Martinsville Girls Basketball Team ‘Runs The Table’ During Regular Season

The speed limit on Highway 7, for 27 miles of a 31 mile stretch between Nacogdoches and Center, is 70 miles per hour, and if the school zone speed limit of 35 isn't flashing yellow caution lights, you may likely buzz right through Martinsville.

Will Ferrell Super Bowl Commercial Skipped Lufkin and Nacogdoches

Actually, only three select markets in the entire country saw the Will Ferrell Super Bowl commercial live on Sunday.

Of course, without plausible intervention, one might find himself lost in the "Real World" of employment , and that appears to be just what happened to yet, another former NFL player.
