PA (South County) is a hotbed of talent in every sport,  always has been. They just need coaching with an understanding of the kids. A little give and take goes a long way.

We out here!! 

 

And SP had a kid offered in bball by Rhode Island couple days ago. :)

My question is ... Was he offered that bball scholarship while still attending school in Port Arthur? I just dont see a scout coming all the way from Rhode Island to scout a 2A that just lost their longtime basketball coach. I went to school at Sabine In the early 2000's and there wasnt ever a scout at any sporting event ...

You might as well claim one of the MC schools too...  They're more cloaser to y'all than us.  Nederland.  Lol

If one of the kids from the Mid - County schools; is from PA and  cut his teeth on and fine tuned his game on the courts and fields of PA than he gets love and props from PA. We recognize the situation.

lol...not really...ANY kid that has gone to a MC school that's from PA got no love from media or by anyone else. why?? because imo they was never that good to begin with AND because they went to a MC school, scouts are not going to be kicking in the doors, unless it's baseball.

For myself, and the people I know. Ain't no hate for getting your kid to his destination. (ULL, UNLV, TAMU). If a situation is not conducive to you winning THAN you flip the script.

Oh trust me there's no hate. I just think it's laughable when I hear parents and relatives give that same ole excuse, "I want my kid to get a better education" but,  those same parents/relatives don't see to it that their kid isn't the problem in P.A.I.S.D. though. And when the kid goes to other districts, they make sure that their kid are "the model students."

Well my brother was always a top 5% student while in Port Arthur and now is a top 10% student-athlete at PN-G. He has never been in any major trouble, suspensions, fights, whatever you can name.  He was always a model student. I was never challenged in Port Arthur either.  I skipped 2nd grade, and graduated early. I ALWAYS felt I was not challenged in school until I went to  Beaumont Kelly, where my previous middle school performance landed me a scholarship where my mom was paying $150-200 tuition. Now I am working on a graduate degree and I feel it was because my parents saw there was a need to challenge BOTH of us and invest accordingly. It gave me culture and experiences that MANY (but not all) of my friends back home have NEVER had the opportunity to have. If a parent thinks he or she is doing what is best for their child, it their business. I know my son is going to the BEST of the BEST, no matter the cost, because my parents sacrificed the same for me.

I'll say this with all the sincerity I can muster up. I'm very happy for you and your little brother. However, my previous post was NOT directed toward you or him. It was a generalized statement.

I didnt think you were referring to us. I just thought your generalization was a little inaccurate. I know what you said indeed reflects a good number of kids who do transfer, but not all of them. Respectful disagreement.

I didn't say ALL of them. The only point I was making was that is the "excuse" I hear 9 times out of 10.

Well, I am so glad I don't have school age children.  I'd home school my children before sending them to a all-white situation.  I'd rather educate business owners(potentially) than just more self-hating individuals with no knowledge of self.......

 

No Child Left Behind has some of you thinking Mr. Charlie's waters is more wet than it is in PA and or BMT......

Forget that. When a weak excuse come up, I say well that kid need to not play sports and focus on the books since that's why they so say transferred. I have more respect if they say, Kenny ray was messing over my son. Again generalized statement  because kids have come our of memorial that excelled more than rochonbigbro. If your child or that adult think football or sports is the ticket to get an education, then please go to a mid county school. History proves that ish dint work.

    • I like option number two, PNG and Nederland both win. Nederland i’ll be the district champion, number 1 seed or whatever you want to call it. Yes I know that if two or three teams tie with the same record, they will be called co-champions and everyone gets a trophy. One team however will go in as the first place team in district and will play the fourth place team in the bi-district round. If PNG and Nederland both win, Nederland will be #1.

    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
