  1. If Westlake somehow gets past New Braunfels, it's not fair that the winner of the SB v Taft game gets an extra day to prepare. True, Westlake had an extra day to prepare vs New Braunfels, I can assure you that that was unavoidable.
  2. Another awesomely astounding effort. Thanks so very much, as always! Again, I am not sure whether our beloved Chaps will make state in D1, but if they do, I'm sure glad they don't have to play Guyer. I think Guyer is the best team in the state.
  3. I don't know about y'all, but it's a semi-miracle that I'm even here.
  4. Agreed. Don’t think for a moment that he was the only guy who climbed that pile.
  5. Fair point. There is a surprisingly deep amount of research done on the subject, so we mostly referenced studies and conducted focus groups. I'm still friends w some of the parents who lost children. They have made the best of it, and even started really great foundations, but it never ends for them, especially as their (former) child's friends reach new milestones in their lives.
  6. We once created videos for Texas Parks & Wildlife Department warning people about the dangers of open-water swimming. We did research and found out that teenagers don't do dangerous stuff 'cause they think they are invincible. They do it primarily because of peer pressure. They don't want to be the one who wasn't brave enough. The videos were interviews w families and young people who lost loved ones due to drowning. That's a club you don't want to be a member of.
  7. Oh, yeah, forgot to give you a well-deserved shout-out for calling the New Braunfels upset over Reagan, as NB was without their starting QB!!!
  8. Helobious, what do you think of San Benito/Taft? @956 Worldwide says we may see an upset here. Do you think either can give our Chaps a good game, if we can somehow get past New Braunfels?
  9. "Men," he began his address to the officers, measuring his pauses carefully. "You're American officers. The officers of no other country in the world can make that statement. Think about it." Colonel Cargill, Catch 22
  10. Actually, it is in one respect. He brought a tight end from Alabama who already had a reputation for dropping balls.
  11. Genius. Thanks for providing me material for a fun Photoshop creation.
  12. I was there. Greathouse is an insane talent. Do you think our QB's lack of mobility will catch up w us?
  13. OMG. Just watched it. Thanks so much. You TOTALLY hit on what their problem is now. Motormidget can't shut his mouth! He talks to his team exactly like he talks at press conferences!!! He provides TOO much information, which causes confusion and paralysis. I can hear the players afterwards: "Wait. Did he say we need to attack on punt returns?" "No, he said we need to maintain our toughness, control the edge, fight through double-teams, and attack downhill!" "No, he said we need to get more push and regain momentum. That's what it was." LOL!!!!!
  14. Can’t wait to watch it. At the Chaps game right. Another inspirational performance by our undermanned, undersized team.
  15. At least Sam has had really stable, consistent and superlative coaching throughout his college and pro career.
  16. I thought it was yesterday. Maybe they refenced the Bama game and tied it to his interest in beating his former team. I sure hope so!
  17. Saw a report on YouTube from someone who is in town covering the game. He said Patterson was the last one in the Texas facility staying late to scheme against his old team.
  18. Just amazing work. Well done, my talented friend. I would love to see a Katy/Denton Guyer matchup and I'd take Guyer. I might pick Guyer over Texas at this point.
  19. Towards the end of the Second World War, the English got some intelligence on how Hitler made a daily walk at his mountain home. After much planning, they decided not to carry out the plan. The thinking was that since he was so incompetent, it was better to keep him in place, leading the country to ruin.
  20. Just like to see Westlake players succeed and it's often hard to be a star in your hometown. Sometimes it works against you.
