high school football

Posted on 08/25/201211/04/2025 by Mark
Since my last post last Sunday, I have been relaxing and watching a whole lot of Netflix!!!  I blame my wife, but I am addicted to a Showtime series called Weeds.  I am almost done with Season 3…there are 8 seasons!!!  She wants me to watch Dexter and Battlestar Galactica!!  I want to watch Falling Skies and Breaking Bad.  I will have to check out those 4 shows after football season ends.


My favorite television shows come back in a few weeks; The Simpsons, The Walking Dead, CSI, Criminal Minds, and Touch.  So, when I am not working at the bank, not doing football stats, not writing, or not sleeping, I will be watching television!!!  Yay me!!!!


When football season starts, I always tell my wife, “I will see you in January!”  Wow, this will be Nina’s 6th season as football spouse!


Inside the Huddle is a place for my friends to share their passion for High School football.  My guest blogger next week is an employee of the Texas Sports Radio Network and he has many games and years under his belt! 


I have a new crop of supplies.  I got new markers, a new stat board, new dry erase rags, a fresh roll of duct tape, and a new pack of re-usable wire ties.   Oh, my wife is also gonna give me a nice haircut so I can look good for TV and radio!!!! 


I am armed with 2 publications.  One is Dave Campbell’s 2012 Texas Football magazine (it includes a massive Texas High School football preview) and the other is the San Antonio Express News High School football preview. 


I am so looking forward to using my Galaxy Tab.  It will be so much easier and quicker to use the calculator, memo pad, and text messaging then on my old flip phone.  I also don’t have to bring my laptop to games since the Tab has 3G!!!   The sweetest thing is the Tab has GPS so I can get home without getting lost.  Not like getting lost happens a lot; it happens a few times every year when I have a game at East Central stadium or the Spring Sports complex (I will be at both stadiums this year for Thursday Night Lights). 


I am going to write about each game I work this season and they will appear on my BLOG on Saturday’s and Sunday’s.  I also added a page called My High School Football schedule and I will keep this updated throughout the season. 


Please read and comment on my articles I wrote about the Top 10 teams as ranked in the preseason by the Express News.


Number 10 Kerrville Tivy Antlers

Number 9 Brennan Bears

Number 8 Judson Rockets

Number 7 O’Connor Panthers

Number 6 Reagan Rattlers

Number 5 East Central Hornets

Number 4 Brandeis Broncos

Number 3 Smithson Valley Rangers  

Number 2 Madison Mavericks 

Number 1 Steele Knights


I am ready for High School football to start and super excited for another great season; football season, not Weeds!

Hi, I am Mark. I started writing in 2011 about high school football, daddy blogging since 2015, and reviewing books since 2023. My writing style is unique, my sense of humor is a little crazy, and I’m not embarrassed to share any of it. You can email me at thedadspeaks@icloud.com.
