AggiesAreWe Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Some folks have known but I will make it public. My time as a full time administrator/broadcaster is up. I told my wife of 33 years that when she retired from teaching that I would retire with her to the beach. She retired last May and I told her I would finish out the football and basketball seasons of this year then I would join her. (would have joined her in May but needed to stay on after the passing of our beloved admin WOSGrad). I am so ready to be a beach bum. I have enjoyed these past 17 years here on the site. I have seen it grow from just a little message board to now be considered a valuable media outlet. It truly has been a labor of love. First of all, I want to thank Jordan Wilson, the owner of this site, by inviting me on as a staff member and eventually an administrator. He trusted me with the help of running this site and allowed me to "do my thang" and start my broadcast career. It has truly been a blessing. Thanks I want to thank Todd Broussard (WOSGrad) who is looking down on us from heaven. He has been my partner in crime for all these years and is the reason this site is what it is today. He was the man!! I dearly miss my old friend and I hope that he is up there saying "job well done my friend". Thanks Todd for everything you did for me and this site. I want to thank all the staff members here. Particularly Lucas, Mack, Robert, Terry, Matthew and all of the other staff. You have helped make this the place to be as for Southeast Texas sports. Thanks for all the support over the years. Thanks to all the coaches that I have come to know and work with all these years. Thank you for your support and cooperation and your acceptance of me and SETXsports. I am truly grateful. Thanks to all the members here who really are what makes this site so great. I have become friends with several here and I cherish all the times we have spent on and off this site. God Bless all of you. I wish all and this site the very best. I will still be around some but it will be mostly from my chair on the beach with my toes in the sand holding a cold one. Thanks again to everyone and May God Bless.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Wish i could add a like. +1 dawg. 💯 (Take the pun how you want, I'll be watching Jasper this season along with Summer Creek) 😁 AggiesAreWe 1 Quote
2wedge Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Great job over the years! Thank you for the service you provided and if I see you on the beach, I’ll have a cold one waiting for you! Headed down there today as a matter of fact! As far as the site, I’m assuming this is going to leave a pretty large admin void. Let us know how we can pitch in to help. We can’t afford to lose this. This is the best site out there. Sorry Smoaky, but you just don’t compare!! Shots fired! AggiesAreWe and bullets13 2 Quote

In my opinion, you and Todd WERE Setxsports. The behind the scenes leg work was outstanding and extensive. How many times did the mods ask questions and you both had answers quickly, no wavering or ambiguity and backed us up. The mods know and others might soon find out the void that has occurred with Todd’s passing and your retirement. It has been my privilege and pleasure to work with you. Job well done. Enjoy the beach and your other pursuits. RETIREDFAN1, dme1111, BMTSoulja1 and 4 others 6 1 Quote
