    Hello everyone,

     

    My name is Terrell Brittain and I am deaf. I want to tell you how I feel and need express my feeling as well. I suppose to graduate with class of 1998. I went to West Orange Stark in 1994-1996 and played football and baseball. You don't have to read this if you don't like to read long message! Haha

     

    You might wonder why my user is WOS1986. Let me explain why. When I was little boy and went first state championship WOS vs. McKinney in 1986 that how I remembered. After that, my dad keep take me to watch WOS every Fridays and I told him that my dream is to play Mustang with silver and blue helmet on me.

     

    I went to Texas School for the Deaf in Austin, TX. I realized that there is Deaf world and impact my life that who I am and reason why I have been success with my career. I am professor at University of Houston to teach American Sign Language for Interpreting program. I am proud what I done and pride deaf myself. I marry to deaf wife and had precious 2 kids who are hearing but they know the sign language that can communicate with us which is amazing. I am happy man and enjoy to continue great journey with many more years later. My wife really love to attend WOS game even she never attend WOS and really enjoy to watch football games. 

     

    Sometime, I feel regret that I left without say goodbye or let them know to my friends, players, teachers, and coaches. I played nose guard in defense. In 1994 freshman year, first practice at football was so amazing and coaches allow me to play since most people think deaf can’t play anything which is not true and I prove coaches that I can play. I ended up play junior varsity team after only 2 or 3 games for freshman team because I play so hard and like animal tackle quick. In 1995 sophomore year, practice on the field somehow coach T call my name to play with varsity group then I suddenly shock and not play well myself that is not who I am then coach put me back to junior varsity team again because I was not ready. When I arrived home and I was so mad and upset myself because I was so close to varsity team. Coach call my name to be part of this team for playoff and I was so thrilled about that and I never forget that game which is against LaMarque  in 1995 and lost 7-18. I was so hurt bad and pissed off after that game because I see Sias, Lock, Feathers, and Bernard that they were hurt and want win so badly. One day, Lock and Bernard came to me and chat that we will win state champion in 1997 with our classmate so I agreed with them and make me so fire up and goal. However, I ended up went to Austin school.

     

    I never forget that game in 1997. My team (Austin school) got out of the playoff before Thanksgiving so that Thanksgiving week I went to home and asked my brother to take me to watch WOS vs. LaMarque in the playoff. When I arrived and saw my boys during warm up and was hurt myself because I suppose to play with them. When LaMarque open drive and ran the wide open hole middle on WOS defense. I was so pissed off and sick about that and wish that I played that. Maybe or maybe not, if I played and it could be a little different game because I will big fire up and animal as monster to hit hard LaMarque.

     

    I will always bleed in silver and blue no matter what! Even I live in northeast of Houston and still attend watch WOS in Orange that take me 1 and half hours to drive but worth and show my loyal to them. When I can't go then I always look this website to see follow up the score. I really enjoy to see my old friends.

     

    Please do not critique my grammar English cause English is my second language while ASL (American Sign Language) is my first language. That is reason why I don’t post much after I saw sometime people post and insult their language or poor in English. Everyone treat same equal and its human.

     

    I want thank WOSgrad and kicker that encourage me to post and express my feeling and tell who I am so now everyone know who I am.

     

    Sorry for LONG message that you had to read. It is worth for me to tell my feeling now I feel better. Please share with anyone who doesn’t have this account.

     

    Go Mustangs!!!

     

    Terrell that was a great post my brother. I can say first hand it was a honor playing the game we both love together. You inspired me as well as others in your determination to be the best at everything you did. You sure are bringing back some old memories lol .... Glad your doing well and would love to meet up one day soon so we can catch up and I can meet your family. Once you bleed blue and silver no matter where you end up you will always bleed blue and silver ....

  5. West Orange-Stark 2 Orangefield 0/FINAL/WO-S wins series 1-0

    For the ones who have never played a sport or has no clue what they are talking about read this..... When you have a cross town rival playing to keep their dream alive and I might add playing better then they have all year long just chunk 15-18 year old young men and all that testosterone everyone is gonna talk. Both teams were bumping gums and I see nothing wrong with it at all. The better team won that game hands down and OF should hold there heads high because they did play one hell of a game. I have said it before and I will say it again I would put any of our 4 teams against any district in Texas and I bet we come out on top just about every time. Silsbee92   you might wanna worry about your 2:00 game today and maybe getting your dugout to show up because them BC boys are on fire. And to you Duggs posting on here is all good but leaving kids names out of it would probably be the best route to take. I usually just sit back and read all of this but today I just couldn't help the matter. Great job Mustangs, coaching staff , and Parents for this group of boys that are making great things happen.

    I think this will be a good match between the two. I really hate that we( 22-4A ) half to take one another out but that just goes to show our talent in SETX. Its a toss up for me on this one I just wanna wish both teams good luck and a injury free series. I hope we all have a big turn out these few days and get the support of our community to show these kids how proud we are of them. Hope to see yall tomorrow night as we( WOS ) take on the bobcats.

    Win or loose tonight WOS has shocked everyone in this area in Baseball this year. Our boys have played there hearts out every game and before the season started we were over looked. The silsbee game was the big upset because if you can remember all the post and all the hype about there was no way WOS could score more then 2... Errors are part of the game so no matter the well if he would have done this or if he would have done that sounds like someone that cant give credit when credit is due. We both played with errors but WOS came up with the W that night. I wish yall luck tonight and hope to see another great game between the two teams. WOS 4/LIFE
