THELAST HURRAH

 ELIZABETH ANN JOHNSON: "I only listened to Brownsville Talk for a few minutes as I don’t care for Erasmo Castro and his rudeness and how he makes fun of everyone, but Joe was doing a good job of not letting Erasmo turn around what Joe said."


(EDITOR'S NOTE: Joe is Ali: He's the champ. He can dance, he can jab, he can retreat into the rope-a-dope, he can throw a big right and he is fearless. As I officially become an old man when I turn 70 at the end of this year, I find the octogenarian's campaign inspirational. He is a shell of the 6'1", 190-pound athlete who led Pan Am University in hitting for three years in a row. He was also the starting guard on the basketball team. He started at Cummings in 1957 as slowly ascended the BISD ranks. He is a legend. He is an icon. If we can't rename Sams Stadium after him as he turned the venerable playing field into the Coliseum of the RGV as athletic director, I say we vote for him. Minerva Peña has chattered nonsensically for twelve monotonous years and poor, defenseless Marisa Leal embarrassed herself in the AOBE debates with her tangential responses that drew no conclusions. Was Minerva, who skipped the forum, mysteriously inhabiting her body? These two gals couldn't carry "Big" Joe's jock strap in locker room parlance. Compared to Coach's intelligence, they are a pair of dunces. Minerva calls COVID-19 a hoax and Marisa calls Erasmo Mr. Señor. It's time for experience and knowledge during these Terrible Times of Trump. The two ladies will split the female vote and "Big" Joe will rise from the political dead and the BISD will have a leader who will help the school district get ahead. Be a part of history. Join the Last Hurrah!)

RIBERT E, LEE

With the City having disposed of Jefferson Davis and the BISD wrestling with the fate of slaveholder and traitor Charles Stillman, Brownsville's treacherous founder after whom the school district has named a campus, Texas Southmost College is moving to remove the designation of the Robert E. Lee Youth Center located in the Jacob Brown complex. "The board listened to a Zoom presentation by an individual who insisted that Robert E. Lee's name should be removed from the junior college because associating a traitor with higher education was a disservice to the latter," said a former Brownsville Herald columnist. "Apparently, his appeal has found sympathy with TSC Trustee Dr. Tony Zavaleta, a respected historian and renown writer. He has asked TSC President Jesus Roberto Rodriguez to put the item on the next agenda and consider the imminent removal of Lee's name, a traitor who refused command of the Union armies so he could lead the Confederacy and the rebels'...

REMI THROWS ELECTION TO BIDEN

Cameron County Elections Administrator Remi Garza is so Democratic that he bleeds blue. But how deep is his loyalty to the party? Does he rival George Parr who provided the crucial votes from Duval County that allowed Lyndon Baines Johnson to defeat Coke Stevenson for the U.S. Senate in 1948 and pave LBJ's path to the presidency? We would hope so. He knows that Trump is a cancer who is destroying our country. He knows that a figurative civil war is taking place as a result of Trump's polarizing politics that is eviscerating this nation. He knows that Trump is the epitome of evil and as a result of his many mortal sins God is punishing the United States as if we were Sodom and Gomorrah. Granted, it won't be an easy task. Trump defeated Clinton by 800,000 votes in 2016. To be on the safe side, Garza needs to find a million votes. Cameron County went for the Democrat, 60,000 to 30,000. Garza, therefore, must find 970,000 votes. Parr only had to deliver 200 votes, but Garza isn...

NICKNAMES

  he McHale Report's managing editor Scott Steinbeck was working at his desk in historic downtown when Max Maxwell, dean of the RGV sportswriters, approached him. "Don't you like Jason Moody, the BISD's new public information officer?" asked Maxwell. "He's neither here nor there for me. He seems like a pleasant enough fellow to me. Why?" "How did 'The Jackal' occur to you as a nickname?" "It's always fun to welcome a new face with a nickname. It makes him or her nervous because they lose sleep trying to ascertain the implications of being branded." "Then why 'The Jackal' for Moody?" "I have a predilection for alliteration and Jason and Jackal seemed to flow. I was thinking on the fly. Why. Do you have something better?" "It fits within your alliteration style. Call him Jason 'La Monarca' Moody." "I can go with that. Any particular reason on your part of that designatio...
