you guys are fun at parties i bet

Now this has to be extremely embarrassing.

Bless my heart is right. How about taking a look at this while you’re sitting on the sideline griping and complaining. ALTO YOUTH BASEBALL SOFTBALL Opening Day. Were you there? Did you help get the field and facilities ready? Did you donate time, equipment, or money? Are you volunteer coaching a team? More than one team? Do you serve on the AYBSA board? Take a look through this post on Facebook and you will see TRUE LOVERS OF ALL THINGS ALTO. You might recognize faces of those who CAN answer YES to those questions above, some current and past school board trustees. How many communities our size even still have their own local leagues played on the very fields their parents, grandparents, and even great grandparents played on? Most towns pick up/play in a larger town nearby. Not us. These folks have carried on the tradition of years past and I applaud every single one of them. Future through these pics sure does look bright. Always a good day to be a Yellowjacket! https://www.facebook.com/share/RPE2Cg8tQH3yRLu5/?

First off, this is not “fine and dandy.” Losing at Alto is not, nor has it ever been, “fine and dandy.” You are comparing apples and oranges. You obviously have an axe to grind and it shows because of what you feel are wrongdoings. Decisions are never easy nor taken lightly. Never have been. People do what they have to do with the information they have at the time. Period. I am not here to debate why those decisions were made. We have an excellent admin, coaching staff, and team at Alto. This was the worst football season in 47 years and we acknowledge that. But tearing down what these folks are doing for the sake of a vendetta makes no sense. Our people are working hard and just watch, success is on the horizon. It already started with the winning of ALL BOYS DISTRICT TRACK CHAMPIONSHIPS AT EVERY LEVEL, Middle School girls track champs, varsity girls second with all relays advancing to area, Runner up District UIL Academic Championship, and so much more. Middle School champs in football, boys basketball, and boys track. Our girls program is making leaps and bounds with the middle school winning basketball, softball, volleyball as well as track. Get out of the past and contribute to THE NOW. We are heading in the right direction.

1-I totally get that. I was just trying to say that too often coaches get hamstrung because of crap like that. 2-not naming names. 3-I agree 100%. If Saben were a heart surgeon I would want him every time. I guess my point is this, and I absolutely have no dog in this fight, HS hired a first time HFC. In less than a year they are, or someone, seems VERY UPSET. What happened to hiring someone, especially a rookie, and giving them time to grow into the role?

I believe this was Barry point of view

To the flat earthers out there…

@KirtFalcon @BarryLaverty @DannyZuco.....lol

welcome to the new Lk. Uniforms can only be blue and white. However, winning is optional

A great coach with 4 or 5 sons all college football prospects and a coaching staff with sons the same caliber as the head coaches.

Sabine quarterback Colt Sparks committed to Texas Tech today. He will play tight end for them.

If you wrote 5 lines of trolling nice job. If you actually believe black uniforms are a solid reason to be on your 4th head coach in 5 years, you're part of the reason this is a bad job.

So if LK hires a coach that owns a bunch of blue polos then y'all will be as good as Carthage? Is that how that works?

If there’s ever been anyone that we should be helping, it’s Israel.

A position coach in 6A is a better football job than the AD of LK.

Hard work, discipline, mental and physical toughness, selflessness and doing the little things right are more important than any offense or defense you run. Whoever does those things whatever they choose to run will work.

We all knew that was you bud

Do we stop at gun crimes? If my kid gets a minor in possession, do I get a separate fine? If my kid gets in a fight at school, do I go to jail? I agree that the parents should have done more, but to make them criminally liable for murders they did not commit is idiotic at best, and down right evil at worst.

Didn't post to hear people's Philosophy of Basketball vs Football, just wondering who is applying for the job?!

I am going to have to agree with this. When did "personal responsibility" become "bad".......Were they bad parents, possibly, should they have locked up their guns, yes. Do you really know if your child is having mental problems or if they are going through a teenage phase of different behaviors......I saw my daughters go through all types of phases while they were teenagers. The best I could do was talk to them, love them, but I still had to let them make their choices, good or bad.......And if they had done something "lawbreaking" I could go to jail for them......This is what is happening because we DON'T punish the REAL CRIMINALS in our country.....weak bails, no deportations......all leads to lawyers going after everyone, but those intent on doing "bad things" to others......SMH

Congrats to Mavchamp for winning the group.....good calls.

In a true free-market economy, greedflation is kept in check by competition. There is always someone who will sell their product for cheaper, and will force others to come down close to that level to remain competitive. We have not been a true free-market economy for many years. Our government, especially when run by democrats, has meddled in business too much, and do not allow for true capitalism. Remember what they did in 2020. They shut down your mom and pop stores and allowed the big box stores to stay open. They eliminated competition, which lead to these larger corporations being able to gain more of a hold over the market. The government's job is to make sure that companies don't hold a monopoly over business. But they have their fingers in too many areas of our economy. As with many other things, they have overstepped their boundaries in the market. I will 100% agree that this is not solely on the Biden administration, as the federal government has been doing this to us for a century.

IF UCONN wins, then I capture the Political Forum Title, If Purdue does, then it is the @BarryLaverty who's on top. Pick your poison.......

Whole lot of horse hockey

@KirtFalcon eclipse after party for the third one he saw.....

Has France ever really fought one since the Middle Ages? Does surrendering at the first shot count as fighting? Asking for a friend.......

The one before it was better ....

Did @KirtFalcon enjoy it?

I see I still have Lions vote for 2024

I haven’t had to buy shoes in over 15 years…August is great!

August is always the best time of year(right next to Christmas). You show up and get shirts and shoes and sweats and hats. Sometimes you even get rain gear. Sometimes its too little and your boss says "lose weight". Sometimes you get kid's workout clothes...

Everything Trump did was legal and above board .... the banks loved doing business with him, they made millions of dollars off the loans with him, nobody was harmed, testimony after testimony exhortation Trump .... yet the corrupt judge and prosecutor ignored the truth .... it was mearly a political hit job against Trump and his election campaign ....

If you support the transgender movement, then I’m curious what it is you’re celebrating on Easter. You can’t support the things that go against Jesus, then claim to follow Jesus. It doesn’t work that way.

Exactly. Want to help Israel? Quit giving $ to Iran and other terrorist countries.

Laser timed at 10.08 Hand held had him at 10.17!!!! Only a sophomore!!!!

Boy, go on. White Oak and football fast ain't ever been in the same sentence together. So, yall ain't hitting top speed within 100 meters? Exactly how yall training them then? Got em holding on to the back of the pick up truck with it on cruise control at 20 mph and anybody that don't fall down gets a spot in that 20 mph club? #FullSpeedSplat

I have a few very wealthy relatives ... 30- 50 million dollar wealthy .... my net worth is between 2-3 million .... my house and land is worth at least 1.5 million ....

I had that when it came out. The NFL Football game was the best. The plays that you could call on offense, and the alignments that your could call on defense were great compared to others. You weren't stuck with just one player that you could control, because all you had to do was press the number of the player and it would switch the control to that player. It was comparable to Tecmo Bowl and won many awards when it came out. Look at the hand controller in the deck, and you can see the numbers. They had a plastic sleeve go over the keypad, but you didn't need it. The Major League Baseball game was the same. You could change which fielder that you controlled. I could actually play the baseball game against myself. Of course my right hand always beat my left hand since I'm right handed. For Sports Games, Intellivision blew away Magnavox Odyssey, Atari, or Colecovision. All four were better than any computer at the time.

Brian Mauk was named the new football HC and AD tonight.

Sorry Barry but the only person whose "button are being pushed" are yours!! Your TDS is so bad you have lost what little common sense you ever had. Truly a sad situation.

What a bunch of morons….the writer of the article and the demo puppet that linked it….

Right. Like Joe Rogan took "horse dewormer." Trump's calling for a "bloodbath." "There were fine people on both sides." I could go on and on and on repeating your idiotic fairy tales.

I don't think there are many readers on ol smoaky.com

The biggest thing with Tyson is to find out who they are doing private label for. HEB? Brookshires? I'm sure there are a few.
