    shovel got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in Kliff doing work   
    Kliff needs to recruit a DC. The fired one had a drug problem. His defense was getting "drug" all over the field (What little defense he had!)

    I'm not sure what to think... If that is an indictable offense, my high school coaches and parents should still be in prison. The world has changed since I was kid.

    Not yet! There is still that Mariotta guy in Oregon.
    I'm still big on Petty though. Let's see how he plows through the conference schedule.

    You know in life people can push and push, and you think you have to stand your ground. In most instances you do, but today a kid who one called a thug said to me in a calm voice. He said daddy just move aside and let all that hit the ground. In shock I asked what that means, if you move from in front of the nonsense, it will land where it belongs. Wow never to old to learn, and never know who you will learn it from. Thank everyone who know the real Leon, and know he is just a big kid learning. Love #1 #7

    Glad you enjoyed it Buddy! I've owed you for awhile. I, too enjoyed the show and seeing the crew. It was great to finally meet The Smoking Baby, and especially the Mayfield family. A pair of nice young men that we'll be hearing good things about for the next few years. Glad the show was in my neck of the woods and looking forward to doing it again.

    We can go on and on about bad officiating. Both teams benefited from bad calls. However, as bad as we thought they were, they did not decide the outcome of the game. WOS held a high-powered PNG offense to zero points in the second half. The refs had nothing to do with that. The better team won last night.

    This one hurt.  I will say this....WOS is a very good team.  Hats off to the team and their coaches for an outstanding game played.  My top 10 thoughts on the game are this:
     
    1. PNG's offensive line is not very good.  WOS D-line is good, but PNG had problems run blocking and protecting the QB in both games.
     
    2. WOS's defensive backs are unbelievable
     
    3. The replacement qb that came in for WOS should not be taken out again this year
     
    4. I've seen a lot of football in my life, never have a seen a game more mismanaged by an officiating crew than this.  Didnt see anyone mention where PNG has 3rd and a coupe for the first, WOS jumps offsides, PNG qb throws deep as they always do on an offsides, PNG receiver gets mugged, and a flag comes out by the receiver indicative of the PI....nevermind, ref accidentally threw flag, as flag was waived off???? and no offsides was called when WOS was a yard in the backfield at the snap, which brought up 4th down on a critical drive.  I could go on and on with unfavorable calls against PNG, but its not worth it, and WOS deserves more credit than that. 
     
    5. PNG offensive line is very undisciplined....again.
     
    6. Morse, Giblin, and Sparks are the real deal....Halfin could be with an O-line.
     
    7. WOS's #6 is a great player, but is a head hunter....I like that type of swag when they play on my teams.....however, he communicates too much...and I wouldnt have him at WR.
     
    8. WOS has some slippery players on offense, but PNG defenders do not tackle well.....again.
     
    9. Both of these teams will go on to have good years and will be better for this game.
     
    10. WOS announcer shouldnt cheer on the home team over the speakers (distasteful) and well below the stature of a team like WOS.  Also, the pa system is terrible.

    shovel reacted to stangx2 in Port Neches-Groves 27 West Orange-Stark 33/Final/OT   
    I agree with one thing..it was the worst officiated game since last  year at the reservation. Bad calls all the way around on both sides. WOS sucked it up and won with a kid who hadn't played qb EVER in a varsity game and probably not since freshman year maybe longer. When is the last time the Mustangs won a game with the ground game. Great game by two great teams. PNG is very good, we kinda slowed them down with our pass rush in the second half and they had to keep the back into block. Great QB PNG has, they should win that district in my mind this year. You just don't come from 2 TD's behind and beat a team like PNG, proud of the heart we showed tonight.
     
    Never underestimate the heart of a champion. Good luck Indians the rest of the way.

    All jabs aside, sounds like this was a great game for both teams to build on. These kind of games usually help come playoff time.

    shovel got a reaction from Fevertree in Underfunded Pension Plans- what should be done?   
    The answer should be simple, but it is not. I work for a company that has reduced my pension and eliminated it for new hires. While I understand this from a business perspective, you also have to look at this from a retirees point of view. Many of these employees spent the better part of a lifetime earning this pension. To give them anything less than what was promised is criminal.

    Mack, I hope on Friday morning I can tell you that are right! Anxious to see how A&M can score on a SEC defense. Not sold on SC not having enough offense. You cant discount any Spurrier led team.

    shovel got a reaction from usedtobe in Well, I guess controversial topics are off the board.......I go to listen only   
    Hippy, there will be a lot of threads locked down. There are a couple of posters here that refuse to honestly discuss anything. They choose to come into a thread, crap all over it, blame Bush, teabaggers or Republicans, holler racism, and smdh. Until this ceases, we will no longer have any meaningful discussions on the political forum. All these threads will be locked and the board owner may choose to shut down the forum. I hope not, but wouldn't blame him a bit.
