I am always good for a good football discussion. I might even buy you a beer if it is entertaining enough! I personally have always enjoyed what you post whether I agree or disagree. That’s kinda what makes it fun.....and American!

Gary does the best play by play and sounds the same as he did I would listen in the 80s. Great job....but if I can see it with my own eyes, I have to! Besides that you can catch the replay the next day!

Pleasant Grove and Cuero as well? Van lost last week

I don’t want to sound like sour grapes because I am very happy with the win. That was a salty, well coached team with some athletes. However, special teams did indeed keep letting them back in the ball game. On the same token, special teams is a phase of the ballgame and they won that phase. I am sure it is something that will be addressed. Offensively and defensively; I feel the game belonged to WOS.

I for one am!!! I am calling for his head and shoulders on a bust in the Texas High School Football Hall of Fame

I agree with what you are saying. I also think that many are just unsure of the true identity of this team. WOS missed their first two games and then played a Bridge City team the first game, that had been through the same situation for game #1. Silsbee was great test but it seemed they had an identity crisis about that same time getting romped later by LCM. The Kennedale game showed some muster! But then the district isn’t that strong, first playoff game is weak and round two wasn’t a convincing win in some people’s eyes. I am of the opinion with back up QB in and a two score lead...it was fine. Just get out of the building with a W. I don’t doubt this teams POTENTIAL....but I do understand the skepticism of some.

Also, reading the Silsbee thread reminded me that last year Carthage barely escaped a first round defeat at the hands of Silsbee. Carthage won state. There are no bonus points or style points to help a team in the next rounds. A win means you still play and a there are no moral victories to help a team build for next week....just win baby!!

Well said. Last year is last year and we just need to be thankful that we were able to witness it. The two years prior, WOS got into some tougher games and were still able to play in the final game. I am not saying it is a given WOS will be there this year. I do trust this coaching staff that has a proven track record and do think these athletes have not yet reached their full potential as a team. This young teams growth was also stunted by Harvey...some coaching, growing up and teachable moments were lost. Let’s enjoy each step this years team climbs and I truly hope that I am driving to Dallas in December. If not, I still have to doff my cap to one hell of a run and hope that it is the starting point of another!

Lucky for us (ladies and gentlemen), we have the quintessential genius on the board!!

I know some folks in Allen and from what they tell me....The city of Allen doesn’t feel like this will always be the case. They are a “newer” city with lots of development but are land locked. It wouldn’t be long where having multiple high schools would be a waste.

Makes me think of the movie Joy Ride

Soulja I have seen your criticism of his rankings each week. There are a few that I might swap but this doesn’t seem outside the box. It is after all a poll based on opinion....and most on this board would not have identical top 10s. What would be your top 10 and which of his rankings gives you the most heartburn? I’m not calling you out....I am truly curious.

The 2000 WOS vs Lincoln was certainly a good one!

Who has the ball?

Should be about ball game, right?

Thank you for the update

How much time is left?

Know how HJ scored its second TD?

20-6 WOS

Every team has a bad night. Hopefully the Mustangs get out of this one with a W.

Any updates?

57-7 start of the 4th

Thank you

Any updates?

I hear you and that is very true. What even got me started on the post is that I hear/read comparisons between this team and last years team and the fact that WOS is "down" in certain areas. While it is true, it is about as obvious as saying our rainfall totals are down since Harvey went away.
