Took me a long time to get back to this post, but thanks, guys, for the information. OldBearKat, that was a funny graphic!

Well, duh! What a dummy I can be! My apologies, olderelk, for just being dumb, maybe illiterate, and blind, as well. Clearly, that page says, FoxSportsSouthwest.com It might be in my best interest to put that URL in my web browser on Saturday. Thanks for the help and a good lead even if I...

As nearly as I can tell, olderelk, that is the TV broadcast schedule. For reasons I cannot fully understand, North Carolina TV stations don't carry Fox Sports Southwest, nor any Texas six man football games. Therefore, if anyone determines a web link where one might hear the game (I suspect...

Likewise, here. Wish I were back in Texas right now.

I remembered Tom's name, and thought I recalled the twins name, but hated to embarrass myself if I was not right. They might remember me as the last male drum major the THS band ever had. Only had two in its history as far as I know and I was the last.

You are likely correct. Think I remember some Hibbitts twins though they were considerably younger than me. Can only recall one of the twins given name, but they were neat kids. Think I was a Den Chief for them when they were Cub Scouts, IIRC. Long time ago.

It's likely I know him or of him, anyway. Being old as I am, he has probably never heard of me. I went to school with his dad or granddad, probably. There was a fellow named Hibbitts a year older than me when I was in HS in Throckmorton.

Looks like the question of this thread is now settled. Way to go Hounds. Valley should be commended on a very good season and the players must be quite disappointed. However, Bob Wills still came from Turkey and not Throckmorton. Never could get the Internet coverage to work for me, but this...

That's correct, you and I are close in west Texas terms. *grin* But, at least you'll get to return to Texas. I keep hoping to move back but it's not looking too promising, at the moment. However, being born in Odessa and graduating from HS in Throckmorton, I really do like the trees here!

Growing up in Throckmorton, I always thought that one name was far too long. And it must be, as most here seem to reduce it to Throck or T-rock. On the other hand, now I am pretty proud of it and the team that represents it, too!

Thanks, HornFan. I'll try to listen this evening. Now to remember to interpolate the time difference!

Graduated from Throckmorton in 1964 and sure wish I were able to see this game. Though I never played 6-man ball, I sure do enjoy all the excitement you folks have for the game and the teams. I could not possibly pick either team with any amount of reason, but my emotions say Throckmorton...

Valley did score 24. Unfortunately, DTC scored even more. Close but no cigar. *grin*

Bal-mor-he-a had to be my favorite!

How often are half 6 man / half 11 man games played like Throckmorton will be doing against Windthorst next Friday? Having grown up in the area, I know there are times when accomodations are made, but this seems strange. If one team was ahead by 45 at the half after the six man bout, would the...
