I saw a great HS FB game tonight between
@LWEastFootball
and
@BataviaFootball
. It epitomized HS sports. Those players were playing for pride, each other, and their communities. To the last second. Special houtout to

…such a competitor. Respect earned. Good luck!
The 41 seniors of
@LWEastFootball
EARNED that parade and trophy presentation today. 2 losses in 4; both in state championship games. They didn’t just carry the torch, they hoisted it high and elevated the bar! Picture/video attached. Thank you, men!

Went on a first date in 2002 to a baseball game. There was a rain delay. We spent two hours together in a bar & grille under the right field bleachers, then spent three hours together watching her favorite team win. Was a great day. We’re still together 19 years later. But go off

I’m an Astros fan, but love to see a kid having fun and believing he making a difference. Good on him. By the way, he’s a doing a heck of a job distracting me. 👀
These
@LWEastFootball
seniors deserved a better fate tonight. Many memories of this great team, and the future of this program is bright. See you all in August. EAST will be back. Thanks for following our season.

I can’t wait until August when I sit 10 rows behind his dugout at Guranteed Rate Field, decked out head to toe in orange and blue!

The Griffins will host Barrington (next Saturday time TBD), who beat Maine South 42-40 earlier this evening. Come out and support these young men as they play for their second consecutive trip to the state finals!!
@BrendanSugrue
Mattress Mack does so much for the city of Houston. He’s not just an old fart fan. When wannabes Cruz and Osteen were running for cover during Harvey (or any other crisis, FTM), Mack was giving away furniture and providing water and shelter. He’s what every city wants in a human.

I think he’s talking about Clemens’s years with the Yankees, specifically 1999 and 2000, when they “shot up” the standings and roided their way to World Series titles.

@astrosCTH
😊 This whole team seems like they are great friends. Non-Astros fans don’t see it, but those of us who watch every day see it, clear as day!

A Sox fan sitting in front of me yesterday told Altuve to take off his shirt because he’s wearing a “microphone.” I don’t know which was worse..the guy wanting to see a shirtless Jose or the fact that a microphone wouldn’t do a hitter any good whatsoever. 😂
No shame. No regrets.
Be proud,
@LWEastFootball
, you represented YOUR school, YOUR communities, and District 210 with class and heart. Great game boys. Thanks for a memorable season!
Lights out in Frankfort!!!!
@LWEastFootball
scored 31 unanswered points and the defense bent in the second half but didn’t break. On to Champaign!!! Looks like East will face Loyola Academy at 7pm next Saturday.

All the casuals need to read this. Problem is even if they do, they are either too slow to understand it or too stubborn to believe it. All they “know” is

Before the World Series started, I told
@GOSTROS2022
I believed if the Astros averaged 4 runs per game, they’d win the World Series. The Astros didn’t do that..they only averaged 3.66666666667 runs per game. That’s all the pitchers needed. Think about that…unreal.
@Cappy5514
@Castellani2014
Stanek. Lowest ERA in franchise history, IIRC. He got very little run. Brown didn’t pitch. Smith didn’t pitch. The depth is unreal.
@SomeonesAnIdiot
So funny that the Towson guys actually tracked him down. 😂😂😂 Regardless, ball came back to the spot of the recovery and it was KSU’s ball, 1st and Goal at the 7ish.
Lights out in Naperville!

The Griffins are 4-0 on the season and will face the Homewood-Flossmoor Vikings next week in Frankfort! Hope to see y’all there!

@Jared_Carrabis
is putting the TOOL in barstool.
Also…I almost never “@“ collegiate or HS athletes. But Mr. Boe earned that tonight. Gritty, gutsy performance. East’s defense hit him hard. Multiple times. He kept getting up and willed his team to within 3 yards of a win. I’m rooting for you!
DELIGHTS IN FRANKFORT!!
@LWEastFootball
is heading back to the state final and it’ll be a rematch of last season vs. Loyola Academy (beat York 23-14). Normal. Next Saturday. 8pm. Make the drive to support this amazing team!!!
@alxsto_
In Dec. '19 my kids & I met you at a restaurant in Frankfort. It was Xmas break & you were with your family. You took time to converse and take pics w/my kids. They still talk about it. You are classy, kind, and selfless; qualities of a WINNER. Haters are none of that.

Brantley caught that like he knew what was coming. Had to have been wearing a buzzer. Bregs patted him on the chest afterward, probably, to make sure it wasn’t jarred loose on impact. Somebody get TomBoy on this!

Astros fan in CHI here. I believe this. Why? B/c I listened to nearly every pitch of the last two games, and you and JB were complimentary of the Astros lineup throughout. The “makes you wonder” comment sounded bad at the time. Appreciate the explanation.

@MainTeamSports
Regarding this photo and NOT what he said in the video....Apparently his teammates directly next to him, who are around him every day, have no problem with him standing. Same with Kaep...his teammates were supportive. Judging people based on one photo is speculative and dangerous
@AstrosFuture
He’s even trying to shift his momentum. His last step is a plant to redirect, not drive. Anyone who has ever tried to run someone over knows that in order to do that, you drive THROUGH them, not around them. Unfortunate accident, and nothing more.
OH. MY. GISH!!!! Brody Gish takes the handoff, breaks a tackle, and goes 35 yards to the house! TOUCHDOWN GRIFFINS. Urban kick True!

giving all his effort to stay relevant. He’s probably hoping Dodgers fans give him a mural right next to Joe Cowardly. Plaschke and Dodgers fans deserve one another.

He’s calling out the hypocrisy of the NCAA. They waited THREE YEARS to notify WF of this, but opened and investigation on UM almost immediately. That’s why he’s peeved, and I’d say rightly so.
