Beaumont United 45 Baytown Sterling 0/FINAL


WOSgrad

Recommended Posts

My general assessment is that the Timberwolves did what they were supposed to do, beat the team in front of them which was no doubt a lesser opponent.  

The Wolf defense picked up where they left off from 2 weeks ago.  Coming into last night's game, all I heard was about Sterlings RB Hill having over 2,300 total yards last year.  Well the defense held him to around 20 yards the entire game in my estimation.  The defense held the Sterling offense to if I recall correctly, 1 first down in the 1st half and maybe a total of 5 for the entire game.  10 points in 2 games given up since switching from the 4-3 to a 3-4 scheme and moving a few kids around.  No turnovers created by the defense last night but the defense came out of the game healthy going into next weeks match up.  

Now to the offense.  6 TD's were scored last night but one was a punt return and the other was a kickoff return.  So 28 points by the offense was a ok start and something to build on but could have been a lot more but I understand that there was no need to pile it on and show too much going into next weeks match up.  3 TD's were passing (43,5,10) and one running (24).  QB seemed to make some good decisions and good throws at times but every now and then it seemed predetermined and forced which luckily didn't result in a turnover.  He will be fine.  O-line didn't give up a sack that I can recall but it seems like something is lacking in the run game blocking.  They are using a RB by committee because to me it seems as though nobody has established themselves "as the man" in the backfield.  The potential is there though.  A few drops by the WR's but not many and luckily this wasn't a game where it could come back to haunt us.  No turnovers last night by the offense but there will be a few guys getting treatment this morning.

Like I said earlier, the Wolves, coaches and players, did what they were supposed to do last night, they got the first win in United football history.  It was also a good confidence booster for the team as a whole going into next weeks rivalry game.

    • It’s terrible no matter what happened. I am always concerned with the news media and social media outright lies or incorrect information that is put out, maybe in a rush to be first. Watching the video, it is easy to see that some of the earlier claims are simply nonsense. The officer might be cleared or he might face trial but we should be disgusted with the misinformation. Having been on scene or shortly after an officer involved shooting three times, I can say that some information that comes out is a complete fabrication. This is a horrible situation no matter who was at fault. I wish that the nonsensical false information would stop. That won’t happen…..  
    • Trump walks to the beat of a different drummer so he could very likely pick a person that is on no one’s radar. Going by typical political logic, assuming that a VP pick might bring 0.5%-1% votes, who should it be? A half to one percent is not much but in a potentially razor thin election, a couple of thousand votes in a state could decide the presidency. Biden won AZ by just over 10,000 votes. The most recent Beaumont mayoral election, where almost no one votes, had over 15,000 votes cast. In GA it was 12,000 votes and Biden did not even get 50%. In WI it was 20,000 and again Biden didn’t get to 50%.  There are other states in that area of percent point difference. How important? If any two AZ, GA and WI flip, Trump would have won. So while the VP probably never matters…. can it this time? I think that it could. What then does the VP pick bring to the table? FL and SC were both won by Trump in 2020 so a favored son vote for Rubio or Scott won’t help Trump. Both are in a fairly comfortable position within the conservative community so they will neither hurt nor help with strong conservative voters.  What about the few fence riders that could and likely will determine the election by either sticking with Biden or switching from the last election? What about the people who did not vote in the last election, but may come out to vote in this one just to support the VP candidate? Could Scott sway a percentage point or two from Black support? Could Rubio help draw a percentage point or two of Hispanic support? Possibly on both counts. Like I already mentioned, they won’t help in their own states because Trump already won those in 2020. I personally think that either would actually do a good job as president (although VP picks are about the politics of being elected and not the “best” possible president) and might be the difference in a few votes but a few votes more is all that is needed.  Or…. My outlier, Tulsi Gabbard.  She had some decent support when are ran for the presidency in the Democrat primary. Could some people follow her because they support her and not necessarily the party? I’m sure that’s true for all candidates. Could she bring female support? As a strong mentally and physically person and a member of the military who was deployed into a combat zone into Iraq. Then she went to OCS and became an officer, then deployed to Kuwait. Can that military history, including deployment into a war swing some votes? As of late, she has been on a one person tirade against Biden and the Democrats. Let’s remember that Ronald Reagan was a Democrat and so was Texas governor John Connally. Connally was not only a Democrat governor in Texas but also Secretary of the Navy under JFK. Both ended up switching to the Republican Party so there is a fairly strong history of former Democrats switching parties and being successful, all the way up to the presidency. Gabbard is a pretty fiery campaigner and doesn’t mince her words. She would really be a thorn in the Democrats’ hopes and has the inside knowledge of the party. Could she potentially swing more votes than Scott or Rubio? I think so. But…. I don’t think that Trump would pick her and I’m not sure that she would accept if offered. Her odds of being Trump's pick are at about 1%.  Scott or Rubio at about 10%. Trump being Trump, will choose someone who no one has ever heard of.
