Are the Eastex lakes begining to return to their pre-drought levels with the recent rains?? In particular Lake O' The Pines and Lake Tyler?? I remember the sad pictures awhile ago of those lakes almost looking like a stock tank.

One for the Old Timers.........Tiki Burger in Tyler yeeeeearssssss ago!!

Troup: 2000 Population-1,949 Arp: " "-(est) 901 Tyler Morning Telegraph reported an overflow crowd of about 5,000. Just where did they come from???:hmmm:

This is the article from the Findlay Newspaper on the game: http://www.thecourier.com/templates/sports...orts.asp#story3 Great To See What The Other Half Says!!!:whome:

Yes I remember several mud-holes stomped at the hands of the Roughnecks.One in particular courtesy of a little 'ole QB by the name of Mike Barber!!:)

Any old Tiger fans remember the '73 Troup/WO game?? For the 19A Championship.Troup wins 12-7.Bet there's still some old Roughneck fans that feel that they got jobbed!! Sorry 'Necks,the clock HAD expired!!:P

Man!! Read today's (Wednesday 23rd) Tyler paper and saw the article on the drug sting in Troup!! Can any Troupites tell me if the climate of corruption was as bad as the paper made it out to be??

What is the nearest City/Town?? How is it coming along,what with the drought and all??

:mad:I think that this is just a sypmtom of the systematic breakdown of civility and manners across the board in today's "Yo,I'm the man" culture.How many line-breakers at amusement parks have you witnessed?? The rude comments from a group of teen-agers at the mall?? Or my fave pet peeve the car stereo system you can hear and feel from 10 blocks away,and at all hours of the day or night???Sometimes I can't help but laugh,a $300 car with a $5000 stereo sytem and $2000 worth of spinning rims!! Gotta' love those set of priorities!!

Larry Csonka??

Man!! Looking at the picture in Sunday's Tyler Paper seems that the lake is slowly going Bye-Bye!!

I'm retired from the AF now Hurdler,but I had 2 specialties.I started out as a Fuels Specialist(refueling jets) and then cross-trained into Weather.

:smile2:What made it worse Hurdler was we were required to drink 2 glasses of that swill at each meal!! YAK!! Imagine the stress of Basic Training and having to start the day with that!! I treated it like taking awful medicine!! Held my nose and gulped it down as fast as I could!!

How long would you take"Chef" Gordon Ramsey's mouth before you deposited several of his teeth down his throat???

1.Fly By Night 2.Xanadu 3.Madrigal 4.Mission 5.La Villa Strangiato

The water in the Metroplex is pretty bad,but for the worst I've ever tasted would have to be San Antonio.Specifically Lackland AFB!!:tongue:

Thanx for the replies!!

Just finished reading "Friday Night Lights" for the umpteenth time. I was wondering if any Marshal fans can tell me what became of Odell Beckham?? The book had him as a lock for a Div.1 schollie.

I didn't see if this had been discussed in the forums or not.What are your opinions on this.Dave Flores of the San Antonio Express said it best for me when he said a 4th place team does not deserve a play-off berth.If you can go the paper's web-site and check it out. It's a good read.

OOPS!! Gotta' watch that ENTER button!!:wacko: Coach b is the answer Kenneth Hall??

hooks and mount pleasant next question: what texan holds 5 state records, that are also national records, and what are they?

Went to NFL.com and researched the coaches bios and all I could find was Mike Nolan of San Fran,all that was written was he was a grad assisant for Oregon no specific mention of playing there and Mora of Atl. same there.:hmmm:

:happy65: AHA!!! I got y'all with my trick question!! Forrest Gregg played one season,1971,with the Cowboys and was inducted into the Hof in 1977!! Bob Lilly was inducted in 1980.Therefore the 1st Cowboys' player inducted into the HOF was Forrest Gregg!!:P

In 1973 Troup,John Tyler and Big Sandy won their respective Football State Championships.What were the other 2 teams,had they won,would have had all state champions within a 65 mile radius of one another???

SB XII Dallas/Denver Superdome New orleans 1978?? If I'm correct here is my question: Who was the first Cowboys' player inducted into the Pro Football Hall Of Fame??
