The constant arguing amingst players after mistakes, throwing of a helmet on the sidelines, 2 coaches arguing, etc...was not good.  As a setx resident with no connection to either school I will state this as I told my buddy during the game, I came here wanting Silsbee to win and the longer this game goes the less I have a vested interest.  Although improved under the "new" regime, until that mess stops Silsbee will continue to do less with more than anyone in Setx. The kids deserve better, including being disciplined. 

I guess i missed all that. But i agree they need to be discipline thats one thing its lacking and starts with coaching

Fellas, Silsbee was two games away from the title game and lost to a very very good Cuero team. That is a great success in 99.9% of the programs in the state. When you get to that level, the little things tend to rear their heads and cause teams to lose. Discipline, heart and experience usually tend to be the difference. Otherwise, we would never see a team like Liberty Hill continue to have the kind of success they have against clearly more athletic programs at this point in the year. Silsbee should celebrate the great year they had and work on fixing the small things that created the difference in the game. As far as experience goes, now they have that. Discipline can be created during the offseason, and heart must be brought by the players.

Kinda like converting on 4th and 13?

There was plenty of luck going both ways. The fact is that Silsbee had the more athletic team and got beat by a team that adjusted and executed better. 
 

You know what I didn’t see from Cuero? They didn’t give up 14 points in the first 3 minutes of the second half. They didn’t get a false start in the red zone, get bumped back five yards, then miss a chip shot game winning field goal. They didn’t fail to convert their 2pt try in the third overtime.  Their players weren’t racking up personal fouls and I never saw Gobblers squabbling with other Gobblers… but I did see the Tigers do all of those things. 
 

Do you know what gifted teams do when they get beaten by inferior teams? They blame “luck.”

Where were you watching the game from? Did you have on rose colored glasses? In your narrow-minded sight, you didn't see the "squabbling" on the Gobblers after a big run that had a penalty that called it back? Late in the game the passion was running high on both sides of the field, on the field and sidelines and there was "squabbling" on both sides. Heck even Tom Brady gets in players faces and "squabbles" when they make a mistake. It happens in every sport, especially when the stakes are that high in the playoffs. Most people that know sports know this "passion" that you play with and would be worried if players didn't show it in a close game. You may not understand this but sometimes when the other team is just as good as you are it's good to have luck and Cuero had more luck than we did. But we all know where you are coming from, you have stated it on here time and time again, anything to bring a team down. 

 

Do you know what a person whose team cannot win constantly do? They become bitter!

Through the decades Cuero has experienced shooting themselves in the foot many times.   Either team had a good chance at winning it all.  Cuero definitely respects Silsbee football.   Glad to be matching up again.  Hope our region wins it all.

You forgot about the University of Carthage I suppose!

When was your first one?

Sounding just like a Dallas Cowboys fan. Those titles are rusted bro. Bridge City Football hasn't been relevant for 50 years. A few 2nd round playoff trips here in there is good I guess. Baseball you had success yes, track, and basketball no. Cheers to a 70-6 Tiger win vs Bridge City next year in week 7.

    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
    • Got my hotel booked...an hour away. They're having some kind of Light festival, so busy times in Nat.
