Dog lover, I have 2 Peter and Paul, love the Astros, Texans and the Rockets. In college I interned w/ a state rep and did work for Charlie Wilson, later played by Tom Hanks in the movie. 5 members of my family died defending the Alamo.

Jose Varela 21 FCL
Nate Wohlgemuth 24 Ash

Hitting prospects who
1. have not made any lists so far
2. Had some good stats last season, enough to get noticed

Daudet, Salas and Brutcher are the only ones not in the rookie leagues. Ariel LeBron's stats were the most impressive followed by Pratt and Daudet.

Note: Phillip Dimmitt was taking supplies and cattle from local Tejano ranchers, with no permission to take them or reimbursing the ranchers. Fannin and his men would be pinned down at Goliad because of the pissed off ranchers & could not leave.

ultimately the goal of the engineers at the Alamo, was to build a tunnel into Bexar (San Antonio) so they could escape or attack the Mexican army from behind and front (The Alamo itself). The Mexican army showed up early so this did not happen

this is the team rankings, those in yellow only made team lists and not MLB lists. Right now there are 12 lists out, some end of season, the rest in the last 30 days, there are 12 more lists that have not come out, some are scheduled for mid-January.

updated MLB Astros players rankings.
Those in Yellow only have made a team list, not a national list
in blue are what their averages were for the MLB lists and the Team only lists.

There was a game we played in elementary school, everyone is in a line with arms intertwined, we would say "Red Rover Red Rover let" then name someone, they would have to try to run through the line. How it came from these guys, I don't know

with the Battle of Bexar done, it is time for the reports to be sent to the leadership and letters back home.

The Mexican army had very poor gun powder, so bad that at the Grass Fight the bullets were literally bouncing off the Texians chests

The Whitest House is not doing the lighting of the Xmas tree this year, they announce from this day on they will have the burning of the cross a long tradition in the Dickless Pedophile's family. They sang German folk tunes about "My Sweet Fuhrer", and "When The Gestapo Comes Marching In"

note: I have several family members on this partial list, Vincente Zepeda, and the Ximenez's. They are all list on the wall of the Alamo as participating in the Battle of Bexar, but the Ximenez brothers all have their last names spelled differently.

this marks the end of my mother's family's involvement in the Civil War, they went back to Laredo and stayed there until the Civil War was over. They and a lot of the cavalry came back to Bexar and became citizens
