KAZ’S KORNER The worst kept secret among the pro football buffs came to light last weekend without many being surprised at the news that the Dallas Cowboys cut their most prolific wide receiver Dez Bryant. After all, his production dropped dramatically while his on and off-field antics increased to a point his personality was becoming more and more of a distraction. Perhaps the item that hurt the team the most was the fact his Bryant cost the team $16.5 million each year on the salary cap and that he was owed $12.5 million fo...

Our original schedule listed this Friday’s Area 11-6A track meet to be held by the Galena Park ISD. That is incorrect and thanks to West Brook’s Eric Peevey for letting me know of the venue. The 21-6A and 22-6A qualifiers will compete at the Deer Park 9th grade north campus track…. Congratulations, East Chambers…. Given their dominance at the 23-3A district track and field championships, congratulations certainly are in order to the East Chambers to girls coach Johnathan Snipes and boys coach Chris Fontenot for not only wi...
COUNTY JUDGE CARLTON MOVING ON There is so much going on nationwide I could write an entire column on the daily chaos that has taken place since last I sat here. First here at home however, County Judge Brint Carlton has decided to resign at ‘high noon’ on Sunday, April 22. Honestly that didn’t come as a surprise. I had wondered why Brint wouldwant to stay in Orange. It’s a tough time to practice law in this area, and establishing a law practice even more challenging. Brint had already tried practicing law with his father,...
Dave Rogers For the Record Orange County Judge Stephen Brint Carlton said his farewells to Commissioners’ Court Tuesday. And then those he’s leaving behind punted the question about his replacement.

Still, Carlton was expected to serve out his term, which doesn’t expire until the end of 2018, seven-plus months away. Instead, he announced Fridayhe’s leaving...

Dave Rogers For The Record Early voting begins Monday and runs through May 1 for those cities and school districts conducting 2018 elections. Most area officeholders are running unopposed but an Orange mayor’s race and two West Orange-Cove school board seats are up for grabs as are a school board seat and a city council seat in Bridge City and two spots on the Orange County Navigation and Port District board. The city of West Orange canceled its regular election as did P...
