AggiesAreWe

Final Jasper 9th 0 Silsbee 9th 0

Why? This is some great discussion, Kerry. Don't even try to squash this.

Weren't the other two schools 5A also? Of course you want to downplay it, that's what you do best. But I understand, no problem.

Quit that now. (b...... at it's best) ;D

First, this LONG thread has both positive and negative post on it. It has NOTHING (JMO) to do with WOS, it's about the situation and how it WAS handled and how it SHOULD have or COULD have been handled. The only negative post I have seen is on the girls that left their team. I think WOS has a great football program, but I'm starting to think the WOS fans are WAY to emotional. :'( Starting to think? You should have come to me sooner hippy. I could have clued you in. ;D

But Gabe said last night that he had reported of a forfeit last year by another team for a similar reason. I hate to have to go back and read all these pages to find the post. Page 6 or 7, somewhere along there. Gabe reported of the baseball situation between Hamshire-Fannett and Bridge City. It's probably in last year's baseball forum.

Why do that? People love to down WO-S. C'mon Kerry, let's don't start with the pity party now. You need a tissue? ;D

So now its everybody else's fault because they wont step up and play WOS? : 77 and AggiesWeAre must be related. ;D ;D Thank you for that compliment. ;D

Not sure what kind of teams. This is not a tournament, but a 1 game classic. Don't know what team will be paired against Silsbee.

From the volleyball coaches that I have spoken to this week, they play their games and then go to the football game, regardless of where it is or where they are.

I don't, but I will get them.

Oh no, no, no. I spoke of losing Prentice when he went down in the district game against Orangefield. I knew that he would be missed mainly from a defensive standpoint. He was our best perimeter defender, no denying that. He also was the only player on the Tiger team besides Shannon that could create his own shot. Didn't need to be set up. I spoke of that throughout the rest of the season.

No, but they did miss Prentice Lane in that game. He injured his knee a couple of games prior to that 2nd game with HJ. Silsbee really could have used him in that game and also the playoff games. He helped control Jarvis in that first game at HJ. They really missed his defense. It's nice having a '6"2-'6"3 guard out on the perimeter to defend.

Chris Davis?? Is that the plump kid that rained three's for HJ a few years back? ;D

Not to me they didn't. ;D

CONGRATS SgtRey!!!!!!! Where's the cigars? ;D

But you don't understand, LAZEEK, I have gotten the guarentee of several of the Silsbee players that they will not lose to HJ this season. They promised me that I would not be disappointed. ;D Of course this was a promise made after their game with HJ at Silsbee's summer tourney that Silsbee won by 18. Could have been very misleading. ;D

To quote Ivan Drago in Rocky IV, " You will lose". ;D

I can't wait for tomorrow night. I always look forward to this game. Silsbee/Jasper rivalry always gets my memories a going.

Next week, Gabe knows better to wear the shirt you guys are speaking of up in the pressbox at Silsbee. He'll get thrown out on his rear. ;D

I did the best I could. ;D

I was chastised and then given a warning for posting this over on the downlow. It seems that the genious that has posted all that history stuff over there disagrees with what these guys are saying.

This is the first thing I thought about while reading all 12 pages of this topic. While I agree with many that it appears to be a commiment issue with these girls and their parents, one in which I personally do no agree with. The should not be used by those involved in this thread to take a shot at Hooks. This is not his choice, not his responsibility and not something that he can force, contrary to what the "nay sayers" want to say. Dan Hooks has no authority over the Band, Drill Team or the Cheerleaders. He cannot tell them that they are not allowed to participate at this game from that perspective, it's not even his business. That being said, he COULD have influence from the standpoint of the Volleyball team. Yes, he could probably even force them to quit or not allow them back, but as said above, you go from one forfeit to 7 and those 3 girls are not just getting screwed out of one game, but the rest of their season. If I were Dan, I would leave it up to the VB coach. She knows what's best for her team better than anyone. The bottom line is that this is a poor decision (in my opinion) on the part of the girls and parents. I can live with that Gas, fair enough. Good post!

5th oldest in Texas. I guess that ole saying that these two have been playing since the creation of dirt ain't too far off. ;D One of the best and friendliest rivalries in all of Texas high school football. Mucho respect these two have for each other.
