    Friday Night Lights in Texas. In about 45 of these 50 states, this would be a state championship game of the generation. Two teams ranked in the top 100 in the nation. Here, it's week 6 of district play.

    Gotta love it.

    Went to school at Wylie outside of Abilene. People have no idea just how sports gets treated there. Varsity anything is local celebrity status.

    It's amazing the high school sports fields/facilities they have in Texas.

    There's small colleges that are not that nice

    Texas, eh? They're awfully gold-plated around here, too.

    That facility was $65 million. I know that there is one other in the district that was $68 million in Melissa, TX.... I'm pretty sure that the multi-school stadium in McKinney TX ISD was over $70 million.

    Yeah, it's kinda ridonklous.

    The whole high school campus is bigger than some colleges!

    There's a nice stadium or two around here. I watched Jerome Bettis Jr. play last night. He's committed to ND.

    I just googled that high school and the student population is 5317 students That's unfathomable for me that grew up in a high school of 250 people....

    I graduated 8th in my class. o_O

    Sounds like I'm S-M-R-T until I tell you that my class was 24 people. :D


    ...and to be clear, that's defined as grades 10-12. Freshmen go to the Lowery Freshman Center a mile or so south of this campus.

    We had a graduating class of about 50, and I was definitely in the lower half..... :D Wife was in the top 5, so I did something right ;)

    I can't comprehend population densities like that. Too many f*&king people. No. Thanks.

    I was 81st of 120 that started the school year. #82 and beyond didn't graduate. A couple pregnancies, a couple felonies and the rest just went to the workforce at 18 or sooner. Ranch hands and roughnecks don't need no stinking diploma.

    Ironically, ditchdiggers nowadays make more scratch than most kollidge grads.

    Stop putting @Dave Wolfe down like that. He’s trying, dammit. Frothing milk and making a pretty pattern on the espresso is a skill that takes work to develop.
