[quote name="griff" post="1245153" timestamp="1345034888"] Concerning the second stringers comments...WO-S does have second and third string teams. Having 30 or less players doesn't change that.  They have some players not in silver helmets who will be evaluated on the varsity level.  Plus, they have players who will play in positions they normally do not play in order to grade them, as well.  To the coaches for both teams, this is all about grading their teams progress and individual players.  Nothing more, nothing less.  I know for a fact that is true for Coach Thompson.  No game planning or Friday night strategy will be involved.  Therefore, any "score" will not matter at all.  A few comments on here make too big of a deal about this scrimmage.  When I think of scrimmages, I'm reminded of the 2000 season when Lumberton got the better of WO-S in the first scrimmage of the year.  It was a wake up call for the Mustangs.  If the two teams had played in the regular season, WO-S would have manhandled the Raiders.  But the scrimmage did what it is supposed to.  It motivated the players and helped the coaches evaluate the team's progress and what needed to improve. [/quote] Excellent post, griff. As for the "couple of comments", I believe both have come from a "Coopish" Mustang fan. ;)

[quote name="jkbtjc53" post="1244990" timestamp="1344985056"] WO-S doesnt do controlled scrimmages, They do game like scrimmages were the score is kept, only thing different is they dont do live kick-offs and punt returns.. And even if it was controlled fans and coaches still keep score! Only fans and or coaches of a losing/un-successful program say things like "hey guys its just a scrimmage there isnt a score" Last year in the Vidor Scrimmage WO-S won with a last second field goal. Vidor was keeping the score and the time on the scoreboard [/quote] Until the UIL records scrimmages as actual wins and losses on a school and coach's record, then there is no such thing as winning or losing a scrimmage, game type or not. Out performing, looking better, playing better, these are phrases that I think are fair for fans to use in describing their team's performance in a scrimmage. Not win or lose.

[quote name="jkbtjc53" post="1244985" timestamp="1344984097"] Who do you guys have winning this one?? I Have WO-S by 2td's [/quote] Isn't this just a scrimmage? a controlled one at that? Winning...... geesh ::)

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1244881" timestamp="1344968513"] I will refrain from futher comment, then.  But only until the next insult arrives. [/quote] Steve, your comments were only in defense. No harm. Just saw this thread as being senseless and pointless.

USA hangs on to win gold. Final USA        107 Spain      100

3:20 left USA      97 Spain    91

LeBron now on the bench with 4 fouls. 5 minutes left USA    95 Spain  87

[quote name="Mr. Buddy Garrity" post="1244171" timestamp="1344785350"] I wish they would attack the rim [/quote] Why change their philosophy? They are determined to win or lose by the 3!! Sad to say, this is the only kind of offense these guys seem to know.

end of 3rd USA      83 Spain    82 Spain simply out playing US!

WHAT!!!!! NBC goes to a commercial while game still being played!!

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1244161" timestamp="1344782879"] This is hard to watch. [/quote] Yes it is. BTW, '92 teams inside game would destroy both this Spain team and this '12 USA team!

Halftime USA        59 Spain      58 Spain's zone defense doing a good job. USA defense not so good. They are counting on Spain to turn it over and Spain is doing a great job of limiting the turnovers. Spain's inside offensive game is giving USA fits. USA has to attack the rim and not count on the 3 ball so much.

4 minutes left in 2nd USA        52 Spain      49

Spain's Marc Gasol has just picked up his 4th foul!! You only get 5 in the Olympics. He will have to sit a very long time. That hurts Spain significantly.
