We could play once a week or something. [/quote] Yes, I think we could put something together. Lets get some interest going next April before school lets out and se what we can do. I think it worked out pretty good for our first year. We will make even better next year. Lets keep in touch. [/quote] Sounds good!

[quote name="Hawkeye" post="827691" timestamp="1282274197"] I ain't got a horse in this race  ;D get it? But WOS doesn't have a chance. FW is too big and too strong (and fast)! I've seen them beat us (Dayton) for the last several years and if they have anywhere close to the same team as the last two years it's done. WOS should just look at this game as another scrimmage.   [/quote] LOL... WOS always has a chance...

[quote name="rykerx144" post="827688" timestamp="1282273894"] Someone said Vidor was big??  I guess I missed the big ones.  Definetly the smallest Vidor team Ive seen!! [/quote] Vidor defense was small, but the offensive line was pretty dang big.

No one said that speed was going to make WOS beat FW. The point I made was a single, solitary point. WOS can run circles around FW in the speed dept.  I never claimed that one should infer anything from that fact. [/quote] And I am sure you are faster than Lake Travis. Congratulations. What else do you want us to say? Folks are asking who is going to win the game and you keep saying yall are faster. We understand your belief, but again - how do you know you are faster? PS - I think only a couple people have predicted a 20 point win, many others have it close. I have no clue - never seen you play. If Dayton is a gauge, and it may or may not be, then you could be in trouble. But I take scrimmages with a grain of salt. FW scored on every possession against Galveston Ball last year in our scrimmage, and look how well Ball ended up doing! We will only know after the game. But I will be back to talk to Gasilla!! [/quote] Make sure you are because I sure as heck will be!

Not if they play like those Grandma's say they did. Vidor isn't terrible.

I have heard it from a reliable source (2 players great grandmothers) that LCM is in for a long season... ;D

[quote name="rykerx144" post="827649" timestamp="1282271807"] WOS QB looks very good.  Very quick.  He definetly dont have pass protection.  To his credit all his yards gained passing was thrown on the run or on a screen.  That small back 43 is hard to keep up with.  With 5 on one side, 18 on the other, and 43 in the back field who needs protection.   As for Vidor, my Grandmother taught me if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything at all!!  So thats all im going to say other than going to be a long year!! [/quote] I didn't see what you saw, apparently. Vidor put some pressure on Garrett early, but as the game progressed he had more time. The line looked better as the game went on. It is just a scrimmage, but what you are looking for right now is progress and I saw a bunch, not only from last week, but from the start of the game to the end. Hopefully, the trend will continue.

[quote name="skipper" post="827417" timestamp="1282249681"] so its still a go but for 5pm [/quote] Ok Skipper, what the hell does that mean? The irginal said Freshman started at 5, does that mean the Varsity is at 5?

Hey Bulldog, you think we could have a league next year. We could play once a week or something.

Polls are just like "Pickem" contests. The established and older polls are going to go with teams that are consistent and established. The newer and less known ones are going to pick a few darkhorses to try and "one up" or gain ground on the older polls. They also have a tendency to pick teams local to the persons making the polls and have an aire of "Homerism"... I don't pay much attention to any polls other than the Coaches Poll. If a coach thinks a team is good or is going to be good, then they probably will be.

So, if I show up with my WOS garb on will that get me a few "high five's"? ;D

Bulldog8, now that I know you, don't tell me that you are one of those old school Bulldog fans who think when other teams do well it was luck but when your team does well it was skill and good coaching, are you? Please say it ain't so... Bulldog fans have come a long way over the last couple of years, we ALL have those one or 2 who just can't be objective, but you didn't strike me as one of those.

Griffin is the QB at Baylor and I think he is a Sophomore, but he also was injured last year and completely blew out his knee. Hard to come back from that.

[quote name="Jackthehammer" post="826308" timestamp="1282052760"] I can't believe some of the off the wall predictions Im reading. After what Dayton did to WOS I would not get to carried away with my predictions. Nederland on the other hand had a good scrimmage against FB. I was told by a Nederland coach that they have much more depth this season than last. Especially on defense. I look for a good game. Nederland should win this. [/quote] I think that all real Mustang fans know this will be a close game. Even the last couple of years, even with the final score being lopsided, the games were close until late in the gameor second half.

[quote name="rjn75" post="826184" timestamp="1282008267"] lmao [/quote] What are you laughing at?

[quote name="fwstangs" post="826145" timestamp="1282001176"] [quote author=Gasilla link=topic=71652.msg825761#msg825761 date=1281896210] I agree, that is about as bad a first outing as I have seen from WOS. Got a long way to go. Dayton looks very good for this early in the season. [/quote] But everyone knows Dayton does not play well early in the season, that is the only reason FW has been able to beat them, right guys? [/quote] I have no idea what you are talking about...

[quote name="rjn75" post="826159" timestamp="1282002634"] i doubt fw will be too concerned with the wos speed.  they face that  on a regular basis.  im so sick of  people talking about speed and fw not being prepared for it.  every year we hear the same garbage.  dayton is so fast, bmt central is so fast, nederland is so fast.  look at the results folks ots a football game not a track event.  i dont know about everyone else but i know fw puts football players on the field and good ones.im no sure why people think fw is slow,they have speed in the right positions just maybe not the wealth of it as some teams  once again they have football players that are very well coached and they flat execute better then pretty much everyone.  with that being said leave the track shoes at home it wont work to well for anyone. [/quote] You know, I've been reading all you FW folks posts and I was thinking the same thing... I wish I had a dime for every team that has come into a game talking about how they would outsize us and out depth us... It don't matter, we face that crap all the time. And regardless of what happened in our scrimmage against Dayton, unless you FW people have had your head stuck in the sand for the last 20 yrs (inlcuding one FW pounding back in 2000), you should know that predicting a 20+ point blowout is foolish. Dayton had the benefit of getting us in our first action against another team this year. You won't have that benefit. They also played 3 more games than we did last year which makes a difference. Just make sure you guys don't disappear after all these lofty predictions... Oh yeah, you guys have also made it abundantly clear that you are 6-0 against Dayton... Dayton has never beaten us in a real game either...

[quote name="strongend" post="825808" timestamp="1281905758"] Didnt WOS schedule C.O. Wilson and some Beaumont school?  I heard there were some good 7 on 7 action between C.O. and WOS.  Hope that translates into a good game.  Does anyone know when and where they play? [/quote] Yes they do play each other this year and I am not sure yet where they play. They also played one another 3 times this year in 7 on 7 with WOS winning 2 of those, but all three were close and intense. I look for the real game to be that way as well.

Turf or grass?

I agree, that is about as bad a first outing as I have seen from WOS. Got a long way to go. Dayton looks very good for this early in the season.

Honestly, I have missed only a hand full of games since WOS became WOS. I remember I was in the 6th grade when the school started and we went to all of the games then with my buds, I didn't miss any in highschool my first 2 years then I was playing my second 2 yrs. I missed a couple of games while off at college, but I still drove home for most of them and caught all of the playoff games. Since I graduated from college I have not missed many.

While I agree that this is the toughest district in the state. I do not think any of those teams will win it all this year.

Some one had said WOS would only have 30 kids? [/quote] I counted 35 in varsity jerseys last Friday. Somewhere around 30 is the usual number, though.

Like a yearly case of the Flu... I knew this argument would surely surface again...

I agree with 77. Nobody knows nuttin right now. It sure is fun to read the debate, though.
