  1. Lampasas 42-Lorena 35. Lorena's last two drives ended in endzone INT's with the last one coming as time expired. Listening to the DCTF broadcast team, they said their site had named Lampasas coach Troy Rogers as the 4A mid-season coach of the year. Pretty cool for him to get that acknowledgement I think considering he graduated 31 seniors last year and lost his best player to a transfer to a school in California. Nice to see the hometown guy do well. Easily the best coach in Lampasas history with this being his greatest coaching performance in having almost an entirely new team at 6-0.
  2. Fun half that ends tied at 28. Defense has been optional at best for the Badgers and Leopards. Lorena is better at sustained drives out of the two.
  3. Lampasas goes three and out. Lorena turnover on downs and then Lampasas with a 73 yard TD pass from Roberts to Roberts (cousin) on the 3rd play of that drive.
  4. Lorena scores again. 5 and a half minutes gone and 28 points so far on the board. Pretty fun game to watch so far.
  5. Lorena scores and Lampasas gets the ball back. 1st play of the 2nd drive was a 73 yard TD run.
  6. Lampasas playing a Thursday night game against Lorena on the DCTX channel. The game is free apparently. The Badgers have three sophomores on the offensive line that are really good. Badgers scored on a 58 yard TD run on the first play from scrimmage.
  7. Should she choose to she should just say “78 million Americans asked for this so enjoy finding out.” Of course she would never say that, but she would be well within her rights to do so. This fight will eventually come down to how many young people are okay with what is transpiring. That’s pretty much how it goes when rebelling against fascism. What and when will the breaking point happen on a movement that always collapses upon itself. Young people will either be happy with the crumbs they get or they’ll go get their pitchforks. I am not looking towards 60+ year old politicians to step up at the moment to fix this.
  8. I think these are all interesting points to make. I look forward to hopefully being around long enough to read the books written about this era of America. Hopefully they are written by authors and historians not from here. I would rather read the viewpoints of people from other countries once this is done.
  9. I recall Ogden trying his cross-over and the defender was not going for it, at all. The Blackcats had some really good athletes that played well together. The LaVega team the next year with Kinsey was even more athletic. The most athletic 3A team I ever watched there was the 97 Madison group that had been in the 4A Final the year before against Rayford Young and Pampa. I wound up being friends with several guys from that Madison team and used to play pickup games with them in South Dallas. Really cool people from Sunny South Dallas.
  10. He is attempting to stop. That was his decision. I told him that’s a good decision to make, but it’ll be difficult for a good while since he was at the point of having the shakes when he wasn’t drinking. I suggested he visit a doctor and also attempt to get some medication for his off the charts anxiety.
  11. Try that in Mabank. Seriously please do.
  12. Both of you arguing over who makes more money is embarrassing. One of you I regularly agree with on political positions and one of you I do not. Both of you are too busy trying to stroke your ego to even be aware enough to realize how silly it is to have this argument . NO ONE CARES how much money you make. Just ridiculous to read this stuff on here. Having money does not make you a better person nor does it make you more intelligent apparently. I could say so much more on this topic, but I am tired and have to be up early.
  13. My favorite writer. That more of you do not subscribe to Defector is a shame. Maybe st f his writing is on there and it’s awesome.
  14. I still cannot watch this show again. It was amazing and among the handful of best shows I have ever watched, but it takes quite a bit out of you.
  15. It might be suspension of disbelief. One film I can recall that being the case is my favorite Christmas movie, Christmas Vacation. Clark works in the city, lives in the suburbs and then he’s in the Rockies looking for a Christmas tree.
  16. I don't have any gigantic fish to post here, but I do love to fish. If any of y'all ever stop through Oahu and want a totally relaxing day of shore fishing, there's a spot I go to at Waimanalo Beach. I swim my line out about a 100 yards or so and drop it with 3-5 oz. triangle sinker. I am a patient fisherman so I just put some squid or cut bait on the line and enjoy the day and usually bring a book to read until I hear the line start to go out quickly.
  17. I long ago reached the point where I thought that the Democrats should just say the heck with it all and shut it down. Does TFG want this? You bet. He'll claim a win either way and his cult will lap that up as the truth. He wants to cut the federal workforce even more and consolidate his grip on power. He was going to do this at some point even if they had agreed on a budget. It's like Chamberlain saying he secured "Peace for our time." You CANNOT trust a single thing TFG says. His word is as meaningless as anything Hitler ever agreed to. Torch it and let everything go straight in the toilet and hang this around the people who wanted this as our government.
  18. I just want to add that of all of the ridiculous praise heaped on this troll that the absolute last thing I could've thought would happen is PAUL FINEBAUM wanting to run for the senate because of this death. Give me the shovel and I'd gladly sideswipe his gigantic dumbo-sized ears. This timeline is just, to borrow a word from Anthony McAuliffe, NUTS in a go to hell kind of way.
  19. I remember watching his father years ago at the state tournament. My first impression of his dad was that he wasn’t very athletic and had zero business playing high major basketball after watching him face plant against Mexia if I remember correctly. He just didn’t have the athleticism to succeed unless it was against guys that would wind up playing in the Sun Belt. Hopefully for the Horns his son turns out far better than his father. Pretty low bar, but the farther the fruit falls from the tree on this one the better for Miller and Co.
  20. Used to work right down the street. The 35 mile drive to work was easily the most beautiful one I have ever had.
  21. And then call it in the day it is finished.
  22. I felt like the living situation was pretty easy to understand, especially in 2025 in America. There was some definite middle finger going towards the government there with what his character was doing.
  23. I will make this brief because I am in agreement with your words wholeheartedly. I think it might be good for us to have a bit of organization in trying to stand up to fascism. Talking about it here won’t do much to reverse already crossing the fascism rubicon. I think it would in general be good to be able to network and help folks when they need it until we get to the other side of this. They will. Guaranteed. TFG’s hold on them is strong.
