I don't share much with my wife about my conversations on SETXsports, but this one had me rolling. She actually found it humorous as well (+1 for creativity). Thanks for the laugh!  ;D ;D ;D

And actually Yates has a Whose Who list of alumni, even if you take out the sports.

Yes they do. 2 of the largest are Phylica Rashad (Clair Huxtable the Cosby Show)  and her sister Debbie Allen ( professional dance teacher to the stars and show Fame)!

The point is they have more big names who have made moves than HJ! Who went to HJ? ALF?

I guess how you define big moves is the key here.  I still don't understand why I couldnt reach that surgeon you mentioned at the hospital .  Also for the last time, please give me the name of the four major insurance companies in Houston and the names of those 3 Yates graduates that run three of them.  Now that you have identified the top graduates, I would like to compare drop out rates and school ratings.

Nice try Dove-  Why dont you comb through all of my comments and find where I EVER said anything about Mr. Obamas birthplace?  Frankly, it doesnt matter to me-  I am much more interested in his economic incompetence.  Are you interested in the tax returns of the Presidential Candidates?  If you are, then, you are surely interested in the academic and medical records as well.

You spoke about one small group of people who graduated from HJ who did well. Yates is far more superior in sports and graduates. Sour Lake is about 50 people over the limit of being considered a ghost town dude!m

Cheap talk that sounds good to you that you cannot verify.  No different than all the golf BS you used to throw out.  Funny that never comes up any more.  I wonder why?  I am going to investigate the drop out rate of both schools and will get back to you.  The difference is that when I provide you with the numbers they will be accurate and verifiable.

Dove your boys have been working out in PA.  Thats a good thing.  We got the transfer papers ready for them.  I think I seen one of them getting his uniform number. lol
They are getting some serious work though working out with the boys.  NBA, college and High School and even Junior High and Elementary working together to get better.

Stevenash your son is very good at golf and it seems like he has a chance to make some money playing professionally. You on the other hand wouldn't stand a chance playing me. I shot a less than stellar 78 in HorseShoe Bay last weekend. If you would like to play a pair with your son, I'd be happy to pay. You have the number and I'd be happy to pick a neutral spot. Red Stone could be a nice place. I have a few close friends that would love to challenge your son as well. Put your money where your pie hole is and make the call to me and stop beating around the bush!

WE've only been through this 100 times before.  The last time, your reason was that it is too hot.  If I am twice your age, that probably isnt a good match, do ya think?  The few close friends thing means nothing.  If your close friends work for a living as Sleepy does, I will bet whatever you want.  However, anything can happen in a single round.  So you name the $, and I will put Sleepy up against your "friends" ( and we both know it wont really be a friend but rather a scramble by you to find the best player you can find) in a 3 round match at 3 separate mutually agreed upon courses.  While you are at it, tell me why your "friends" arent joining Sleepy at the Mid Am in Chicago if they play better than Sleepy?
