One of the more impressive teams I have seen this year is the Leggett Pirates. Coach Stewart is doing a tremendous job with his team. They are 8-1 overall after going 5-0 and winning the championship at the West Sabine tourney. They defeated West Sabine twice, Burkeville, Kirbyville and in the finals defeated a very good Shelbyville team, 60-50. These wins all over much bigger schools and teams.

When I say much bigger teams, not so much the size of the players, but the amount of players. You see, Leggett only has 6 players on their team. SIX!! I spoke with Coach Stewart after their win over West Sabine Friday and I asked if he had players out. His reply, "I wish". The six he has is the six he will have for entire season. Incredible!!

Speaking of his six players. His starting 5 is very good, with 4 of those that can lead the team in scoring in any game. Two of those are very special in #24 and #42. #24 is a '6"3 wing player who will be a complete match up nightmare for any team at the 1A level. He can score off the dribble, can post up and shoot from outside. #42 is a '6"5 post player that looks like he could play TE/DE for many 4A or above football teams. He has good touch around basket, very good rebounding skills and is a shot blocking machine. Both very impressive.

I will definitely keep my eye on this team. Just hope for no injury because that would be devastating for this team.

I saw some of their scores and was really impressed. With six players they must be really disciplined to make it through games and still be successful. 

Very. In the game I saw Friday, a couple of players started to get into foul trouble. Coach Stewart made adjustments to their defense and subbed the six man in accordingly. They were still able to keep some pressure but played it very smart.

      Biden just called half of America "GARBAGE".

      Are you really gonna talk about decorum from a President while supporting the guy who effectively has no such decorum? Just last night the former president (and would-be despot) was in Arizona talking with Tucker Carlson and fantasized about Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad… after calling her dumb, of course.     Trump didn’t just “defecate all over the office of the President”…. He is a piece of excrement.

      Montgomery @ PNG Discussion

      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 Judge Rules State Of Virginia Can't Strike Noncitizens From Voter Rolls!

      By tvc184 · Posted

      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.
