This was the trigger post that caused a post storm. It was posted I believe in reference to concern if we will get to enjoy a normal HS football season or have it interfered with like last season by the virus pandemic. Taken as a stand alone statement I don't see it as racist or political. I do pretty obvious in the statement when I read it only he knows what he really meant when he posted it. I ain’t going to come in here and argue with anyone about political views. I became a believer in the vaccine when in my work place 10 of my coworkers all get sick and the only ones left where the ones who where vaccinated one of my coworkers was previously vaccinated and he got a mild sickness two of the unvaccinated where put in the hospital and are now recovering well. I am also a believer in everyone has the right to make their own decisions on what’s best for them and their families… We are now up to 16 positive cases at my workplace in a room of 40 operators. The most concerning is a individual who less than two months ago that returned to work after colon cancer surgery and chemo. Chemo therapy is hard on your immune system and your ability to fight off bacteria and viruses. Another coworker yesterday after being out 12 days with mild symptoms called to tell me at 5:30 am that he was at a 24 hr emergency clinic with extremely sore throat and low blood oxygen levels. Now yesterday at 8 pm he was still at clinic Because he has Covid pneumonia with O2 low level and the Dr cannot release him to go home. At present there still no hospital beds available in Corpus for Covid patients.Be careful and stay safe out there.

The Chemo is designed to kill cancer cells however it also kills white blood cells. I recommend DR. Saloume at the Corpus cancer center but all of them there are first class. That whole staff takes good care of you. You get the same treatment you get in Houston. I drank lots of Ensre Plus laced with protein powder and lots of b.ref meat. Food has no taste so you eat whatever you can. Eat foods that help build white blood cells. I cut brush and did yard work with that bag strapped to my waist pumping the poison. If you get the China virus while you have low white cell count you will be toast. I have not found anybody that will try the Orange tree leaf treatment yet.

We will have a season... This variant will likely be on a decline by the time the season hits if other countries which had it is any indication. Pico your probably correct on this one. This Delta variant came on fast with big spikes in India and Great Britain. It hit hard and fast but also fizzled out fast. I bet we’re looking good in another 3 weeks or so. Lets all just hope that it fizzles here fast as well because right now it is getting pretty bad again. I heard over 1k new cases just yesterday in SA. NOT GOOD

Amen Clem! We don’t need to hear the horror stories about the Covid. Everyone on this forum is well aware of it and everyone also has lost friends, family, & co-workers to this horrible disease. Let’s all be positive and concentrate on the upcoming football season.

It’s a reload season again, same as it’s been since Year 2.

New QB and New HC with zero experience as a head coach? Not saying Vets won't be good, but I wouldn't be as optimistic.

Dudes look big and in shape. I know the mindset is one of excellence. The coach is very respected by the team, and he’s proven to be good at everything he’s done. Spring game looked great. Lots of key coaches are back. Lots of key players are back. It just seems like another solid solid team this year, again.

No team puts out lowlights for the public to see. I wouldn't expect a return to the State Semi Finals this year. But it seems you do from the post you are laying out.

You have Vets, FB, maybe a Valley team and Southside. Beat a valley team in the 1st round, make it past Southside and the road to the semis is a fairly easy one.

Of course we have and never will show a whole lot of flash in our scrimmages. Ray learned this the hard way after we scrimmaged them in 2016 and then played them in District six weeks later.... They thought they really had a chance.... In fact expect a doom and gloom report after our Friday scrimmage against Gonzales.

Their Qb might be the best one south of Austin and that says something.

But tell me anyone other than Flour Bluff you expect to challenge them in District. I honestly don't see one. I will Concede maybe the Victoria schools IF they can reload from heavy losses to graduation. But the rest of the District will have to prove something to me. Then its playoff like you already said and a loss by Vets in the first two rounds WILL BE devastating for Vets.

The better SA area and Valley 5A schools are in division 2.

I'm Expecting Southside to have an outstanding season. They just might make their deepest run in playoff history for Southside.
