  1. Anyone seen the magazine in any stores?
  2. Wow, I thought all district was supposed to be based off your performance in district.
  3. Not bad other than the fact that they have a basketball logo, smh
  4. Need to throw some money at Schultz and lock him up, let Connor Williams and Gregory go, draft a Guard and a DT with the first two picks in the draft, then add depth to the defense and maybe another OL. Probably can afford to keep Gallup easier since he got injured. I like Pollard, but if they can't afford to keep him, they should be able to draft a solid backup to Zeke. If they add a receiver I would like to see them add a taller 6'3 + guy. Today's loss hurts, but this roster is close to being elite, IMO. Also with the loss, it helps our chances to keep both coordinators, which I believe we should.
  5. Has Johnny ever stayed anywhere more than a year? I guess this is the job he's been working towards but man he seems like a grass is always greener guy.
  6. That’s the problem, people are more worried about who will get upset than doing what’s right. Real leaders must do what they believe is right and ignore the social media frenzy!
  7. I guess I’m confused how this means no sports. Leaving it up to the districts makes more sense to me because not all areas of the state are being hit as hard. Now we just need the districts to realize it’s okay to allow the kids and their families to make the choice to participate or not. I personally don’t think any of the districts should shut down, but districts in Houston, DFW, San Antonio, Austin etc would make much more sense to have more restrictions than more rural areas. Don’t give in to the cowards that are pushing the cancel culture. Write and talk to your superintendents, board members, etc and tell them to take a stand for the kids and let them play!
  8. Another issue with going online only that hasn’t been addressed a whole lot is what about the families that can’t afford daycare? Plus I would imagine daycare’s will be full and turning people away. Yea some mom’s will be home and be available to assist their children, but many won’t. So what will that look like? Going to be a lot of unsupervised kids that need supervision. Going to be a lot of “babysitting” of kids in groups at grandparents, neighbors houses or wherever. Some of these environments will be much LESS SAFE for the kids than being at school. If it were a guarantee that going online only and dropping extra curricular activities was going to save lives and the negative effects would be minimal, everyone would be on board, but the evidence just isn’t there for either case.
  9. The parents and students should get to make that decision. No one is forcing anybody to play that doesn’t feel like taking those risks. People already make the decision on a daily basis when they get in their car and drive down the road as others have pointed out.
  10. Ok so if there’s an outbreak, then that particular district takes necessary measures just like we’ve done with the seasonal flu in the past. Why is that solution all of a sudden being thrown out the window by some? People that think it’s no big deal to go to exclusive online learning and no big deal to just cancel extracurricular activities don’t have a clue about what kids need. The damage will be much more significant than a virus that has a 99.9% recovery rate. If nothing else, the parents should have the right to choose!
  11. Ok... it’s EXTREMELY rare. There’s only been 13 deaths across the entire United States from ages 5-14 as of June 17th and I highly doubt those were all healthy kids. But we have people wanting to shut schools down. Wake up people! The cancel culture has got to stop!
  12. Stupidity is condemning half of an entire nation over 150 years later. It was a different time and a different culture. Yes slavery is wrong, but not all of the south owned slaves or was pro slavery. Many southerners fought for their homes, their land, and their families and countrymen. This may blow your mind, but there were some good people that lived in the South during the time of slavery. Obviously, there were plenty of evil men as well on both sides. Those people are dead and gone and God has already judged them. Maybe we should never make statues for any man or woman, because we are all guilty of sin and wrongdoing or maybe we just happened to live at a time where things were culturally acceptable during our lifetime even if we didn’t agree. I think abortion is evil, but it is acceptable in our culture today. I hope there comes a time where it is illegal and people feel the same way towards it as they do slavery. 200 years from now they may be tearing down all of the statues of people during our time because they lived during the abortion era! The point is, if someone or something has to be perfect to have a statute or have something named for them/it, there should only be statues of Jesus Christ, because he was the only perfect person. I mean how much good does someone have to do to cover up their mistakes or the mistakes of their contemporaries to be honored or revered?
  13. Graham leaving USC for Diana?
  14. Lol, you're not a little concerned that one of your coaches leaves with all that inside knowledge to go to the worst place possible... you're biggest rival?!?
  15. To you people making a big deal about a UT fan throwing liquid. I agree that shouldn't happen, but about 20 or so years ago I was at a LSU/Tulane game in Baton Rouge. The Tulane flag runner was bold enough to run the flag around the entire stadium during the game. When he got to the LSU side, there was a wave of trash being thrown from probably the bottom 20 rows or so at the flag runner as he ran around the entire LSU side (about 3/4ths of the stadium). I don't know how much of it actually hit the flag runner, but I'm sure the bottom couple of rows of LSU fans were completely covered in beer, nachos, popcorn, etc. I felt really bad for them, and the people that had to clean it up off the sidelines after the game.
  16. Benefit of punching yourself in the nads?
