Brown makes Bay City proud
 College football recruiting has gotten crazy. Every year, fans hang on the decisions of high school players, waiting to see how their team ranks among the other teams. Of course, we won't know for the next couple of years whether the rankings are correct. But that doesn't stop fans ...
Pat Montgomery passes away
Pat Montgomery a pitching coach for a number of young baseball players in the area died Saturday after a battle with cancer. Montgomery impacted the lives of a number of people. Here is the story I wrote about Montgomery in November, shortly after he had been diagnosed. Pat Montgomery notices ...
Quit Griping
I was beginning to wonder how someone who didn't even watch a game could gripe about it. But at least my colleague Will watched or said he watched Alabama dismantle LSU in the BCS title game on Monday night. He seems to have allowed his dislike for Nick Saban to ...
That Winning Feeling
Refugio's performance in the playoffs convinced me the Bobcats had an excellent chance to win the Class 2A, Division II state championship. But there were also some signs that made me think this would be Refugio's year. Clay Whittington and I left to cover Friday's state championship game against Cisco ...
No doubt
Here's what's scary about Refugio's 82-6 wipe out of Riviera on Friday night at Jack Sportsman Bobcat Stadium. Riviera is probably the second-best team in District 16-2A, Division II. I shudder to think what the Bobcats could do to their other district foes. I don't believe Refugio coach Jason Herring ...

Friday night at Gobbler Stadium
Great crowd as anticipated for Calhoun at Cuero. Not much of a contest. Calhoun is a much better team this season. I was hoping to see Daniel Brooks at running back, but Calhoun coach Richard Whitaker said he was about 90 percent after tweaking his ankle a couple of weeks ...
Good start
I have heard many football coaches say they wanted to try and rebuild the Bloomington program. I have seen many coaches leave. Some before they even started and some after one season. I can't say I blame them. But Randy Perez said last year he meant to stay and he's ...
The time has come again
High school football season has arrived. It actually got under way on Thursday night, but it will start in our area on Friday. Some big games in Zero Week. I'll be in Refugio to watch the Bobcats play Rice Consolidated. Will Brown is headed to Corpus Christi for Calhoun and ...
Scrimmage time
You have to be careful drawing conclusions from scrimmages, but here are some observations from Victoria East at Bay City. The Titans are extremely quick on defense. They get to the ball very fast. Bay City had trouble running the ball on them. The one play that worked was a ...
