We didn't even make the playoff's last year and we beat every team that we lost 2 last year except BH. We didn't have a coach until May no off season @ all and we still placed 2cd. I was frustrated many games because I knew the potential of the kids. They work hard daily and I refuse to let someone say they suck with the unfourtunate hand they were dealt. Who cares about losing to Vidor?? We are the 2cd seed after all the smoked cleared. If you a true Cougar you understand the adversity those kids over came. Go to Chappel Hill with your Hero!

Go Couagars!

Put your money where your mouth is.

MY MONEY ON CROSBY TONIGHT!

Exactly, same situation as Riordan who was hired right around the beginning of March in 2012. We lost the opener to a good Ned team and finished the season 8-4. Lost to Manor after blowing a second half lead, Manor won the region. We looked good all year though. Crosby was ranked #2 in the state last year, if Howard doesn’t tear his ACL Crosby goes 10-0 for the second time under Rio. That’s even with the financial cloud. You should be concerned if you had to go to overtime with a team that just lost by 35. 
 

The kids don’t suck at all, I’ve said continuously that Crosby has the most talent in the district. These kids didn’t go through any adversity, they didn’t have their school shot up like Santa Fe. They weren’t flooded out of their homes like Vidor. If you’re calling 40 kids in a classroom, double stacked busses or not or kneel in the ball at the end of the game adversity then ok, but hiring a coach in May isn’t. 
 

With that being said I’ll ask you. Why did Crosby until about 2 weeks ago continuously kill themselves with pre-snap penalties? How do you show up for a district championship game and get destroyed by a mediocre team? With the best talent in the district, why are we playing a toss up game with basically and inner-city HISD school? Crosby fans used to think this was a bad thing, I guess now we’re supposed to be excited for finishing second in maybe worst district in the region.

My bad, we hired Rio in January. I was thinking about when when he left. Still the same situation though. We didn’t play Spring ball so that we could have the two preseason scrimmages like we did this year.

What district championship game?  What mediocre team?

So just for a re-cap: Manvel goes TO Hall Stadium and beats FB Marshall who was ranked #2 at the time giving them the best win in the state. They beat 12-5A’s 4th place team by 35, they were only up 3 points entering the 4th quarter on the own district’s 4th place team. Yet, you somehow agree that Nederland looked good and Manvel looks vulnerable? Got it. 

“Good” and “vulnerable,” like all words, take meaning from the context around them. Thank you for providing more context. “Good” doesn’t mean “great,” “best,” or “won the game last night.” It means they made a stronger showing than I thought they would, and, at times, seemed to be in a position to keep up. Of course Nederland was outmatched. No one is doubting that. “Good” just means “not bad.” They played a tough game, took some hard hits, gave some hard hits, and for a few drives ran right through Manvel. 
 

As for “vulnerable,” I of course don’t mean that Manvel looked vulnerable to Nederland. As you read my comment, you know I was referring to Manvel’s vulnerability to other teams in the region. Manvel showed weaknesses last night that I think will bury them in these playoffs.

This an internal Crosby conversation bro. Not an open discussion.

Wwwwwoooooooowwwwww!!!!! What a week to be off the boards. I’m on my way to see Crosby vs willow game and I fall into GOLD✝️. Y’all made my week, better than the Richard Pryor eight track I had my senior year in 78. Man I’m old but ready to get back into the fire. As I said, Crosby peaking now, believe they’ll win by 14-21. I feel I need to have to buy a subscription for this entertainment. This is like a WWE free for all and 14.2 takes on all comers with signature moves that remind me of a happier time when everyone hated him and Crosby. Oh well keep up the debate men, I got until state then I’m off commenting until I retire again, probably 2038. Texas high school playoffs and smack talk——God is good all the time and all the time God is good. Oh hell, Earth Wind and Fire playing September on Pandora 70s funk. Time to get in the shower and dance.

    • Drelon ran track during basketball season? I guess he shouldn’t have until basketball season was over… 
    • Of course Trump’s prosecution is political, but if paying hush money is illegal, then there is no difference.  I’d say it’s more like ham sandwich/turkey sandwich. 
    • Coach Foster and I had talked earlier in the season and he told me this might be his last year to coach but still wasn't sure. Well, he is sure now. It's been a great privilege to cover his teams. I always enjoy watching his teams play. They are always one of the best coached teams year in and year out. But it's more of an honor and privilege to call Kevin my friend. He is just an absolute great man. He and his dad are the reasons I am a big Big Sandy fan. I will miss Coach on the sidelines. Just won't be the same without him. But I also know we will keep in touch and he will be greeting me when I attend Wildcat basketball games. Congrats Coach Foster!!! Job well done my friend!
    • Yeah, I got that but talk about a stretch. It should seem obvious that Trump’s prosecution is purely political. If someone is going to do a whataboutism, at least make it similar.  This is so ludicrous that it’s like comparing a ham sandwich to a wallet.   
    • You consistently try to say Trump ran our debt up and that the stock market and job market cratered during his administration (along with other MSNBC talking points). That is a flat out LIE, and you know it. Not only are you telling a mistruth, you knowingly are telling a mistruth...which is a blatant LIE...which makes you a "(I don't remember what word you used to describe Trump, something like a purse for dirt)" does it not? You know for a fact that the economy, stock market, and job market was thriving under Trump. You know that the Democrats controlled the house, and proposed a budget that would hurt the economy, in which he shut down the government. Even after this fiasco brought on by Democrats, our economy flourished under his administration. Then Covid19 hit, and the blue states shut down the country. YOU KNOW THIS, but continue to blame Trump. You lie...blatantly. Again, what do we call these people that partake in disseminating misleading information. You coined it...that purse thing. Does the shoe fit? I bet it does. It is amazing that you try to put "MAGA people" into this little box for the soul purpose of allowing all negative attributes of anyone that will vote for Trump instead of Biden to be attributed. That is a sickening modus operandi of stupid people. It is hard for me to believe that you would adopt that childish stereotyping. But since you are willing, I'm willing to push back. I'm a Trump supporter. I will gladly vote for him over Biden. So get busy putting me in your silly little box of stereotypes so I can embarrass you some more. You've been shot down by practically everyone on this board when you say stuff like Trump is their Messiah, or that supporters overlook his flaws. Everyone on this board has stated that they don't agree with Trump on much of his behavior, but you ignore these statements and continue with your lies. Oh yeah, since I'm a Trump supporter, those comments were also directed directly at me. So let's go. Prove I'm a simpleton that will ignore all of Trump's flaws and vow to disown the bad ol' orangeman. Let's continue that diatribe you peddle. I now am interested in responding. I also have boxes I can place people in. Whose box is accurate? Better yet, whose box is more embarrassing? I'm fairly certain your box is more entertaining for the board to make fun of. TDS should be included in the DSM-6, or revise the DSM-5 to include it since this phenomenon is so pervasive now. You are a walking, talking picture of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Do you like that box? Can you refute the rationale for placing you in that box. Everyone can refute your rationale for placing them into your irrational box, while you languish in your TDS box.
