The biggest debate had better be whether someone wants pecan or pumpkin pie; a dilemma to which the answer is , "both."
Our crew does a pretty good job of not bringing it up, knowing there's a broad range of beliefs. That and a couple of us will go nuclear in about 3 seconds, and I'll do it on either side of an issue. Just don't fucking go there. Let's get drunk and watch football...
For all the shots people take at Lubbock, it's fucking Paris or Rome compared to Portales. LOL. It's difficult to put it into words, yet & still; those folks don't deserve that fucker at their school.
It's also dumb that they say the Brazos watershed extends into New Mexico for that dirt that runs down the Blackwater Draw from the Land of Enchantment. In my rewritten geography book, the Brazos is the longest river contained in the State of Texas.
The number of times I have seen "old-man/ glory days" bets over high school games has to be triple digits. As a kid I always thought those were "movers & shakers" of their respective towns; but I figured out later it was usually just the biggest shit talkers- and the bet was the way to get them to STFU.
Lotsa bets made around the sale barns, probably because the brain was already in that mode- " and there's that sumbitch from Archer City...we need a wager this Friday!"
This thread is entertaining, but the lagniappe is people dealing with absolutes with one of the best posters on the board sharing his experience with alcoholism, as if he just read a pamphlet about the conditions and recovery.
Unusual for West Plains in that they play Canyon High at WT's field with a possibility of playing another CISD school in Randall, should they both win.
Lotsa players knowin each other in those matchups.
If you were watching it, it's even worse.
Zebras stopped the game with 10 people on the field for the offense and defense was confused( not a violation.)
Zebras blew the whistle when the QB caused the defense to jump and nobody was remotely close to the QB.
Zebras called back a TD because of an inadvertent grazing of a facemask by an OL.
Oh...that was just when KC had the ball.
I figured when they threw it on 3rd and 1, that they absolutely intended to go for it on 4th.
If there was any mistake by Indy in the 1st half, it was that ever so slight "cuteness."
Little schools, BIG matchups this week with Ganado & Muenster defending their State Titles. Albany won at JerryWorld in '22 & '23, while Refugio won it all in 2019 with a Runner Up spot in '22.
