think they are great.  Any time they play a decent team they lose.   Its been a long time since OF has had a legitmite team that could compete with anyone decent.  But you'll have a hard time convincing them of the truth though. [/quote] You have no clue what you are talking about. How did we go from education to football? I will agree that Orangefield does not pay big money for coaches But we do have a good AD now and he will turn things around. I am not just talking about "Wins". Our tax base is largely on the cummunity. Our boys may not compete well in football but they compete well in some of the other sports. Our girls program can compete with anyone and does. I am sure some parents in Orangefield are delusional about their expectation for the program. Those same delusional parents are at every school. [b]It's not like westbrook is setting the world on fire with their athletic sucess either[/b].

[/quote] Last post on this. Boys side first, regional qualifiers in Track, Golf, Tennis, Powerlifting (one went to state) and baseball will either be district champs or co. Basketball had a winning record barley missed playoffs. Girls side, Playoffs the last 8 years in basketball, regoinal quaterfinals twice and regional semifinals twice. Volleyball playoffs the last two years, Regional qualifiers in, tennis, golf and track. Softball tied for 3rd but lost play in game. I will admit that basketball is our best sport on the girls side.
