    Aint that the truth!! Dad also remained great friends with Bum through his years of coaching at Houston and New Orleans and was even offered a job coaching with Bum at NO but declined.  Those were the days.......

    I got to talk to your dad a year or so before he passed. He didn't care for Green anymore than I did. That guy was a joke of a coach. WO went to the quarter finals in 1974, only because of the players. Green lied to his players and and went so far as to not award a deserving young man a jacket, because that kid called him out on his lies.

  2. Early on, Silsbee was reputed to be the tough team behind WOS. Now, it seems that info has to be wrong, because if they are the best team behind WOS, we have NOTHING in our district. I hate that, because it could bite the 'Stangs in the rear end down the road, when they do get to face a tough team. It is anyone's guess if Silsbee will be able to do anything with WOS.

    Reminds me more of a guy named Roy Williams who played for West Orange Chiefs. He would run 99, 100, 102 yard Td,s back on teams like Jasper, Silsbee, and Livingston. They would kick it to him and he made them pay.

    That was in 1974, the one year that Green had talented players, despite his horrible coaching. Dummy was fast!

    On that play, the ball was spotted by the ump, and the referee came in and move it forward 2 to3 feet and signaled 1st down.  That, along with what appeared to be a challenge without the benefit of replay (which isn't reviewable at any level) which you referenced, were two things I don't ever recall seeing.  I was shocked.   

    Yeah. I forgot that. I saw the 1st down on the pole, get moved to 2nd down. It was crazy. I told the man sitting by me, that I was seeing things happen down that that I had never seen before, and have no idea what was going on. Next time I go to a game, I am bringing my tablet and ear buds, so I can hear what Gary Stelly is saying. I think the game will be broadcast in the morning, on Time Warner Community Channel.

    Never seen that before.  Flag come out after a TD for holding when PAT is pending.  

    I heard it was a chop block, by the other receiver. Dubois raising cane. Never seen anything like that before. Later, in the game, BC lined up on 4th and 1. The chain crew flipped it to 1st down and was moving the chains before the ball was snapped! From where I was at, it did not look like the QB made the 1 yd needed, on the QB keeper. He was met by defense and knocked back behind the line of scrimmage, but it did not appear that forward progress ever made it across the line of scrimmage.

    This is the hidden content, please

    Whats underneath makes a difference. Many people do not know about how good the old Stark field on Green Avenue is. Stark paid a lot of money to have the best field possible. First the field area was built up high, then he had them dig down over 4 ft, and lay down sheet copper. On top of this, rock and sand was added. Then, there were drains added, high and low, that drained to the city sewer system. That field will stay dry in a deluge!

    Just praying for a good clean hs football game & praying for the communities of Orange Co for a healing of minds/actions.We have a large task@ hand but we all must do a part to be united against evil doers.I would have prayer between these schools before kickoff this evening,it's just a game.A day may come when we stand shoulder to shoulder w/our neighbors to defend our nation

    I am out of "likes", or I would like this!

    We are in dire need of new facilities. We are getting a new gym and campus across our district but until things changes we will be at the old field. To be honest I would rather our baseball team get turf and new stuff they deserve it

    They need to expand the stands on each side. The field is fine.

    Good luck to both teams and I hope it's injury free. Visitor side of BC is not very big. I'm hearing that there will be LCM fans going to this game to support the Mustangs better get there early!

    Yeah, BC, LCM, OF, H-F, Anahuac, all of them have small visitor side stands. And, LCM is particularly irritating. I was busy one Friday, and barely could make the game. It was the end of the 3rd quarter and those LCM people were still manning the ticket booth. Seriously?

    Until these sort of acts are Strictly addressed, they will be repeated. In my opinion this borders a Hate Crime to me. If All home games the remainder of the year were players only, the District would feel the pinch and Ensure this sort of heinous act never happens again. This sort of vile behavior must be condemned and exposed for what it is; HATE.  You say the community shouldn't suffer, well I have news for you, both Communities are already suffering. What planet do you live on?? That one kid has stirred up the not so hidden Ugly Side of SETX that made me glad I moved away to go to College. I'm not sure you understand your opening statements, but seems to me that you're concerned more about Football than what damage this has done not only to the WOS kid, but to the Entire SETXcommunity. Yes, that's how deep HATE cuts.  As for the people that liked your comments, I guess they see this as a Football thing that can be solved on the field. SMH

    Praying for both families & communities.

    Hate Crime? Not hardly. Disrespectful? Most certainly.

    It's definitely put a damper on my enthusiasm... We've been looking forward to this test since it was first mentioned last year.  Praying for an injury-free, clean game for both squads. If we can hang around we have a chance.  We've just got to keep the Stangs out of the endzone and take our sweet time getting there ourselves.  Sounds easy enough, huh?

    Go Cards!

    Well, I like the injury free part. As far as keeping the 'Stangs out of the endzone, good luck with that! haha

    And by the way, he didn't break any laws by doing what he did.  He has the right to say or do stupid things.  He won't be arrested.  But he will suffer consequences for his actions, just like if you or I walked into our jobs and started spewing hateful speech around.  

    I stated that a couple pages back

    The Twitter post I saw was from the kid at whom this atrocity was directed.  He also posted for everyone to calm down and just handle business on Friday.  The only hand slapping he deserves is a high five IMO.  And a medal for not overreacting to the jerk off who created it. 

    I understood that someone had posted the picture to twitter.

    Go ahead, make excuses for it.....typical. Last post on this from me, but are you seriously trying to rationalize the hatred that was posted??? So you are blaming WOS for what BC did??? Really???

    I really don't think he is making any excuses, after reading the whole thread. All he seems to be doing is revealing the truth of what happened. It also sheds a different light on who was responsible for what. I also think that whoever posted it to twitter should have their hands slapped for perpetuating the hate.
