It’s very discerning to see everyone downing the “education” at WOS. There have been and are still excellent teachers on the staff and kids wanting to go further in life get a great education. The problem is that WOS has a larger majority of kids who may be challenged in one way or another and the lack of discipline in the classroom than other schools in the area. The curriculum is there. The ability and desire to learn may be a challenge to some, but it is maddening for some to act like the kids at WOS aren’t being taught. You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. (Especially in today’s society where everyone is offended by something).

You aren't taking into account the fact that the other teams return kids and possibly even improve. Every year. You can look at the comparable results with both Silsbee and HF and tell that they are pretty stinkin good. I personally watched Jasper play and know that they're also loaded with talented, athletic kids. Those are not bad losses for WOS.. I don't care how many returners they have. Calm down. The level of drama coming out of WOS over a few losses to some good teams makes me think that there isn't enough mental fortitude in the community to win any tough playoff games anyway. Cry me a river. The school has more state titles than most SeTx schools will ever have and are still competitive in what is an obvious down year. Give the guy some time before putting a for sale sign in the yard.

What kind of sandwiches will be at this meeting? 😁

Down years aren't supposed to happen when 16 starters return from a team that went 4 rounds deep in the playoffs though, and especially not with a program that has had this much historical success.

Probably the same as every school board meeting for the last several weeks. Nothing

Perhaps the public nature of this hiring process is an indication of the districts typical process for hiring actual educators. Those that complained about the academics realized it was futile long ago. Teachers left in mass exits. Last I heard they had a $10,000 signing bonus for new teachers. Why would that be?

Get ready to throw them V's back up

"I'm sorry, I'll be at the Nugget that night."

Unfortunately.. nobody cares about academic shortfalls in comparison. That's why coaches get away with yelling/cussing at kids but teachers don't. That's why coaches get away with all sorts of physical punishment for behavior and/or missing a practice but teachers don't if a kid refuses to do an assignment or skips class. That's why threads get created about complaining to school boards for gripes about a football coach.. but not about a principal or teachers.

Maybe Yaboy KtTraylor want mind wasting some gas money to come down from Dallas to enlighten the school board on they turned WOS into the Buna Boudain Balls….. of course with his help. 😀

You will have to take that up with my daughter. She wants me to cook for her baby shower. I'm trying to get her to settle on a Subway platter.

No football for you Friday. Better stay your but at the beach.

While whatever student or whoever did this shold be prosecuted in the fullest, Lumberton and more importantly all of the athletes who WOULDN'T do something like this don't deserve to be punished for someone elses actions. You start doing that then maybe you should start prosecuting a common criminals family for what he/she does. Does that make sense?

Calm down karen hes just stiring the pot😂

And if it’s not even anyone from Lumberton? A lot of people think it’s not anyone from Lumberton

Agreed. If the team that played Vidor shows up we're in trouble but if the team that played the last two games shows up it will definitely be a fight.

Red and blue looks like Lumberton but quite possibly could be local punks making it look like Lumberton. A lot of monetary damage. If caught, they or their parents need to pay.

Not to mention I believe, iirc, he was there under subpoena (I.e., he didn’t have a choice to NOT attend). And then it’s a matter of answering questions you are asked. I am quite certain he would have probably preferred to be ANYWHERE else on that day.

Don’t know nothing about the kid that was kicked off, other than I’ve heard from several in the community that he was a turd. Two sides to every story. As far as the Carl Broussard story. CT was a character witness. He can only testify as to what he knew the man to be. I’m fairly confident that CT didn’t condone he’s actions and what he was found guilty of. I know Broussard personally, myself. He coached at my high school in 1995, and I ran into him over the years. What he did was beyond reproach, but that’s not the person I knew. To say CT didn’t have morals, and wasn’t a man of a character as some in West Orange want ppl to believe is bull crap. They are reaping what they have sown.

When then? You said yourself it’s been going on for years? Isn’t that more important than the football program? Why is everyone so mad about a losing season but don’t care about the most important issue which is the education for these kids? Do you really hear yourself? First time for a lacking football season in forever, but haven’t had academic excellence in forever. Which is more important to address at the school board meeting?

If they were 14.2 would be here so I am going to go with no.

Yeah, don't remind me 😂 Now that I think about it the night I believe you're talking about the fog rolled in at the same time the smoke did, you literally couldn't see anything across the field 😂

And that kind of attitude plays right into something I brought up last with West Brook. Kids don't want to play for that kind of coach. And so they go elsewhere to play.

Also keep in mind we usually have extra coverage for 3 games. We do the entire show from one location and send reporters for live postgame reports at two other games. So in reality we have three featured games.

Oh yeah, its good there were no cell phones back in the day, a lot of us would have been in big trouble. Some of the Ned/PNG stuff that used to go on would have had people in jail back in the day. Luckily most of that has cooled down in the last 20 years or so.

Keep the circus where hes at.

overall record is 45-15-3 for the Trojans in this game, Shepherd wins last year 18-14. and Shepherd has owned the trojans 4 out of the last 5... Should be a good one, and hope the trojans play like they did the 2nd half against diboll, exp the last 9 min when Monroe went out on the cheap shot

I reckon it'll be a little louder than normal. I wonder if the marshes will be lit on fire for this one...... (Remember those days @Big Daddy Cool ?? 😁)

Well to be fair Bridge City had a pretty good b-ball team year before last. Football though, they're screwed. Tigers just need to make it out of games like this injury free. Gonna be conservative here and go 49 - 7.

Only back in the "who has the most penetrations" era.

Just have to stay away from its rear end. What are you guys thinking will happen?

I was waiting to see if the two local TV stations were going to make this their game of the week. One (KFDM) has already posted this to be their GOW. Now waiting on KBMT. I wanted to see if any of the two would go with another, more important game than going with what they both do every year, have MCM (regardless of situation). IMO, these games this week are worthy of GOW: Barbers Hill @ Port Arthur Memorial Little Cypress-Mauriceville @ Lumberton Heck even this one: Beaumont West Brook @ Beaumont United Come on KBMT, do something different.

You guys have definitely made the post season predictions a mess. Congrats on the win. This should be an interesting game this week.

Been keeping up with this game for over 60 years. Rarely, if ever, have I thought it was a cinch. I’ve seen the underdogs win this one wwwaaayyy to many times. This year —— just don’t see it. Not even this age old rivalry will give the Bulldogs enough to win this game. Heck, Ned would have trouble with the Vidor rivalry. Might win but it’d be a struggle, lol.. But don’t be surprised if this game is not as lopsided as it should be. It’ll be “Release the Kracken” time in Nederland.

Holy Moly, no wonder Caesar’s Palace had the point spread so low. Them guys don’t miss nothing. ☠️☠️☠️😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️

I didn’t live in this area in 2009, so I have no clue. Mag West is doing well in a district that’s way better then the one y’all are dominating. Longview is good, but y’all are beatable.

I didn’t realize we were missing 5 starters against Livingston. In Matthews interview he said he hopes to have them all back for Huffman.

after watching yall play PAM...no lol.

i agree, again, the sideline is the problem

Bridge City might ought to go ahead and let any basketball starters start practicing. Use back ups if they are football starters.

It's Senior Night for Silsbee so I look for all the seniors to get plenty of action in this game.

QB Brisbane 9-18 (50%) 113 yards, 2 TD's 1 INT RB Martin 11 carries, 66 yards 2 TD RB Kibbles 6 carries, 105 yards 1 TD WR Miller 8 catches, 102 yards 2 TD's Total offense 323 yards (113 passing, 210 rushing) 44 offensive plays (7.3 yards per play)

you guys always have an amazing team!! Top of the top notch programs!! congrats on a big win!!

Somebody stay in those feelings! Btw, I think BH wins this week.

I can’t stand a Large portion of the Republican Party. Most of them are RINO’s but that’s what I am stuck with until a 3rd party comes along that can actually win. But I despise the communist Left. I am still waiting on a answer from big girl about these individuals. Henry Kissinger Janet Reno Harriet Miers Joshua Bolton Eric Holder Lois Lerner Bryan Pagliano Bill Barr Chad Wolf All held in contempt of Congress None served a day. Can you answer Why Big Girl?

Honestly, that’s a fair question. The answer lies within yourself though. It’s the same reason you never point out (either due to ignorance or blind faith) the infinite negative stories about the left. We all do it. There is no middle ground. That’s the biggest problem and it’s promulgated by the media. YOU and your far left leaning associates on here won’t promote where your party makes huge mistakes, and folks like Reagan and Unwoke (whom I tend to agree with more) won’t ever promote the flaws on the right. It’s a fair question, but you already know the answer because you live it. We, to a degree, all live it. Someone tell me I’m wrong.

I have said from word go Hickman was placed in a no win situation. If WOS went udefeated this season, it would have been “ anyone could win with what has been built here”. We see whats happening with a poor record. Then you throw in the race factor and how some were pushing for a first Coach….he hasnt had a chance from the start.

On a plus note, WOS will forever more be used an exhibit in every debate from now on about which is more important… athletes or coaches. You might not be able to win the Kentucky derby with a mule, but about a dozen million dollar race horses lose the derby every year.

oh trust me I do and will. The DAWGS have endured our share of losses to Blue&Silver over the years. Personally, I have always made it clear that I have such a high level of respect for the WOS football program and their accomplishments if I am not mistaken yalls fans are bit disgruntled about the down year so far. That said, it's pretty sad that literally one fan has at least said " good game".In case you forget Jasper is going thru changes as well. Might I add I am so proud of our young men this season! But even when we Jasper got beat 53 to 0 I was one of the first to come tip my hat and be courteous enough to congratulate on the game won. @One4All thank you for the sportsmanship. also @WOSdrummer99
