You come watch the Broncos on a Friday night at home. Wow!!!!!! The crowd is large. The band and the drill team or prepared. The Football team is pumped. I cannot think of a better place to be on a Friday night than watching HS Football in TEXAS. I sometimes like to go to other games when the Broncos are on a long road trip. It still is exciting to see the atmosphere at HS stadiums wherever I go watch a game. Those student athletes put in a lot of time to play this game. Some people forget that win or lose, those young men have sacrificed a lot to be able to play on Friday nights. Texas HS Football will always be the greatest thrill for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The work that goes into Texas High School football....from the discipline to academics (no pass, no play), from weak and timid to strong and intimidating....from seeing those who can't tie their own shoestrings at the beginning to seeing them perform daring catches or hard-hitting stops on the goal-line.  It's yelling for your kid or your team or your favorite colors (blue and sliver, for me)....the thrill of victory and the competitiveness of a kid that no one thought he had it in him. 

Didn't mention defeat...I'm a sore loser!  LOL

Football is just a more interesting sport to more people. Most other sports (with maybe the exception of basketball) tend to be boring by comparison. I am not saying that all of them are boring but compared to football, they are.

I love most sports, have played many sports and like to watch them both live and on tv. None compare to football however in most people's opinion, at least in Texas.

Completely agree...no two sports are as exciting as football and basketball...soccer has the high energy atmosphere but any sport where a high scoring team might avg. 3 goals a game gets boring quick

      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.

      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.
