HOWE’S HAPPENINGS Victory Independent Publishing
I was telling someone yesterday that I didn’t have anything super eventful for the front page – they told me Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were getting married and I could share that. My first response was a shutter. I was a nerdy, non-cheerleading athlete in High School. I can’t stand Taylor Swift’s music and I previously judged all women who went to her concerts.. But– then I remembered, she did have two songs I liked before she “sold out”, in my opinion“You Belong With Me” and “Our Song”. You can’t even find those songs on iTunes anymore, I guess they didn’t make any profit for her anymore. They were solid lyrics though– not my favorite sound, but good lyrics anyway. Maybe music is like church denominations. Not everyone has the same vibe or opinions– but if we could get over the judgement, and take time to hear each other's songs maybe we would find that we are all right about some things, and maybe wrong in others– but how will we know if we don’t sit around together and “jam” to eachother’s favorite songs? Will you also invite your non-Christian music listening friends to the jam sesh to share their music? I sure would!

Discipline and Toughness to Imprint a New Beginning for the Dogs Monte Walker The Howe Bulldogs are coming off their second straight 3-7 season, but don’t tell new Head Coach Jake Smith or his coaching staff that. They have a vision of a team loaded with juniors that can turn heads much like in Lance Bryan’s first year as head coach in 2022. That year, Howe entered the season with a 22-game losing streak but shocked everyone on opening night with a 2015 win at Honey Grove. That year marked the first time Howe made the playoffs since 2016. This Bulldogs team has an eerily similar feel to them with a home game against Boyd who throttled Howe 44-13 in the season opener a year ago.
