This is gonna be fun! For starters, it seems like a name for this game should be established. The Fight for 146 or The Winfree Cup are a few thoughts, but they fall short of Red River Shootout or even Mid County Madness. Any thoughts? My predictions... Prediction 1. Dayton comes off a terrible loss to crosby and takes out their frustration on the Eagles. Eagle fans will chant "We Can, We Will" all the way back to the salt dome, however, it will do little to ease their collective suffering. Prediction 2. Dayton sets a school record for fumbles. The game remains close until the 4th quarter until kicker Carranco drinks a specially formulated cocktail made of horse sweat, vinegar, and adamantium which yields a bionic leg resulting in consecutive 82 yard field goals. Dayton wins 6-0.

Dayton V. North Forest
the_dude_abides replied to the_dude_abides's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I'll never forget the first time they played in front of our whitebread crowd at bronco stadium. They brought the fire. You cant beat a dude with a tuba shaking his tailfeather on the fifty yard line in front of a stadium full of people trying to figure out exactly what they are seeing. I smiled for days. -
Has anyone got a line on the weather for tonights game? The latest I've heard is no rain at kickoff. Also, I'm a little disappointed with the new north forest conglomeration because they've gotten rid of that sweet smiley band. I am really going to miss their half time show.

How did dayton do the last time they were in that district? oh yeah, playoffs.

Maybe daytons jv versus the liberty varsity would be a better matchup.

Brazoswood 28, Friendswood 18 - Final

Now you're over compensating. It's ok, there's no need to hide your insufficiency behind your remarks. Everyone knows how tough it must be for you to navigate this world when everyone you meet is just....better. -

FF...two points that pretty much sum it all up. Point A. You are a literal waste of skin. Point B. Mine is bigger than yours. -
Dayton at Kingwood park predictions?
the_dude_abides replied to knightrider's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
If I remember correctly, Kingwood Park had one heck of a kicker. Should be a much closer game than last year because KP can only get better. Is the whole team returning? -
Brazoswood 28, Friendswood 18 - Final

Friendswood fan, i believe the preferred nomenclature would be sycophant...I guess the one thing that friendswood doesn't win at is the spelling bee. And for the record, I would also like to beat your face. -
The staff at Dayton took a program that was in much worse shape than Ozen (a string of seasons with very few wins and a culture that expected not to win) and has been in the playoffs for 13years in a row. If you are looking for a staff to turn a program around, then Stewarts staff would be a good choice.
-
I think the staff at Dayton definitely has to be in the discussion. I know that the Stewart expects a lot from his coaches and the time they put in definitely translates to friday nights. Now what we are starting to see are former players come back and coach under stewart. One thing that Stewart staff has done very well is develop players. Dayton really hasn't had very many people transfer into the school due to the lack of jobs in the town, despite this, Stewart's staff has consistently put winners on the field.
-
How do you quantify best and complete? Is it experience both coaching and playing? Winning percentage, upgrades to facilities, making something from nothing or managing talent? What about moral fiber or luck. Would you factor in the percentage of players to receive scholarships. Are there extra points designated for players that actually graduate from college programs...points deducted for players that end up in jail within five years of leaving the program. It's an interesting question, but it's hard to qualify any statements that go beyond the usual pissing match of our team has been better than yours for longer.

BREAKING NEWS...DAYTON DOESNT LIKE FRIENDSWOOD. I'm sure we can all accept that for what it is. Big up to west end on a nice, succint post. I too believe it is diaper changing time. I could really care less about the bw/fw game but I wonder where friendswood fan is hiding at. Lil Tex does make a good point about the financial aspect. I'm proud of the type of teams dayton has fielded and the upgrades we have been able to make to the stadium despite having a small tax base to draw from. -
Dayton at Kingwood park predictions?
the_dude_abides replied to knightrider's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I think dayton will win by a pretty big number. I don't want to go to far out on a limb here because I've been served up a big platter of crow and it gave me indigestion. I do think that the bye week will allow the broncos to get ready for an undefeated district run. I would also say that the friendswood game was a big step for ploch I think he is only going to get better as the season progresses. Delasbour will be a big threat if he can improve his footwork at the snap and get a better handle on the ball when he gets it in the backfield. I noticed a couple of plays where he could have gotten big yards if he had control of the ball and it seems like he shuffles a bit before planting and exploding to the line, then again, he's an outstanding sophomore. I would like to give him some props because you can tell that he put in a lot of work in the weight room since last year, it's easy to see the change in his body composition. My biggest surprise was #12 at the linebacker spot. That kid is rangey (not sure how to spell that) and I think as the season progresses and he becomes more disciplined he will be an anchor on the defense. Go get em broncos. -
I'm done for a week. It's almost time for the broncos to lay a good old fashioned country whoopin' on Friendswood. And you're right Hawkeye, I'm thinking it's gonna be a no crow weekend for all of the bronco fans. Good luck to both teams, but more luck to the home team! Go BRONCHOS!
-
I'm excited about this weekend. The broncos have their home opener, college football kicks off, and long change starts in 4 hours. I'm coming out of sports hibernation to enjoy a fridge stocked with frosty beverages. LIFE IS GOOD!
-
Hey fat daddy, I prefer my crow wrapped in bacon and cooked over an open flame with some jalapenos and a can of bronco brew to wash it down. You do know that a mustang is just a broken bronco right? It's good to see that you guys are holding on to beating the broncos for three years in a row, i'm sure it helps when you are watching the broncos in the playoffs every year after your season ends.
-
Honestly, canes, this thread was getting a little boring with all the it should be a good game bullcorn. So hopefully, between now and Friday we can add a little fire to the thread. I'll do my part by saying that the entire Friendswood community will spend a few days whimpering in the fetal position after they watch their team get dismantled in Bronco stadium. Furthermore, the broncos will lay such a whipping on the mustangs that Friendswood's entire roster will have to enter counseling for post traumatic stress disorder. And finally, if it hasn't been said, DAYTON FOOTBALL IS BETTER THAN FRIENDSWOOD FOOTBALL.
-
I can imagine what Dayton vs. Friendswood will be like this friday night. Bronco fans celebrating. Friendswood fans pouting and making excuses as to why they got blasted.

Dayton Vs. Bay City
the_dude_abides replied to the_dude_abides's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I'm getting excited. I think this is going to be a good game for the broncos. The kids probably feel like they have something to prove this year. I also think delasbour (how do you spell that name) is going to mature alot at running back. If he can get all the fundamentals down he is going to be special to watch for the next few years. GO BRONCHOS -
Dayton Vs. Bay City
the_dude_abides replied to the_dude_abides's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
This thread is a little lopsided with no one from bay city chiming in. Next week should be pretty interesting when friendswood fan starts blathering. I was curious how the new wide receiver from crosby has looked in the scrimmages. Any word on how he will be utilized? Can I look forward to more bubble screens going for 60 yards? -
Dayton Vs. Bay City
the_dude_abides replied to the_dude_abides's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I remember listening on the liberty county flagship station 99.9. I also remember all the guys on my shift looking at me like I was crazy when I started yelling at from my console when that kick went through. By the way, I saw a post on the college football forum saying that Cody is #2 on the depth chart for the huskers. Man, this board definitely helps out on the graveyard shift. -

2 more days until the STAMPEDE!!! -
You are absolutely right. Kids today would probably end up with a record for doing half the junk we used to do in the name of school spirit.
