[quote name="faub10" post="1074498" timestamp="1317870294"] I wasn't meaning that in a rude way,,,,,just saying that your not in houston anymore,,,not a whole lot of talent around this area,,,,it is all spread out,,,,, Gladiators Bucs Combat Vipers Machine Gunners Gc storm Dogs Tribe A few of these teams were from last yr but I'm sure they will still have teams this yr [/quote] Not sure what's going on with the 11U's but Gulf Coast Storm doesn't have an 11U team this year either. We have 12, 13 and 14U teams.

I get paid to sell insurance.

[quote name="skipper" post="1068813" timestamp="1317302582"] i am hopeing for a close game,kirbyville always finds away to give the kids from wo-s fits.i will be looking for the line play in the red zone from the mustangs and see if thay have fixed a few things [/quote] Line play???????? In another thread you said the problem was play calling. Which one is it? I can't keep up with what you claim the problem is COACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[quote name="Rake1" post="1067633" timestamp="1317146833"] I'm not real sure what all the drama is about because I missed the last quarter of the game on the radio while going out of town. Don't have a clue as to what Coach T said or implied. But here are a few things that I do know: 1. Regardless of their pre-season record the district title goes through WOS, PERIOD. I don't care what the "homers" say. If you don't believe they are the dominant program in the area just look at how many threads get started by other schools about "who wins when they play WOS". You rarely if ever see WOS starting a thread about playing Silsbee,BC, or any others. You can not like it all you want but you do have to acknowledge the fact. 2. Yes there are some growing pains going on in Mustang country but they are still very,very, dangerous. 3. The district race will be a good one. Silsbee is talented and coming into their own, BC has as much talent at all the skill positions as anyone, and WOS has a ridiculous defense that is capable of shutting anybody down. 4. Giving credit where credit is due the WOS pre-district schedule was borderline suicidal compared to many others. That's just a fact that's hard to deny. 5. If WOS does not implode from within or from pressure from the faithful they will continue to be the one team everyone else in the district is chasing. If you don't believe that one I bet you a cold drink each team in the district has their date with WOS circled on the calendar. To be fair I would imagine that WOS has their eyes on the other top conteders as well. I look forward to seeing how it all works out. Good luck to all the teams. Rake1 [/quote] I agree with this also. Great post. For the record books that is twice this week that I have agreed with AAW. Now there is some news.

[quote author=Gasilla link=topic=88803.msg1067173#msg1067173 date=1317090198] I've been in or around the program since the early 80's and I can't remember anyone named Owens, ever. [/quote He is being silly. Coach Owens is "skipper". Not really a coach.

This sounds like kids just being kids. I'm not sure why some people are making a big deal out of it. I for one am glad I didn't get caught doing all of the stupid things I did as a teen. Let them take their punishment and move on.

Toby wasn't just the OC, he was a three time state champion in track and field and he helped most of these kids go to division one colleges by taking out his own time and personally bringing these kids on recruiting trips, no other coach did that.

I agree he helped alot of kids. I'm not real sure about your facts and what Toby was offered and what he wasn't offered. I don't know. But what I do know is that before the decision was ever made about who the next head coach would be, I had a conversation myself with Toby. He never intended on staying if he didn't get the job. Those words came from his mouth. I don't blame him at all. I understand his decision. All that being said, I just disagreed with you saying he let them go when that is not what happened. [/quote] Toby knew what he was about to be offered, that's why he said he wasn't going to stay. He didn't want to leave.

[quote name="Gusher" post="1061398" timestamp="1316546930"] Just throwing this out there. If my numbers are correct (chances are they may be off) WOS with #4 has given up 2010 Jr. 28 pts, 2009 Jr.White 6 pts., 2008 Pee Wee 41 pts. in each of the regular seasons. So scoring 50 pts in a game is HUGE. Hats off to PA. ALL of those kids played hard. I bet it was a great game. There again I love them all. [/quote] This is not the 2009 jr white team though. WOS giving up 50 is a big deal. PA is a good team.

Tryouts for our 14U team have been rescheduled for this Saturday September 24th from 8:00-10:00 am at Orangefield High School. Thanks for your interest in Gulf coast Baseball. td

[quote name="SportsPhotographer" post="1060373" timestamp="1316403873"] Thanks Tony. That's the beauty of that site and why I moved my pictures there. Find the picture you like and you can buy it from there. There should be a button that says buy somewhere on the top of the picture. I had tried doing it where people would just tell me what they wanted. That was a big fail because I am always somewhere shooting a game. This site has made it easier, so try it again and let me know if you need help with it. [/quote] I used the site to purchase a couple of pictures and it was very user friendly. Sorry I didn't buy enough for you to retire but I do want to thank you for the pics and the website. The prices were very reasonable also. I'm not aware of us (WOS) having anything like that and I'm not much of a photographer. Thanks for the service you provide. The people of Jasper are lucky to have you. By the way the picture I bought was one at the middle school game where my son (#11 7 A team) was getting creamed. However, he did at least get rid of the ball before he got sacked. Thanks again Tony Dallas

[/quote] You might say that until you play one of these two teams. I can tell you that WOS hasn't given up a point until this game. Not sure about Port Arthur. My guess is these two teams won't give up many points throughout the season.

I have never seen a game that had so many helmets come off. Not only that but shoes too. Strange night. Good win for the Stangs.

It's just that class. The 7th grade does have a B team.

[quote name="TITAN POWER" post="1056591" timestamp="1316001102"] How is this poking the needle at WOS?  This is an article from the Beaumont Enterprise.  Is it not a fact the Redd kid had to go to a hearing on if he could play or not?  From my understanding any kid can transfer out of a school that in Unacceptable without having to sit out.  Even if it was for "Athletic" reasons, do you think he would say it was?  I used to be a WOS supporter but,  come on Thompson,  stop wasting tax payer dollars testifing on a kid transfering on what you heard from other students and from a school that has other problems than their football team.  Let the smites begin.
