How many years...


Recommended Posts

Honestly, I have missed only a hand full of games since WOS became WOS. I remember I was in the 6th grade when the school started and we went to all of the games then with my buds, I didn't miss any in highschool my first 2 years then I was playing my second 2 yrs. I missed a couple of games while off at college, but I still drove home for most of them and caught all of the playoff games. Since I graduated from college I have not missed many.

The first year I know for sure was 1973. Didn't miss a game through to 1976, I was in the band.....LOL. Now as a FANatic, I started going regularly again around '84 when I moved back to L-Town and I've had season tickets for the last 15+ years, row C 50 yard line, but I only sit there about 5 minutes once during the season as I walk the sidewalk running the length of the field.

Went to every Central game as a high school kid. Then started consistently going to all games from 2002- now.  In that spand, I may have missed like 4 games.  (those games were in the 2004 and 2007 team, which they sucked.  1-9 and 4-6 records respectively.  Those years were hard  to stomach)

I'm 25 now, but I've been to every home game since 7th grade, including the ones I used to play in.  I've never missed a playoff game.  Starting last year, I finally wrestled a descent pair of season tickets away from the more wealthy families in Brenham.  (such as the Kruse's who own Blue Bell and Appel's that own 2 car dealerships, etc.) Small town + large wealthy families = slim chance at season tickets.  I've always watched a few of our away games, but last year I didn't miss any and I plan to continue traveling to all of them in the future.  ;D

    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
