TheMissingBand

I’ve kept quiet about this, but I talked to a BC defensive starter after the game. When asked what happened in the first half, he nailed it. “They got one of our bands and knew our plays before the snap. We went back to signaling plays in from the sideline and they couldn’t stop us.” That’s the whole “adjustment” that BC coaches made… they stopped giving the plays to LCM. Like I said… they had to cheat to beat a 4A D2 school. Did Peevey forget how to coach or do they just suck up there? You be the judge.

Sometimes good things happen to bad people. Congrats on the “win” LCM.

Yes… that’s correct.

That’s a good point made in the hearing… bc had to stop using their tech because of LCM concealing the band which put BC at a disadvantage.

I’ve read a lot of smack from the LCM fans, but the end of the day the Cardinals are fighting up/out of their weight class and tied for first-and I think they’d be undefeated in the district if not for what happened in this game. What does that say about LCM if BC is accused of taking the “easy road” by opting up to play the Bears? If anybody wants to take a trip down memory lane, how were things going for the Bears before they dropped down from 5A D1? They stunk. Then they hired a “state championship caliber” coach… and he somehow lost his mojo… or BOJO, if you prefer. I don’t blame them for cheating… I would do anything to avoid getting handled up by a much smaller school from across town, too. Like when they duck their longtime cross town rival Mustangs. Whatever happens in the meeting today doesn’t matter. I believe that the Bears deserve a forfeit, but it won’t change anything. We’ll see ‘em next year and pick up where we left off the second half.

Can we insert a poll? I think we all miss that guy.

We've played both, and Silsbee takes this.  It's hard to cheat on the road, WOS...

[/quote] Excuses, excuses and my boy play on the 8th grade team! Hey who cares where Dan Hooks stays? Seems to me you're the only one that cares.. Lol. [size=14pt]Last time I check Coach Thompson was the coach [/size] @ the House that Dan Ray built! Matter fact y don't y'all bring Hooks out of Retirement to be BC Coach? [/quote] Uh huh... and Thompson chooses to live in Orangefield, too.  It must be worse than I thought over there.

We won in regulation, we couldn't protect our lead in the extended period.  Nah, the entire second half, when the Stangs were behind, the clock would stop after every play.... regardless of who had the ball, if the play never went out of bounds, time out wasn't  called, no first down made, or anything.... clock would stop and then not restart until the ref spotted the ball, noticed the clock stopped, and windmilled until the qb was under center.  I'm sure the ump had to ice his shoulder Thursday night from swinging that thing over and over, trying to get the timekeeper to get it moving again (when the stangs were behind, that is...). That's when the timekeeper would restart the clock.  There was an easy 12-15 seconds that WEREN'T run off of the clock after every play while the stangs were behind.  Then, when we didn't protect the ball and lost our lead with 1:57 left in the game, suddenly the timekeeper can't figure out how to stop the clock from spinning.  They had to put time BACK on the clock 3 times in the final 1:57 seconds.  If you have 15 or so errors in the timekeeping, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF WHICH FAVORS THE MUSTANGS...... well, it is what it is. We get it, WOS... the timekeeper was just giving his 112%, too. Too bad that one adult couldn't keep things in perspective.

BC 8A by scoring more points than the ponies.  Again. 

Bah..... BC is going to go bananas if they ever beat WOS.

Hey, Rake..... How's that WOS 8th A playing?  All I'm hearing is gossip from the kids.

Keep sleeping on us....  BC will be in the playoffs again. 

No offense, but did they ever start assigning the best football minds to coach the 7th graders? I always thought seventh grade coaches were the guys that coach mostly because they don't want to drive a bus.
