tonight at the Houston Touchdown Club. Two great

players who make our job easy. More impressive than their play is how they lead with Attitude, Effort, and Focus on the daily.

Baby Boy got to play in his first football game ever after 12 years of roaming around numerous field houses. Played LB and WR and did it the right way.
Time slows down for no man. Seems like yesterday I was watching big brother play middle school football and his two little brothers were terrorizing the coaches office. Now big brother is coach and the two terrors are bonafide studs. Tough loss but congrats on a special season
Year 23 of coaching Texas High School Football begins early this morning. To say I am fired up to be coaching
@Brodie_Dale10
is a complete understatement. Dear Lord, keep him safe and may you be seen in his actions.
Tonight, 37 yrs ago @ Baybrook Mall, the unthinkable happened when mom and dad were shot. By God’s Grace, Mom survived but Dad didn’t. 37 years later I still swell with pride over who gave me my last name & the numerous stories I hear of his

Biscuit has been asking for me to come have lunch with her all year.Shoutout to the awesome
@mistre825
for finding coverage for my class so I could enjoy some whataburger with my baby girl! I need to make sure to do it again cause once she gets to middle school she’ll be too cool
Watch out
@WarnerCFISD
Biscuit and Coach Dale are about to tear the dance floor up at the Daddy Daughter Dance. Oh how I love her so 😍! Time needs to slow down.
Congrats to Big Jim Phillips on his retirement from public education. He taught me so much about coaching and loving kids. There was never a day I felt like I worked for him but always with him. Retirement won’t last long as he has already been hired as a private school HFC

Last Daddy-Daughter dance with my baby biscuit. She danced her heart out and now we are headed to a late dinner of Ribeye steaks. Time as flown by so quick. Oh how I love her!!!❤️ 🥰

Baby Girl was asked to read Luke Chapter 2 tonight at our candle light Christmas service and did awesome. Proud daddy right here. Merry Christmas and God Bless!
I have had many experiences and accomplishments in my life but the best thing has been being a dad. Happy 12th Birthday to my main man Brodie, who made me dad.
11 yrs ago today this little bucket of sass was born. A true miracle baby as she was a 2 vessel chord pregnancy which often ends unfortunately. God truly had His hands on
@DaleColleen
and Aubrey for those 9 months. Beyond blessed & thankful to be her daddy. Happy B-Day Biscuit!
15 years ago today, this beauty said “I do” and I am forever thankful.Many changes have happened, good and bad, but my love and appreciation continues to grow.Cheers to many more New Years. (Last night on earth with hair, shaved head next day for honeymoon and it never grew back)

coaching ended last night. I wish my kids could have taken pics with all their favorite senior players but we couldn’t get to them all.

In a district with several offered defensive players, my man was selected by the opposing coaches as the best defender in the district and he still needs a home for next year.

finished his senior year with 139 Total Tkls, 13 TFL (4 Sacks), and 1 Def TD. Every week he played on a field with several Div 1 offered athletes and every week his play jumped out on film. His approach to practice, off-season, and games is unmatched. This Stud needs a home
In 1985 our family was rocked with the murder of my father/attempted murder of my mom. We were broken and 2 years later a man stepped into our lives and was our hero and center of our family from there on,until cancer took him 3 years ago today. Miss you Pops!

The Good Lord and my family knows I can be hard on
@Brodie_Dale10
but boy I’m proud of him. Dropped 1.5 sec off his 400m in 1 week, studied hard & exceeded our expectations on 2 tests 🧑🏫 & spent all day Sat umpiring to save $ for his future truck.

Baby Boy
@Brodie_Dale10
ran his first ever open 400m dash tonight and did quite well. He finished 2nd 🥈 overall and his 4x400 team placed 2nd 🥈 as well. I love how he competes.
I have spent 18 years now helping raise so many youngsters as a coach. At times my own kids have missed out on attention. The silver lining in this current situation is that my son has found two new loves away from organized school. Football and fishing. Can’t get enough of it
A little competition today where the Mustangs were competing for the right to ditch their cotton t-shirt for a Dry-fit shirt. The winners had their cotton T’s ripped off by teammates. Even our fearless kicker got in on the action.

Congrats to
@RanchWrestling
for winning the girls regional championship as well as Coach Potter and Coach Thompson on their regional Coach of the year honors.

Baby Boy got him a new fishing rig with his gift cards so we hit the neighborhood lake for a little fishing to close out spring break. Feeling well rested and ready for school tomorrow. Excited to watch him run at his first track meet ever this Wednesday
Great post turkey-day football as the Dale’s got to watch their favorite football team 🤘. Baby girl got to take a pic with her favorite football player

! Today we celebrate the 15th Anniversary of her 29th Birthday with some freshman football 🏈 and some 7th grade volleyball 🏐. She is the glue that holds this family together especially in the fall. Enjoy your day babe.
It was a blast watching my boy play this year at the middle school level. I can’t tell you how excited I am to get to coach him the next four years. It is amazing how much he has developed in just one year. I love how he truly enjoys the game 🏈
Beautiful afternoon hanging out with baby boy as he does his best to emulate his favorite Cypress Ranch Mustang football player

After running into several old friends at Coaching School I went back into the photo archives of my phone and ran into this from 2015. It was true long before then and will be true long after now. It hits home even more now that my kiddos are getting older.

Four relaxing days and nights on the Frio River to relax and re-charge the battery with my favorite people before a football season I can’t wait to start. Happy 4th Peeps! 🇺🇸 🏈 💥

If we died with him,

If we disown him,

if we are faithless,
he remains faithful,
for he cannot disown himself.

No excuses and relentlessly chasing PR’s and the best version of yourself on the daily.
We have worked for weeks to get to this point. From not being able to get the bar on his back, to squatting with weight in competition! Here is Cason’s 90lb PR from last night. So proud of his heart and determination.
