The Texas Quote of the Day:
"Then there's the story of a young Texas lad in Sunday School who was asked to name the birthplace of Jesus. He guessed Gladewater, Mount Pleasant, and Bonham. When told the answer was Palestine, he said "I knew it was in East Texas somewhere."
------ "The Truth About Texas," Lewis Nordyke, 1957
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." --John Adams

All jokes aside, Texas takes its High School football programs just like they were pro teams.

I have always liked high school football, not so much with pro. I quit keeping up with pro football when Dallas got rid of their team. lol

I still thinks it's odd that its called Football (American Football) ???  Consider
the majority of the time the ball is not moved by contact with the foot but rather carried
passed or pitched by hand.

I live in Oklahoma and it is the same with High School football.  When Oklahoma and Texas college teams play each other, it doesn't matter what their records are; it is always a good game to watch.
