  1. Good Lord, where they gonna put all that shoveled snow.
  2. Demeco, and Mike Tomlin are my favorites. Of course I might be a little biased about the Texans. Never have liked the Steelers much, but Mike Tomlin is a good coach. I’ve often wished he was in Dallas.
  3. I like the way you think. Another Dallas Detroit game would be a classic. Go Cowboys
  4. Here is an article on Coach Purcell. I Don’t know if you have seen this, but it pretty much tells it all. It is a little sketchy on him winning a state Championship as Head coach in Plano, but I think he did. Anyway, that big ole’ ring he wears, is for his AD ring of honor induction. He was DISD AD when Denton Ryan won its first State Championship. https://playersbio.com/ken-purcell-wikipedia-coaching-legends-age-family/
  5. It ain’t over yet boys. The fat lady hasn’t even started clearing her throat yet
  6. My heart is with Koff. But I fear Franklin is gonna be too tough. I sure hope I’m wrong. My family went to Church in Malakoff for several years when we lived in Athens, and I sure became fond of those boys. I enjoyed the rivalry between them and Teague for years.
  7. If Canadian can stop making mistakes, and catch some passes they can give Gunter a run for it. Obviously Canadian doesn’t have the team speed that Gunter has. We’ll see.
  8. Yes they did!! I Don’t understand why Daingerfield didn’t just keep punching the ball down their throats on that last drive before O/T They ran the ball well all night. Don’t throw until you absolutely have to. oh well, good year DF.
  9. Never thought for a second you were. You mentioned about East Texas, And I thought it was a good time to explain my knowledge of it. GoWildcats
  10. I lived in Newton for eleven years, and am familiar with the area. Newton County is a humongous county it is narrow but very long. If I’m not mistaken the School District is as big as the County. No growth at all in Newton Proper, but the county no doubt is growing some. The area is mostly Timber Company dominated, so not much growth possible. I believe there has been some talk of Newton dropping down. Most of the Residents commute to Beaumont, Orange, and Port Arthur. It was a good place to live. Good people.
  11. No facts, just an opinion that the team that wins will be the better team. Hence you get the best out of two to play. If you wanna be the best, then play the best.
  12. You are right on the description on Gunter. My Brother-in-Law and Sister-in Law lives in Anna. We go through Gunter a lot going to see them. A lot of empty space, one red light, and that’s about it. Oh, they do have a great ice cream shop there.Lol
  13. I understand the sentiment, but you’re gonna get the best whichever way it goes.
  14. Thanks for the response Pax. You raised a good point that I failed to consider in my thought process. I didn’t consider substitutes in the second half. However, I did suspect that the subs would be about as good as the starters, and fresh legs would be the difference.
  15. I do too. I have been trying to find stats on Gunters scoring by quarter. Can’t find any,, my less than amateur assessment on the Tigers is they beat teams by sheer numbers, and talent they have 56 on their roster. From my best count Gunter has enough quality players to field three separate units; offense, defense, and special teams without many; if any, players going both ways. They can substitute at Will without an appreciable loss of talent. In the playoffs I wanted to see their scoring by quarter. If my assessment is correct they wear teams down by the fourth quarter and score most of their points then. I’m not interested in the regular season, since they scored at will against those inferior teams. Pax, where are you when we need you.
