What man????????????????? Crosby used to beat Drew????????????? Where the heck did you get the inference that I said joining the two would make a difference?????????????? Several times a couple of years ago, including in Riordan's interview, it was said that Crosby never made it past the third round. What are YOU talking about man? Don't put words in my mouth to try to make a point you missed on. I don't say we're big and bad, I let the writers say that then I relay it accordingly. So yeah, we have piled up wins over Porter and Galena Park, as well as Dayton, Nederland, King, PNG, Angleton, Brenham, Hutto and Port Lavaca. I know who the "powerhouses" are, which exactly why I don't worry about those teams east of the river but that's "poo-pooing" them in some kind of way? lol, smh. There was more than one publication last year that picked us to win, this year both DC's and FNF have us in the semis. This is the title prognostication from this year, maybe my data analyst made this up for me and you and the PNG folks are the ones that are correct though: 1,086 Cougar14.2 Members 1,086 1,977 posts LocationCrosby, TX Posted 25 July · Report post LSG 2016 5A Championship Predictions By Michael Wright Pin It Updated: July 20, 2016 Some shakeups at the top?

Wait, a PNG fan posts a video from 1999. I say it's irrelevant due to the entire Texas landscape changing since then. You say PNG got to the title game 39 years after Crosby. I say that some people don't think "Crosby" even got there in '60 and you start telling me about what COULD'VE happened historically all over SETX???????? Then you go further on a tangent somewhere just to come back the initial point that I made which is "who cares about nearly 20 years ago". You're saying don't "poo-poo" what PNG did nearly two decades ago and then immediately talk out of the other side of your mouth and say " . . . 2 years ago or even last year won't mean squat." So care about 20 years ago but don't care about a time that actually still has players on the team? It's typical SETX logic at its finest. At the end of the day the statewide media doesn't try to write false stories and prognosticators don't intentionally try to make wrong picks. As the landscape sits today they only write about and pick Crosby, you "poo-pooing" a title prediction from someone in Dallas or Austin that get paid to do it in favor of trying to school me on school's SETX history is exactly why people can't see the forest for the trees and get continually crushed when they roll into Houston or Central Texas.

Completely different times Grad. Most say the "Crosby Cougars" have never played in a state championship game because the last time Crosby High School made the title game the school wasn't integrated with kids that played at Charles R. Drew. You can say we've never been, just like the vast majority of all the schools that are benefiting from the Houston population explosion. Same schools SETX gets continually punished by, even though they have history not a single kid at GR, Foster, Elkins or Manvel would even know about because their school didn't exist. Prep posting that film makes PNG look even more sad to me because it means they actually used to be able to compete not that long ago, nearly 20 years later they have a declining enrollment and live in an area that's contracting in general. 3 of the 4 teams that played in the 5A title games were first time schools that have been open less than 10 years, Cedar Park is considered a traditional power and didn't even exist the last time PNG made the title game. That history means a lot over there, it doesn't mean squat to anybody in the Houston area because they cheer for teams that are good in this era. La Marque has 5 state championships, you think that still carries weight over here? North Shore won a title in '03 and still couldn't wait to get rid of the coach because they saw Katy, Pearland, Cy Ranch, etc. were all playing for titles in the mean time. People here get stuck on history, which is exactly why people have to start thread on what it takes to get un-stuck from that history.

For whatever reason, you have to read the link on your phone or tablet. It says you need to be a subscriber when you look at it on your desk top.

We're talking about who is and isn't what all day and I find this while sifting through some bed time research. I mean, it's not people from Crosby actually writing this stuff. Undoubtedly people that do it for a living have a more favorable view of Crosby than the experts on this board: [Hidden Content]

Dang it man, out of likes for the day. Funny how some people interpret things. +1

Glad you got that on VHS, otherwise none of the kids in high school would be old enough to remember. Most weren't born yet. The seniors in that game have a 20 year class reunion coming up soon. PNG was Prep, Crosby is.

IDK, call up coach Martin and ask Manvel where their rings are? Learned something else now. Manvel is no longer a powerhouse because they don't have a ring. I asked you to keep it coming and you are BigDog, I'm being educated free of charge.

You have way too much faith in them. It's about time for them to lose to our 4th place team again which means another L to Kingwood Park or either Humble.

No, we have our players coached by Riordan and you have your players coached by Nuemann. That's why I'm confident. Y'all couldn't even beat the Flannigan.

I do, today I've learned that realistically Manvel is the only 5A powerhouse in Houston since no other team have more playoff wins than us either.

Yeah, heard the same thing about Angleton the last two years. 38-15 one time and 34-0 the other. Manvel puts 50 on us they win, if they don't we'll be leading off High School Football live.

Well, one thing is certain. If we get Ned in the playoff it's a for sure W. I wish there was some way we could get y'all in the second round.

Dude, can you please find something that wasn't played at a '70 stag party? You can't find any Eminem or something?

I'm sure you'll be there to watch us since PNG will already be at home. Thanks, booster club needs all the money they can get.

Yeah, hopefully we get off to another disappointing 11-0 start this year. . . .

We play them week 1 down in Brazoria county. I'm not sure I want to go back to NRG again? Smh.

It's cool man, I know you're not as good at this as me. Some of us still need to use the book on the test.

Like I said, cool. Foster isn't a powerhouse either because they've never been past the third round. Neither has FB Elkins or FB Ridge Point before they beat us last year. I'm just learning all types of new information today. Thanks and keep it coming.

Yeah, I was being realistic though.

I'm cool with that. Let's me know we're doing pretty damn good if you have to go back 5 years to grab a W. Appreciate it.

Never heard of 3 doors down, I was thinking something more like this: [Hidden Content]

If you can't beat Nederland your response is invalid.

If Crosby were to go D1, the rematch would most likely happen in the second round.
