In 2000, WO-S was up 14-10 and Nederland was driving in the fourth. They were inside our 20. The QB threw a lateral pass to the WR that tipped off of his fingers and bounced behind him. Although the replays would show that the ball did move forward (a few inches), the referee did not blow the whistle. All of the Nederland players dropped their guard. Noticing that the whistle had not blown, WO-S LB Paul Thomas picked up the ball and started running. As he was picking it up, the crowd was blinded by the light bulbs that suddenly went off above 11 Nederland players' heads. Thomas scored and WO-S won 21-10. I will concede that the ball moved forward, though in real time it was sort of a judgement call, especially considering the "trick play" that Neumann had in the playbook (explained weeks later in a "chalk talk" segment) in which exactly such a situation unfolded (lateral pass, just barely backward, that bounces incomplete, and is casually picked up by the WR - who hurls it downfield to an open man). In the "Chalk Talk" episode, Neumann actually said that it was a great play, "but it has also come back to bite us in the butt." Regardless of the ref's misperception of the ball's trajectory, players should know to not stop playing until the whistle blows. However, it has been a "bring it up once a year" topic for the last six years. The ref blew the call, but not NEARLY as bad as Nederland's defense blew the play. Without sounding too smug, it would NEVER have happened under our DC.

A Garrett quote from that clip: "There's been all kinds of talk over the computer, but Coach T says a game ain't won by talk." I wonder who he's referring to? Thanks, balla! I know. Y'all have a stud too. But Garrett was the guy that destroyed y'all last year.

So, in another thread, you mentioned that the D Line is going to suffer a bit. No trash talk - just real discussion. Depauldrick Garrett, who ran for 187 yards on the Wildcats last year, returns. Add to that a very mobile QB, which we did not have last year, when we earned 247 yards on the ground. Will the Wildcats be able to stop the run this year without succombing to what should be a fairly good passing attack? Do you expect an absolute shootout, or for your D-line to step up and stop WO-S. Personally, I think they have to. In my memory, I can only remember two teams that have EVER put up more than 30-some-odd points on us - one was more than 11 years ago, and the other was a state champion. I don't see a high-scoring shootout.

The two I actually saw that I remember were playoff games. I know Jasper got throttled a lot last year and a few other times since I left in '91, but since I wasn't there I'll let someone else talk about them... 1988 WO-S 38, Jasper 15 1989 PN-G 29, Jasper 18 Both teams jumped on us early and we were never in either game. WO-S just owned us after we won the first game in '86 and they were the best team in SETX without question from anyone at that time. I think the Indians surprised me more because we matched up with them better. They had an RB that year that ran a counter play early and PLOWED our best linebacker (Derrick Wilson), which was symbolic of how that night went. Every time Jasper scored, they had an answer and it was generally a drive that ate up a ton of clock. The biggest rout I ever saw was in 1989 when we beat Cleveland 82-0. To be fair, they had some sort of problem keeping their kids and a bunch of their starters left the team in the week or two leading up to our game down there. It would have been a rout still because Jasper was a very good team that year, but probably with half the points...

hhhhmmmm.....because until Kville backs up the talk and hype it is just that talk and hype. I like how Jasper is just sitting there all quiet like and people are overlooking them. Jasper is well, Jasper.

Yea lets give it a rest and talk about baseball!As a matter of fact the ORANGE Pinto team is doing very well at the state tournament and so far has won 2 of there games, and are presently playing there third as we speak. So Yea lets talk baseball. Good luck Orange in the remainder of your games.The most deserving Pinto team in this area is representing this area very well.Go Orange and I look forward to hearing some updated scores!

Did you know that people who get on here and talk crap on THEMSELVES have small egos and have to TRY and talk trash to catch back up. If you want my personal opinion about this i will tell you. I think that the ETA is overrated, but did i say it was bad, NO! I don't think the tennis program out there is that INTENSE. But i do think it is a good program to make friends and have LOCAL competition. I personally have been to the #2 tennis academy in America(Saddlebrook in Tampa BAy). And that level is on another planet on the level here. And athlete5 is just trying to bring comedy into this and yall are all teaming up on him. I think athlete5 has some good points. And aeropro chill out a lil bitand learn to live a little. ITS JUST A FREAKING JOKE.

just wondering is there any game day rituals that any do??? well me and my homey bigd92(sceen name from other boards) head out to chilli's or similar rest. to have lunch.prior,to that it's crap talk in the various barber shops.arrive at the stadium at 6:30.6:00 for big games. if it's an important game(a must win district game),we sit on the visitors side and hecle the fans.out of town we stay on our side. WHAT ARE YOURS

I stay off by myself and don't talk trash to anyone. I can't sit on Lee's home side for sentimental reasons, but trust me that no one would ever know I'm a Lee fan on the visitor side. I sit there and take in the game and nothing else.

If football was to return I hope people would shell out the cash to buy season tickets to get the entire program off the ground...Too many times SETexas athletic junkies talk about "how they would love LU football, or how they would love a Triple AAA ball club back to BMT"....Bottom line would be people supporting the programs just like in all cities.....I'd do it in a heartbeat!

Patitan don't you agree it takes a sorry man, or child, which ever you are, to talk about a kid having time still to break something. Sounds like you need time out in the corner!

Sounds like what I heard last year, right up until the slaughter. Then there was like a week of silence. So my coughing will directly affect the outcome of the game? Cool. *cough* *cough* Our RB who ran for almost 200 on y'all is still here. *cough* *cough* (avg'd 14.4 YPC in the game to Rhodes's 2.6) *cough* *cough* 485 yards to under 200 yards *cough* *cough* *cough* Talk when you prove you can back it up. *cough* *cough* Orangefield played us much harder. *cough* Maybe y'all can beat Silsbee too if I keep it up, huh?

more like 4... check up on it if you dont think .. and you no alot of crap is talk on here. leta just wait till aug 31 baby

Thank God Dayton is not titan good. 9-3 is a hell of a lot better than 6-5 and barely beating two terrible teams in Ozen and Channelview. Did you all get a defense in the offseason? You all were #206 in the state in points allowed? And don't pull that you all play better teams. West Brook and Lamar are the only two legitamate teams that are on your schedule. You barely beat Lee and Central spanked them. And I could not let PA think he could talk smack with nothing to back it up.

haha you can talk in spanish. how cool! ???

WH could easily beat liberty in any sport. i think we did beat liberty not once, but twice in basketball this year. so until you beat us in something, don't talk trash. I'm just as sure HD could beat liberty and so could hardin

Good. That gives me 4 sites on which to talk trash to patitan now ;D

I dont' have a pre-game ritual. I do have an after-game ritual. I have some homeboys I talk football with after the game. One and Ozen fan, a couple of them are Brook fans. Sometimes we go to Waffle House. Yea, Titan, me, you, 85, and Bigd gotta get together one day.

Oh, I don't think Coop will turn us off too soon, what else do we have to talk about besides our home town and football.

Youre welcome!, this last year on our board there was talk of getting shirts made with the bleacher creatures logo on it what do ya think? i thought i would bring it to youre attention since you were instumental in getting the flags made.

yea...i should have known if i said anything in this thread the wo-s faithful would be all over me. so...here i go again, yes we had about three guys injured going into week zero, one being a pretty important piece...basically who we lived and died by. none of what i said was an excuse..i was just saying, we struggled w/ everyone on our schedule, when you start injured and stay that way, and are not conditioned well (which is why im glad we have someone like coach stump to clean some of the mess up here), you're going to struggle. thats it, i wasnt tryin to dodge around why we werent top noch with all these excuses...like we cant stop anyone because our shoes were on too loose or something, please im not that immature you try to make it out like everything i say is trying to belittle what you did, im not, you guys reload every year and honestly like everyone else on this board, whether they want to admit it or not, im jealous lol i wish we had that kind of talent year in and year out in bc. and i never said anything about playcalling/coordinators/players etc so please dont put words in my mouth but as far as this year goes, i only know enough to talk about bc and they are not making the playoffs, they will get better but not that good. but i dont know enough about other teams to make a educated list...but if i were a bettin man 1 wo-s -garrett is the best rb pound for pound i've ever seen 2 kville- rhodes and hazelwood will get them there 3 jasper- tons of experience coming back didnt lose their qb or rb like silsbee

Yeah Shepinto your right. I was unaware of the sourlake incident. I got a call from that crazy girlplayer and told me I should read what pdj said about the sbyo. Souhld I strat wirtnig lkie jDp. When she started in saying one grandparent from Orange went to another grandparent from another league and told another grandparent from some where else and what ever else nonsense I lost it. I love my grandparents but I'm sorry, my grandparents gossip on what really happened is like our little forum on steroids. Anyway, go Orange Pinto, I know yall left today, good luck and hope to hear from yall soon. Girlplayer are you gonna start some more smackdown tonight? You need to leave this forum and go to our sbyo forum. jDp's gonna talk about us oRANGE pEoPle AgIan.

haha sure is a lot of tennis talk on here.. and thanks for that that was real cute

Interesting to talk about this, but in many cases it is nearly irrelevant on the football field. I can remember one guy who was very muscular, but couldn't take a hit. That guy was scared to jump on a fumble--he was afraid of mixing it up in a pileup. Conversely, I remember some guys didn't look like much, but were tough as nails. 8)

That was his only bad game, and talk about out talented. If HF had any kind of offense last season, they make a playoff bid with Broussards stout defense. He did a lot, with little. Great pick up for PNG! The kids will love playing for Broussard.
