Are we talking about the kid from bc a couple of weeks ago? 

Seriously, though… it’s the Silsbee parents fighting each other in the stands, Silsbee players going after each other in their loss to Cuero last year. 
 
“These boys are like family… they’ve lost teammates … they’re protective of each other… other teams pick on them because they’re so good… the other team did it first… are you sure the other team wasn’t using slurs? The kid hurt himself flying over the bench…. It was a freak accident.”
These are just the excuses I’ve heard from Silsbee fans on these boards this year.  
It’s nothing new, and it’s one of the big reasons…. Scratch that, the biggest reason doesn’t have any football hardware in the trophy case. You can get away with it in basketball, but the penalties in football are just too harsh to overcome. 

No it used to happen year after year.  The last few years have been different until this one.  But I do believe what Mike said above teams are coming in and taking advantage of it and we have to stop letting them get to us.

You can’t focus on doing your job if you’re jawing at the guy across from you. 
 
Lack of discipline is gonna sink this ship. 

IMO, some Silsbee players talk too much. But, from what I have seen the last few games it seems it's part of the other teams game plan to get Silsbee to talk too much.
Bottom line, Silsbee is good enough to let their play talk for itself and this other stuff is completely unnecessary.
I get having your teammates back but do it smartly. The rep has been established and the opponent will try to exploit it to their advantage.

WOS vs their own Coaches?
Bridge City vs winning?

I don’t care about the score… I just can’t wait to hear what the WOS faithful have to say if they drop this one.

I hope it’s not serious. 

73 for Silsbee happy bout that

I did.... I used small words.

Lol... He's only gotten one all year.   
I guess we'll see.

I mean, who else are they hurting? A team with that level of talent that is currently undefeated shouldn’t be racking up unsportsmanlike penalties. It’s a sign of a team that lacks discipline and character… both of which will be needed for the six playoff games. My guess is they’ll hit some adversity in week three or four and implode. 
 
Serious white guy take… Most teams wish that they had the potential that Silsbee squanders on an annual basis. 
 
On talent alone Silsbee should lead their series with West Orange over the last thirty years. But don’t take my word for it… the Silsbee faithful will argue all day long that Patrick Reed was a far better qb than the mighty Jack Dallas. But Jack played in three state championship games and Reed was more of a ringmaster than a quarterback. 

This is just my opinion… it’s not something that a coach can fix. It’s a culture issue at this point. They enjoy the reputation of being classless because the level of talent usually gets them a win despite the played out routine. Nobody else glossed them  “Smoketown.” They did that for themselves. 
 
Athleticism kept them in the game against Cuero last year, despite the unsportsmanlike behavior and lack of coaching adjustments. Instead of being nine games into the season and refining the behavior that racks up hundred and hundreds of penalty yards, it seems like they’re feeling themselves abs ramping it up, if anything. But it’s nothing new… it’s been going on for years. 
 
So that’s the question for Silsbee- fans, players, future players, coaches… “when are y’all going to see that you’ll never win it all with that crappy culture?”
Fifteen yards and an automatic first down hurts a lot more than sending somebody to the line for two free throws in a game that’s already out of hand. 

I’m ready to see if they line 99 over Silsbee’s 73…. That could be a battle. 

That’s fun; however, I should point out that as a gentleman who used to run a newspaper, your punctuation could use some help. Lol. 

I went last year to watch PNG and stayed across the street from six flags. I’m not lying when I say that I slept with that thang on my nightstand, son…. I was ready. 
 
I’ll be looking a little further out if comes around again.

I messed that up a long time ago. 🤣 Doing good though. Looking forward to this little feud with the Tigers. 

Yeah.... If I came from a town that was the site of the worst hate crime incident in the modern era, I'd probably hold off on the racial insinuations towards others.
