I'll see if I can sweet talk him into it though.


If I make it, I will be on the Navasota, GW, and the Refugio sides. :)

I will if I have to.

I'm not excited to drive 3 and a half hours.

I will be heading to Lubbock, roughly 150 miles, which I am used to makin that drive since I make it every few weeks...

Last weekend I went from Lubbock to Dallas to Norman for the tech game.... I traveled over 1070+ miles in 2 DAYS!!! That is a long way to go for a football game.

Change of plans for me.


We had a death in the family..... so we won't be going to RR.

I will make the WO-S - Gilmer game though.

I'm going to stay near the house tongiht though. I might go into Houston for a game, but if I don't then..... it's webcast for me.

Condolences Neck.

I will be driving about 45 miles to watch Giddings-Rio Hondo. This is only the second high school game I have ever been to that did not involve my alma mater.

Wow. That's pretty weird.

Lol.

I only watch other teams when our season is done.

Yeah, I usually go to all of the Hondo games, and some years we would still be playing this weekend. Normally by the time Hondo is out of the playoffs the games I would like to watch are a long way from home. I am amazed at the distances some people drive to watch games involving other schools.

Yes, I'm crazy. :D

Necks - sorry about the loss. :( Text me if you make it to Lufkin.
