Doubtful. But if so he'll never get there in time!

They haven't run a tackle trap in God knows when...at least not for me to recognize it - I used to be able to spot that play because that was my boyfriend's play ( he is my husband now). ;D

Played on the o-line. I know how it's done. ;D Maybe he forgot the snap count...

743 tackle trap was a great play. The defensive lineman usually didn't see it coming. BAM!

OK. Let's see if this works.

Nice! fyi, you only need to include the youtube link in your message to attach the video. No need to include all the java script.

Now for a comparison of scoreboards. Here is the Galena Park ISD video board. When built in 2002 it was one of the first video boards in the state and is called Jumbotron on the
TexasBob site. I remember thinking WOW when I first saw it. I stepped it off and estimate the video screen to be 14 ft wide.

 

[NDNband69]

Board comparison #2 is Port Arthur Memorials. It's video board looks to be a tad wider then Galena Parks. Note the 10 advertisement spots.

 

[NDNband69]

If they called Galena Park's video board a Jumbotron.......what do we call this.......besides.....Beautiful.

 

[IndianFan]

We can call it the best high school video scoreboard in the state!

 

[NDNBand06]

how wide is our scoreboard exactly? its surely something to be proud of. back in 2003 when we performed for the area marching contest, i thought Galena Park had a nice facility.

 

[NDNBand06]

correct me if im wrong on this, but arent they charging 10k a year for the two ads at the top of the scoreboard, 20k a year for the two on the side, and 5k a year for the 8 at the bottom? and arent they sold for a 10 year contract?

if my math is correct, the school is already making 60k a year just from the scoreboard and if it were full of ads, it would be worth right at a million for a ten year span?

it seems to me that this is a way to easily justify the cost of the stadium to anybody who thinks we didnt need it. does anybody know if the school has thought of getting coke or somebody to sponsor the concession stand or something? im sure that would bring in a good bit of money to help out too.

 

[NDNband69]

This is what it reads in the board meeting agenda.

The cost includes the new windstorm rated structure, a 16’6” High x 27’ Wide video display with 10MM resolution, 3 cameras and computer equipment with training, and an upgrade to our existingsound system.

This gives us the largest video display for high schools in the state. I am not aware of any other high school having an HD video screen.

 

[NDNband69]

Here we go:

These are the dimensions for the whole structure. It is massive.

Yes, the stadium will be an income source. Surprisingly some folks will still refuse to recognize that as a positive.

Here is the view from the camera mounted on the scoreboard.
