To those don't care 4 North Shore

[NSStangs#1fan]

As a NS supporter a question has been going through my mind ever since I joined this board. What do ppl have against us??? IT seems like SOME ppl alwayz have something negative 2 say. YEAH we lost but there's no since in kicking a dog once it's already down! So what if ppl choose to rank us #4, #3, #7! We don't have control over that! We just get out there and play the games. We take all this crap about us being overrated, our weak district, and so on and so on. Just to let yall know we get tired of hearing about things we have no control over! We don't pick our rankings. Do u think we wanna play in a weak district? I mean don't get me wrong the 60-0 is nice, but I'd rather be more prepared for the POs. I'd rather go the whole season unranked and unpraised if it would mean that we could stop hearing all these negative things. Even today as soon a LP lost some ppl were quick to say they were overrated. NS isn't gonna start losing just b/c we think the other ppl in our weak district (no offense guys) deserve a chance, that's not our job. I know most of the fans try not to get on here and sound cocky and 4give me if I do but I just get tired of the BS. In another thread somebody else said we didn't even deserve to be playing Pearland yesterday:confused: :rolleyes:. All NS does is practice and show up and do our best (well sometimes). Can we catch a break! I know not every1 talks down on us and forgive me if u don't, but man our boys work hard just like every other team and where ever their success and har work gets them (or not) so be it!

[NSStangs#1fan]

I made a typo it should be "To those who don't care for NS"

But anywho I'm glad I got that off my chest!

[CyFair'86]

You deserved to be playing yesterday. You played your way into the game against Pearland. As far as the haters just ignore their posts. There are a few on here that when I read their posts I just say to myself there they go again. Don't let it get to you.

[toddg]

during the short time i have been on this board..you are the least cocky, and one of the most honest posters i have had the pleasure to read and respond to...no NS hate here!

[NSStangs#1fan]

Thanx guys! It was building up and I had to let it out.

[CyFallsMom]

Hey I was hoping for a NS/Cy Fair matchup! I did think that the team seemed like it was running out of gas the last 3 games but no disrespect to NS - they have a great program over there...one that many are probably extremely envious of.

[woodlands2]

i just tunnel that anger into playing harder. i love to see peoples reactions when they get proved wrong

[okt0ber]

Do you really REALLY want me to get into this? Because I have a lot to say about it........


Lets start with Galena Park ISD. You have NSHS, who is the golden child of the district. Nice new neighborhoods with big houses and tax revenues. Then you have GPHS, who is the step child that gets the shaft at everything. North Shore gets additions to make their school bigger, and GPHS gets the boundries redrawn to send more kids to North Shore.

Now, go ahead and respond about GP being landlocked and there isn't anything to can do about it... I'm listening. Now, ask Katy ISD what they did with the Mayde Creek campus and then come to me with that excuse.

Then there is their forever going on and on about how it's such a wonderful school district, they're exemplary (or were, until TAKS), yada yada yada. Wow, anyone can teach a kid to take a test just so the district looks good! Exposed with TAKS, though....

Then there is the whole being supported by La Porte ISD's Robin Hood money. Granted, they is nothing anyone can do about that, I still don't like the whole scheme. That's a whole other topic that I'll stay away from, though. Unless people really want my to disect Texas school funding, because I can and will.

And there, of course, there is North Shore High School itself. Well, being a Deer Park grad, you sorta get a bad taste in your mouth after seeing 3 overtime losses while going to school at Deer Park. This is probably where most of the animosity comes from, really.

And then there was the 2003 season. I remember sitting in the Alamodome with Westlake fans watching the Chaps get torn apart by North Shore. Then, after the game was over I remember how the North Shore fans treated the Westlake fans. It was the most terrible thing I've seen. Holding their "state bound" signs in Westlake fan's faces, and pointing and laughing. They have to have been the most ungraceful winners I have ever seen in my life. Probably because they had never been there before, and those people probably didn't know how to act.

Then there is the whole.. there is nothing unique about North Shore. The colors are red, the mascot is a mustang, and the fight song is pretty just ordinary. So, they don't earn any points in my book there like Churchill or Hays does.

But anyway, you asked and I told.

[Drake]

NSStangs#1fan - I don't think anyone has anything against your school or team, it's just that this is a HS football message board so people are going to lay their opinions out there...

After seeing NS against Baytown Lee it was pretty obvious that NS wasn't prepared to pass if it had too, much like the old Nebraska and OU teams that dominated most teams. Whether NS was over-rated or not they certainly didn't meet everyone's expectations for them, but no one has said it was for lack of effort. Maybe it was the expectations that was unfair?

and lets just sit here and nit pick everything thats wrong with a school that your envious of because they beat you 3 years in a row.. like your school is perfect

Never claimed it was, but he asked and I told.

And, they've beaten Deer Park much more than 3 years in a row now. I think it's something like 7 or 8 years in a row at this point.

I wouldn't have typed out all that if he hadn't asked our opinion.

I would expect the same thing if I asked why people hate Deer Park. duh.

...and NS was the step child to GP for HOW MANY years?? Even though they may hold a little grudge against us, they're like our sister skool and I see quite a few of them @ our game cheering us on and vice versa.
... We got beat up by other teams 4 HOW MANY years. I mean come on every1 is gonna get their chance to shine
... I dunno too much about the money from LaPorte b/c I'm just a Sr. in HS who was behind my team all the way and wanted to c them in the title game like every other Sr does. All that legal stuff is not something I know too much about.
... Of course I expect all this from DP b/c I KNOW yall don't like us. If yall hate us so much w/ the rest of the district (not saying they do) BEAT us and SHUT US DOWN.

What does most of this other stuff have to do w/ the FB team! This would apply to ppl in our district yes but every1 else no.
We don't ask 4 praise! We don't asked to be ranked! We told this whole board from the get go that our O would let us down and they came through. Of course we predicted our team @ state how many schools don't? Every team wants to be there in the end

[woodlands2]

well it seems like youve payed pretty close attention to them over the years. more than ordinary and your not even in high school. youre just trying to make your school seem better by describing all thats wrong with north shore just because theyve beaten you how ever many years in a row. just let them play, may the best team win, but dont try to blame it on how nice the school is or how bad their academics are.

[NSStangs#1fan]

As we say in the street....you're not a playa until you've been hated on. When people talk bad about you....you must be doing SOMETHING good.

[HoustonFootball75]

if u want to talk about ppl not giving a team respect or ppl saying something bad about them. try playing for kingwood. but i dont think it matters anyway. who really cares what everyone says about a team. all that matters is what the team thinks and the way the play. whether a team is good or bad there are always going to be people that say stuff about them. thats just life. its about what the players think and what they believe inside. they dont need anybody else but the guy standing right next to them. thats just the way any sport is.

No, go schedule some tough out of district games. It will make you a much better team and stop the hating. I think your team would have advanced alot further this year with a tougher out of district schedule. You don't learn much from 60-7 games.

We STILL don't have control over where sites rank us! That's y ppl complain. B/c we play we win and we rank!

Not to take away from the program, but a tougher pre-disrtict schedule didn't help out TWHS much. We will be playing them for a while though esp. if they beat us next yr.! But like I said b4 if u think the NS fans enjoy playing weak teams then u must not know us! We would love some real competition, but the fans nor the team schedule the games.

[poppab02]

I'm not saying you do enjoy playing weak teams, however if enough boosters start complaining about it, the school will listen. It usually takes a few years for teams to adjust to playing tougher out of district schedules, but in my opinion it will do nothing but help you in the long run.

That's very true! Us over here @ NS, as I'm sure yall do in Katy are awaiting the day the 2 teams meet!

[Oiler99]

hey ive alwayz been a fan of the shore, everyones got a down year, but maybe next year yall can overcome the second round thing.
This comes from someone who had to shake hands after gettin 10-0 record ruined by a slaughter. Nothing but respect.

[panamamyers]

When was this schedule for North Shore finalized?

The Woodlands is a good team year in and year out. Eisenhower used to be a good team. Who else did they play in the non-district?

The main part of the schedule that people hate on is the part that NS can't control. Yes, they play in a horri district, but what can they do? The UIL puts them in there and they play the games.

I don't think there's really anything that North Shore does that makes people get mad at them. Like has been said, it's pretty much the fact that others rank them high and tell everyone that North shore is a team that needs to be watched out for...

It's kinda like A&M in the SWC in the late 80's early to mid 90's. They kept getting ranked up high. They would blow through the crappy SWC, then get the tar beat out of them in the bowl games or maybe even slip up and lose a conference game they shouldn't. Texas was basically the same way pre-2005, just so Aggies don't think I'm picking on them. Texas would be ranked highly. This is the year, they got it all this year, all those star players are going to come through. Then, inevitably they would lose one or two and people would complain at how overrated they are every year. Like it's Texas' fault.

Think back to Florida State before they finally broke through. Think back to Nebraska. Always ranked high, Osborne can';t win the big one.

You're just naturally going to draw some heat if you're constantly ranked high and then constantly get eliminated before your ranking would say you should. Just be happy that North Shore has good teams every year to be ranked that high in the first place.

[Prideplayer]

I don't talk smack about North Shore or anything, but since I do attend Westlake and I was a freshman when that massacre of a semifinal happened in 2003, I still don't particularly like them. It's probably just cause I'm still scarred by the shear annihilation that game was. Though, the fans were pretty classless after the game. I clearly remember being taunted by some 40 something year old men after the game, which was just low because I was 15 years old at the time. What was I gonna do? Fight him?

I didn't attend that game but I've heard come PO time our fans can get unruley! Probably just some "bandwagoners". I never notice b/c I do what I'm supposed to leave the stadium and go to my car. I may cheer a bit and talk about the game w/ a huge smile but that's about it! I hate when ppl decide to become a poor representation of our school. Most ppl that attend the games during regular sason are alumni, students, and parents of the players, cheerleaders, scarlets, etc. Then come PO time ppl from all over the community by tickets.

ive been to NS before for a basketball tournament and i like NS, they have good fans and a good team

How true. You spend all year supporting and keeping up with your team and a few other teams, and then come po time, the bws worry you to death over schedules and locations. That's usually about the time that opponents posters begin to complain about your fans. But, in reality, everyone wants to win and hates to lose. So you're gonna see a group of elated fans celebrating their victory, especially if they get over a hump. There are gonna be some that cross the line. Every teams has them and they are usually the only ones that get noticed.

2 reasons people hate successful teams......... It sucks to lose and when you get beat year in year out by NS it pisses people off....... NS rapes the entire district and people hate that...... The 2nd reason people hate NS is when they win they win big and people cry on here when you get beat by a large score.......... Dont worry about all the haters............ We all have them...

Amen to that I know we touched on this subject in one of the other threads related to North Shore. Unruly fans are just another part of the high school football experience. Every school has them and nine times out of ten they end up making the true fans of that school looks bad. As you said when your team wins you can't help but celebrate and when they lose you can't help but wanted to hang your head especially when the game is a slaughter. When we beat Westlake that year I'm sure some fans let their enthusiam get the better of them as we had just clenched a birth in our first state title game. As I've said if you want to see the real fan base of any team then go to a regular season game early in the season. If you wait till week eight to go and scout a team then your going to encounter a many a bandwagoner as that's about the of the season that they slowly start to jump on the ride. As was said with success comes hatred when you win year in and year out some tend to look for anything they can to try and knock you down or discredit you for your accomplishments. Believe I still remember the times when people said North Shore who? Now everyone knows who we are and what we have done some are proud of us and wish that one day their program will reach the level we have just as we looked to the Jusdon's and the Katy when they were winning titles while we were slowly putting our factory together.

[pearlandfan]

Any1 who says NS didnt deserve to be there is seriously mistaken. NS has a great program year in and year out. They have a very strong D and a descent offense but they just werent the same after PAS MEM game. They deserved to be there. they are a great team

Yeah that's when I think ppl started picking up on Chris as being our big playmaker! His stats when way down after that game! But all in all he still a fantastic RB and he has the grades to back it up!

[nsmustang]

Do you really REALLY want me to get into this? Because I have a lot to say about it........


Lets start with Galena Park ISD. You have NSHS, who is the golden child of the district. Nice new neighborhoods with big houses and tax revenues. Then you have GPHS, who is the step child that gets the shaft at everything. North Shore gets additions to make their school bigger, and GPHS gets the boundries redrawn to send more kids to North Shore.

Now, go ahead and respond about GP being landlocked and there isn't anything to can do about it... I'm listening. Now, ask Katy ISD what they did with the Mayde Creek campus and then come to me with that excuse.

Then there is their forever going on and on about how it's such a wonderful school district, they're exemplary (or were, until TAKS), yada yada yada. Wow, anyone can teach a kid to take a test just so the district looks good! Exposed with TAKS, though....

Then there is the whole being supported by La Porte ISD's Robin Hood money. Granted, they is nothing anyone can do about that, I still don't like the whole scheme. That's a whole other topic that I'll stay away from, though. Unless people really want my to disect Texas school funding, because I can and will.

And there, of course, there is North Shore High School itself. Well, being a Deer Park grad, you sorta get a bad taste in your mouth after seeing 3 overtime losses while going to school at Deer Park. This is probably where most of the animosity comes from, really.

And then there was the 2003 season. I remember sitting in the Alamodome with Westlake fans watching the Chaps get torn apart by North Shore. Then, after the game was over I remember how the North Shore fans treated the Westlake fans. It was the most terrible thing I've seen. Holding their "state bound" signs in Westlake fan's faces, and pointing and laughing. They have to have been the most ungraceful winners I have ever seen in my life. Probably because they had never been there before, and those people probably didn't know how to act.

Then there is the whole.. there is nothing unique about North Shore. The colors are red, the mascot is a mustang, and the fight song is pretty just ordinary. So, they don't earn any points in my book there like Churchill or Hays does.

But anyway, you asked and I told.

You are right - he did ask you but you are wrong about some things. You were not there all the years NS had to put up being the red haired stepchild of Galena Park. It was "GP this and GP that, GP went to state twice etcetc etc" NS had to use the old locker room under the seats at Dement for years.
There is still a faction that has dislike for NS and fought against a new stadium to be built in NS instead of GP. The jealousy is still there so I won't listen to how bad GP has it over NS. Never heard about boundries being redrawn. Where do you get your info? As for Taas scores, GPISD is a predominantly minority district and to get an exemplary rating with those demographics is phenomenal. You can't just teach a kid to take a test so the district looks good. Every school has to be at least satisfactory and most exemplary to get that rating. But thanks for your assessment...:)

You're exactly right. The boundaries are not being redrawn. Galena Park has no room or desire for new development. While there are several subdivisions going up around here. Why do you think Channelview became 5a, and CEKing is soon to follow in the next couple of years. GP is still at the same numbers they were 1980.

The main part of the schedule that people hate on is the part that NS can't control. Yes, they play in a horri district, but what can they do? The UIL puts them in there and they play the games.

I don't think there's really anything that North Shore does that makes people get mad at them. Like has been said, it's pretty much the fact that others rank them high and tell everyone that North shore is a team that needs to be watched out for...

It's kinda like A&M in the SWC in the late 80's early to mid 90's. They kept getting ranked up high. They would blow through the crappy SWC, then get the tar beat out of them in the bowl games or maybe even slip up and lose a conference game they shouldn't. Texas was basically the same way pre-2005, just so Aggies don't think I'm picking on them. Texas would be ranked highly. This is the year, they got it all this year, all those star players are going to come through. Then, inevitably they would lose one or two and people would complain at how overrated they are every year. Like it's Texas' fault.

Think back to Florida State before they finally broke through. Think back to Nebraska. Always ranked high, Osborne can';t win the big one.

You're just naturally going to draw some heat if you're constantly ranked high and then constantly get eliminated before your ranking would say you should. Just be happy that North Shore has good teams every year to be ranked that high in the first place.
I think panamamyers hit the nail on the head. People see 60-0 in the regular season combined with several second round exits (albeit to very good teams) and, not knowing any better, they throw out the 'overrated' stuff and they get tired of seeing you continuing to be ranked above their teams.

I had the pleasure of meeting several members of the NS coaching staff the spring before the '03 season and I'll always have a great deal of respect for da 'Sho after how well I was treated. Coach Aymond and his staff are all class.

What are you guys gonna do without Chris Ganious?:eek: It sucks NS had to exit early, but they still had a good season.

[okt0ber]

You are right - he did ask you but you are wrong about some things. You were not there all the years NS had to put up being the red haired stepchild of Galena Park. It was "GP this and GP that, GP went to state twice etcetc etc" NS had to use the old locker room under the seats at Dement for years.
There is still a faction that has dislike for NS and fought against a new stadium to be built in NS instead of GP. The jealousy is still there so I won't listen to how bad GP has it over NS. Never heard about boundries being redrawn. Where do you get your info? As for Taas scores, GPISD is a predominantly minority district and to get an exemplary rating with those demographics is phenomenal. You can't just teach a kid to take a test so the district looks good. Every school has to be at least satisfactory and most exemplary to get that rating. But thanks for your assessment...:)


It's called teaching to the test. Ask Pasadena ISD about it, too. I'm not saying it's completely illigitimate, I'm just saying the touted it for more than what it was.

Why is it GPISD consistently has some of the lowest ACT and SAT scores in the area? They advertised that exemplary rating like crazy, because they were trying to shed the stigma of being a "bad" school district. Now, don't misunderstand what I'm saying here, though. I'm not trying to imply GPISD has the worst academics in the area. They're NOT the worst. But, they aren't what the school district claims they were back then, it's just being bitter about false advertising.

Deaundre Jones will soon step in and be another tremendous RB! That's more than likely what will happen! That kid is FAST! I'd even bet to say he's faster than Chris, he just has to learn to find the holes like Chris!

I dunno anything about the test scores b/c I don't keep up w/ all that. I just be the best I can be in school and do what I need to do to get to the next level!I'll let u know right now that I'm not 1 of those kids.
I will say that the classes seem to be getting worse and they seem to be less disciplined as the yrs. go by. I think the staff @ NSSH is gonna have their hands full in a few more yrs.

[lonny23]

As a NS supporter a question has been going through my mind ever since I joined this board. What do ppl have against us??? IT seems like SOME ppl alwayz have something negative 2 say. YEAH we lost but there's no since in kicking a dog once it's already down! So what if ppl choose to rank us #4, #3, #7! We don't have control over that! We just get out there and play the games. We take all this crap about us being overrated, our weak district, and so on and so on. Just to let yall know we get tired of hearing about things we have no control over! We don't pick our rankings. Do u think we wanna play in a weak district? I mean don't get me wrong the 60-0 is nice, but I'd rather be more prepared for the POs. I'd rather go the whole season unranked and unpraised if it would mean that we could stop hearing all these negative things. Even today as soon a LP lost some ppl were quick to say they were overrated. NS isn't gonna start losing just b/c we think the other ppl in our weak district (no offense guys) deserve a chance, that's not our job. I know most of the fans try not to get on here and sound cocky and 4give me if I do but I just get tired of the BS. In another thread somebody else said we didn't even deserve to be playing Pearland yesterday:confused: :rolleyes:. All NS does is practice and show up and do our best (well sometimes). Can we catch a break! I know not every1 talks down on us and forgive me if u don't, but man our boys work hard just like every other team and where ever their success and har work gets them (or not) so be it!
I'll weigh in on this one. I haven't been a big fan of some of your posters in the past, but they get more palatable as the playoff losses build and the further we get away from 2003. Put me in the crowd that doesn't like your high rankings all year every year, the undefeated records, and the 2nd round exits. You're right that you don't pick your rank, but you've got to expect some of us to be upset about a team that continuously does less than most experts predict every year. We're talking about a team that gets talked about as a state title contender almost every year and yet they've only won Region 3 twice since Aymond resurrected the program. Some of us just look at North Shore info as "The Boy That Cried Wolf." We're just sitting back and wondering when you'll actually play up to expectations. I'm not in North Shore going to the games, so I can't say what's wrong. All I know is that whatever the experts see to rank you high every year doesn't materialize into a playoff run.

That in a nutshell is a big part of the North Shore hate. Another big part is the continuous degrading of Region 4 by Houston. North Shore posters and the rest of Houston like to talk about how they're going to beat Region 4 and then most of those teams never get that far. When Region 3 has played Region 4 since the 2 division split, R4 has had a winning record. You can expect some hate when you have people bashing your home teams that they don't even beat the majority of the time.

NSStangs Fan,

I, as a Westfield follower, can tell you the great dislike that the WF fans and the players have for NS. My son who has since graduated from WF and moved on was a member of the 2004 WF team. The arrogance and cockiness that those NS players showed the week prior to the NS/WF 1st playoff game was unbelievable. I mean, these NS kids showed up at WF's playoff game behind WF's bench and were talking smack during the game and out into the parking lot. I could not believe it. And I specifically remember the NS player with the biggest mouth (Clifford Gilliam). I mean how stupid can you be, the smallest SOB on the field who plays RB talking the most smack. Well as Chris Mitchell, curent Uof H linebacker put it coming off the field after that playoff game, I'm gonna take his Fuc*&% head off (Clifford Gilliam). Also everyone who has attended a NS game has seen how they take the field by walking onto it. Well after the 1st WF playoff game they didn't have to walk off because they got ran out of the stadium. Also, before the 1st playoff game my son (Who was a captain) told me that Dajleon Farr told the WF players at the coin flip that "It's over for you *******". And I believe my son. My son told me that they informed the rest of the team and that every shot they took on the NS players was a kill shot. My son also told me that after the game he asked Farr, you not gonna shake my hand man" and Farr refused. To make matters worse, the NS parents and fans at the game were (some not all) were talking more than smack as if we (parents) could influence the outcome of the game. This coupled with the constant pre-season high rankings is another reason.

This may clear up some of that. I've never heard anyone from GPISD bragging on Sat's. In fact, the last 2 years there has been a movement in the district to improve those scores. The school board, knowing the SAT's were not good, made that a priority when Dr Henry took over the helm. All the bragging was about the Exemplary status. An achievement no other minority distict that size in the state could lay claim to.

Sorry to hear that. A lot of that comes from the unsportsmanlike conduct the Westfield players and coaches had against NS in that 03 scrimmage.
That left a bad taste in NS's mouth that year. And here I was, getting ready to be a WF supporter thru the playoffs:D

Lonny you said it better than I could. Good analysis. I hate NS getting a high rating at the season start and going out in the 2nd round. You're led to think there is a real shot at going deep and phhtt! It's over. It's become a standard now. So what do you do? What do you do when Judson doesn't make the playoffs?

Lonny, you're right on this one. But, if you go back and look at the posts of the 5 or 6 of our primary posters on this board, I don't think you'll find where we said we were definitely gonna beat anyone. You're right, we begin the year with high expectations, maybe too high. Maybe all we are is a 2nd round team. I think people are looking at the players we have and combining that with the '03 title and talking us up a bit. With that being said, You and I both know, there a couple programs that have been underachievers under those same circumstances the last couple of years.

[okt0ber]

Good, glad they've figured it out. That exemplary status didn't do squat to get kids into college and make them successful.

Neely is a wonderful woman, but she's in love with standardized testing.

I'm sorry this happened to WF. I will say that any team @ any given time can be cocky especially coming off a state championship and another undefeated season. Had Aymond or sny of the other coaching staff found out those boys would've been in some serious trouble.

The comment I put in bold is the only one I find a little questionable. I'd take that w/ a grain of salt. I can't see any NS player saying that or making any other racial slur (especially toward the African American race) to another team seeing that a majority of the team is and has been black for a while now. But I guess I'd believe my son as well.

This is very true and it's not like ppl from Region 4 don't take shots @ us. This yr. I don't think "We're definitly gonna beat them" came out of anyone's mouth, b/c ANY team can be beaten. As for the rank thing like I said b4 we have no control over that. NS fans will talk about state, what decent team's fans don't?! I heard many NS posters saying all yr. long that they want the site to rank them lower. I mean if u see us talking about our O and how they might let us down that could be a red flag that maybe we're not as good as every1 thinks. But we don't control their thoughts we just support our team 100% and look forward to a deep PO run b/c that's what fans do!

Another thing about NS fans is if u notice a majority of us will talk about how poorly our team performed b4 we get started on another team. I think the NS fans are hardest on their team than they are any other.

I think after 03' the community and the team got WAY 2 cocky. Its ok to have a swagger, which NS has always had...but after that ring....I dont know, things changed. You better not have said ANYTHING about NS, boy would you get an ear full, or have to fight one of them(back in the highschool days). Earlier in the season I remember a topic where I was swallowed by NS people because I made a few comments about the team. Ive been around NS fans after loosing, yall arent that nice(most).

But, what the coaches and that program have been able to accomplish so far should be all that matters.

Yes I do remember that thread but it was directed toward our 03 team and not this season. If I remember correctly u said 03 team was good but not great. That's all said and done with though. I think we finally agreed to disagree.

Coach Aymond has done wonders 4 the NS program and we hope he'll be w/ us a few more yrs.!

[crawford86]

i dont have anything against North shore actually cuz if i wouldnt have moved to austin when i was little and went to westlake then i woulda been a north shore mustang...both of my parents were...If im not goin for westlake then im goin for north shore

["W"]

in 2003 when north shore beat westlake, i didnt think they did anything that was wrong. they walked through the banner, but if you ask me if your the best team in the nation you can do that. i dont know how the fans were, i wasnt with them. but i cant say anything bad about NS. they are a good football team. and backup anything they do on the field. at least they did in 2003.

I live a stone throw away from GPISD and thus a part of the community you call cocky. On what basis can you say that? People have attacked our program for a long time - why? Successful progams get questioned when something does not quite turn out the way it should have. Lose a game! oh my god - how did that happen? Ask SLC, Lufkin, even Converse and Katy people - they get attacked by others that don't know anything about the program other than it is a winning program.

I have never seen NS posters get on here and get cocky. When NS gets attacked. We respond. If we response in a cocky way - so be it - there is nothing wrong with that - it's called defending ourselves.

The community is not cocky. Yes - we want NS to win every game. Every fan wants their team to win the championship every year. Ain't gonna happen. I'll take what we got going at NS every day over any other program.

The best thing about NS is on Friday nights it becomes a small town in it's own world. After every game a lot of the students gather @ I HOP and eat, chill and talk about the game! It's great b/c they alwayz expect the NS crowd on Fridays after games! U can't go a whole meal w/o some1 walking in who didn't get to attend the game and asking about it. I know after the Lee game ppl were asking about the score and what not. Lots were surprised to hear about the double OT. But it's just a nice small town feeling that this team generates. The community supports this team and I don't find them too cocky either! Every team has their set of "Bandwagon" fans.
I know after we left the Pearland game we ran into some fans but I didn't hear many if any words @ all exchanged and well there were parts of that game that were debatable but the fans went to their cars w/o saying much except to each other. Even when we came in we had a nice conversation w/ some ppl from Pearland about the Astrodome. Now I did hear that some Pearland trainers and/or players were being rude to our trainers and even though I heard that directly from a trainer, I'll take it w/ a grain of salt. A lot of time hard faught losses bring hard thought stories. Please note I'm not saying that any of these post game stories are false. They all could very well be true.

I personally never see the post game NS attiutdes 1 b/c I just go to my car and don't hang around, 2 b/c well I'm not on the recieving end, 3 I don' associate myself w/ those type of fans. I'm sorry to any1 who has been on the recieving end though.

Look at the brackets and see who I'll root for and against. I just like football and really get more benefit out of the local teams doing good than Judson because I see these guys more. Judson just gives me a reason to brag around here. As much as I enjoy getting to see Judson play occasionally now, not being at every game saves me the frustration of not seeing what I once saw in that team. In many ways, Judson stopped being Judson after I had to move to Wichita Falls.

[lonny23]

Lonny, you're right on this one. But, if you go back and look at the posts of the 5 or 6 of our primary posters on this board, I don't think you'll find where we said we were definitely gonna beat anyone. You're right, we begin the year with high expectations, maybe too high. Maybe all we are is a 2nd round team. I think people are looking at the players we have and combining that with the '03 title and talking us up a bit. With that being said, You and I both know, there a couple programs that have been underachievers under those same circumstances the last couple of years.
Judson almost underachieved the last 2 years. SV did this year. LP sure did.

[lonny23]

I'm sorry this happened to WF. I will say that any team @ any given time can be cocky especially coming off a state championship and another undefeated season. Had Aymond or sny of the other coaching staff found out those boys would've been in some serious trouble.

The comment I put in bold is the only one I find a little questionable. I'd take that w/ a grain of salt. I can't see any NS player saying that or making any other racial slur (especially toward the African American race) to another team seeing that a majority of the team is and has been black for a while now. But I guess I'd believe my son as well.
I can think of another 7-letter word and that's the one I thought he was saying and it's usually reserved for women.

[lonny23]

This is very true and it's not like ppl from Region 4 don't take shots @ us. This yr. I don't think "We're definitly gonna beat them" came out of anyone's mouth, b/c ANY team can be beaten. As for the rank thing like I said b4 we have no control over that. NS fans will talk about state, what decent team's fans don't?! I heard many NS posters saying all yr. long that they want the site to rank them lower. I mean if u see us talking about our O and how they might let us down that could be a red flag that maybe we're not as good as every1 thinks. But we don't control their thoughts we just support our team 100% and look forward to a deep PO run b/c that's what fans do!

Another thing about NS fans is if u notice a majority of us will talk about how poorly our team performed b4 we get started on another team. I think the NS fans are hardest on their team than they are any other.
Region 4 has definitely said things. It's been a big game of tit-for-tat between Region 3 and 4 ever since I joined this board. Region 1 and 2 never argue like we do and that's because DFW has a big presence in both Regions. The city warfare between SA and HOU has to play some part in the comments of some, but I've always just focused on the football stuff between the 2 cities.

[lonny23]

I think after 03' the community and the team got WAY 2 cocky. Its ok to have a swagger, which NS has always had...but after that ring....I dont know, things changed. You better not have said ANYTHING about NS, boy would you get an ear full, or have to fight one of them(back in the highschool days). Earlier in the season I remember a topic where I was swallowed by NS people because I made a few comments about the team. Ive been around NS fans after loosing, yall arent that nice(most).

But, what the coaches and that program have been able to accomplish so far should be all that matters.
Yeah, I got off on the wrong foot with these guys in 2004 and didn't really talk to them in 2003. I said things I shouldn't have said. They reacted to me the wrong way. It's better now, but still not where it needs to be.

[Big Daddy Cool]

Also everyone who has attended a NS game has seen how they take the field by walking onto it.

And they do that against anyone and everyone. That wasn't just something they did that day as a way of trying to show anyone up. That's they way they've taken the field for as long as I can remeber. Some team go running on to the field and sprint all the way to the endzone. North Shore walks on to the field and meets at about the 50 have their team huddle and then seperate into their groups and get ready to go.

[ruffshod]

Judson almost underachieved the last 2 years. SV did this year. LP sure did.
I wasn't going to call out any names, but you hit on a few programs right there. We all begin the season believing our teams' have a shot at the title. It doesn't always work out that way.

[ruffshod]

I'm with you. We've were highly skeptical of the O's ability to play consistently game in and game out.

[tailgater]

I'm with you. We've were highly skeptical of the O's ability to play consistently game in and game out.

You're right. If you go back and read all the post from NS fans - especially those of us that attended all or most all of the games - questioned the consistency of the offense. I really believe Fizer needed one more year to master the offense's option and passing game. I think that would have made a big difference. McGinty will be a Sr. next year. He is a good passer but will he have the receivers and will he be able to run the option?

That's the big question for NS in 07.

I agree. He went from 3rd string to first in 1 yr. That's a lot of responsiblity.

As far as recievers go Tolbert, 1 of the best if not the best WR, will be returning and #7 his name slips my mind. I think #7 would be good if he were more agressive. He's the 1 who's pass got intercepted friday. It made no sense he was taller than his defender. He could've easily reached out 4 that pass had he been more agressive. Hopefully they work on that w/ him. I have a feeling NS may drop off 4 a yr. or 2. U know not be as good as they have been, but the fish A team was undefeated this yr. and from what I hear they r some BIG boys! There is still hope!

[PantherStang84]

Once upon a time not so long ago in GPISD there was a school called North Shore filled with kids with lots of heart and pride. The students there were proud of their school despite being relegated to 2nd class status within GPISD. Yes during this time it was Galena Park HS that was the pride of the little ISD on Green's Bayou.

For GP had all the facilities of the district. The nice gym, the 50 yr. old football stadium right behind the school. GP football players and band members didn't need police escorts to good old Dement Field.

Back in those days the majority of the tax base was in Woodforest, Woodforest North, and Sterling Green but the money went to the other side of I-10.

During those days the proud students could in no way be perceived as competitive in any sport they played with water polo and baseball being the exception. But these kids represented their school with pride despite being spit on by the students of Baytown, Pasadena and yes good old DP.

Now times have changed. It is now NS that is the pride of the little ISD. NS now has the facilities for all to see. The football team is competitive and is now the victor over Baytown, Pasadena and yes good old DP.

The students still play with pride like their parents did before. In their own way, the parents of today's NS students paved the way to North Shore's successes.


To Mr. DP grad,

The above is a true story. Don't believe me? Ask anyone who lived in Deer Park, Pasadena, or Baytown about 20 yrs. ago. Yes I was one of the kids that got spit on trying to get on the bus after the games.

NS was the joke of the district, now they are the king.

Deer Park used to be king of the hill on both sides of the Ship Channel. North Shore knocked them off and took it away. You want to be king again? Come and take it back.

i honestly believe they'll be about the same. Aymond does a good job of playing underclassmen, so there is continuity year to year. The bigger question is, will a big tailback emerge? If the answer is no, then the passing game is gonna need lots of attention. While Those smaller backs are great, they're not built for consistent between the tackle running. As we notice this time of year, you need to have at least 2 facets to your offense. Most playoff teams have adequate speed sideline to sideline.

Man when people start trashing my school, the Mustang in me starts coming out.

[NSStangs#1fan]

How quickly they forget.
I agree 100% the sad thing I wan't even ALIVE 20 yrs. ago and I know the history. I know how NS was treated and how they used to be the red headed stepchild of GPISD.

Don't 4get the upcoming RB Deaundre Jones who was kinda overshadowed by Chris this yr. He's just a soph. but boy does he have speed. Once he learns to find the holes like Chris he'll be 1 hell of an RB. I heard that there's another fierce RB that was on JV but there were so many ppl in front of him that he couldn't get moved up! Tolbert is also a great RB so I dunno if he'll be playing both or they'll just keep him @ WR like they did this yr.

Another reason I think the passing game was lacking this yr. is b/c we lost 7 count em 7 recievers last yr. and I think only 2 had varsity experience.

I have lived in Woodforest for exactly 20 yrs. My kids went to NS Elementry, NS Middle, NS high, and NS Sr. High. So we are full blooded NS citizens. I got interested in NS Football when my kids became involved in school activities. That's mostly how most people get hooked. I lived and experienced what you just wrote for about 2 yrs. Going to Dement Field to see the games. And I alway thought it wasn't fair for us to travel all that way for a home game. But I didn't understand why I felt that way. Well, when GPISD got build - practically in by backyard. Well I was elated. Heard complaints from GP people. All I can tell them - What goes around - goes around. And I only experienced the lowly child syndrome for 2 yrs. I can just imagine the grief you guys took all those years.

I am glad that we have been given the opportunity to see what use to be considered a down and out 3rd rate program rise up from the ashes and always mentioned as one of the top progams in the state. Now peope need to read your post and now comprehend why we hold that 03 championship so dear and why we will always cherish it. But dang it -as Oliver twist would say - can we have another.

I think 1 is on it's way un the next few yrs. Some of those freshman boys are as big as the Sr. football players. They're gonna be beasts. They were undefeated this yr. and hopefully they can keep it up!

[Northshore Stang Parent06]

It really doesn't matter who we schedule in the non district people will still find something to complain about against NS.It seems like no matter what north shore does we are always hated on because of our district schedule.
What about some of the other teams around the state that have weak district schedules why don't someone say something about them.I am very sure that if you do a little research north shore isn't the only one that has this problem.

[NSMustangProud]

NSStangs#1 Fan,
First of all let me tell you that I have always admired how you have posted on here with dignity and respect. It goes to show you that not all NS fans are cocky, rude, and/or whatever else we get called. I just began coming on here a couple of weeks ago and reading posts and seeing what this site was all about. Never in a million years did I think I would ever join or even more... post something; however, when I saw some of the things that people were saying about my district it really bothered me. I had the respect however to send a private email to the one who really annoyed me instead of "bashing" on the post. I am a 1978 graduate of North Shore High School, lived on Woodforest Blvd. for over 20 years, and I'm a proud graduate who returned to the district to teach where I received a wonderful education. We have many graduates who return to the district to teach and have many employees with over 20 years of service to the district.

In the 70s, I can remember sitting in the drill team each Friday night and being stomped by the teams that we still play in this "WEAK" district. I can remember being beaten one night by LaPorte 72-0 (funny, because now I live in LP and have two kids who are at the high school). In those days, the stadium was on the "Galena Park side" of the district and now it's on the "NS side" of the district. The stadium has caused friction with some but it is Galena Park ISD stadium and we definitely needed a new stadium. I think that is what causes some of the NS hate. Cy-Falls mom summed it up best.....jealousy causes hate. I wouldn't let those that are jealous or those who hate us cause you a sleepless night. Continue to focus on our boys, our next season and the one after that. As an employee, I can tell you we have a great district, great staff who goes way beyond teaching to a test, great kids, and a wonderful football team and coaching staff. We deserved our 2003 state title and that team was perfect. I can't believe anyone would say we didn't deserve that title and I can't believe anyone would say we didn't deserve to be at the playoff game against Pearland last weekend. That's as idiotic as saying we didn't deserve to be an exemplary district a couple of years ago. I felt that very insulting as a teacher who works very hard for the kids in our district. The one person who seems to know so much about our district and doesn't even live in the district should go work for TEA since he knows so much about what we deserve/and don't deserve.

Anyway, continue your posts with dignity and respect as you always have and continue to keep that spirit. Love our boys and support them. I had a college professor last year who is also an official and he told me one night after class that the NS team was one of the most respectable and polite teams he had ever been an official for. There are "bad" fans everywhere so I think we are getting shortchanged on some of the comments posted on here regarding fans. We have an awesome community and we have wonderful Friday nights so continue to look forward and remember what we have coming up from the middle school. Let's invite those who hate us to IHOP on Friday night and show what a great community and fan support we have. We'll be back!!

[nsmustang]

While looking over a stat that WOS87 put out a while back, it showed the district winners of the last 50 years. Interesting regarding NS in that they first came thru in 95 and 96 but then had a couple off years from 97-2000
where they did not win the district. Then 01-06 they won it every year. In 01 they really started powering up to 03. My assessment is that we are in the "off years" right now even though we are still winning the district. We are going 2 deep in the playoff run and then out. I look for another power build up to occur within 2-3 years before NS goes deeper. NS has talent brewing down in the ranks right now.

And yes, they do walk out with a swagger instead of running, at every game. It makes them a little different than the run of the mill high school.They're the NS Mustangs and they're proud. Some fans on this board would probably like to see their team have that attitude.

Wonderful first post. Northshore is lucky to have fans such as yourself in their midst. You are so correct when you say every team has it's bad fans. They do. Some more than others but I find that people I have met from this board have been the most knowledgable, interesting and nice people you could meet.

As for your stadium - I have been there for a band competition and it is fabulous. Can't wait to go there again tomorrow - this time for a fairly big game:rolleyes:

[CyFallsMom]

Seriously... Did tooplaya just poof after all the noise earlier this year?!?

I was wondering the same thing!! I miss TP:( . He's probably going through mourning but I hope the mourning period is over so he can go to our game tomorrow - it's in his neighborhood. In fact, all you NS fans come on over...you can even sit in my section:D . Last week I loaded my section up with Katy fans so this week, I could just load it up with NS fans!! Bring the Karma!! Just bring ear plugs because I get out of hand on occasion - just ask KTCarl. However, I do have a sore throat so I may be a bit quieter tomorrow:mad:

[Big Daddy Cool]

I am a product of the North Shore school system just like many of the others here are. And I remeber growing hearing all the people laugh and joke about Mustang football. I remeber being in middle school and high school and hearing the Friday night slaughter being announced on Monday morning. It was hard to realyl be proud of your school when there wasn't a whole lot to be proud of. However when Coach Aymond arrived in town you just knew that things were about to change. he brought with him an enthusiam that had been lacking the school for a long time.

He slowly started the rebuilding project and little by little people start to get behind him and the team. Sure there were some bumps and bruises along the way but all great programs goe through them. Now all of those that onced enjoyed seeing North Shore on their scheduel aren't as excited as they were back in those days.

I know Deaundre, his little brother and my son are really good friends. He is most definitely fast, but he also plays really hard for his size. He's also a very likeable young man.

The passing game needs to be addressed most intently this offseason, especially if they're nor gonna groom a big back.

I had a college professor last year who is also an official and he told me one night after class that the NS team was one of the most respectable and polite teams he had ever been an official for. There are "bad" fans everywhere so I think we are getting shortchanged on some of the comments posted on here regarding fans. We have an awesome community and we have wonderful Friday nights so continue to look forward and remember what we have coming up from the middle school. Let's invite those who hate us to IHOP on Friday night and show what a great community and fan support we have. We'll be back!!
First of all, let me say welcome to the board Proud!It's good to get some backup on the oldschool flavor from the boulevard. Remember that? NS has come a long way since the days we were there, and alot people are jealous of that fact. It's people like yourself that strengthens the community atmosphere in the area. And, with more people like #1 Fan, it will continue. PantherStang 84 and I have known each other since the 6th grade, and there's one thing that everyone on this board knows about us. WE LOVE NORTH SHORE FOOTBALL! Hopefully we'll make some noise in '07.

It is pretty evident that the NS faithful/alum/present students all have pride in their school. And getting that proud feeling stems from all facets of the school. Teachers, students, all the different programs. But there is one that stands out. That is the Football program. Whether you like it or not - the FB program and it's success permeates into each one of us and instills pride in the school and community.

I am not a NS alum, but I went thru the system vicariously thru my kids. They are alums and I will always have an emotional attachment to the school and the FB program. And beside I do pay GPISD taxes.

I look forward to next year and see what happens. All I know - is it will be fun. It always is.

On another note: As the other posters have mentioned and will verify, NS always regardless of who or where they are playing - walk onto the field. It save energy.

NSStangs#1 Fan,
First of all let me tell you that I have always admired how you have posted on here with dignity and respect. It goes to show you that not all NS fans are cocky, rude, and/or whatever else we get called. I just began coming on here a couple of weeks ago and reading posts and seeing what this site was all about. Never in a million years did I think I would ever join or even more... post something; however, when I saw some of the things that people were saying about my district it really bothered me. I had the respect however to send a private email to the one who really annoyed me instead of "bashing" on the post. I am a 1978 graduate of North Shore High School, lived on Woodforest Blvd. for over 20 years, and I'm a proud graduate who returned to the district to teach where I received a wonderful education. We have many graduates who return to the district to teach and have many employees with over 20 years of service to the district.

In the 70s, I can remember sitting in the drill team each Friday night and being stomped by the teams that we still play in this "WEAK" district. I can remember being beaten one night by LaPorte 72-0 (funny, because now I live in LP and have two kids who are at the high school). In those days, the stadium was on the "Galena Park side" of the district and now it's on the "NS side" of the district. The stadium has caused friction with some but it is Galena Park ISD stadium and we definitely needed a new stadium. I think that is what causes some of the NS hate. Cy-Falls mom summed it up best.....jealousy causes hate. I wouldn't let those that are jealous or those who hate us cause you a sleepless night. Continue to focus on our boys, our next season and the one after that. As an employee, I can tell you we have a great district, great staff who goes way beyond teaching to a test, great kids, and a wonderful football team and coaching staff. We deserved our 2003 state title and that team was perfect. I can't believe anyone would say we didn't deserve that title and I can't believe anyone would say we didn't deserve to be at the playoff game against Pearland last weekend. That's as idiotic as saying we didn't deserve to be an exemplary district a couple of years ago. I felt that very insulting as a teacher who works very hard for the kids in our district. The one person who seems to know so much about our district and doesn't even live in the district should go work for TEA since he knows so much about what we deserve/and don't deserve.

Anyway, continue your posts with dignity and respect as you always have and continue to keep that spirit. Love our boys and support them. I had a college professor last year who is also an official and he told me one night after class that the NS team was one of the most respectable and polite teams he had ever been an official for.

Thanx man I learned from the best of NS posters!
We do have some awsome fans and an awesome community. Even if I had the opportunity I wouldn't move to SLC not for all the state championships they have. The fact that we have 1 makes that special and I like to think another is well on it's way!

That is soooo true. For those of u that don't know EVERY game when they come out of the locker room they touch the top of the door frame (I only see this @ home games guess it's a superstition(sp?)) then they either jog or walk through the run through. If u get lucky they might run, but tailgater is right id does save energy. Then they form this little huddle sometimes they'll chant but they always start rocking. After the pledge if we're kicking off the band plays the SAME song and the ones on the sideline dance! I remember last yr. when the kickoff team usedt to dance too! I saw them attempt 1 game this yr. but it just didn't work out.

I think them walking out on the field is a little intimidating. It says we don't need a big entrace b/c ppl already know who we are. Yes it's cocky, but they're high school boys.

[NSMustangProud]

Well now I am so glad I posted. I've enjoyed just watching these last few weeks. I was so nervous the whole week of the Pearland game and when I'd get that way I'd come look on the board and get my NS spirit going. I wear my NS shirt faithfully on Friday even though I'm on the GP side of the district but my campus accepts it now and they don't hassle me too much. LaPorte doesn't care too much for me when I come into the donut shop on Friday morning but I'm pretty good at supporting the Bulldogs for the sake of my children as well. You know, as I have been reading the posts.....do you think it really be that fun and exciting winning a state championship each year? I don't think it would actually. I actually find it more exciting to build up to it and not take it for granted. Maybe that is why we treasure our '03 title so much. Well, I wish our boys were playing tomorrow but that's okay. We should take some of our spirit and go sit with Cy-Falls mom and help her yell since she has no voice. I'm anxious to see who wins that Pearland game and after seeing a LaPorte boy hurt last week due to unsportsmanship conduct, I'd like to see that Katy game. Good luck Cy-Falls mom and all you NS posters keep your chins up. Not far to go until 100 and 0.

I will be at GPISD tomorrow and sit on the CyFalls side. I am pulling for Pearland. Hey - they beat us fair and square. Any team that beats my beloved team earns my respect and support. that's why I went to San Antonio to see Westfield vs. Tyler Lee 2 yrs ago. Being a HS football fanatic - I am planning to attend the championship games in SA regardless of who is playing. I just hope it is Pearland (D1) and CyFalls (D2).

I haven't decided if I'm going to SA or not just yet. But I do plan on attending as many games as I can. Today I'm going the 4a route, gonna check out Yates vs. LaMarque. Should be a good one. Next weekend, I'll be in Dallas to see the Cowboys. So I might go on Sat and check out a couple teams up there.

[NSMustangProud]

Well I am going to sit at home and decorate the tree, bake some cookies and pull It's My Life off the dusty shelf and read about my Mustangs 2003 team (great book) while treating my withdrawal symptoms of no more NS games for a while. Enjoy the games and the beautiful weather.

I know I'd like to c PL vs CF but I want CF to come out. I guess u could say the FTBall players @ skool have an influence on me. They came in monday mad about how they performed (@ least they knew), mad b/c they said that Proctor stepped out of bounds on that long run, mad @ of some of the coaches calls and some pretty much said that they didn't want Pearland OR WF to win. Maybe that's anger talking but who knows. I really feel bad 4 the Srs. I know how bad they wanted to be there after getting knocked out 2 yrs. in a row. Hopefully they'll kill it next yr.

[NSMustangProud]

We have a book???
Yep, it's called It's My Life (Inside the Locker Room of North Shore High School-The Greatest Team in Texas High School Football History). It is by Matt Malatesta and the forward is by MK Bower. It's a great book and it gives alot of history of the GP communities, but it's about the 2003 team. Great book and fun to read.

If you go to the Cinco vs. Pearland thread you can see the pic of him out of bounds. I just saw it a few minutes ago. I had heard something about it but thought it was just disappointed fans talking but go look at the pic.

Awesomeness! I'm gonna have to find it! Maybe it'll be a movie some day.

[North Shore Mustang]

and lets just sit here and nit pick everything thats wrong with a school that your envious of because they beat you 3 years in a row.. like your school is perfect

Thank you!

[NSStangs#1fan]

There are gonna be some very unhappy Mustangs on Monday. I can hear it now. I think next game, if it's not @ Reliant, PL might see a touch of scarlet on the CF side.

This is news to me. But it's water under the bridge. The book is an excellent read. C'omn Fan, how could you miss that one?

You are probably right. I was thinking the same thing earlier.

Yeah, that rubs salt in the wounds, but it's a day late and a dollar short. So let's just focus on next year. aymond shouldn't have called that timeout.;)

[NSStangs#1fan]

I just hope Aymond comes back next yr. I know he's had some trouble w/ some parents this yr. Oh yeah and in the paper he said he called it hoping PL would bring out their kicker! ?He seemed really disappointed. I know he had high hopes 4 this team, 2003 kinda hopes.

[NSStangs#1fan]

About next yr. It'll be interesting to c which the new Sophomores that get moved up! The fish team was undefeated and the offense looks like it should be there. @ least I got a taste of state my fish yr.!

[NSStangs#1fan]

This is news to me. But it's water under the bridge. The book is an excellent read. C'omn Fan, how could you miss that one?
ME TOO! When I was watching FNL and hearing about all these other FTBall movies and I asked my mom how come no 1 ever tells our story?! Well it's good to hear some1 has! Assuming it's as good as yall say I'm gonna put in a call to Universal or Disney & Jerry Bruckheimer and tell them to pick this 1 up!:D

[Big Daddy Cool]

I've read the book and have to say that its a must read for any Mustang fan. Of course I prefer popping in my dvd of the title game and watching it again and again. I still love watching Courtney Lane rocking Danny Amandola's world on that one play.

[NSMustangProud]

ME TOO! When I was watching FNL and hearing about all these other FTBall movies and I asked my mom how come no 1 ever tells our story?! Well it's good to hear some1 has!

Read this book first and you might see you don't want a movie. You will see what I mean when you read Chapter 6.

My dad said the story was kind of sad. I think the boys really had high hopes to go far and when they didn't I think Coach felt bad for his boys. Disappointment stinks but we have to keep our faith and spirit alive.

[NSStangs#1fan]

GRREEEEEAAAAT Now I've got a cliff hanger! I already told my mom I wanted it for Christmas.I never in my life thought I would ask for a book for Christmas! HA! I remember in like the 6th or 7th grade my aunt gave me the 1st 3 of the Harry Potter series and I was so disappointed. I finished all three b4 the next Christmas!

[NSStangs#1fan]

My dad said the story was kind of sad. I think the boys really had high hopes to go far and when they didn't I think Coach felt bad for his boys. Disappointment stinks but we have to keep our faith and spirit alive.
What the Chronicle story?

When I read it, it was almost like I could hear it from a coaches standpoint and the disappointment in his voice. I know they wanted to make it to state more than anything. They even had a myspace dedicated to it, but they fell short. I think what hurts the most is they lost to PL, a team they would probably beat 8 out of 10 times this just happened to be 1 of those 2.

[NSStangs#1fan]

Is it just me or does it seem the Pearland bandwagon fans r coming out in full force!

There are a couple that have been around all season. But now they're coming out of the woodworks. Where have y'all been? Fri morning, at the office, I had to rehash the game all over again. My coworkers' had been waiting a long time to stick their chests out. I let 'em get their shots in.

Well I attempted to join about 2 weeks ago before the Shore game but one of the KT's said I had a questionable user name. I came up with a new one but it still took forever for them to allow me to post.

Be careful Pearland SHSU....don't get too proud because this season isn't over with yet. Don't start knocking fans and and teams who aren't still in the running. I know ya'll are like kids in a candy store right now because you beat NS by a touchdown but beeeeeee careful!

[NSStangs#1fan]

I didn't know the Cinco fans had been talking trash about us...and here I was pulling for them Saturday.
Well there was about 2 inparticular that were really starting to get to me so after that I started pulling 4 PL. I guess I shouldn't judge the entire fan base on 2 ppl, but they r the ones that provoked this thread.

I haven't really noticed any NS fans on here that are ugly. There really isn't too many and most of the time everyone is talking about the next season. When I got on here I was impressed with all the NS people and how they conducted theirselves. Have you noticed anyone ducking and hiding because Pearland won? I don't want to get on here and get snotty because that's when you end up losing..haha.

This is the first time I have ever registered on any football message board... I follow HS football from June to January every year. I have nothing to hide from. Why don't you tell us all where TooPlaya is???

Too Playa is watching video of the 2003 Champions season for NorthShore and remembering the good days.

Im just joking too Playa come back in here and tell us who you think is going to win between Cyfair/superman vs Pearland.

I agree on this. Next thing you know, NS will beat Westfield. I figured when PLnd beat NS that would be next. As far as the NS fans on the board, I think most posters would tell you that as soon as your team exits the playoffs you don't have as much to hoot and holler about, so yeah, you lose some steam about it from the sidelines. By the way Pland fans, Fozzy looks like a real class act. Good to see a kid like him come along.

I agree 100%! Fozzy does seem like a great guy.

But anywho I know I don't get on here nearly as much as I used to or read as many posts. Football season is definitly over @ NS and u can alwayz tell when the Sr. FB players come in early from their FB class. Now they just kinda hang around in the Hallway b4 their lunch. I will be on here next semester though to announce the singnees from NS. I'm sure there will be quite a few!

Hey #1 Fan,
I don't know if you will be on here but my dad is wanting to know what the Freshman teams records were this year (NSMS and Cunningham) and also the soph and JV records. Also, how much are these middle school kiddos weighing? He's heard they are pretty hefty boys. He doesn't think the team is going to be very good next year looking at the roster. What do you think?

I guess so. I'm sure Cunningham has about the same. If the discipline can be kept in check, they should be pretty good to go for a few years.

I just hope Aymond doesn't quit on us. I know he had a few problems this yr.

I just hope Aymond doesn't quit on us. I know he had a few problems this yr.
I don't think he will leave this year. I think he's been around long enough where he can handle problems. He's seen just about everything. Once you read the book you will see what I mean. Even after the State Championship, he said he didn't want to become an athletic director, etc. because he likes being with the kids and teaching. I don't think he'll leave us....I sure hope not.

I was talking about the overall discipline of the school. If that's kept in check, the program will be fine. If it's not, their will be a great falloff.

Man I remember when I went through our biggest discipline problem was getting caught chewing gum. We feared our principals, our teachers, and the coaches took care of the boys with a long wooden paddle. They used to pull the boys from the classroom and take care of it in the hall. If you got caught laughing then you got it next. Parents also took care of things when you got home. The school was right regardless and there wasn't a mamma, daddy, or grandparent calling and threatening to call the media because little Jimmy did wrong. I didn't realize there was alot of issues on campus. Times have changed!

I think he's hoping for a state championship w/in the next few yrs. It's gotta sting to be beat 4 3 yrs in a row by a team that has made it to the semis or farther. Especially last yr. and this yr. b/c it was so close, but more so this yr. b/c our team just didn't show up. A least last yr they didn't go down w/o a fight. I bet Ganious is real disappointed b/c he's played on ALL 3 teams, along with a few others. I hope we get somewhere next yr.

[NSStangs#1fan]

Tell me if it's me or not! Ok now when we play TWHS I don't even think of them as the team we played for the title in 03 anymore. It's weird to think the 2 teams never met b4 then esp. since they're both great programs! I know ppl say it's rivalry but I can't dislike them. I root 4 them against any1 else other than us! Is it just me??? I would love to see these 2 teams meet @ the title game again!

It's definitely a game where they both play for blood. Last year's game was sooooooooooo exciting. This year we beat them more than what I thought we would. You know after reading some posts on here it really gets annoying hearing about our weak district. Red Raider on the Pearland post said that NS is confident only because we play in a weak district. His post actually didn't make alot of sense. Do you feel we will have discipline issues that divide us as Ruffshod was talking about? Let's keep believing #1StangFan! I can't wait for you to get your book and read it. You will get fired up and be ready to go again. All of our NS posters have fizzled!

If things were still the way they were when you and I were in school, discipline would not be an issue. But I see things around the community that worry me. With that said, there are a great bunch of kids coming up, so if Aymond stays, they'll be ok for awhile.

[Pearland1]

All I have to say is that Pearland has gotten better because of Northshore We were tired of getting beat every year and I know we will meet again next year in the playoffs.

Red Raider usually says stuff like that about our team... well @ least this yr. I found that funny seeing as he had us down to go to state! I get fired up every time I walk by the trophy case. I alwayz see ppl admiring the 2003 trophy and the big plaque that hangs above. The last class to be @ NS when Reid and the gang brought it home is leaving and I know 4 ME it's weird to think I was actually there when the 03 team made skool history.

I think once TWHS beats us things will get much more exciting especially since we play them in Reg. season which means they would be breaking our streak! Now that PLand has something on us I think next yrs. game will be a little more exciting.

Well I am bored and I'm ready for next year. I am really curious to see if PL will make it all the way. I don't know much about the team they play this week. I know we beat the team in 2003 and they think we have very rude fans. Oh well, who doesn't think that? From all I've read these past few weeks is we are just a overconfident team (like we are the only team who walks on the field), who plays in a weak district and we should not have been in the playoffs and we got lucky to beat Baytown Lee and we should feel priviledged to have played Pearland.....yadayadayada. I've never see the 2003 trophy. I need to look at it next time I come the the SH for meetings. I bet it is beautiful.

Yes, it is beautiful. Now if we can just pair it up.

We will ruffshod...maybe even make triplets out of it. When you came through NS do you remember having the giant pep rally's in the community (they were held in the parking lot that now has HEB in it-on Uvalde)? Do they still do those? Galena Park does a giant pep rally which I think it neat. I came through way before you but thought they might have carried on the tradition.

You're making me feel older than I really am. I was at those, and they were alot of fun. Do you remember when the boulevard was one of the hotspot hangouts in the city? That's about all we had to hang our hats on back then.

Oh yes, the boulevard. I lived right across the street from the big white house between St. Finans and Sevanhampton. Walking to Pizza Hut on Uvalde and going to Woodforest Drugstore were the places to go. The football team used to eat their meals at Woodforest Drugs before the games.They had that nice little restaurant in there. We never won any games but we sure had fun. Those were the days when we ran Thunder, utilized the rounders, celebrated a single touchdown, prayed before we walked up the bleachers at Dement (that they didn't give out), and rivaled with Galena Park. I can remember Thunder being painted black and gold stripes a couple of times. Time flies. I hope all these kids treasure their fun times. Gosh my old age and dementia is setting in. I didn't realize the WF team that beat us so bad in 2004 won the state title that year. I thought they lost out the next week. It seems forever ago. Can't remember yesterday. I guess it's okay if we talk about the good ole' days because we've lost most our posters. We need to let Stangs #1 fan know about our good ole' days anyway.

Remember when Humble Beat you Four years in a row and held you Scoreless all four years.....Then you beat us 6 times in a row for punishment. cause i sure do.

I can date farther than all of you. When I played at NS we held the pep rally in the parking lot of Fingers right at I-10 and Uvalde. The very first Mustang to make all district was Phillip Kaplon in 1965. GP was the big dog until that year and they have'nt really made a comeback since. A trivia note- Woodforest Blvd was called Mainbocher and it extended to Sheldon Rd. Thunder was brand new.....................

I can't remember that far back. The last time we played GP was my junior year, too many fights. But i did hope that they play one time to open the new stadium. And yes, I miss them running Thunder. What's up with these Rounders? Maybe #1 Fan can give us some info.

I remember the Fingers. I remember I was in high school (I think) when Woodforest finally went through to Sheldon because Jack In the Box on Sheldon was a hangout. I was only 6 when Phillip Kaplon made all district.

My parents were both GP grads. They made a promise to me if I made Scarlets then they would root for NS. Well I made it and they had to keep their promise. Before that.....we did not speak in the house during the week of the NS vs GP game. I do remember the fights you speak of. My freshman year, they busted out windows and let in live yellow jackets. I can remember dodging live yellow jackets in Texas History one day.

Sounds like one of the many classic pranks. someone got the Yellowjacket off the side of their building, and it ended up on the gym floor at the pep rally. You can imagine what happened after that. But the administration had reached the end of their rope. It's also apart of the reason for the limited band selection that you presently experience.

[TellMeWeCan't08]

I play for Pearland and I've witnessed and played in some heartbreakers and beatdowns between us. I don't have any beef with ya'll, ya'll are a good team and I wanna see ya'll next year. Same place, same results hahah.

Ruffshod I am losing it. Westfield didn't win state in 04. That is the year their qb broke his ankle. My dad just corrected me on that. They went to state but lost.

Well................I am slowly moving around and trying to be a good sport and root for Pearland. It as taken me a few weeks to get over my depression and slowly come around but I did take the plunge and I put my little finger on the key and took Pearland on the poll this week. I feel I know Fozzy better than my own children as much as I've heard about him this year. I feel he should be a guest at our dinner table.

We are a good team and we'll see ya next year.....same results.....well.....don't think ruffshod, stang#1 fan, and all the others can go for that. GOOD LUCK THIS WEEK. YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN. AN OUT OF TOWN GAME, EXCITEMENT, AND A GREAT WIN I AM SURE. ENJOY YOUR YEARS IN SCHOOL. AS YOU CAN TELL WE ALL LOVED OURS AND STILL HAVE ALOT OF PRIDE IN OUR "SKOOL" AS STANGS #1 FAN CALLS IT.

So maybe the key to sucess for NS is to play Humble while going Undefeated. Everytime they have beatin Humble and gone Undefeated they have won State. See ya in the playoffs next year. (MEANT AS A JOKE)


And for the record...The 1995 Humble team would of burned NS. Saw both of them that year. Humble had superior talent that year. Just my opinion.(just an opinion)


Oh, who cares what your overall record is... Not putting anypoints on Humble 4 years in a row..Thats somthing i can be proud of.(meant to be funny)

It is beautiful! Almost every day when u go by the trophy case u c ppl stopping and looking @ it. There's this huge picture of the team that hangs above the case too! I also like to go in2 Johnny Carinos and Applebees and see the articles and plaques they have hanging on their walls. Talk about community pride!

[NSStangs#1fan]

Woodforest drugstore??? Mainbocher??? Man all I've ever know is uvalde, wallisvilles and Wdforest Blvd. Oh yeah and the Walgreens.:D

Looking @ our record and thinking about the 2001 loss I have a question b/c @ this time I wasn't in HS so I didn't keep up w/ the mustangs! Does the loss still sting as much now knowing that the Madison QB was VY??? That was 01 right?

Yippee...back up and running. I've missed everyone. Woodforest Drugs used to be up in the strip on Uvalde (I think HEB is the grocery store in the strip now). If you face HEB from Uvalde, WF drug was at the very end of the strip to the right. They had a small diner in there and served great food. That is who fed the team before they left for the games. They had gigantic french fries so all the kids loved eating there. When Ruffshod and I were growing up nothing past Lantern Lane existed in NS. We called it "the hills" in those days. It was nothing but gigantic hills of dirt that you could ride your bike down. Nothing went past Green Valley elementary either on WF Blvd. It was a dead end after GVE. My dad and I had breakfast with Coach Aymond yesterday and we talked about the Madison game but he didn't seem to say much about it. I think the Pearland game really hit him hard though. I think it hit all of us hard because we didn't really expect to lose to them.

Wow I live in what was that dead end! Well now most of the players, cheerleaders, fans and what not eat @ IHOP after the games! They expect the late crowd every Friday and sometimes the Srs. will surprise them on the TAKS days and go pile in b/c they don't have 2 take the test.

I don't think any1 expected us to lose to PL I know a lot of ppl decided to go ahead and go out of town b/c they figured it wouldn't be our last game. Boy did they do a nasty article in the skool paper about that 1.

I'm going to have to go to IHOP next year. Everyone says that's the fun place to go after the game. I usually just head back to LaPorte and stop in Deer Park to eat. Of course they don't like us walking in with our NS shirts on and they usually talk trash real loud about NS while we are eating but there isn't anything open in LP. I'd like to see that article. I bet there were some upset people. I know Westlake don't care for NS too much but I sure was pulling for them tonight. They gave SLC a little scare there for a while. I was really wanting them to win. I pulled for Cy Falls and Westlake today and dang both lost. Cedar Hill is awesome! I don't even know where they are in the state of Texas but they are incredible. I'm ready for next year. I asked Coach yesterday when our next state championship would be and he said next year. He is a hoot. What an awesome guy!

Deer Park always has something negative to say. Some1 got on the radio last yr. and said most of our players can't reed or right :rolleyes:.

The article basically said that the refs. reviewed the tape a few days after and saw that Proctor did infact step out of bounds but that the official that was supposed to be down there pulled a muscle in his leg. Then it went on to say how maybe it was just a coincidence that, that play was 1 of the few if not only play that didn't show upon the replay screen. I dunno but what's done is done! Well be back next yr!

As a teacher, I hate it when the kids get put down academically. There is only one poter on here that does that but he puts down everyone. Well I hope you get "your book" under the tree. Read it and enjoy it. You will finish it quick! The author really respects Coach and our program. You are right, what's done is done. They didn't get to state anyway.

[t00 playa]

Do you really REALLY want me to get into this? Because I have a lot to say about it........


Lets start with Galena Park ISD. You have NSHS, who is the golden child of the district. Nice new neighborhoods with big houses and tax revenues. Then you have GPHS, who is the step child that gets the shaft at everything. North Shore gets additions to make their school bigger, and GPHS gets the boundries redrawn to send more kids to North Shore.

Now, go ahead and respond about GP being landlocked and there isn't anything to can do about it... I'm listening. Now, ask Katy ISD what they did with the Mayde Creek campus and then come to me with that excuse.

Then there is their forever going on and on about how it's such a wonderful school district, they're exemplary (or were, until TAKS), yada yada yada. Wow, anyone can teach a kid to take a test just so the district looks good! Exposed with TAKS, though....

Then there is the whole being supported by La Porte ISD's Robin Hood money. Granted, they is nothing anyone can do about that, I still don't like the whole scheme. That's a whole other topic that I'll stay away from, though. Unless people really want my to disect Texas school funding, because I can and will.

And there, of course, there is North Shore High School itself. Well, being a Deer Park grad, you sorta get a bad taste in your mouth after seeing 3 overtime losses while going to school at Deer Park. This is probably where most of the animosity comes from, really.

And then there was the 2003 season. I remember sitting in the Alamodome with Westlake fans watching the Chaps get torn apart by North Shore. Then, after the game was over I remember how the North Shore fans treated the Westlake fans. It was the most terrible thing I've seen. Holding their "state bound" signs in Westlake fan's faces, and pointing and laughing. They have to have been the most ungraceful winners I have ever seen in my life. Probably because they had never been there before, and those people probably didn't know how to act.

Then there is the whole.. there is nothing unique about North Shore. The colors are red, the mascot is a mustang, and the fight song is pretty just ordinary. So, they don't earn any points in my book there like Churchill or Hays does.

But anyway, you asked and I told.

It is so good to see you on here...where have you been? I know CyFalls Mom has been asking about you. Regarding your post......boy do you read minds??? HAHA

[NSStangs#1fan]

U know I alwayz hear a lot of fans complain about our weak district but it's comments like that 1 that make the beatings oh so much more sweeter. But u know what I think Pasadena Memorial is a up and coming power! They had a good season this yr.! We might soon see the tables turn if Coach Aymond can't find some1 to put togeter a power offense to match the D. The D seems to be getting better every yr.

So MustangPround did Aymond say anything about leaving anytime soon???

man i put so much time and effort into reading and posting that my wife felt neglected.. so i told her that when shore was eliminated.. i would give her back some time by taking a mini "break" from posting and 5A.. i wanted to keep my word..so i did..and....was a busy last 3 weeks at work.... but im back....i dont know how i was able to not even take a peek on the boards... but anyway...

is it me or could we do much better on offense? i could not figure it out this year... we were horrid on offense...it was all coaching... because when you have an offensive line that averages close to 300lbs... a good sized speedy athletic QB... a couple of tremendous running backs....and at least one good sure handed reciever..... shouldnt you have more than 3 plays? i mean.. all teams had to do this year was put 8-9 in the box.. and there went our offense..and even then we didnt have any sort of offensive balance to open things up....it was just fizer QB keeps, gainous up the middle, and option.. thats it.. i bet that was 95% of our offense... it didnt take a defensive genius to figure out how to stop it.... last year pearland scored 21 on us as well.. but we had the offense to put up 52... this year.. we couldnt even muster up 14....

i think mcginty should be a welcome sight out there.. he throws well and.. runs decent...

what you all think?:eek:

I think they should start a Jr. quarterback and get him some experience going into his Sr. year. And that should get them far into the playoffs and possible a title run. That forumla worked with Reid. Start a Jr. every two years. I don't like that all our quarterbacks since 2003 have only played full time their Sr. year. And that experiment with Cain and Rutland alternating was no good.

Agreed we had too much talent this yr. to let it go to waste like that. The D seems to be consistent yr. after yr. I can't wait to c McGinty out there along w/ Matt Tolbert and Deaundre Jones! Hopefully next season we can get our70 and 0... with no close ones. Although DP, LP or PAMEM might put a stop to that assuming the districts don't get moved around.

But man if u stop and think about it the 05 team was really fierce it was just that darn WF that stood in our way. I think had we met them in a later round we would've taken it.As far as PL goes I don't htink NS will be overlooking them anymore (well @ least the kids @ skool) I know that both this yr and last yr. most students didn't worry about ole PLand b/c they figured it wouldn't be out last game... boy were we wrong.

I think he is happy where he is. I tell you he loves the boys alot and kids in general. You can see it on his face when he talks. I know the Pearland loss hit hard. I know it is in the past but that darned 95 touchdown still makes people sore. Even tonight on 55 they showed long run highlights. They showed the Pearland game and showed that run and then at the end the announcer said, "however, it was out of bounds."

You know #1 fan, the one that made that comment you just have to ignore. He's just plain rude. A very jealous person who seems to dislike everyone. Regarding Memorial.....were you at the game a couple of years ago when the score was 83 to 0. My dad and I got to sit in the press box because I was teacher of the year and they had a fish fry for us. It was a blast and incredible up there. The score though.....gosh I felt sorry for that team.

I am not a good like you "guys" about all the details but I think we are going to see a good qb in McGinty next year. At least he got some experience this year. I'm sure after the season this year they will make some changes. I don't think we will ever overlook PL again but they will come back with lots of talent next year. I'm glad Fozzy is gone like Westfield. I think we will be in the same district next year as this year but I can't remember what I heard. Maybe we could recruit some kids from Cedar Hill....haha...what do you think? Hey, did you get your book? If not let me know and you can read mine.

I'm glad you are back. My husband probably feels like your wife. He doesn't like football and my kids usually don't speak to me during football season because they go to LaPorte so it's just me and the cat sometimes. I've always got a NS jersey or shirt on and my daughter just walks by me and rolls her eyes. My dad is a dedicated fan so he is usually harrassing her as well. I asked her last night if she could go out for football so I could pay her Baylor tuition next year and she didn't find it too humorous. I told her I could transfer her to NS since I worked in the district and she could play for a winning team but she still didn't laugh. Just can't win around here.

Am I the only 1 who noticed our QB is alwayz either #14 or #12??? Just an observation.

[NSMustangProud]

Am I the only 1 who noticed our QB is alwayz either #14 or #12??? Just an observation.

Wow, good observation. Our qb even when I came through was #12. You know when I was in Scarlets I had to test on the boy's name, jersey number and position played. We tested on it for grades in drill team. I bet they don't have to do that now. To this day I can quote just about every guy and jersey number but can't remember all the positions.

Well as u can c the standards of the Scarlets have fallen, but I do believe that 4 most of them football season is their favorite time of yr.

As far as the jersey #s go I think it's a size thing.

This is off topic of our thread but I thought you and some of the others might be interested:

On January 13 beginning at 11:00 they are going to have the First Annual Inta Juice College Allstars classic at our field. It is just a showcase for those those to show off their talent to NFL scounts. If interested you can call 832-386-4330. I thought you and Ruffshod, NS Mustang and some of the others might want to know if you don't already. There is info on our district webpage.

oh.. and when i went through.. the scarlets were hot girls that could really dance..... now...... uhh.... there are only a relative few out of 60 it seems that could have survived back then...:eek:

Wow, I didn't know you worked for the district too. Are you a teacher? I go to the NS games and occassionally take my daughter to LP. LP isn't very good anymore so I only go when NS is off. My dad told me about the boards and I always watched but didn't speak. I'm not good at talking "football lingo" like you men are. I know the calls and the rules but not all the offense/defense line up up and do this and that like you guys do. I like talking to those who enjoy the team like I do though. My dad loves going to the games and still lives in NS so we make it every Friday night. I just hope we do well next year. I'm a little nervous about the team.

I'm about to call RIGHT NOW! Y is it @ our stadium though and not reliant??? THe tickets would cheaper.

Does any1 know if some1 from NS will bw playing????

[nsmustang]

Wow I live in what was that dead end! Well now most of the players, cheerleaders, fans and what not eat @ IHOP after the games! They expect the late crowd every Friday and sometimes the Srs. will surprise them on the TAKS days and go pile in b/c they don't have 2 take the test.

I don't think any1 expected us to lose to PL I know a lot of ppl decided to go ahead and go out of town b/c they figured it wouldn't be our last game. Boy did they do a nasty article in the skool paper about that 1.

Yep. Wdfst Blvd ran into the canal at the west end after it crossed Uvalde. There was nothing but woods and a a guy I went to school with had horses out there. NS was a big cowboy area back then. Uvalde was 2 lanes and ran into hwy 90. Wallisville rd was a 2 lane washboard shell road surrounded by woods. It is now 4 lanes of truck traffic.

As for the Pland game, NS climbed on them so fast at the start I believe they lost focus thinking they were going to beat them into the ground easily. As they say, on any given day.........

[nsmustang]

man i put so much time and effort into reading and posting that my wife felt neglected.. so i told her that when shore was eliminated.. i would give her back some time by taking a mini "break" from posting and 5A.. i wanted to keep my word..so i did..and....was a busy last 3 weeks at work.... but im back....i dont know how i was able to not even take a peek on the boards... but anyway...

is it me or could we do much better on offense? i could not figure it out this year... we were horrid on offense...it was all coaching... because when you have an offensive line that averages close to 300lbs... a good sized speedy athletic QB... a couple of tremendous running backs....and at least one good sure handed reciever..... shouldnt you have more than 3 plays? i mean.. all teams had to do this year was put 8-9 in the box.. and there went our offense..and even then we didnt have any sort of offensive balance to open things up....it was just fizer QB keeps, gainous up the middle, and option.. thats it.. i bet that was 95% of our offense... it didnt take a defensive genius to figure out how to stop it.... last year pearland scored 21 on us as well.. but we had the offense to put up 52... this year.. we couldnt even muster up 14....

i think mcginty should be a welcome sight out there.. he throws well and.. runs decent...

what you all think?:eek:

While it seems like all they do is run the back up the middle or the qb around the end, the lead draw was designed to give the qb several options on moving the ball. The problem comes in as with any team, when you don't have the players to execute almost perfectly. This system worked well in 03 due to the players in every position on the offense. The last 2 years we've had very good players in some positions,and not every position. We're all spoiled by Gaston, Cormeir and Reid at qb and keep looking for the next great one. I think that will happen any year now. Anyone got middle school info about that?

It wasn't the qbs so much, instead the beast back. Which we haven't had since McNeese. Couple that with the abandonment of the passing game, all of sudden you're one dimensional.

I've known about it for awhile now, and you know me. I don't miss too many opportunities to watch football.:D

[NSStangs#1fan]

Another thing was the SIZE of the 03 team. I was looking @ the roster on chron.com and the players have gotten smaller... a lot smaller. It looks like in 03 most of the boys...well men were over 6' now they fall somewhere in between 5'7 and 6'1. Just to compare QB to QB and RB to RB

1) Reid 6'4 220
2) Fizer 6'1 195

1) McNeese 6'2 225
2) Ganious 5'8 175

Quite a difference! Size was 1 of our biggest advs. in 03!

Here's the roster of the 03 team

Do any of you know how I can buy a DVD of the 2003 championship game? My dad has worn his VHS completely out. I bought him a DVD player and would like to get him a new DVD instead of using a VHS. I meant to ask Coach Aymond last week and forgot about it.

Ok, for all of you who have been on here for a while. Tell me....who is this Oktober character? It doesn't matter what thread you go on....heck you could go on a SLC thread and he'd be putting down NS about something. Is he a disgruntled GPISD ex employee? Did he have a dream to be a Mustang and couldn't make the roster? Does he have a team he likes or does he just hate everyone (but mostly NS). He makes smoke come out my ears!

He can't go on any thread without saying something bad about us. Ok, I'm calm now. He just irritates me. The more reason to beat them next year.

[NSStangs#1fan]

As the yrs. go by I get nervous for our team! I think we'll be good in a few yrs. though. Next yr. worries me a bit. Hope it's not to shakey. I dread the day when we lose our 10 & 0 (gulp).

i dont know what the deal is... hes usually ok and has pretty good points to add to discussions...but what i think is his issue is that ppl give NS too much credit than they are deserving... and that.. is just a matter of opinion... so.. he has his opinion.. no big deal.... dont let it bother you..:eek:

Yeah I know an the JV didn't do so hot this yr. Hopefully Aymond will have they well tuned by next season. I'll be away @ college so I'm gonna have 2 hear about the games from u guys!

Thw Woodz could take it from us too. I figure we'll be playing them 4 a while. Can u imagine the joy that any team will get to know they've take that away from us? It's what we use to survive from ring to ring :D!

They'll feel like they've won state.

I was doing some work on their press boxes last summer, and their boosters were tailgating at a scrimmage. I wore one of my caps, and they weren't happy about it. My co-worker got alot of laughs though.

What gets me about DP fans is all the years DP stepped on NS and no one gave it a second thought. Then when it turns around all of a sudden its a different story. I see a lot of envy in that guy's posts.
He wishes DP accomplished what NS has. Ns is just now getting their licks in on all the teams that used them as the doormat. Also, This may be the last year (07) that NS and TWHS meet. They arranged a 4 year schedule and this season will make the 4th year. TWHS is hard to beat at home. NS got out with a 7-6 win that last time. We'll see.

Do any of you know how I can buy a DVD of the 2003 championship game? My dad has worn his VHS completely out. I bought him a DVD player and would like to get him a new DVD instead of using a VHS. I meant to ask Coach Aymond last week and forgot about it.

Wow, it's good to see everyone on here. I thought Ruffshod and NS Mustang left us.

If you can't get one through Coach Aymond then you might try the library on Wallisville. I know my brother was living in Colorado at the time and he was able to get one from a library there so I would think you could get one from the library here.

Just think what TWHS could accomplish if they played like that every where. I think there's a good chance they might take it next yr. They have a lot of returning players and this 1 will be @ their house. I'm pretty confident in the O for next yr. ESPECIALLY if Deaundre learns to find the holes. I don't wanna say he's gonna be better than Chris just yet but I do believe he might be faster. W/ McGinty @ QB, Tolbert @ WR and Jones @ RB (plus I heard there was another fierce RB on JV) I think we should be good 2 go as long as we can get a solid line. The D is where I have question marks but they always seem to show up yr in and yr out!

OMG were you at that game? I will never forget it. I didn't sit down the entire game and both teams were playing for blood. I remember one of the coaches pulling one of our kids off the field by the facemask before he got into a fight. He had that kid by the face mask and was chewing him up and down and had that kids face going in 90 different directions while chewing on him. I knew the kid was wrong but boy the mother in me wanted to go out and slap the coach. I'd never make the mom of a football player.

As the yrs. go by I get nervous for our team! I think we'll be good in a few yrs. though. Next yr. worries me a bit. Hope it's not to shakey. I dread the day when we lose our 10 & 0 (gulp).

Oh we have to stay confident and keep winning to 100 and 0.

[NSStangs#1fan]

Maybe that's y our preseason schedule isn't too too tough! I think Aymond likes the 10-0 and until that's broken I think our reg. season will be fairly easy! After 03 and this season I think that tough pre-district scheldule is BS. We pretty much had the same schedule in 03 and we took the whole thing. TWHS (no matter how much I respect them. I even root 4 them unless playing us) had by far the toughest pre-district schedule and they took a 1st round exit against a team that was similar to us in many ways.

My mother would've sided with the coach.:D

Haha. I am all about discipline and I've always been one that told my kids they better show respect and my phone better not ever ring and the school on the other end, but if you could have seen this kid's head. I thought the coach was going to cause brain damage before he finished. My daughter and I just sat with our mouths open. Hmmm....have a 17 y/o right now that doesn't seem to listen at all times.....maybe a helmet and face mask is the answer.

That was how it was when I was a kid, and my kids live by that rule today. The schools need alot more of it. I wasn't at that aprticular game, so I don't know the circumstances. But, football is a physical game, and I'm sure the coach felt he had good reason for the reaction. We may never know. I'll bet that the coach and player still have a good relationship in spite of it.

[Big Daddy Cool]

I'm not sure which is worse watching a kid get his head jerked all around while getting a butt chewing or listening to Coach Chessier or Coach Johnson for those that remember him cause a kid to duck his head from a verbal whipping accompanyed by the breaking of the dry erase board. As was said above we as fans often don't always know all that is going on or being said. And its not like its just the other coaches doing it I've seen Aymond himself grab a hold of a kid and chew them out for a bone head mistake.

Well Chris seems to be getting plenty of offers but I almost feel bad 4 him. Was it just me or was he overshadowed but Fozzy and the all great 1 Sam??? I think he could give either a run for his money. Well we already saw him against Fozzy and from the box score it looked like he had a better game... but we all know how accurate the chronicle is. Thoughts??? Where do u think he'll do best???
