OK, this will take a while, so bear with me.

51 J. Heard, 35 C. Gentle, 11 J. Burns, 10 K. Beasley, to name just a few. Plus, newcomers too numerous to mention who fell out of love with their spring numbers and/or saw single digit numbers come available. (7 D. Brahme, 5 R. Jackson, 3 J. van Dorselaer, 5 D. Hobbs, 9 M. Dye, 4 T. Redmond.)

Van Dorselaer played a lot of DE his senior year due to his team needing him to play on Defense. He is a really good TE, but for whatever reason the Southlake offense doesn’t use the TE effectively in this scheme. It’s a shame because they have had some really talented TEs.
I’m going to predict that he will be really good at Tennessee. He can block, catch, and break away from the defense. In this era, I hope that he stays long enough for him to realize his potential at Tennessee.

Happy Sunday

July 13, 2025: Do not lose momentum. You can take advantage of opportunities that are presented to you, and in some cases you can create your own opportunities. Keep your eyes wide open so that you do not miss what the Lord is doing on your behalf. The spiritual implications far outweigh natural potential as you continue to focus on the everlasting Kingdom. Revelation 3:8 I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.

Pong. I had one of those. Great game. If you caught it just right you could line up the paddles and the ball would just go back and forth incessantly with no input by the player. Almost hypnotic hearing and seeing it go back and forth on its own.

We just got back from a multi family vacation in Taos, New Mexico. It was awesome. Played golf, did a river float, took an ATV tour in the mountains, hiked a few trails, and on our last trail we climbed a Via Ferrata. The Via Ferrata was the highlight of the trip as we had never done anything like that before. The base was at 11,000 feet. We climbed another 300 vertical feet. We asked for the beginners climb, but our guide thought we were doing so well that he switched us over to the experienced climbing trek, but didn’t tell us until we finished. I kept thinking that if that was the beginner climb that there was no way that I could handle the advanced climb. 😂
If you are ever near a Via Ferrata in the USA, I highly recommend it. You are secured with a harness to a series of safety cables. You have 2 safety lines so that you are never at risk, unless you unhooked both at the same time. I am not sure I would do it outside the USA as other countries only have one safety line and most fatal falls occur when transferring to the next cable. I tried to attach pictures, but the files are too big for VN and I am not tech savvy enough to reduce the file size.

Go to the website skitaos.com and see the Via Ferrata page. They have them in Colorado and I think Utah too. It’s a blast. I was able to do it and I am probably in the worst shape I’ve been in in about 6-7 years. I have a torn meniscus and have been trying to figure out if it will heal or need surgery.

It’s weird, it hurts more with sitting than activity. The drive back from Taos to DFW was bad enough that tomorrow, I think I will tell my sports medicine partner that he will need to fix the tear. 🧐

Capacity for the game should be around 145,000 people at a average of $1038.00 per ticket. .. that's over $150,000,000 at the gate if my math is correct .. of course I could be incorrect.

Now let's add in concession stand sales and souvenirs looking at about $200,000,000 gross...
