The Cinderella Johnson Jaguars In my Week 11 – The Playoffs BLOG, I told you there will be a “Cinderella” team that shocks everybody and holy crap, that team just happens to be in San Antonio, TX…the JOHNSON JAGUARS. They beat the Smithson Valley Rangers in Week 11….the rangers were undefeated!! They beat the Brandeis…

Last night I was at Heroes stadium for a STATE QUARTERFINAL game between the Judson Rockets and the Madison Mavericks.   Yes, it was very cold outside (it was even colder when I left) but I was spoiled and warm in the press-box.  Despite the coldness, both teams had a lot of fan support and…

On Saturday, something happened to me (no, I didn’t get abducted by aliens) for the first time and I know I am not alone!!!   OK, so I went to Farris stadium for the Brennan Bears and Victoria West Warriors game.  It was about 12:00 and radio air was 1:30.  The stadium and parking lot…

On Friday, I was at Cabaniss (I don’t want to auto correct it to cannabis; stupid spell checker) field in Corpus Christi for the Judson Rockets and the Laredo United Longhorns AND the Steele Knights and the Edinburgh North Cougars.  Man, I couldn’t have asked the “football gods” for anything better!!! Even though I was…

Holy crap!!!  It is Thursday night, I am off from work for Thanksgiving and I have no football game tonight; first time since Week 1 when Thursday Night Lights had a bye week.  I don’t know what do with myself.  I feel like I should have my small dry erase board duct taped to my…

Yesterday afternoon, I was at the Alamodome for another 5A D-I area playoff game between the Madison Mavericks and the O’Connor Panthers. I won’t be back at the Dome until next year…Jan 4th for the San Antonio High School All-Star football game which will be on CW35!!! Before that game is the US Army All…

On Thursday, I was at the Alamodome for a 4A D-II Bi district playoff game between the Alamo Heights Mules and the Austin Vandegrift Vipers. The Alamodome is one of my favorite stadiums to work a High School football game!!! I worked for the Spurs from 1999-2002 when they played at the Dome so I…

On Friday, I was at D W Rutledge stadium as the Judson Rockets hosted the Warren Warriors in the 5A D-I area playoffs. Finally we got football weather as it was cold, windy, and rainy and thank god I had some hot food from Dickeys BBQ on FM 78. Thank you Dickeys for catering all…

I totally didn’t expect the Johnson Jaguars to beat the undefeated Smithson Valley Rangers. So, just like that, the number 1 team in 5A as ranked by the San Antonio Express is out and so is the dream match-up of Smithson Valley and Steele (for the 2nd year in a row)!!!  Could the Johnson Jaguars…

Dude, I couldn’t have asked the “football gods” for a better team than Steele (well, maybe Judson) to start my 2013 High School Football Playoffs!!  Steele won the state championship in 2010 (I was there), lost in the state championship in 2011 (I was there), and lost in the state semifinals in 2012.  By the…

Boy, the regular season sure flew by fast!!!  It seems like just yesterday, we were in Week 0.  And, now we got 6 weeks of PLAYOFFS where anything can happen and hopefully, for me, it will end in Cowboys stadium (or whatever the hell it is called) at a state championship game. Unlike most Texas…

On Thursday night, I was at Heroes stadium for a 26-5A game between the playoff bound Churchill Chargers and the non-playoff bound Lee Volunteers (and there wasn’t any possibility of Lee making the playoffs).    This was also the last Thursday Night Lights TV game and I had an amazing season..I was on TV, my blog was mentioned,…

On Saturday night, I was at Benson stadium as the St. Anthony Yellow Jackets hosted the Austin St. Michael’s Crusaders.  Yep, this is what a stat man does on his day off on a Saturday during High School football season.   Actually folks, I attended a St. Anthony game in Week 5. In that Week…

I arrived at the game at 6:25, scarfed down some Church’s Chicken, and set myself up for stats. TV air time starts…
