claytong Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 I saw something happen after the game that i think only a few people saw. two people, the flag runner and a cheerleader from wos stood in the middle of the field and was taking a picture. the BC coach came out there and demanded that they get off the field. he was cussing and everything. being a fan of wos, i have seen this every game. also the coach was mad because the flag was waved in the middle of their field. once again this is at every field, even the ones that are away. I personally think that the coach had no reason to start such an argument. was this rude or what.
24 over par Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 this has been dicussed on here recently and no big deal to me but it is offensive to some people

I personally think that the coach had no reason to start such an argument. was this rude or what.If this did happen, the coach should not be CUSSING them. There is a better way to handle these types of situations and I know that they were probably aggravated, but vent that anger appropriately. I think that people make an issue about what they want to make issues about because they are upset about the loss or the season's outcome or because they are looking for the slightest little reason to make the opposing team seem like they have poor sportsmanship. Maybe that's why WO-S isn't easily offended because we just focus on FOOTBALL and don't LOOK for rather petty reasons to complain about our competition. ???Where was that coach during that ridiculously long half-time...they're never around when you REALLY need them.And, where are all of these "know-all-the-rules" people who are so quick to post rules about everything else... Believe it or not, rules do apply to everyone and it's not a shock that they get broken...I just expected something copy and pasted straight from the UIL rule book.
WOS92 Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 Half-Time RegulationsThe NCAAFootball Rules specify a penalty be assessed to the home team at the beginning of the second half if the half-time exceeds allowable limits. Texas high schools play by NCAA rules, therefore the half-time length regulations will be enforced by football officials.1. Maximum half-time length for UIL varsity games is 28 minutes. Please note that half-time is not required to be this long. Many districts have adopted a shorter period of time, for example 24 minutes. Note: Junior high and sub-varsity half-time should not be longer than 20 minutes.2. Timing for the half-time should begin when all players and personnel have cleared the field at the end of the first half of play.3. Bands should be ready at that time to come onto the field for their half-time show. Undue delay by the visiting team band could result in a penalty being assessed to the home school. Many schools are placing a time limit on each band, insuring that the first part of the half-time intermission will not cause the entire half-time to exceed the allotted time limit.4. Football teams should have at least 3-4 minutes to warm up after the half-time intermission prior to the second-half kickoff.
stangchain Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 The game was also late getting started because of BC's PRE-GAME introductions. You'd think they could have planned it better! Don't let the band perform if they are going to do it at half-time, otherwise, start earlier and do all of it before the game.
Heb Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 Congrats Stangs on another great year.Since my Dogs are out, got room for a Dog at the Giddings game?Always.
buke815 Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 Someone made the comment that it would have never happened that way had the game been competitive...they wouldn't have delayed it like they did...it was just kind of rude... :The game was also late getting started because of BC's PRE-GAME introductions. You'd think they could have planned it better! Don't let the band perform if they are going to do it at half-time, otherwise, start earlier and do all of it before the game.First off congrats to the WO-S Mustangs on another great season.Yes the celebration for the seniors could have been planned better,everything was off. I dont think being in the game or not had anything to do with it. What I thought was rude was the WO-S Mustangs fans booing and such while the kids were being introduced.

I dont think being in the game or not had anything to do with it. What I thought was rude was the WO-S Mustangs fans booing and such while the kids were being introduced. It's a violation of UIL rules, and it was 15 minutes long, not a few. The players for both teams stood there in smoky blow-up run-throughs for 15-20 minutes. Even the refs thought it was a wrong. Only our coaches kept BC from having a penalty - like having to forfei... uh... Oh, I get it.
Gasilla Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 I thought the delay was irritating at first, but once I thought about it, it was those kids last night at their stadium and the last night of football in their senior year. If it cost me an extra 15 minutes to give them a great memory, oh well. I saw many of what were probably seniors all dancing together on the BC sideline just having a good old time. I'm glad they will have the memory.

I'm glad they will have the memory. Very well said Gasilla -- I can't believe that so many folks are bellyaching over 15 minutes of the Senior last night on the field. It's a blasted football game, and it's a Friday night, whats an additional 15 minutes?
HSFootball69 Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 Yea thats true..Why have they (BC) had such a drop off in their record from last year?well as its been said hundreds of times before, BC is a young team. Only 1 returning starter this year... i think there are 5 or 6 seniors total but all were on JV last year i believe... Next year will be different. (i hope)

Oh, I get it.if you want to talk about rudness then look at what your team does... it shows no respect at all for the opposing team... Running to the middle of the field and walking all over our symbol... now thats just rude... maybe that should be a penalty?

I dont blame BC for being mad, cuz i'd be mad at that season to .... i mean look at my ags (depressing). WOS does nothing but shows respect on the football field. PERIOD I've seen plenty of games and every single one they run to the middle of the field in meaning of no disrespect. You cant blame people for running out on the field afterwards either. WOS wins another district championship and their streak lives on, thats worth celebrating where ever you are. And knowing some BC people and others, yall still won't understand and see it as disrespectful.........typical

skipper Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 coach hooks was not all that upset well maybe a little but was a good sport about it. the west orange-starks fan were very much upset not all but most. i have been to games and seen the yellow flags go up when the band was still playing

I personally think that the coach had no reason to start such an argument. was this rude or what.So how long are the BC fans, coaches, and players suppose to remain good sports before we get mad? rude or what?? In a game that everyone on this board concedes to the Mustangs before the opening kick off, is it necessary for the WOS players to run directly to the mascot in the center of the field and jump up and down? not only at the beginning of the game but at the half with a huge lead?According to the annoucer at the beginning of the game it is against the rules to have horns and bells, but the fans have to listen to the train horn every time the Mustangs score.I don't care about the score, or who won or lost. Go ahead and work on your passing game, keep your starters sharp for the play offs, thats what any team would do. But does a 9-0 team facing a 0-9 team really have to resort to stomping to mascot and waving their flag in the field of the defeated foe to make themselves feel like champions? I believe there is a big difference in being undefeated and being a champion.
Guest Wos Grad 2000 Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 We do that even at home. Jesus people! Nothing was done to be rude, get over it!
2Cards Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 I'm sure you break wind in your living room at home too, but when you do it in someone else's living room it's rude!
Gasilla Posted November 11, 2007 Report Posted November 11, 2007 I'm sure you break wind in your living room at home too, but when you do it in someone else's living room it's rude!Don't invite me to your home then... Where ever I be I let the gas run free... ;D
KJB324 Posted November 11, 2007 Report Posted November 11, 2007 Dont visiting basketball teams run to the middle after they announce the starters. Whats the difference. Sounds like BC is upset that they have one of the worst defences i have ever seen. How do you run up the middle 4 or 5 times for 40 and 50 yards without being touched. Its like they would purposefully stay away form the play. The offense wasnt as bad.
