[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="701154" timestamp="1257639442"] Speaking of young, Silsbee will return 8 offensive and 7 defensive starters for next year. ;) On offense they lose QB, RB, and a WR. On defense they lose 2 DL and 2 LB. [/quote] Well, due to injuries (and a suspension) WOS will only be losing 2 on defense (DL and Safety) and 2 on offense (WR and OL). We didn't start out quite as young as we are now, but it's part of the game. Of the 9 underclassmen on defense, 5 are Soph and we also have a Freshman who spells the senior safety.

Dang, some good games at Stallworth this weekend. May have to head to Baytown this weekend!

[quote name="Rake1" post="700679" timestamp="1257609775"] Moral victory I guess. I wonder if they will put an asterisk out beside the result ;) ;) in order to show that there are issues with the outcome. Kinda like winning the Daytona 500 due to rain after 400 miles, almost there but not quite ;D ;D. Things that make you go......HHHHMMMMMM! [/quote] Moral victory? That's funny being that all of our victories were on the field. Why are you so concerned about the Middle School district anyway? I think you have more involved in this than you are letting on... ;) THAT makes me go hmmmmmmmmm. ;D

[quote name="kvillefan1992" post="698696" timestamp="1257515809"] We'll be cheering them on through the playoff season! [/quote] Here's to hoping that season is a short one... like, one game! ;D ;D ;D

If Silsbee comes in and plays, it will not be close. Sorry ETBU, you're still my boy! ;) ;D

Oh my, Jasper must have lossed that toss... That will practically be a home game for gilmer.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="700496" timestamp="1257582749"] So much for Coldspring "throwing" this game. ;) ;D Looks like they said, "Bring on them Mustangs!!" [/quote] I don't think anyone ever thought he would "throw" anything. I guess the other way to approach this game is to beat the other team so bad in the first qtr that your starters don't have to play the other 3... ;D And they are going to get the Mustangs, it won't be Liberty next week...  ;) ;D

[quote name="PVT Ryan" post="700356" timestamp="1257574001"] In years past, many 21-3A opponents facing WOS had non-stop 2nd half clocks.  I don't believe there was one this year.  Is WOS losing ground or are the other teams gaining ground? [/quote] I think HJ, BC and OF were better this year than they have been. Just look at their records and games against non-district opponents. I watched OF go toe to toe with Newton. In years past, that game would be ugly.

WOS has been getting better every week since the Silsbee game. Bad snaps are gone, penalties have been minimized (although we did still have a 60 yd TD called back). Running game is back! We have looked much better the past few weeks. I think we are peaking as well. Should be a good game against Coldspring.

OK... I gotta give props here... How about in the first half when they scored their first TD when #7 faked the handoff on the dive. Did a "360" with the ball behind his back. Stopped and threw a perfect strike to his recieer running down the field????? I was standing with td when that happened and we just looked at each other and were, like, WTF??? That kid has some serious skill running that offense. I hate that OF will not have him for another year. I hear is a really good kid as well.

[quote name="Rake1" post="699277" timestamp="1257556590"] Gas, I can't speak for Silsbee on the 7th grade championship but I do know that all the games were not played. I guess we can amend the district championship claim to a more factual "district leader" since they lack 2 games on their record ;D ;D ;D. Congrats. Good luck to the Stangs tonite and in the playoffs. Rake1 [/quote] You can only be the "leader" when the race is not over. The race is over, we are the champions. Period. ;D ;D ;D

[quote name="Silsbee88" post="699154" timestamp="1257546580"] [quote author=Rake1 link=topic=61945.msg699142#msg699142 date=1257546191] Kinda seems like 6 degrees of seperation, you may have dated Paris Hilton with that kind of logic!! A pre district game doesn't count does it? So I guess now maybe we can revert to scrimmages and settle the issue ;D ;D. "We beat you in a scrimmage and our regular game got cancelled so we get the win, hooray we are the champs!!". Incomplete schedule....period. [/quote] Gasilla's light doesn't burn that bright.....besides WOS is always the UNDISPUTED DISTRICT CHAMPS RIGHT! There is no such thing as a DISTRICT CHAMPION in middle school....only self proclaimed. See you in 2010!  WOS undefeated in district 2009 [/quote] 88... my light burns bright enough to know hypocrisy when I see it.  ;) Don't try to turn this into another, "hey gang, let's gang up on the big bad WOS thread" either. You did the same thing you claim coop did and you got called out for it. Don't act like a little ticked off teenager now and start throwing insults at me personally unless you want it back at you. And, lay off the smite button because I can do it just as well as you can. Rake, you can look at it any way you want. The bottom line is that our record in district is better than anyone else. There is no such thing as an "incomplete" season. If you don't play the whole thing then it goes to the team with the best record. Period. And Silsbee sure as heck was claiming a district title last year with their 7th grade so apparently there ARE district champions.

No, it's not. WOS finished the district schedule 4-0. The only district game missing was HJ, but they have lost. BC cancelled the second time, but they had already played them and won earlier. So WOS is the district champion.

[quote name="badndn" post="698905" timestamp="1257526782"] To outscore your opponents 268-0 at any age level is unreal! No fumbles for a TD or bad snaps into the endzone or missed tackles for long TD's. What are the odds? Will be interesting to see these kids in the near future. Could keep Dan Ray in the Mustang saddle for several more years knowing what is coming. Congratulations to the kids and coaches! [/quote] Thanks ndn!

Like I said, we look forward to playing the mustangs in 2010 [/quote] All I know is what I read. coop mentions hurt players, 12 Silsbee fans jump on him for making excuses. This is no different. And I WAS VERY close to that game. It was a great game by two good teams and the better team won. Good luck in 2010! ;D

This is some good conversation. I like the differing opinion's. One thing I might add, or maybe, get clear. If he doesn't start some of his starters, that doesn't equate to "throwing" the game. There is no way that Barbay would intentionally lose the game. If he does play the backups, he's still going to try to win. One more point, if he loses Chad Allen to injury, he will not win either playoff game...

[quote name="WOSgrad" post="697408" timestamp="1257386347"] I don't think that there is a chance that a Barbay would go anything but full blast.  I know I have seen it many times where this happens in the pros, only to see the team taking it easy completely lose their momentum and be the victim of a one and done.  [/quote] To the contrary, it happens every year in the pros. When a team is playing a meaningless game. The pivotal players MAY play the first qtr. This happens EVERY year. There have been times when it has come back to bite them, but it is the exception and not the rule. Again, I don't think Barbay will do it. But comparing it to the pros isn't a good idea because that is done every year. You should be in the middle of a fantasy playoff and have your stud players sit on the day of your superbowl (which is usually week 16 or 17)... SUX!!!!

I don't think any coach would go into a game with the intentions of losing it. That being said, if he doesn't start his vital players to rest them and keep them from injury and starts the backups and they lose then that's a different story. Like someone mentioned earlier, LaVega went to the state finals last year because they rested their starters the last game of the season and lost. Some people said they threw the game, others said he was a genius for doing it. Whichever it was, it gave him a shot at the title which is everyone's ultimate goal. I personally don't think Barbay will rest his starters just because of who he is. But I will say this, I guarantee you that if he does start Andrew Leigh and Chad Allen and one of them sustains a seson ending injury, you can bet that there will be doubters on this board saying, "Why risk your starters in a meaningless game?"" They have clinched a playoff spot. Losing this game will not kill them and will, in fact, give them a better chance to advance to the next round. If you look at it from a coaching stand point, he gains nothing by risking his players friday except for a little pride and people on message boards claiming he took a dive (which I really don't think he gives a crap about). All in all, it will be interesting to see what he does.
