End of 3

alvarado 56

Carter Riverside 0

Ft Worth might have the worst teams in any major city in Texas.  

Was that way when I went to TCU and hasn't changed in decades.

Also 4A
Halftime
Decatur Eagles 35
Castleberry Fightin Fuds 7

Decatur announcers are asshats complaining that the refs are calling the game one sided for CHS.

Those Decatur honks doing their broadcast are absolutely horrible. Insufferable cunts.


Springtown Porky’s 48

I've thought about this for years.  I graduated from Paschal in 1978.  We were so-so in football at the time, but we were a state power in basketball and good in baseball.  As you Fort Worth folks know, PHS has been one of the most dreadful football programs in the upper divisions for decades, beginning I believe in the 1980s.  But for several years, Arlington Heights, Southwest and Eastern Hills fielded some good - not great, but good - teams that regularly sent players to play football on scholarship for good college programs.  Everyone knows that when the suburban schools open up it usually preordains a slow death for "inner city" schools.  But Fort Worth struggled in football even as they were more than competitive in basketball and baseball.  But it feels like there was more to it than simply suburban schools popping up.  What it is/was, I honestly don't know.

speaking of Paschal… Carter Riverside side basically empty on giant home side so we googled “largest crowd ever” @ Farrington Field….. almost 25k 1944 matchup Paschal and FW Northside…. times have def changed!  Fun fact of the nite.

North Crowley is actually in Fort Worth and not Crowley and they just won state last year. Of course, they're not FWISD though, so maybe they don't really count.

Fort Worth has always had to many schools. The talent is spread out to much. The lower performing schools are the areas that have real talent, but as a parent why send your kids to Dunbar or Wyatt when you can easily send that same kid to North Crowley, Martin or Aledo. I could name 25 D1 athletes in the last 10-15 years who went to FWISD middle schools but went to high school outside of the district. Several schools need to close or combine but they won’t/can’t due to neighborhood issues or communities being too prideful. 
 

North Crowley is basically a Fort Worth ISD team. Majority of those kids are FWISD kids or their parents were former FWISD students and athletes. Closing the eastside projects and several apartments on the Southside and pushing those families to new housing in the southwest side also played a big role in North Crowley taking off.
