We have all heard how confident you are in your defense.  From this point in the season on at some point you are going to run into a team with a very good defense as well.  My questi points againston to you is that if this team manages in one way or the other to score 21 points, how confident un your offense are you? Do you feel like your offense is strong enough to score that many points against a very good defense? What about coming back from a deficit of  14 or more?

A lot of WO-S fans think they will win it all every year.  They have underperformed several years in the playoffs since their move down to 3A.  I think this is their best shot, to date, to win it all in 3A.  Even though they have had some more talented offenses in the recent past, I don't think they have been this good on defense in many years.  They have had many standouts through the years on defense, but this group is like the true chaingang of old.  I wish them the best and hope they bring back a crown to SETexas.  If Jasper survives to see them again in their tough bracket, I will change my tune.  :)

I agree, we have underachieved, but I also agree this is the CHAINGANG D. We will do our best to rep SETX well and I am sure that Jasper and Silsbee will do the same. Good luck to the Bulldogs until we meet again.

My post wasnt supposed to scare you.  I dont know that the Tigers can do that.  Our  defense has had its ups and downs.  My question was just what was stated.  I hope tonights game will be a good one.  I know the Tigers are used to big plays and won't get many tonight so our offensive production will be down. However your avoidance in answering my question speaks volumes as far as your confidence in your offense.

ST14, I encourage you to have a broader view of WO-S fans.  It's easy to focus on a few trumpet blowers on this message board, but I know quite a few of by Mustang friends/alumni who scope this board and they do NOT brag and carry on with bold predictions and constant reminders of this year's accomplishments, etc., not even in private conversation.  Most of the WO-S fans here take the cautious optimistic approach to our chances in tonight's game.  We respect Silsbee and their ability on the field.  This is not Lou Holtz/Notre Dame speak...I mean it.  Personally, I'm tired of the shut-out talk.  It will not shock many of us if Silsbee scores and makes this a competitive game. 

I can safely speak for the "quiet majority" of Mustang fans that we wish both teams an injury-free game and a deep run into the playoffs.

I agree completely and was not trying to stir the put with this thread.  I have heard and tonight will see how good the defense is.  I an just inquiring how WOS fans feel about their offense.  The outcome really has little meaning overall.  Yes its a district title but is that really the goal....

Well, since I come from an era where only the district champ made the playoffs, I consider it very important to a football program. Winning a championship is a good thing, something to be proud of and strive towards. Is it the end all be all? No. But it's nothing to just completely discard.

Winning a state championship is the ultimate goal, but a district title should be a goal as well.

I think the good fans of WOS think Silsbee should just roll over and not play!
[/quote]

I doubt any Stang fan thinks Silsbee will roll over...fetch maybe. Seriously, though should be a great ballgame between two great teams. IN reality this is the first playoff game for both teams, just both survive to play another day. I think the belief among WOS fans is that THIS is our best in recent memory and we expect to go deep because of that. I don't know if Tiger fans think this  this is their best team in recent memory? I haven't heard any say that it is.

I found the shut-out-the-whole-district prediction laughable.  I am not laughing anymore.  Very impressive!

And I am sure the players in this game feel the district title us important.  But from many many of the statements here from fans, this game has little meaning. Out probably has more meaning to we Tiger fans as well much like a district title in basketball would mean more to WOS fans than to ours.  The district title is nice fobragging  rights for fans but in football WOS fans expect a deep trip in the playoffs and want it all like we do on the court.

Dude, I respect your convictions. You honestly think Silsbee is gonna be scared to step on the field? Come on, give them their due. They are a good team. Just stating my belief why Stang fans are so confident. I think and I believe we will win the game..however, I am not playing so my beliefs and actions mean nothing. I have defended MY team as much as you have. No need to be rude or even rub our success in others faces. You think we have to hate Silsbee to win?

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      By Englebert · Posted

      That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.

      Phelan and Karl Rove!

      By Englebert · Posted

      I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.

      But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling.

      Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
