This subject comes up after State every year. Would you like to see the football State Championships rotated between Arlington, Houston and San Antonio? Or would you like it to stay in Arlington?

A DFW reporter tried to build tomorrow’s 6A title game as DFW vs Houston. The Beaumont United kids were quick to say, “we’re 409 not Houston, we’re Beaumont.”
Love it

I want to be clear about something. Early reports for Beaumont show it barely got Cat 1 winds with some higher gusts.
So please don’t tell people that a Cat 4 hurricane wasn’t bad.....you didn’t experience a Cat 4.
Pray for those to our east that weren’t so lucky.

With Channelview's Jalen Hurts advancing to the Super Bowl, I figured I'd dig into our archives.
Here he is against Vidor, Port Arthur Memorial and West Brook over the years.

I was notified today that I’ve been selected as the Southeast Texas Coaches Association Media Person of The Year.
I’d like to to thank the coaches for this very special award and allowing me to be a small part of high school sports in the area.

It’s crazy how over two decades can fly by. Thank you so much for all the support over the years.
Can’t wait to get started at Hardin-Jefferson ISD on July 11th! The kiddos even agreed to support HJ when PNG isn’t playing lol.

Heading back to the station with West Brook leading Port Arthur Memorial 16-0 in the 2nd. Texas A&M commit Bryce Anderson has a pair of TD passes thanks to some nice plays by his receivers.

To the Class of 2020 in the 409, I know this doesn't mean much, but I'm truly sorry you are losing so much that is part of your senior year. Not just the athletes. Everyone. Try to come out of this stronger.
Congratulations to

Now that it’s official, I’m happy to announce that you’re stuck with me for at least three more years as the Sports Director of 409Sports. Thanks to

I think it’s pretty clear at this point that we’ll have to reach a time when it’s accepted that people are going to get COVID-19. If things are shut down anytime there’s even a possiblity of contact with positive person, there’s no way to play sports in the fall.

Update on mom: Looks like she’ll be released from the hospital tomorrow! Thanks to everyone for your prayers, calls and texts. It means the world to me.
Been thinking of the Brook family since last night. When it comes down to it, all the rivalries in the world don’t really matter. We’re all family in the 409.
