  1. When are the color changes projected to happen?
  2. I don't care what position Ja’Quinden Jackson wants to play. That kid is one to get in the program and figure out where he fits and let him excel. This Duncanville - North Shore match up will have a staggering amount of talent all over the field and a lot of that talent is in the Junior and Sophomore classes.
  3. Just got home from Southlake - Duncanville. A few observations: Mickens - Played exclusively at WR for at least the 2nd game in a row. I have seen Southlake several times this year and he has played very little safety. Slot corner when he has played on defense but primarily has played WR. Talk on the Southake side is that he has a bit of a shoulder ding but hard to evaluate as a DB since he barely played there Thompson the 2020 safety from Duncanville is a 17 year old grown ass man. Looked to be about 6'2" and 210. Plays primarily near the LOS as almost a LB. Damn near killed the Southlake RB TJ McDaniel {pretty decent HS RB going to SMU} in the 1st half. I love HS stars who cover kicks and he ran down on every Duncanville kickoff. Jackson the 2020 QB for Duncanville is a guy you want to have the ball in his hands. The few times Southlake got Duncanville behind the sticks everybody in the building knew he would make a play. He really did a good job of not forcing throws when Southlake covered receivers. Several times he made throws on the run after breaking the pocket. Southlake was so concerned about him running they dropped coverage when he left the pocket and left receivers wide open down the field. He would be an ideal QB prospect if we want to continue the Ohio Sate power run game offense As noted above this was the 1st time this year Southlake played somebody with elite athletes. And Duncanville has them in waves. Southlake is the epitome of the maxed out Texas high school kids. They ran into an athletic well coached buzz saw today and got destroyed.
  4. That is Derrick Johnson level high school film on defense.
  5. i did not get to pay close attention to team news this past week but how was Gary Johnson eligible to play in the 1st half after being ejected for targeting in the 1st half last week?
  6. Really impressed with how well schooled those Hawaii kids are in all aspects of the game. =Two earned runs in the 5 games of the tournament. That kid that pitched today threw hard enough but his command was superb. =Every at bat their kids competed. When most LLWS teams have one of their 4 foot 10, 87 pound kids at the plate you can pretty well assume they are overmatched and a strikeout will come quickly. Hawaii did not donate a single at bat all day today. Every kid that went to the plate had aggressive swings. =Tremendous defense for the entire tournament. Routine plays really were routine. Tough plays were made to look a lot easier than they were =They knew they were good but were not arrogant about it. It is easy to enjoy what you are doing when you are really good at it but they played the game with smiles on their faces even during tight moments/games Congrats on a well earned title!!
  7. "Steven “Steveyj” Javaruski, one of the gamers, told the Los Angeles Times that the shooter was a competitor in the tournament who lost. Javaruski said he saw the shooter kill two or three people before shooting himself."
  8. Any news on when season 3 of Last Kingdom will be released?
  9. If Wilson wants to stick with a school that was sold to him by a lying ass, wife beating assistant coach and a head coach with a habit of covering up anti-social, criminal behavior at every school he works at, then he can live with his shitty choice.
  10. Yes what the Knights accomplished this year was unprecedented, but they must have a really empty feeling right now.
  11. There is no reason a pitcher ever needs to throw a pitch in the strike zone to Odor. Absolutely no plate discipline.3 breaking balls in the dirt and he strikes out. I would much rather see IKF at the plate in a big situation.
  12. I like the idea of a relentless, puck possession plan of attack. It will be interesting to see what direction they go on assistant coaches.
  13. man Claudio has just been bad this year
  14. If the price to bring in Earl Thomas is in fact a 2 and a 4 then I can definitely see a trade down to grab extra picks coming.
  15. Clearly they are absolutely pumped to be there
  16. Always gets a little dusty when they come out of communications black out no matter how many times I have seen it
  17. The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors - James D. Hornfischer John Adams - David McCullough
  18. I wonder who the sources are for the scenes inside the Paterno house. It would not seem that any of the members of that inner circle would be motivated to give a factual account that makes their husband/dad/friend/client come across as a callous monster.

    Pete Rose

    I have always wondered what Ray Fosse thinks of Pete Rose. I am sure he says the right things publicly but he has reason to have real life hatred for that guy.
  21. For years the talk was the land Texas Stadium stood on was super valuable for all types of development. Since the stadium was torn down absolutely nothing has gone in on that property.
  22. The team used to stay at the Reunion Hyatt the night before the ousux game. They left a copy of the Wall Street Journal outside the rooms. Plenty of players were pissed when they could not find the sports section.
  23. Is Hudson expected to be ready for the start of the season?
  24. What is your Champion's dinner the following year?
