Um..... i was carrying my 6 year old daughter. My wife had our 9 year old son. The EE fans started to yell at a group of people in Spanish, so I have no idea what was said. The victim in this case, kept walking and suddenly a rock landed by him. I knew something was about to happen, my first and only worry was to get my family to my car. I did not have my cell phone to call the police. I took my wife and kids to the car, retrieved my cell phone and returned. Someone had already called the police. So yes you *******, I stood there and did nothing. Geeez. I fought in two wars and your questioning my bravery, it's because of people like me that you can type idiotic stamps at on this board. Grow up!! Thank you for your service. I served as well for 22 years. I only missed Grenada, Panama, and Haiti. I was in everything else. No need to get so testy here. so because of YOU we get to be on this board? ***** please! 6 years US Army, E-E grad, BS in Mathematics, working on grad school in Engineering, there are lots of veterans who we need to thank , not just you lol sorry if some fans talking in spanish threw rocks at you. as a coach, i have had rocks thrown form spanish speakers, english speakers and some i didnt even understand. We as veterans have protected our country and dont just have ONE person to thank.

Look, I'm not mad at anyone, but on page two "sotex" pretty much says, "and you stood there and did nothing?" Pretty much saying I just watched this poor sole get his but kicked and enjoyed it. I think I did what any ordinary person would have done in my shoes. This was not meant to become an issue, but when someone, who hides behind a screen name questions ones integrity and bravery, it makes me upset. This board is here to discuss football and to pass on information. I was not bashing any, including Alice people, simply stated and fact about a game that I attended in which to see my son play football. No one, anyone, should have to worry if they will make it to their car safely after I highschool football game. Calhoun travels well, perhaps the Alice folks were not prepared for this. It still doesn't excuse the behavior of the EE fans who walked all the way over from the home side, To leave out the exit onthe visited side for one purpose, to start a fight. There was ver little security and none after the game. After you leave the visited side exit, we walked to a field that was seclveral blocks away. That is where this took place. Nobody, and I mean nobody deserves to be assaulted just because they pulled for one particular team. Again, this was not Alice folks, this was simply at there stadium, and perhaps the Alice isd was simply not prepared for onslought of fans that would be coming from Calhoun. When it comes to stadiums, I can assure you port Lavaca has no room to talk. But I can also assure you, that you will be free to walk to your car after the game, win, lose or draw. As for the guy who questioned my integrity by asking if I just stood there, he is the one the previous post was directed at, no one else. Every team, every fan base has their bad apples. Just so happens EE had theirs out in force that night. First of all, I want to thank you for your service. My dad proudly seved in Korea, and my grandfather proudly serve in the 2nd. Wor ld War. As far as hiding behind a screen name, that works both ways. PM me and I will gladly give you my name, adress and phone number.

Dude I don't want to know who you are, what I am saying is its easy to pretty much say I stood there and did nothing. I took that as an insult and did not like that at all. It was a chicken &$@$ thing to say. That's all. Sometimes when you pass judgment on a situation like that without knowing all the facts it's easy to look foolish, your line of questioning pretty much would have insulted anyone. Now, can we get on with football. Can someone tell me how they plan on defeating Calhoun if and when they get that chance?

I personaly could not stand there and watch some thugs mis-treat an elderly person, however I was not in your shoes that night. I don't think I said a chicken #### thing at the time.

What if you were carrying your 6 year old daughter, and your wife that weight 110# soaking wet has hand in hand with your son. I got then to the car, retrieved my cell phone and returned. It was seconds later. I ensured my family was safe and was prepared to defend and victim had the assault continued. Trust me, if I had gotten my hands on those responsible, I probably would be in jail to this day for at a minimum, making them live there lives out in a wheel chair. I'm trying to be PC so I don't get the comment removed.

I think you are overreacting on the matter, but the game in Alice was pretty bad
