Name was just changed to that a few months ago.  So I’m sure it’s not a number of people that call it that.  Heck, most of the fans I know don’t even know that it was changed to Doggett….

You knew but they don't know? Do your fans ever drive down I-10? Doggett does have three car dealerships in Beaumont BTW. 

It will be interesting to see if you correct people in the future since you for example, care about the West Brook name accuracy.

To certain segments of the population, it will always be the Butch✊🏿.  Also, DC has WB as an underdog #rockbottom

I would say I care, it just bothers me when people keep getting it wrong.

We really don’t care they changed the name it will always be known as “The Butch” maybe generations later it will fade just like everything else the wish would go away. You can’t erase the history just program those that don’t know any difference.

And that will continue to be wrong.

Its a shame some BISD fans want to diss on Doggett. Doggett is supporting BISD by paying for naming rights. They ought to be appreciated. 

Isn't Butch the one who fled to Belieze to avoid a prison sentence or something?  

I’m almost 1000% positive the Doggett family has some dirt somewhere down the line. It’s just not going to publicize. You know how some people do. The history I’m sure is there.

Calling The Butch after Butch Thomas relates to Beaumonts culture.

They dont know any better........

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
