[quote name="JJWooten" post="881908" timestamp="1287598934"] Dome or no dome, it's still going to be cold. The kids have to adjust to being up there in the cold, then going in a dome to warm up. There's more to the weather than just game-time temp. [/quote] Would have been better if you just said......ooops, my bad, I didnt know they played in a dome. :D

The games over.....we won.  No fumbles.  NEXT!

If f doesnt win....they need to give it to that homeschooled kid Ive been hearing about.

I dont like looking past a team....but after WOS wins this week ;D ;D and we win both this week and next week  ;D ;D.......all will be fine.

I believe the "standard" that we hold them to has risen a tad bit.  Performence (win loss), Education, Life lessons, Exposer,  Fundraising.....the list goes on and on.   I look at it like this.  If you have a coach, [u]in a public school[/u], that a lot of kids want to play for........He or she is a good one.   I believe that everyone is drawn to good leadership.   Am I off on this or not?

I could do sooooo much with the title of this thread. ;) :D

[quote name="puddin tane" post="880142" timestamp="1287451377"] "2nd arrest in as many weeks" we dont need stoners what this team is missing is a smack you in the face redneck LB. [/quote] I know one!  Would one from Caney Head count?;D  But I am not a liberty to say who it is...... why..........Caney Head is part of Silsbee!!!!  Or it might be because I want Raider99 to read this and wonder who it might beeeeeeee. ;D

If he comes back to Lamar.....Do you think it help Lamar on recruiting?

[quote name="ST413" post="879488" timestamp="1287415751"] [quote author=skipper link=topic=74461.msg879447#msg879447 date=1287412896] IF silsbee had not turned the ball over to the cards friday night would it been a diffrent game,was it the turnovers that hurt the tigers are is it that thay were just out played [/quote] The Tigers were outplayed,  turnovers are part of the game,  so having fewer turnovers can be a part of outplaying a team. The Tigers were beaten by less than a TD,  we turned the ball over 5 times.  Take away the drives ended by turnovers and I am not sure BC stopped the Tigers 5 times the rest of the game.  So yes I would feel the turnovers cost the Tigers the game.  1 score out of those five possesions is all we needed. [/quote] How many times did they score off of our turnovers?

[quote name="puddin tane" post="876968" timestamp="1287243297"] Raiders-- now that there is a football fan...probably 30-40 yrs old, wearing his letter jacket out to motiva...has a Lumpton Raider  on his hardhat... ::) [color=red]GO BIG RED[/color] [/quote] Thats funny.........But I must admit I am sooooooo close to being that guy!!!! I am not going to the game and it is killing me!

[quote name="that1guy" post="876743" timestamp="1287206046"] 4 turnovers, right.  If both teams are equally matched, all things being equal, then the game should come down to coaching and preparation.  Silsbee turns the ball over 4 friggin times, that's coaching or a lack of it.  If the team is not prepared properly, that's a coaching issue also, I'm just saying.  Call it what you want, BC got away with one tonight, because Silsbee wasn't ready, and that my is a coaching issue, again I'm just saying.       [/quote]   You can never live in the past.....other than to make notes on what needs to be done to correct it for the next game.  Thats how you get better.  There is a trend of turnovers and I am sure the Coaches will get it corrected. Drill after drill.  Hint Hint Hint Hint;D....get it 1234.   As far as being on the fence......I can only control what I can control.  I can make sure my boy is happy.  He isnt tonight.....but he will be tomorrow.    

Stop ragging on BC.  Good teams dont turn over the ball.......BC was the smarter and better team tonight.  We had four, four...count them, four, four turnovers tonight.  BC caused one of them when it was needed the most. Silsbee will go back to practice and the coaches will teach the young men how to carry the ball.  They know it hurts and they know it can be taught..... I can see drill after drill after drill that the coaches will give these young men.  I dont think they want to loose like that again.  Silsbee will get stronger. I am proud of the effort put out by the Silsbee players.  Not happy, but glad they showed some desire. Thanks to the BC Coach who said the nice words to #14 after the game.  

[quote name="Sgt Rey" post="875209" timestamp="1287147548"] My kids earn everything they have...and like the real world, they have to maintain it....so I say, I will get you anything you want, but are you willing to pay for it in the long run....they maintain items with grades, chores, and effort during competition.....i.e when they didn't have anything(before 13) they were entitled to keep all grades above 75%....as cell phone came in and so forth that increased to 80% and 84%....if they score below that on a report card the loose there phone for a six weeks for not maintaining their grades, similar to someone who decides to buy a new car, if you don't pay it, you loose it....you have to work harder....computer privileges, organizer up keep, chores not completed in a timely manner, and my favorite, lack of effort in competition....one of my sons told me once "I can't finish first everytime", I told him he better be willing to die trying! ....come live with us.. ;D [/quote] Gotta love a jar head.  It is the same at our house.

Give a guy some knowledge......what is their boards address?  I might go on there and talk smack......you know.......like TT! :D

ooooops!  I dont know why I thought they played. 

What was the score of the Kirbyville WOS game?  What was the score of Kirbyville Orangefield game?

I dont know.  Young men always want the best.  They see the guys on TV and say "Thats me in a couple of years!"  Who can blame them.  But a bunch of these young men are from small towns and are going to a university that has an enrolement larger than the population of their own town.  I can see that it could be a little overwelming. I pointed that fact out to a young man who might have a chance at playing at the next level.  He went to a large university for a visit then a small one.  He felt confortable at the smaller university.  I am sure if they both asked.....he would choose the smaller one.  Big Time is Where Your At.  I was told that and will always remember it. I never had that problem.....In the Corps, they dont care if you miss Momma or not. :D....and I knew that. I am just glad that all the young men that have transferd this year have had a place to go.  The goal is to get an edjucation....they are still on that path. I dont care if JJ is from Silsbee or Beaumont.  If I get to see him in four years and he has completed his edjucation...I am shaking his hand and leting him know I am proud of him. Sorry for the spelling.....the Corps doesnt offer English....they do but.....I cant forward what I learnd. ;)  I hope JJ, and the other six that have transferd will be able to.

congrats!  -2 :o

[quote name="BUNA95" post="873271" timestamp="1286914846"] This might be a good game. WOS by 14 [/quote] I agree.

[quote name="sxedoc" post="873123" timestamp="1286903270"] Hey sports guy. you like my joke? ;) [/quote] Weak.....thought is was the truth. :D 

[quote name="Boogy1000" post="873100" timestamp="1286901629"] Silsbee is in trouble! BC is coming to play [/quote] You are right about BC coming to play......but saying it over and over and over and over again is saying something else. I think you are trying to say that the current Silsbee players have no heart. I think they do.  They know BC is for real.  

I believe Silsbee puts it all together this week.  My prediction is that it is going to be a fun game to watch from both sides.   Silsbee on top 35-34.

Slumberton ;D

[quote name="GoGetta56" post="870290" timestamp="1286633598"] No one should under estimate orangefield there a really good football team. [/quote] This is what happened last night.  I dont think the Tiger players will under estimate anyone else.......they cant.

Silsbee-  QB Kelson McDaniel....Did not go out of bounds and let the clock run down.             ILB JK Keefer....He had to have made 20 tackles tonight.
