[/quote] Uh, no not really...The negative karma (as if it means anything at all) came from one poster last year around the time of the 3rd round game against Kirbyville which CS won...My understanding is that he gave negative karma to just about every poster from CS.... I didn't say anything bad about Wimberley...I merely gave my opinion based on what I observed last year and what I feel will happen tomorrow evening... I do wonder, however, why you seem to be so preoccupied with posting in this thread... [/quote] The same thing happened to me last year.

[quote name="ArgyleEagles" post="1140236" timestamp="1323112288"] Check out www.highschoolsports.net. They use the same college algorithm to determine high school sports rankings. Argyle - 2 Oakhurst - 5 Wimberley - 6 [/quote] Who is Oakhurst? You mean Coldspring-Oakhurst.

[quote name="Socrates" post="1140143" timestamp="1323103209"] Argyle might want to take a lesson from UH and not count your chickens before they hatch. [/quote] I was thinking the same thing.

I'm sure you would treat us pour Trojans the same if you won. [/quote] I guess as a CS fan I don't really see it the same way...Yes we did beat WOS in basketball last year, however, we haven't won anything yet...It was awesome to witness the run to the state title game last year and watch this years team try to get back but until we're able to actually win a state title or two no matter how much I love my trojans and the kids who play for them we simply won't have the skins (so to speak) on the wall that a team like WOS does...All smack talk aside WOS state championships in multiple sports speaks for itself...Has CS had the upperhand the last few years? Yes but fortunes could reverse just as quickly... There was alot of smack talk on both sides but IMO most all WOS posters have been nothing short of gracious and complementary following a hard fought loss...The fact that they're able to do this shows that they've seen the cyclical nature of sports and understand that you win some, lose some... Just enjoy the ride because what the boys from CS have done so far the last 3 years is really special... Very few teams get to enjoy thanksgiving and december highschool football...They're making memories that will literally last a lifetime... [/quote] Well said!

Second question: is the Sykes related to James who played in the NFL and Rice? Thanks [/quote] Not sure about Scott.  Most likely related.  And I think James is his daddy. [/quote] Coach James Sykes (Cleveland ISD) is not Jerrell Sykes' daddy. I think Coach Sykes is Jerrell's uncle. Jerrell's dad was a great athlete too. I don't think Alfred Scott and Pharnell (sp?) Scott are closely related; however, they may be.

[/quote] The sad thing is Coldspring excels at many other sports... they just don't have the fan base that football does... I guess those sports just aren't as testosterone filled. ;) [/quote] Huh???? Have you been to a basketball game? Of course, not the same fan base; however the gym is always packed. Additionally, baseball and other sports have solid support...Trojan Pride is evident in all areas of boys sports, band, etc.....not that it matters for this thread.

[quote name="speveto" post="1137334" timestamp="1322848759"] I look for the weather to be perfect.  Couldn`t ask for better weather in December. I`m  "PLEADING" to the Mustangs,  Don`t "HOLD", don`t "GET INTO A FIGHT", don`t "BLOCK IN THE BACk"  and don`t do that "ILLEGAL PROCEDURE" thing. (thank you) [/quote] Ditto to the Trojans!

Today is the day that we have all been looking forward to... Thanks for keeping it real, but staying respectful of both teams. Go Trojans...Good luck tonight.

[quote name="Kville_Kats" post="1136107" timestamp="1322743845"] My predictions on the game: This thread may not make the top ten in all time high post's...But I bet after the game is played." THE INFAMOUS REASON WHY WE LOST THREAD" Has an excellent chance, filled with all your favorites... we fumbled too much,bad refs,bad coaching,too many penalties,jock strap too tight, wrong flavor of gator ade in cooler...and countless others you have grown to Love.... ;D ;D ** Solely for entertainment and amusement purpose's only..Educational value less than 2%....Good Luck To Both Teams.. [/quote] Funny, but I actually hope/pray that the referees are a non-factor in the game.

I miss Scooter and his posts.

Years ago, they used to be a power house. They have athletes with potential.

Class act!

[quote name="kicker" post="1133957" timestamp="1322525352"] [quote author=chs11 link=topic=92269.msg1133921#msg1133921 date=1322523603] wow, I have a hard time thinking we'll score that much. I believe we can get at least two td's up on the board, maybe a third, but we will not kick field goals, we'll go for it every time. Knowing wos's kicker has quite the boot I bet they'll kick field goals if they can't punch it in from the red zone. My prediction is 20 - 13 coldspring. I wonder if wos believes in it's defense enough to go for the td in the redzone instead of just leaving with some points?    I ask this because our defense stiffens in the red zone, but you never know, this may be a moot question if they just score on the first three downs every time. Lord knows we miss about 3 opportunities every game to come away with some points, though. [/quote] Great question. Seems like the redzone has been our nemesis all year long. For some reason, we have had problems punching it in. Even from the 2 at times. I.e. Nederland, Friendswood, and Giddings. Giddings was the worst. I believe we were in the redzone 6 times. And inside the 10 yard line each time. Seems CS has had similar problems. [u][b][b][b]The more we talk about this game, the more it looks like teams that could change uniforms and not notice a difference[/b][/b][/b][/u]. [/quote] I actually thought the same thing.

[quote name="Homer" post="1132956" timestamp="1322424757"] I think one interesting aspect of this game is that from what I have seen Coldspring usually starts off fast and struggles a little late and WO-S does the opposite.  Some of that may have to do with conditioning and at this point you either are or you are not.  WO-S seems to be hitting another gear late when their opponents are sucking wind.  Is CS in shape to play with the Mustangs in the 2nd half?  That is one benefit I see the Mustangs having from all the close games they played all year and the Trojans "resting starters" in the 2nd half all year through the blowouts.  Can the Mustangs keep within striking distance early and if the Stangs lead at half it could be trouble, but who knows. [/quote] Good point!

Great post... a lot of truth!

[quote name="falconfanatic" post="1131868" timestamp="1322352547"] [quote author=VNUPE link=topic=92269.msg1131856#msg1131856 date=1322352169] Throughout the playoffs Coldspring has been surviving and WOS has been rolling it's opponents......and you guys think Coldspring is gonna turn it around this week????? [/quote] Cs has played a lot better opponents in the playoffs than wos has. Just like wos played better opponents in the regular season and struggled while cs rolled. [/quote] I agree. This also gives WOS a slight advantage. IMO they are "rolling" at the right time. 

I must give credit where credit is due. Lorena's fans and team are the epitome of character and genuine kindness. I noticed that during the game, their players constantly helped ours up after a play. At the end of the game, as our band played our school song, their players stood respectfully. We stopped at a local gas station, where there were several Lorena fans, and each and every one of them complimented our team. This Trojan fan was totally impressed with the Lorena team on the field and the Lorena fans off the field.

Epitome of stupid!

[/quote] That would be great but if we don't focus on Bullard and CS doesn't focus on Lorena then it will be a Lorena/Bullard quarterfinal. That would royaly suck. The best teams in the region to make a run against Reg 4 ( I'm guessing that is the semifinal matchup) would be WOS or CS, so we need to both take care of business in the third round. Let's have a injury free weekend for all teams!!!! [/quote] Agree 100%...good post!

Two of Crocketts players were involved and played then bragged about it on Saturday to one of Newton's players on facebook. Now this is what this is about. No names. If it happened like that it is a violation of UIL rules for the kids to have played. [/quote] The key is going to be whether the students were assigned to DAEP (disciplinary alternative education program) or ISS (in school suspension). There is a difference. [/quote] I think it will come down more to timing.  If the act occurred on Friday, I could see Crockett ISD arguing that they had to have the opportunity to investigate and determine the extent of the issue and could not make a placement into DAEP until after the game.  Remember, if the act is one specified in 37.006, there is no disrection, the student MUST be placed in DAEP. [/quote] Wow...you are absolutely right, perfect loophole!

Great post!

[quote name="j_dog" post="1126348" timestamp="1321898039"] I am pulling for Coldspring, and they should be the favorite.  But Lorena scares me for you.  I saw them a couple or so years ago.  Big corn fed boys.  Not particularly fast, but somehow they found a way to beat a superior (my opinion) Center team.  CS, better put them away early.  Don't let them hang around. [/quote] I totally agree...we put them away before half-time a couple of years ago and they still came back to beat us. We should know from experience not to take this team lightly!

[quote name="Coach Comeaux" post="1125790" timestamp="1321826981"] As the Golden Triangle held of their foes in round 2, Teams in round 3 just don't have a clue, As they tighten their cleats and strap up their chin straps, They know the next win won't come with a gift wrap, So the schools fuel the tanks and load the buses, And the coaches add up all the minuses and pluses, The teams head to the field of battle, Where we all know the stands will shake and rattle, And when its all said and done.... no matter win or lose we will all say our team is number 1!!!!! ROCK ON SOUTHEAST TEXAS!!!! GOOD LUCK PIRATES! GOOD LUCK BULLDOGS!! GOOD LUCK PANTHERS!!! GOOD LUCK BRONCOS!!!! GOOD LUCK KELLY BULLDOGS!!! GOOD LUCK WOS MUSTANGS!!! GOOD LUCK PA TITANS!!!! GOOD LUCK CS TROJANS!!!! GOOD LUCK EC BUCCANEERS!!! SWEET 16 is where we sit.... lets all hope the Great 8 is where we GET!!! [/quote] Love it! Thanks for including the Coldspring Trojans! Good luck to all teams of SETX :)
