Well, another Sunday, another loss for the Houston Texans. It was a close enough game only losing by 3 points and the Texans had a chance to at least tie it up near the end but, quarterback Deshaun Watson spent too much time running around trying to make something happen, and ultimately had no time left to benefit from a completed pass...

With heavy rainfall expected in the crossroads by this weekend, some area high school football games will be played on Thursday night instead. The Warriors of Victoria West will play their District 15-5A opener against Corpus Christi Moody Thursday night at 7pm at Corpus Christi Flour Bluff Hornet Stadium...

Kliff Kingsbury and Kirby Hocutt must be doing something right.

First, let me start out by saying that I am a Houston Texans fan so, this blog post will undoubtedly be biased. I'm also an optimist so, I will always look for the positives. In the season opener on Sunday, the Houston Texans were on the road against the New England Patriots...

There's no denying the Houston Texans start the season with one of the toughest challenges of the year against the New England Patriots, a team that's always either in the Super Bowl, or at least close to it every year. I guess if there's any consolation, it's that the Pats don't usually play their best ball early in the season...

Football is back! There were some great games this past Friday in the openers for area high schools, and the results prompted movement in the AP Poll. The Cuero Gobblers opened their season with a close 49-42 win over Bay City. That win moved the Gobblers up 2 spots to #4 in Class 4A...

Are you ready for some football? The Titans of Victoria East and the Warriors of Victoria West kick off the new season next Friday (August 31) Victoria East is at home against West Columbia at Memorial Stadium, and Victoria West heads to Calhoun to take on the Sandcrabs at Sandcrab Stadium...

It's always great to see a hometown boy make it big in pro sports or any career that gets them national notoriety but unfortunately for one former Goliad High School grad it won't be with the Dallas Cowboys, at least for now. Dalton Sturm was officially a Dallas Cowboy until yesterday, when he was cut from the roster because of a need for defensive players...

Quarterback Deshaun Watson got a little more playing time Saturday night, using a full offensive series to throw a touchdown pass in the team's second preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. Watson engineered a73 yard drive in the first quarter going 5-of-8 for 73 yards, with a 1-yard toss to Bruce Ellington for the score...
