    I have spent 33 years in pub ed. I have seen hundreds....thousands of great public school teachers and coaches give their lives for kids on a daily basis. We are losing the battle at keeping our great educators in the classroom and we need leadership. This isn't it.
    Schools are for education, NOT indoctrination. We must reform curriculum, get kids back to the basics of learning, and empower parents to choose the best school for their child through education freedom.

    In other words...the benefits of playing HS football FAR outweigh the risks! Our game has NEVER been safer than it is today!
    The American Medical Society for Sports Medicine just concluded "Former high school football players show no difference in cognitive function testing and have lower depression scores when compared to non-contact sport controls." @vcspreps @GBHSLancersFB bjsm.bmj.com/content/bjspor…

    It appears that if you support Public Ed in Tx you are now labeled as a liberal by our Lt Gov and his peeps. We need leadership that supports our schools. Get out and vote

    So just curious...Did Dr Huang amd Commissioner Travis also shut down Club sports, basketball tournaments, baseball tournaments etc or is the school setting the only place where kids can get COVID?

    I found this on the ground and I’m not sure who wrote it or where it came from. What I do know is that we need more dads like this!

    There has never been a time where we needed Godly men of conviction in coaching, willing to stand in the gap for our kids more than we do now.

    Coaches...When we do get the guidlines from @uiltexas about starting our strength and conditioning programs it will be crucial that we do our part and follow all of the rules and safety guidelines if we want our Fall sports to start on time. #wewillwin!

    Don’t forget to also say that “I am proud of you” and “I’m proud to be your dad.”

    This is a PSA to all of my coaching friends. When you take your kids to track meets, baseball, softball games and the place you are going to has turf. Don't spit sunflower seeds or allow your kids to spit sunflower seeds. Have some respect.

    Tonight I watched my daughter....my baby...play her last basketball game. I am incredibly sad and proud all at the same time. Some things in life you just can’t prepare for. #prouddad
