I do cringe when I see what seems to be a default 40 point win prediction every time the Mustangs take the field.  Last year is last year and it seems like those that make those predictions are

I know exactly what you are saying. We are 9-2, which for 98% of the teams in this state would be incredible. In Gilmer that's not good enough. Probably not in WOS either...........but as I have gotte

My thoughts are to be the best,  you have to beat the best!  Tradition, class, physical football, expecting to win are all things we strive for each day.  We are in the second year of our new mindset

Just an outsider reading the thread.........but there seems to be a lot of discontent among some of the WOS faithful. I actually find that very interesting. The reason I say that is what I saw in my hometown was the same thing. The more we won........the more it was no longer good enough. I was always on that win and advance thought. Many in Gilmer think if we ain't winning by 60 the sky is falling. Just my thoughts for what they are worth.......and that's usually not much.

Believe it or not, people in their own town barely believe in this group of boys. Most think we’ll be done with football season next week. Me personally, I am highly confident in what we have. Just don’t want to see any band wagon fans when the 5th round comes around

You are right on aussie.Some on here think you have to blow out teams every game and then there are some like me that one point more is sufficient.The goal is to win, not to beat your chest like Kong.

I agree with what you are saying.  I also think that many are just unsure of the true identity of this team.  WOS missed their first two games and then played a Bridge City team the first game, that had been through the same situation for game #1.  Silsbee was great test but it seemed they had an identity crisis about that same time getting romped later by LCM.  The Kennedale game showed some muster!  But then the district isn’t that strong, first playoff game is weak and round two wasn’t a convincing win in some people’s eyes.  I am of the opinion with back up QB in and a two score lead...it was fine.  Just get out of the building with a W.  I don’t doubt this teams POTENTIAL....but I do understand the skepticism of some.

What I actually would like to know is... What kind of offense Madisonville runs, Is their QB a pocket passer, and How will they stop our running game? Hard for anyone to do but, How good is there defense?

They run a spread offense that consist of them running it 90% of the time. QB is not much of a passer in my eyes. Heart and soul of their team is their RB #20. He’s ran for about 1500 yards on the season. Of course we all know you won’t get by with just running the ball on WOS. If our Oline hold up we should be able to run at will. Their defense is pretty suspect. Weak link is their secondary mainly. Overall , we should win this game. They don’t have the speed to keep up with us.

Probably not in WOS either...........but as I have gotten older and tried to get wiser............I have tried very hard to enjoy it for what it is, as long as it lasts. Winning Championships is freaking hard, and I applaud everyone who does it. Those who do it multiple years in a row are truly special. Be thankful that your kids compete year in and year out like ours do. It's a pride thing in the community and I understand that. But for the fans the most important thing is to "enjoy the ride" as far as it takes you. Some years it takes you to the ocean, you get to feel the sand between your toes and the sun shines bright. Sometimes you run in the ditch. Every group is different......... enjoy them for what they are. I'm thru preaching now.

I absolutely understand Coach T not being happy with just winning. Its his job to get the most out of the kids and not just be content with getting by. I remember very well his teaching moments. every time we didn't play well it was because of conditioning in his eyes...lol. But as a fan....just win baby!!!

These lessons never leave you, do they? Hundreds still recall these to this day. The program and Coach T himself have made a lifelong impact on boys as they became men. I know you are one among them.

      Republicans don't deserve...

      By CardinalBacker · Posted

      Hold them accountable? Like here in Texas where we have, by any definition, the most conservative Speaker that we’ve ever had. He pushed through an abortion ban and border security measures, reduced school taxes, etc… and the people who put him in office are firing him for not being MAGA enough.    Every third commercial on TV is Trump (or somebody who supports Trump) calling Phelan a RINO and supporting an impotent replacement for the most powerful person in the House.    It’s 100% MAGA, and it’s 12000% stupid.    “oh, he didn’t do those things by himself” says everyone who doesn’t understand parliamentary procedure.

      Me personally I respect posters like @bullets13 @CardinalBacker they vote for a guy and can call out others in the party or the direction a party can be headed.... others on here fall "lockstep" with whatever happens and defend by all means is the mantra it seems... no need to call out names, it's probably you if your mad at this statement 🤣

      I recall prior to midterms the R's and the "red wave" would get America "back on track" etc.... they would end this and stop Biden from that blah blah blah, so what's the problem? It looks like a circus show from both sides and whoever can sit or stand with a straight face and defend it is a 🤡! Desantis would've been a slam dunk for the R's and he possibly would've got my vote... now they pick a guy who lost the popular vote twice lol (yeah I know that means nothing in grand scheme of things).. point being is the dude is highly unlikeable (I also know this doesn't matter) 👈🏾 just getting ahead of the deflectors... personally I hope the clown gets in there so ppl can see how ultra right the clown is trying to push America for... IF he wins in November you can bet he will be on a rampage for 4 years getting lil if anything done, will most likely spend his term for the same thing some of yall complain about daily, going after his opponents... but hey the D's do it right? So yeah it's cool if we do it SMH We're supposed to vote on policies etc while at the same time the person you vote for that made promises to change or fix this and that complains about his predecessor being the issue! It's all a joke What have R's done that's good for America since midterms?  What have D's done? And please leave your feelings out of this and be truthful if possible!
