Older people use quotes for emphasis. Younger people use them for sarcasm. Which has definitely never led to any intergenerational mixups in meaning.

Maybe I don’t “know what’s going on in the news” and the network bigwigs will send old Bennet and his negative “Q Rating” on a slow boat to Shanghai.

Anyone going to Duncanville vs South Oak Cliff tonight?

It should be a hell of a game.

hell is correct.  Metal bleachers approaching surface of the sun temps is a non-starter. But if I can find a stream I will likely watch a lot of it. 

[Thiefery 4995]

i'll be heading to the Atascacita vs Dickinson game tonight.  Gonna be how good Hibble is and look at the OL kid UT offered on Dickinson.

McKinney beat Longview last night  23-21.

 

I hope Beau Vine didn't retire.

I watched this game. Longview killed themselves with so many procedure penalties and the fact they have a not so good QB. That defense is elite - the Lobos will be fine. 

What streams are going on tonight? I’m in PA and HS football here sucks.

If you have no other options, Rockwall always streams their two teams for free

Argyle @ Melissa is streaming on WFAA.

I’m trying to f’ing the link for Parish Episcopal @ Aledo.

It’s not free but here’s plenty to watch.

SA Vets beat Harlendale easily but Peoples didn’t play. Guess he was banged up from the scrimmage last week. Play SA Taft next week.


I think am going to go see Seguin vs Alamo Heights tonight.

I always liked Harlandale. Most consistent inner city program in SA by far and they usually somewhat hold their own against superior teams. 
 

Michael Terry is a player to watch for AH. Dude can ball.

Good on that community. That place is nicer than many small colleges and they will host a lot of playoff games in that stadium, for a lot of NE DFW teams into the future decades. Let alone a “jewel” for their own school to be proud of.

Hook’em!!!

We are going to watch Euless Trinity vs Prosper.  

Supposed to be on NFHS,  but if you want to check it out it's usually better on Trinity Sports Network.  

[BurntOrange&White 39930]

Is that on streaming website they used a lot during Covid still a thing? It was like $10 for like all HS games

NFHS is $12 if you go monthly.  The feeds are hit and miss. 

Probably worth $12 to try it out,  lots of HS football on it.

I think Cuero vs El Campo will be here. Might just run over there myself

 

[MonkeyDoughnut 10229]

Houston/San Antonio area... this has free games... although couple games they are currently having video issues (inc. Atascocita v Dickinson)

 

[AbeFroman 2154]

KJ Lacey is on espn right now.  Quick feet, really good arm.  Two good teams playing

[AbeFroman 2154]

Argyle vs Melissa

 

[The Ace of Aces 5175]

Melissa is absolutely dominating Argyle from halfway through the first to halftime - they’re bigger, faster and stronger. 22-7 at halftime. That said Argyle has a very good QB and not good WRs - several perfect passes not caught  

Melissa has a ~250 lb DE that’s scored 2 rushing TDs (with cuts and stuff arms!) and was the punter, too.

DK Abrams 

[cafe society 2860]

Our freshman OL from Melissa, Trevor Goosby, has a little brother - class of 2026 -  who is a WR for Melissa.  Even though he is more known for being a hoops prospect, Austin Goosby made a tremendous catch with the Argyle defender draped all over him.

Make it 3 TDs for the big boy DE DK Abrams. It’s an asskicking in Melissa - 36-7 midway through the 3rd.

Looks like the Denison Yellowjackets will win their 11th straight Battle of the Ax against the arch rival Sherman Bearcats.  35-0 at the start of the fourth quarter.  This was the 125th playing of the game making it the oldest high school rivalry in the nation.  It was also the hottest on record with temps at 104 at kickoff.

 

edited to add:  Final Denison 42 Sherman 0.  Temp down to 92.

So when does Allen finally do what’s right for the students and build another high school? Them stacking the deck ain’t working for them anymore anyways.

As a born and bred north Texan, if you had said Prosper is playing Trinity to me 30 years ago I would have laughed and changed the subject to something not batshit crazy.

For those that aren't aware, not that long ago Prosper was just a sleepy farming community without many working farms while Trinity was in Euless near DFW airport.

Just in case any of you were planning on doing any exhaustive research into the Austin High Football team I can save you the trouble.

They won't be very good again this year. 4 wins is ceiling. (Like stars line up right and no injuries and lots of breaks go their way)

1st string is decent but falls off a cliff after that. Offense has no real threats and defense will be on field for like 80% of game.

That will be $9.95

Stony Point 53 
Austin High 0

Maybe Austin High won't be as shitty as they were last year? 

 

[Fudbelty 2787]

Parish wasn’t taking too kindly to the ass kicking. Aledo took a touchback on opening kick off then first play was a 75 yard swing pass for a td. Parish had a decent td drive. Aledo followed with a 4 play td drive. Then had a pick six on the next drive. 21-7 good guys with 6+ minutes still in first. Parish never got within 2 tds again.

Let's not overlook the Anderson Trojans shellacking the McCallum Knights 42-0 in the Taco Shack Bowl last night.  Texas (baseball) signee Ed Small was the key player for the Trojans in their victory.

Anderson scores early and often, runs away with 42-0 Taco Shack Bowl win over McCallum

CSB, Harlandale's former AD of 20ish years, retired 6 or 7 years ago, was head coach in Weslaco for a couple of years in the 90s. My dad was on his coaching staff and our families are still pretty close. So I've always had a soft spot for Harlandale.

Watched my beloved Chaps on the stream. I’m feel how Clemson fans must have felt for the last two years hoping DJ Uiagalelei would finally put it all together. Our QB, God bless him, has the size and arm but something is missing. You hope after the off-season, he somehow would come back as this bastion of skill and confidence. And then you see the him do the exact same things, like panic, bail on the pocket, throw balls to nowhere, etc. Sigh. 

We have a great little RB, but we run that “you know the QB is never keeping the ball” scheme so the defense doesn’t even bother worrying about the QB keeper, about it, lulz.

[UpperWestside 6160]

I had free time last night so I decided to watch my high school on their YouTube channel. Lampasas was playing Elgin. Won the game by knocking away a potential tying TD pass as time expired. Lampasas will never, and thank God for this, waste money on one of these McMansion stadiums. They’re playing on the same grass field they’ve had since FDR’s first term in office. Grass fields are just more fun to play on. Out of nowhere in the 3rd quarter some of the sprinklers went off. I had to laugh a little bit at that considering the flak they have caught for watering the field during the mega drought down there. It still looked pretty dead to me, but I guess that’s to be expected playing football games on the surface of the sun.

Yes. In the late 70's my little brother took his first coaching job in Prosper. We visited him and the area was how you described it. All the "small farm and ranch towns" north of Dallas have been growing for years.

I remember the days when Mansfield was out in the country and was a one school town. There used to be a separation of the two cities b/t Dallas and FW. No more, as it’s concrete all the way.

Watch too (rooting for the other guys)... Hoping just 1st game jitters for Chaps, but they look like they could struggle this year. Like said QB isn't a threat and if you focus on Keyser they stall out quickly. Keyser is currently their only offense.

For Ridge Point...well won't matter, Atascocita and North Shore will block their path again, although they may actually fall to DII this year or next due to a new HS that opened.

[msucolt45 4055]

If you’re watching the HS football game on ESPN, the jerseys worn by St Francis (white team) would not be allowed by the TXHS Football or the NCAA, as the numbers don’t contrast enough for the color of jersey. If it weren’t for close-up shots on tv, you wouldn’t be able to make out their numbers.
