Silsbee vs WOS - Regional Finals

Recommended Posts

Yesterday, Dec. 7th 2018 - a date which will live in infamy.  In Orange anyway.  

Tell you one thing, I was impressed with the Mustangs after the game.  When the teams lined up to shake hands they were downright warm about it!  It was more than just a perfunctory get-this-over-with thing.  And after a tough loss in very difficult circumstances.  Talk about sportsmanship.

Now, what do we do about Cuero or Navarro?  Given the Tigers proclivity for foul weather I wonder if we can arrange a blizzard or something?  Or maybe not, we're Tigers, not snow leopards.

That was a big thing i noticed last night.  Given some of the past history between these two i was so happy to see it during and after the game.  These two played a hard fought game in horrible conditions and played it the way it should be played.  I could not be more proud of either team.

This game has the possibility of being one of the most talked about game for years to come..: except it’s going to be played in an empty stadium.

thats just wrong. 

 

As in most cases.... you were way off.

Game goes down as an all time experience in my book.

Stadium wasnt empty considering weather and it wont be forgotten by Silsbee fans.

Not by a long shot.

WO-S side wasn't as any as Silsbee.  The Silsbee side of the parking lot was packed and there was a lot more people at the game than I expected that braved the driving conditions and elements.

The community of Silsbee shows a lot more support than orange. Which is sad considering the success of the wos football program

Newton will be the only team from the 409 playing at Jerrys World. 

Sounds like someone still butt hurt. But keep the comments coming because I’m sure this year‘s team turns that negativity into tackling fuel. We all know everyone thinks Jasper and WOS was the better team but doesn’t matter now because the Tigers are the only ones taking another bus ride.

I could care less about Jasper, WOS, or Silsbee. Not but hurt snowflake.  Just realistic.

Final thoughts on this game, Congrats to Silsbee for getting it done. Congrats to WOS for a good season, tough start but great run to regional final. 

Played in good weather conditions the game may have had a different outcome. 

Doesnt look like the weather will be a factor in the upcoming game with Cuero. They are always tough, Tigers will need their A game. Go get that state championship, and bring it back to the 409.

    • The Bible prophesied the destruction and restoration of Israel and the gathering back of God’s people. I don’t know about the purity of the twelve tribes, but God’s word is true regardless of how man interprets it. God says he will bless those the support Israel. Many consider Israel bullies because they don’t agree with the magnitude of their defense towards their attackers. The Old Testament is full of God’s support of the annihilation of their enemies.  
    • Here is the facebook post for y'all   I’m not going to put names or schools on this, but feel free to screen shot it to whoever you like. Yes yes, I’m a baseball guy. But I love football more than baseball. My son played all three sports in high school. So I’m not a baseball only guy. But if your high school football coach has your Varsity baseball son doing football drills in pads right now, that is wrong. At one certain school, the baseball team lost their starting third baseman (Gladiator kid) because he dislocated his elbow in a football drill. Two weeks before high school baseball playoffs, and now his season is done. Basically this coaches decision to make Varsity baseball players do football workouts on April 22nd, 5 months before Friday night lights, just sabotaged this kids season, and the teams season. And once again, I’m a huge football supporter, but this is wrong!! This is why kids stop playing football. Coaches preach they want kids playing all the sports, well how about respect baseball season, from Feb to May !  If the shoe was on the other foot, and a kid got injured playing baseball in October and he was a varsity football starter, what would that coach do? Be pissed off! And I would 100% agree with him! There is a reason I don’t have a fall baseball program with football guys. Because I respect football season. All I’m asking is football coaches to respect baseball season. Respect the High School baseball coaches that have worked their ass off to try to get their team in a playoff situation. Support them, don’t Sabotage them by taking their players out because of a “all important April 22nd” football workout. And I don’t want to hear this was bad luck, or any crap like that!!!A lot of these kids are Division One Baseball players, and just good high school football players. If you want to continue to have these kids play football, start doing the right thing. If not, I’m going to try to get those kids quit football and just focus on baseball. And let me say it again, I want all my Gladiator kids playing football!! I go support them watching their football games, and I love it!! But not at the cost of an injury in April playing football, not baseball . Bad miss……Do a better job! Be a better football coach, and remember, it’s not about you, but it’s about the kids who respect you and will do anything you ask them to do. Don’t punish them for being a good baseball or basketball player!!
    • Only if you ignore the Constitution. I get the sentiment but I sometimes ponder when others may say, “We always support the Constitution”, “The Constitution has to be followed as the law of the land”, etc.  When in reality they mean, “I LOVE THE CONSTITUTION……. except the parts I don’t like”. There are certainly parts of the Constitution that I would change if I had the option.
