skipper Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 lets say the other team turns over the ball all night long and you know as a fan of the game that team you were playing was is alot better than that just had a bad night
BearWolf Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 there is no what ifs, turnovers are part of the game.
baddog Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 lets say the other team turns over the ball all night long and you know as a fan of the game that team you were playing was is alot better than that just had a bad night I agree with WB that turnovers are a part of the game. There are too many "what ifs?" involved with the answer to your question. If my team forces their opponent to turn the ball over multiple times, and we are able to capitalize on these turnovers, then I have to wonder if the other team is any better at all. It's why the games are played.
silentassasin Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 If a team like North Shore wins then they are supposed to and if they lose then it is like a wake up call to the world. If a team like say Tarkington wins its first game then it could be a building block for an entire season, but if they lose then most people are not suprised. There are situations and scenarios every Friday night and that is what makes sports so compelling, and why we are on the message boards posting our opinions.
skipper Posted August 10, 2008 Author Report Posted August 10, 2008 very good ,i like the way you guys think
stangchain Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 It will prove that we are STILL better than Nederland and we can STILL keep up with some of the 4A teams around here! LOL. ;D
tvc184 Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 It will prove that the team is 1-0. Nothing else can be proven after one game by any team. Even WO-S's loss to Nederland will not prove that they are a bad team or can't keep up. It will just mean that they have work to do.
3apantherfan Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 If my team is causing the other BC to turn the ball over all night and we win, then I guess it would mean that we played pretty good, and deserved the win!
TradinUp BH Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 You won't go winless that's it. Heck we didn't even score in our first two games last year, but we went back to the old bread and butter and was co-champs of our district. ;D ;D That cracks me up every time.
raidernaytion Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 PNG will have a down year in 2008.

Even WO-S's loss to Nederland will not prove that they are a bad team or can't keep up. It will just mean that they have work to do. I agree with part of your post. The difference is WOS will know they have work to do, win or lose. That's just the way we do things! What will Nederland learn from their loss? ;D
knightrider Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 example, dayton allways seem to start out slow but gets stronger as the season progresses and better. non district games mean diddly. it's district that counts.
play-ball!! Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 PNG will have a down year in 2008. yeah and dont you people say this every year? and look what happens we find a way to be in the top half of the district. it happens every year all it is to us is motivation.
silentassasin Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 I remember about 7 years ago or so that Cleveland started out 0-5 and then went and won their district and went three rounds deep losing to the eventual state champs that year.
Gasilla Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 I remember about 7 years ago or so that Cleveland started out 0-5 and then went and won their district and went three rounds deep losing to the eventual state champs that year. Their have been several teams start out the season 0-2, 0-3 and go on to win state titles. Paris went 0-3 to start the 88 season and went on to beat WOS in the 88 title game.
tvc184 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 Just like scrimmages, preseason games are for pride and practice. After that, they mean nothing... but they sure are nice to win.
Bucof2010 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Posted August 11, 2008 For E.C. It would prove that there is football after Thomas.
Guest ECBucFan Posted August 12, 2008 Report Posted August 12, 2008 For E.C. It would prove that there is football after Thomas. Football was long before Thomas, too. Playoffs 13 straight.
Majestyk Posted August 12, 2008 Report Posted August 12, 2008 That we are indeed better than Nederland.
