Howe's That I really don't think the casual Howe Bulldog fan understands how good your team is and has been since the middle of 2014. You can read the Bulldogs article, but 18-5 during that period is remarkable. Considering who the five losses are to makes it nearly impossible to get one's head around. If you're a Bulldog fan and you're not excited about this brand of football, you may not ever be satisfied because this is just about as good as it gets. It's been since the 1940s that Howe has been this dominant week after week. Not even Jim Fryar's 1980s 'Dogs put together an 18-5 stretch. With all that has been accomplished, Howe still has to face what some calls the fifth toughest district in all of Texas. When the weather cools in a few weeks, fall football should be as fun around here as it has been in many many years. Michelle Carney, who has taken photos of many many sports activities in Howe had surgery last week and missed her first football game in ten years. The team responded by signing a football and giving it to her as a "get well soon" gift. We are hoping for a speedy recovery for our mighty photographer. Special thanks to Tammy Griffin, Keri Harvey and Loretta Anderson this week for taking photos.

Hit and run reported at Quinlan Ford, 44-13 The Howe Bulldogs, with the 44-13 win over Quinlan Ford on Friday night have now won 18 of their last 23 games. Those five losses have come to Gunter who is currently ranked first in Class 3A, Division II, West Rusk (12-2 in 2015), Pottsboro (11-1 in 2015 and ranked first in state most of the year), Waskom (16-0 state champions and ranked first in state most of the year), and Leonard in 2014 which was an overtime loss to a team that came in 8-1 and eventually lost to Waskom to end their playoff run. In other words, if you're planning on beating the Howe Bulldogs these days, you better be one elite team overloaded with speed and raw talent. And to top it

HMS honors first responders Over the past two years the Howe Middle School has a program called "Monday Fun Day" where speakers visit to discuss various topics such as community involvement to motivation. Last Monday that fell the day after 9/11, HMS decided instead of a speaker to talk to them, they wanted to honor local first responders. As an afterthought in planning the program, with first responder recruiting down all over the country due to the extreme turn in violence in recent years, this not only was a way to honor those brave men and women, but also may serve to plant a thought about future careers from current
