I’m thinking the sky over the fields would be full of drones.

On a realistic note, I think we’ll be close to normal by the end of August.  I’ve been wrong before (thought aliens would land on the White House lawn in Feb 2000), but I just don’t think we, Americans, can stand this a whole lot longer, unless the deaths get a whole lot worse than now.  I don’t mean to sound callous, but our deaths are less than 0.02% of our population.   Jmo

If no fans in the stands happens ( I hope it doesn’t) then well over half the the schools in Houston ISD wouldn’t be affected.   Most don’t bring any fans anyway.

What is the purpose of making rude a$% comments like that? Its not the kids fault the parents don't and haven't supported their kids. People like you should step in the lives of one of these young men for a week and then come back and say something sarcastic! You are probably spoon fed growing up.

Easy, there.... I didn’t take his statement as particularly rude or aimed at the h-town kids. 
 

The fact is that a lot of the Houston schools don’t have community support. Sorry if the truth offends you.

First of all,  comment wasn’t rude.  Not sure how you got rude out of that post.

Second, Who are you to judge me?   People like me....you don’t know me.  People like you need to not judge people based on assumptions.

Have a great day!!!  Off to get my spoon fed meal.

Whats odd to me is that everyone is not stating the obvious which is video streaming the games.  You are going to have to buy a subscription and have a great internet connection to watch your favorite teams.  I can see the season ticket holders being sent a password before the game to be able to watch.  Just a vision of what may happen.  Believe me I don't want this at all, but i can see all school activities being done this way.

It's possible but I was wondering maybe only the immediate family of the players may be allowed to attend up to 4 people per athlete  due to there will be enough room to social distance from one another and it will give the support to the team there rooting for and if 1 family member doesnt attend you may be able to bring a guess in his or her place. Facebook live will become more popular than ever then.... Just a thought....Carry On...

Imo, it all boils down to schools opening.  If the schools open, there will be football.  Ah, some of you are thinking, we can’t have contact sports.  That’s 🐂💩.   There’s more contact in school halls when the bell rings than you’ll ever see on a football field.   And anyone making the decision now of whether the schools will be opening or not in August, is crazy.   That decision should be made in late July, and probably will be.   

Many experts said that heat & humidity would kill, or at least, wound the Virus.  Heaven knows SETX has plenty of that.

I agree. It’s stupid to say that the safest group with almost zero deaths can’t play football, etc. I don’t think it’s too soon to make the decision if schools will be open. They should be open. If anyone thinks they shouldn’t be open, please explain.

If either of these highlighted suggestions are the only “viable options”, I will be going to jail the first Friday night of high school football. Mark my effing words.

      Los Angeles becomes sanctuary despite dozens of murderous, child-preying illegals arrested in city this year

      By LumRaiderFan · Posted

      This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up One more reason why democrats should never be in charge of anything. From the article: The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously last week to become a "sanctuary city," categorically withholding any municipal assistance to federal immigration authorities despite a bevy of illegal immigrants arrested there for violent crimes and even violence against children this year.  The 13-0 vote last Tuesday comes weeks after President-elect Donald Trump's ballot-box victory and in the same year that dozens of illegal immigrants were picked up by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers in the L.A. metro area for murder, homicide and assault against children.  So far this year, Los Angeles ERO has arrested 1,263 illegal immigrants in the metro area so far this year, and 715 of them had criminal convictions, according to ICE data. The agency gathered 19,726 noncitizens between 2021 and 2024, and 7,255 of them, about 36%, had prior criminal convictions. That includes 26 illegal immigrants with pending charges or convictions for murder, homicide and assault against children who were arrested in the Los Angeles area during a nationwide operation from Jan. 16-28, ICE said.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      Take a look at this chart.  It shows how many kids per year transfer outside of the District WHILE LIVING IN GCCISD DISTRICT.  They reside within GCCISD, but attend school outside of it.  These numbers are straight from TEA. “TEA maintains data on students living in Goose Creek CISD who attend other public schools”, So we’re not even talking about kids whose families move or who use MeeMaw’s address.  That’s 100+ per year who still live in GCCISD and hitch a ride out to BHISD and back each day.  A lot of cars in that car rider line out of Baytown.  You think at least 10% of them aren’t athletes?  Maybe more like 20%?  C’mon, man, it’s plain to see and like I’ve been telling other folks ALL the successful programs do it.  It’s just gonna get a LITTLE harder to do it after 8/1/25, that’s all.  Won’t stop it, might not even slow it down much, but it’s gonna affect things a bit.

      BHISD isn’t all Riceland, there’s plenty of cheaper houses, trailer parks, RV Parks, etc and I hear there’s Apartment Complexes going in soon.  Also, you don’t even have to move there as long as you’ve got a MeeMaw or Auntie in BHISD zone, you just sign an affidavit that your kid is living with MeeMaw or Auntie and they’re in.  Don’t take my word for it, I already posted GCCISDs numbers showing twice as many GCCISD kids are transferring to BHISD than to the other surrounding Districts, 100+ per year.  If only 10% of those are for athletic purposes that’s 10 athletes a year minimum and I’m willing to bet it’s a little higher.   What’s also true and the point I was trying to make there is that as Riceland fills up it’s definitely going to change BHISD.  Those homes start at $500k and run up past $1M.  Gonna be a lot less “Country” and a lot more White Collar.
