I had a thought with all the tribues to Reggie that are being planned and carried out I had an idea. What if every team with a grass field left off just one of the 10 yard marking numbers on their field this week and put 12 on the 12 yard line instead?

Just thought it would be a remembrance that every team and fan could participate in and thought I would put it out before field prepartion got started.

I would have loved to have seen one unified gesture of rememberance but so many people want to express their respects in so many different ways. I cant help but to wonder what kind of comfort it is to his family to see all of the out pouring of love, respect and admiration that all of the surrounding communities are showing. You have a great idea along with so many others.

This is a great idea I think you would have to get permission from the UIL to do so. Now dont get me wrong I believe that would be a great thing to do. Now I could be wrong about the UIL so if anyone knows if theres a rule of some sort let me know.

The senior football players from Evadale did all the field prep yesterday for homecoming. They did not mark the 12 yard line, but they did put #12 in each corner of the end zone. 10'X10' blue squares with white #12 over the top of the blue. It is very classy and it looks great. I also saw the #12 stickers on the back of the helmets yesterday.

To all of WOS our prayers will be with you tonight. It will be a difficult night as the Friday night lights will be burning for a differnt reason toninght. All of SETX has been touched by this young man's life and we all wish that in this time of grief that you can continue to heal and move on. To the players, you can never forget something like this, but you can move forward and use the example of this fine young man as a guide for your own lives.

To all of SETX, this past week has once again shown some of the very best from our area. The response has been great and I am sure that in every stadium tonight there will be a little bit of Reggie in all of our hearts. His was a life cut to short, but it will be a life that is long remembered!

I also had thought maybe every QB in the Golden Triangle wearing the number 12 during this Fridays games. This too would be hard to get done. Probably impossible, but would be a unifying gesture of respect.

      NIH Chief Confesses COVID Health Initiatives Were "COMPLETELY MADE UP”!

      By Reagan · Posted

      In a video released Monday, Raja Cholan, a top official at the U.S. National Library of Medicine under the NIH, admitted to an undercover OMG operative he doubts jab efficacy and hasn’t “gotten the latest COVID shots and I’m not going to.”  “I PROBABLY SHOULDN’T BE SAYING THIS OUT LOUD;” Chief Confesses COVID Health Initiatives Were "COMPLETELY MADE UP”. "I don’t even know if these vaccines stop you from getting COVID. They don’t.” Adds, "We're all going to learn [about vaccine safety] when it's too late," as Pfizer & Moderna "are just getting a bunch of money… Vaccines were accelerated through the approval.” ‘We fly under the radar of being scrutinized…I don't think I have too much to worry about.’ Trump victory “worse for the NIH.” “It would be better for a Democrat to be in office.” WOW!!!!

      Newsom Proof

      By baddog · Posted

      The same reason you worry about Trump more than anything else. Why do trolls like yourself start threads like your Soros hedge fund thread and you never come back to…..just bait. Newsom might make a run for president in 2028. People need to know about his policies. You don’t think that’s important?

      Newton vs Daingerfield

      By Newtonres75-86 · Posted

      I like Newton’s chances here. I’ve watched  videos of Daingerfield what few I could get. Their big Qb scares me a little he looks Ike a good athlete. I think for a change Newton has a little more speed than the Tigers. That Samuel kid for Newton can move., and it goes without saying about Porter. That Hunter kid ain’t bad either. They scared me to death with their pass defense against Edgewood until I saw the video. That Qb for Edgewood can put it on a dime. And, his receivers could catch it. I’m pumped; this is the most fun time of the year for me. Go Eagles.🦅 I have to add this though. I watched the State game between the tigers and Yoe in 2010. Those guys looked like grown men playing as opposed to kids now a days who look like boys.😂 that was a heck of a good game.
