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…

On Thursday night, I was at Farris stadium for a District 27-5A game between the Brandeis Broncos (7-1, 6-0) and the Marshall Rams (1-7,1-5).  Yep, a one loss team playing a one win team. I arrived at the game at 6:25, scarfed down some Church’s Chicken, and set myself up for stats. TV air time starts…

On Thursday night, I was at Harlandale Memorial stadium as the winless Southside Cardinals visited the one loss Harlandale Indians.  Yeah, on paper, this game looked like a blow-out, but the stats and final score produced a very close game. The Harlandale Indians defeated the Southside Cardinals by a score of 21 to 14. I…

Setting the record in record setting fashion.  The Converse Judson Rockets make Texas High School football history with 37 consecutive winning seasons!  OK, I didn’t write that headline.  I actually had a Judson Rocket fan who also is a Twitter follower of mine write that for me.  Thank you Roland Guajardo (@RolandJudsonRoc). I want all…

On Friday night, I was at Ranger stadium in Spring Branch as the Judson Rockets visited the Smithson Valley Rangers in a HUGE District 25-5A game.   A lot of media outlets were calling it “the game of the week” and the reasons were pretty well defined. First, Smithson Valley was ranked Number 1 by…

On Thursday night, I was at Farris stadium for a District 27-5A game between MY Clark Cougars (class of 1995) and the Jay Mustangs. I always enjoy working a Clark game cause there are still some familiar faces on the Clark sideline…one is Coach Rodney Wilson (he was my History teacher), another is Paul “Doc”…

On Friday, I was at D W Rutledge stadium for a District 25-5A rivalry game between the Judson Rockets and the Wagner Thunderbirds.  This game is also known as “The Hammer Bowl.”  So, you’re probably curious as to the origin of the Hammer Bowl. Well, I will tell you… Cory Sears was a former Judson…

Last night, I was the Spring Sports complex for the Jefferson Mustangs and the Lanier Voks. I couldn’t have asked the “football gods” for a better day. For starters, it was my 3 year wedding anniversary.   I did see my wife for like 15 minutes in the morning before I left for work and I gave her…

On Saturday afternoon, I was at Benson stadium (which is where the University of the Incarnate Word Crusaders play football) for a High School football game between the St. Anthony Yellow Jackets and the St. Dominic Savio Eagles. This was not a TNL or a Texas Sports Radio Network game, nor did I do stats….

On Thursday night, I was at Gustafson stadium for a District 27-5A game between the Warren Warriors and the Holmes Huskies.    I have already worked two Warren games this season…a win in Week 0 where they exploded for 62 points and a loss in Week 1 where they only scored 10 points.  On the other…

On Thursday night, I was at the Springs Sports complex for the Burbank Bulldogs and the Highlands Owls.  Burbank trailed 21 to 0 at halftime, but in the 2nd half the Bulldogs scored 43 points and held Highlands scoreless.  Yes, folks, Burbank did the impossible and won the game by a final score of 43…

Boy, I am so glad that I didn’t choose to eat at Whataburger after the Brandeis/O’Connor game ended cause if I did, I would’ve been either a witness or stuck in the middle of a 30 second food fight!!!   “Clearly the rivalry between select students from these two high schools got out of hand,…

On Thursday night, I saw the number 1 team (Madison Mavericks) play the number 3 team (Smithson Valley Rangers). On Friday night, I saw the number 4 team (Judson Rockets) play the number 8 team (East Central Hornets). And, last night, I was at Farris stadium for what I am calling “the game of the…

On Thursday night, I was at Comalander stadium as the Smithson Valley Rangers visited the Madison Mavericks.  Both of these teams have 3 wins and 0 losses and Madison is ranked number 1 in 5A and Smithson Valley is ranked number 4 by Thursday Night Lights.  I wouldn’t be surprised if one of these teams made it…

Last night, I was at Hornet stadium as the Judson Rockets visited the East Central Hornets.  Even though it rained all day yesterday and several football games were delayed and/or canceled, this game went on as scheduled. Well, when I arrived the at stadium, the rain stopped!!!  It did rain on and off throughout the…

I had every intention on working this game as I really wanted to see the Wheatley Heights sports complex, BUT, something I ate earlier in the day didn’t agree with me (I won’t go into specific details) and I didn’t make it to the game.  Yes, I called (or texted in sick) to the boss…
