EAGLEFOREVER

One of the reasons I give Newton a chance is because Silsbee is slow out of the gate for some reason. If this was week ten instead of week two it might be a different story. Win or lose this game will answer a lot of questions for me.

Good luck to all, may everyone stay healthy and safe travels to all. Let's go high school football.

Looks like y’all turned the corner.

That wasn’t me, everybody has their zealots.

I have yet to see a ranking win a ball game, rank us where you will. I’ll take the trophy.

Friday Newton @ Silsbee as soon as I get off work.

That’s what you said last year. Silsbee scored and drew blood first, then the beat down began.

LCM in trouble, don't really know what they are walking into. WOS big, hope everybody stays healthy.

maybe they turned the corner. we'll see. BU

The defense is what I need to know about. This game should provide that information. A low scoring close game with either outcome would be a good indicator.

Let's get it started. Newton has a 31 game winning streak. Does Silsbee break it or does it go on? It's early in the year and I need to see the defense tested. This game will answer a lot of questions for me. Newton in a close one.

Well the time has come. The waiting is over. Good luck to all and may everybody stay healthy. Remember everybody this is high school football, a bunch of kids that have sweated a lot for this opportunity. May the best team win(unless you play us). Everybody have a good year. Let the games begin.

Work vs. Work

I’ve seen both of them scrimmage. Kirbyville is in trouble.

A lot of guesses

Is it right? IMHO no, but putting restrictions in place that would hurt the eligibility of an honest transfer would not be right either. In my day if you transferred you sat out of varsity play for one year no if, ands or buts. Yet that wasn't right for the kids to suffer because the move was made because a better job was found or mom and dad split and the one with custody left town. This isn't a perfect world and there will always be somebody try to cheat the system. It is up to each individual to make the right decision, it always is(the clerk gives you back too much change, do you tell her or pocket the windfall.) Honesty is the best policy. A mans word used to mean something, now a days it's hard for a mans written word to mean anything. No system will ever be perfect as long as people try to cheat it.

Newton needs more conditioning, everybody walking around and confused on offense toward the end. They need to find somebody that can catch. Newton’s defense needs work in the secondary. The run defense wasn’t bad but still needs some work. Nederland’s quarterback has a good arm and a quick release, their running back runs hard and he is quick. Looks like they have a couple of good receivers that can catch. Nederland's defense looked good at stopping the run, but weak at the pass, maybe defense was setup to stop the run. Lumberton has to learn how to stop penetration if they are going to run that offense. Lumberton’s defense is not terrible, just read keys better. As it looks right now Newton will have to rely heavily on its defense for a third run, but the year is young and things can get worked out or changed, better conditioning is a must.

Thank you for the wonderful job you do.

What time does the scrimmage start?

I understand it, it's just a shame that happened. I really thought y'all had turned a corner when I heard that score.

What happened to that defense after that game?

I think it is the same one, not sure.

He’s not leaving, he came back. I feel a little better now about Newton.

Who is the player from Newton?
