Only one thing.....losing. 

Everyone is saying it....kids parents and fans.  This Tiger group is a team.  They just seem closer than most Silsbee Teams of the past.  In the past if one got hurt.  One teammate might check on the player.  Now.....it is when they have the chance to. It might be a few plays but it is the first chance they get.  I enjoy seeing that.  Same goes if one makes a play.  It is just good to see. They are becoming to be a true unit.  Hope they build on it each week.  If it does....watch out. 2-9 on third down conversions...gotta change that one.  That hurts bad.  Wrap up and drive your legs D. Good game to watch.

I loved the D tonight.  On both sides of the ball.  Great game newton all the young men played hard. I picked on Newton fans earlier....hope you know it was in fun.  It is always a good game. Good Job 14.

The offense Silsbee runs is designed for that and Newton has the team speed for that. All it will take is a moments hesitation from either defense and you can put six on the board. Turnovers for either team may spell disaster. It's going to be a high scoring game IMO. :) The boy on the bridge with the banjo was just waiting on a ride to the game.  ::) I think I saw him get in that chip truck!! [/quote] I agree with you on this game.  I have a feeling it is going to be a barn burner.  Like last years....only Silsbee on top.

[/quote] And you wouldnt want to be anywhere else.

Good luck Tigers!

Family environment......The little blue hair that is driving 25 mph in a 50 mph speed zone.  That I get stuck behind for 100 miles. :D

42-14 Lamar

Come district time is when the crowd really gets going especially for the BH / CROS game. ;) [/quote] We have a no cow bell rule in 21-3a.  ::)

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="1057958" timestamp="1316173216"] Well we got the horses watered and fed and will be hitching up and breaking camp in a few minutes to get back on the trail. It's quite this morning here on the banks of Nichols creek and the skeeters weren't too bad. We should be able to make the Walmart parking lot in time to do a little tail gating before the game. Would welcome any Silsbee fans that want to drop by and share our cask. Should be a good game tonight and the weather sure feels good under the stars. Newton should bring the "A" game tonight and we'll see what Silsbee is made of. "Happy trails to you, until we meet again" I loved Roy and Dale and Trigger. 8) [/quote] Where did you start the trail ride?  Did you pass that boy on the bridge playing the banjo? ;D.......some might not get this one.

Every one of Buddys Applauds came from one topic......Oklahoma Sucks!  That put him way ahead of the game. ;)

[quote name="Claude" post="1057026" timestamp="1316035403"] He's just trying to get a little trash talk out the Newton Fans , Newton shows class though. [/quote] Who wants to have class in a good ol trash talk for fun?  You would get ate up!....like tiger bait.  You know......like Newtons football team tomorrow. ;D

I say forget small school - big school!  Go to the one you wanted to go to.  Silsbee vs Newton. 

This hole mess could have been cleared up with Thompson and the parents before the form was sent out.  If you want to put the man on your shoulders for cking the form.....go ahead.  I would put him on my shoulders for trying to fix it before all this mess.  He did what he felt he needed to.  New coach. New way of doing things.  He did what was required but could have done more.

[/quote]I wonder who caused that. [/quote] Not me!  I did give westend1 a smite to help him along in his smite glory. ;D  When I smite I tell ya about it!  Just gave you one too!

Fear the horn.

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="1056133" timestamp="1315942596"] Credible? I didn't know that was a requirement to post on here. If I was building a nuclear bomb I'd worry about credibility. This is football. Get over it. :D [/quote] Your a champ in my eyes....both of them.  one + one = 2......both. ;D

Brake out the fingers man!.......Then cipher!  Not + Not = Not  Not + 1 = 1  ;D Putball has been berry good to me.

westend1.......stinks!  There.....I gave you another. ;D

Could be that he just wants to get to "work".  No more, "lets shine" for the cameras durring the week.  Lets work, yell, teach, man up, and get rid of all distractions, so they can "shine" on Sat.

[quote name="Ty Cobb" post="1055953" timestamp="1315931499"] I'm 100% for full contact/full speed practice.  You can't ask a young man to go half speed in practice then go full speed in a game.  You can't ask a young man to pull up in practice then ask him to make a tackle in a game.  Treat Monday-Wednesday practice like a game situation, then have a light practice or walk through on Thursday. [/quote] I agree.  You also cant ask them to go against JV speed Monday-Wednesday.  It causes slow starts in games.......it takes two quarters to catch up.
