There is someone who downvotes every post in softball threads. The rant is loaded with mentally ill people I wouldn’t bother trying to solve the crime.

The grinding of teeth over someone downvoting comments is hilarious. Why care about downvotes? Probably someone is doing that just to see the reaction and is laughing at all of us.

I'm guessing of this board has rehired Beth back after tonight...

My friends in B/CS said they got hammered with bad weather last night.

I believe I've said this before, but when Griner was a senior in HS (Aldine Nimitz), her team was in our holiday girls basketball tournament in Bryan/College Station. I would run the scoreboard for many of the games at A&M Consolidated and they were playing at our gym on the 2nd day.

I saw Griner, dressed in uniform, walk into our gym with the father and both went to sit in the bleachers across from me. The rest of the team had not arrived yet.

About 15 minutes later, the team dressed in street clothes, walked into the gym and went straight to to the locker room to change. Griner didn't leave her seat.

Right before the current game was finished, Griner went into the hallway where the team was waiting for the current game to finish.

After the game, Griner and her father, left the gym still dressed in uniform, while the team went back to the dressing room to change back into street clothes. I went to the door out of curiosity and saw them get in a personal vehicle while the rest of the team got on a school bus.

The next day, the championship was at Bryan HS, and I went over to watch since our girls were playing them in that game. When I arrived at the parking lot, I saw them getting out of their personal vehicle and the same thing happened as the day before.

It always struck me as really weird to see that because 100% of my experiences as an athlete and coach in public schools had everyone riding the bus to and from the games.

WARNING

I10 will be closed in both directions a mile south of the I10/US69 north interchange from Friday night to Monday morning.

This will be a huge clusterfark getting through. If you can exit north on US69, you can go to SH105 & go west all the way to Navasota, then take SH6 north to BCS.

Or exit at SH62/73 (Bridge City) and turn left. Go 5 miles and turn right at SH87/73. Take SH73 all the way to I10 in Winnie. Drawback is the construction at the Rainbow Bridge... wouldn't advise driving an RV through there right now.

Being on the west coast, I figured British Columbia would be ultra liberal just like California, Oregon, and Seattle. I'm surprised that the split is almost even.

I alsi coached football & head girls basketball, while head softball coach from 1987-1995 in Louisiana,. Coached softball only in Texas until 2012 when I became a principal. Retired from public schools in 2017 & coached softball in private schools until 2023.

I'm probably older than you. Lol

Where did you coach at? Coming from a retired coach too...

Is this the Savannah Bananas?

I was there in 2019, it's an awesome wonder of nature
