Had 50 yard line seats for my favorite high school football game last night. The environment had zero political commentary. Home squad consisted of 30 players and 30 cheer leaders and about 25 band members. they all looked and acted like one team, supported by parents and school. Attendance was limited and masks required to fit the guidance but no one was pissy about it. alcohol was not seen nor permitted.

I suggest that folks looking for a fall outdoors sports venue, skip pro and college and invest in your local high school program.

I hope these kind of scenes keep playing out all over the country. People in general want to go enjoy normal things and support each other even if the MSM is ramming the other narrative down our throats 24/7.

Of course it helps that you are in a common sense state that is allowing football.

I expect there will be kneeling and maybe some black power salutes if we ever have a game. Which seems doubtful anytime soon due to covid and now Laura.

Unfortunately, Louisiana won’t allow high school sports until phase 3 and we’ve been stuck in phase 1.5/2 hell for over 160 days.

Was watching some of the Utah HS game on ESPN last night. Was refreshing to see.

That’s the governor that y’all chose to re-elect. The guy is playing y’all so hard. His incompetence is astounding. Now I’ve heard multiple people who previously hated him are coming out saying they like the way he’s handled the pandemic. Wtf

I inadvertently sat in some old redneck’s season ticket spot at Longview @ Marshall.

He gave me an earful
